Change font of String.

[TGJ]

Hello,

My java application writes text to a file. I would like to change the font of certain strings but I am not sure how this is done. Any ideas?

Thanks.

Which format of text-file?

The solution is different for OpenOffice-Writer and for html-files.
For some editors with syntax-highlightening, you have to modify the syntax-files and so on...

Just a txt file.

What tool do you use to show the txt-file?
All txt-files I have seen so far didn't allow to specify a certain font - not even a single font, not to mention different fonts.

I am using ms excel to open it.

Excel has widely been known as spreadsheet program, not as textprocessing.
Most people open .xls-files with excel, but it possible to open html-files and csv-files, which both aren't binary.

You could have a look at the apache-hsf project, which is dealing with excel.

I just thought there might be a simple way to change the font or to make text bold, or italicized.

So it is in fact a CSV-File?

Without information we have to guess.

It is a tab-delimited file.

Well - long way, short answer: It's not possible.
