Set Font Emphasis Mark

Introduction

In today’s tutorial, we’re diving into how to set font emphasis marks in a Word document using Aspose.Words for .NET. Whether you’re looking to underline specific text with a unique mark or simply make certain words stand out, this guide has got you covered. So, buckle up and let’s get started!

Prerequisites

Before we dive into the nitty-gritty details, make sure you have the following prerequisites checked off:

  • Aspose.Words for .NET Library: Ensure you have the Aspose.Words for .NET library installed. You can download it from here.
  • Development Environment: A working development environment such as Visual Studio.
  • .NET Framework: Ensure you have the .NET Framework installed.

Import Namespaces

To work with Aspose.Words for .NET, you’ll need to import the necessary namespaces. Add these at the top of your code file:

using Aspose.Words;
using Aspose.Words.Fonts;

Now, let’s break down the process into simple steps. Follow each step carefully to set font emphasis marks in your Word document.

Step 1: Initialize Document and DocumentBuilder

First things first, you need to initialize a new document and a DocumentBuilder. The DocumentBuilder class provides methods to insert text and other elements into the document.

// Path to your document directory 
string dataDir = "YOUR DOCUMENT DIRECTORY";

// Initialize a new Document
Document document = new Document();

// Initialize DocumentBuilder with the document
DocumentBuilder builder = new DocumentBuilder(document);

Step 2: Set Font Emphasis Mark

With the DocumentBuilder ready, you can now set the font emphasis mark. In this example, we’ll use the “UnderSolidCircle” emphasis mark.

// Set the font emphasis mark
builder.Font.EmphasisMark = EmphasisMark.UnderSolidCircle;

// Write text with the emphasis mark
builder.Write("Emphasis text");
builder.Writeln();

Step 3: Clear Formatting and Add Regular Text

After setting the emphasis mark, you might want to add some regular text without any emphasis. For that, you need to clear the formatting.

// Clear the font formatting
builder.Font.ClearFormatting();

// Write regular text
builder.Write("Simple text");

Step 4: Save the Document

Once you’ve added all the text and formatting you need, the final step is to save the document. Specify the path and filename where you want to save your document.

// Save the document
document.Save(dataDir + "WorkingWithFonts.SetFontEmphasisMark.docx");

Conclusion

And there you have it! Setting font emphasis marks in a Word document using Aspose.Words for .NET is as simple as that. With just a few lines of code, you can make your text stand out and add a professional touch to your documents. Don’t hesitate to experiment with different emphasis marks and styles to suit your needs.
