Bold and non-bold text on the same line

Aspose.PDF Product Family

I have an ASP.NET 2.0 app using VB to create a PDF document using the API. I can not find any documentation which shows me how to write a line that contains both bold and non-bold text. All the documentation I see so far only show you how to write bolded text and non-bolded text on separate lines. Please help.

Hi,

Thank you for considering Aspose.

You can use multiple segments to attain your goal. Please refer to the following code:

Dim pdf1 As New Pdf()
Dim sec As Section = pdf1.Sections.Add()
Dim text As New Text()
sec.Paragraphs.Add(text)
Dim segment2 As Segment = text.Segments.Add("This is Bold ")
segment2.TextInfo.FontSize = 20
segment2.TextInfo.FontName = “Arial”
segment2.TextInfo.IsTrueTypeFontBold = True
Dim segment1 As Segment = text.Segments.Add("This is not Bold ")
segment1.TextInfo.FontSize = 20
segment1.TextInfo.FontName = “Arial”
pdf1.Save(“E:/AsposeTest/Bold.pdf”)

If you need more help, please do let us know.
Thanks.

How do I do this using the new DOM api (instead of generator)?

Hi Dirk,

Thanks for your inquiry. Please check the following code snippet for the purpose. Hopefully, it will help you to accomplish the task.

var doc = new Document();
var page = doc.Pages.Add();

Aspose.Pdf.Table
table = new Aspose.Pdf.Table();
Aspose.Pdf.Row
row = table.Rows.Add();
Aspose.Pdf.Cell
cell = row.Cells.Add();

TextSegment name = new
TextSegment("START");
name.TextState.FontSize = 13.5f;
name.TextState.FontStyle = Aspose.Pdf.Text.FontStyles.Bold;
name.TextState.ForegroundColor = Aspose.Pdf.Color.Yellow;

TextSegment rm = new
TextSegment("END");
rm.TextState.FontSize = 10f;
rm.TextState.FontStyle = Aspose.Pdf.Text.FontStyles.Italic;
rm.TextState.ForegroundColor = Aspose.Pdf.Color.Green;

TextFragment title = new
TextFragment();
title.Segments.Add(name);
title.Segments.Add(rm);
cell.Paragraphs.Add(title);
page.Paragraphs.Add(table);

doc.Save(myDir+"Different_textstates.pdf");
