## Attributes

`factor` (number, optional)
  Multiplier for the font size when reduce=fontsize. Default value: 0.9. That means the font size gets decreased by 0.9 until the text fits the objects width.
`fontfamily` (text, optional)
  The name of the fontface for text to be reduced. The default is “text” (lowercase t).
`maxwidth` (number or length, optional)
  Set the maximum width of the text if it cannot be deduced from the current surrounding (such as table cells).
`reduce` (optional)
  Reduce the text size if necessary.
  - `fontfit`: Reduces the text by scaling down the font size so the text exactly fits the available space.
  - `fontsize`: Reduces the text by decreasing the font size in steps.
  - `cut`: Inserts text given in the attribute text if the paragraph is too long.
  - `keeptogether`: Don’t allow a line break within NoBreak (default)
`text` (optional, since version 2.3.53)
  The text to be inserted if the paragraph should be cut. For example ‘…’
