Apply style to a word in the middle of a string of text
posted

Is there a way to apply some sort of style or formatting to a single word, or group of words, inside of a larger string of text?  (like I just did)

    Take a look at the AddRichContent method off of an IText element.  Using this method will allow you to insert basic HTML tags around the words you want to format, such as:

    Report r = new Report();
    IText text = r.AddSection().AddText();
    text.AddRichContent("...a single <b><i>word,</i></b> or <b><u>group of words,</u></b>...");

    Keep in mind that if the font that you're using does not have bold versions built into the font, the bold formatting will be 'faked', which will not look the same; an example font that you would see this is MS Sans Sarif.
