/** Some helpers for converting model strings to view strings.

    A paragraph string does not have its fields expanded, i.e., they are
    represented by a special character inside the string with an additional
    attribute assigned to it. For some tasks (e.g., SmartTags) it is required
    to expand the fields to get the string as it appears in the view. Two
    helper functions are provided to convert model positions to view positions
    and vice versa.
*/

        map. The first value of the ConversionMapEntry points to the field
        position in the model string, the second value points to the associated
        position in the view string. The last entry in the conversion map
        denotes the lengths of the model resp. view string.

            nPos denotes a position in the model string which should be

            not supported, therefore nPos is not of type ModelPosition.
