10.5.18 @charoff Table Character Offset (NISO JATS table model)

Horizontal offset from the alignment character specified by the @char attribute; the percent of the current column width to the left of the (left edge of the) alignment character. (This attribute is based on and intended to be converted easily to the XHMTL charoff attribute.)

In elements <col>, <colgroup>, <tbody>, <td>, <tfoot>, <th>, <thead>, and <tr>, this attribute may be used if the element is used.
Value Meaning
Number Where to set the alignment. Although this Tag Set can enforce only that this attribute contain any characters, validation beyond the DTD (for example, schema validation or Schematron validation) can constrain this value to a counting number (positive integer).
