Hi,
I’m creating a new Document object using the Document(Stream, LoadOptions) constructor. The stream I pass as an argument contains plain text. I save it as an RTF and I noticed the result document uses the “Courier New” font. I want a different font used and I’ve read on the forum, at least for Java, that setting the Normal style for the created Document should do the trick. However, in my case it appears to be read-only.
1) Is there a simpler way to change the font of the entire document than using a FontChanger as a DocumentVisitor?
2) How is the default font chosen for the document, if I don’t specify it in any way?
Thanks,
Or

Hi there,
Thanks
for your inquiry.
There is no other way to change the font of TXT file. Once you have loaded your text file into Aspose.Words DOM, you can change the font of entire document by using FontChanger, DocumentVisitor or changing the style of each paragraph. Please check the following code example.
for your inquiry.

Please note that Aspose.Words mimics the same
behavior as MS Word do. If you open your text file in MS Word, you will get the same output.
Moreover, please read supported features of plain text (txt) import/export from here:
