            <label>This effect splits texts into different lines, words or letters.</label>
            <label>Doing so leads the text to lose a lot of its semantics. Only use this effect if
you know what you're doing!</label>
            <label>This extension can work with standard text elements, both SVG2 and SVG1.2 flowed text elements and 
manual kerns. It does not work for TextPath elements.</label>
            <label>Note that the extension only uses a very rough estimate of the position of each word/letter. 
            Text with different writing mode (e.g. tb-rl) is processed, but will be misaligned.
            Automatic line breaks in legacy flowtext (flowroot elements) are ignored.</label>
