## Remarks

You do not create instances of the `Font` class directly. You just use `Font` to access the font properties of the various objects such as [`Run`](../run/), [`Paragraph`](../paragraph/), [`Style`](../style/), [`DocumentBuilder`](../documentbuilder/).

## Examples

Shows how to insert a string surrounded by a border into a document.

```csharp
Document doc = new Document();
DocumentBuilder builder = new DocumentBuilder(doc);

builder.Font.Border.Color = Color.Green;
builder.Font.Border.LineWidth = 2.5d;
builder.Font.Border.LineStyle = LineStyle.DashDotStroker;

builder.Write("Text surrounded by green border.");

doc.Save(ArtifactsDir + "Border.FontBorder.docx");
```

Shows how to format a run of text using its font property.

```csharp
Document doc = new Document();
Run run = new Run(doc, "Hello world!");

Aspose.Words.Font font = run.Font;
font.Name = "Courier New";
font.Size = 36;
font.HighlightColor = Color.Yellow;

doc.FirstSection.Body.FirstParagraph.AppendChild(run);
doc.Save(ArtifactsDir + "Font.CreateFormattedRun.docx");
```

Shows how to create and use a paragraph style with list formatting.

```csharp
Document doc = new Document();
DocumentBuilder builder = new DocumentBuilder(doc);

// Create a custom paragraph style.
Style style = doc.Styles.Add(StyleType.Paragraph, "MyStyle1");
style.Font.Size = 24;
style.Font.Name = "Verdana";
style.ParagraphFormat.SpaceAfter = 12;

// Create a list and make sure the paragraphs that use this style will use this list.
style.ListFormat.List = doc.Lists.Add(ListTemplate.BulletDefault);
style.ListFormat.ListLevelNumber = 0;

// Apply the paragraph style to the document builder's current paragraph, and then add some text.
builder.ParagraphFormat.Style = style;
builder.Writeln("Hello World: MyStyle1, bulleted list.");

// Change the document builder's style to one that has no list formatting and write another paragraph.
builder.ParagraphFormat.Style = doc.Styles["Normal"];
builder.Writeln("Hello World: Normal.");

builder.Document.Save(ArtifactsDir + "Styles.ParagraphStyleBulletedList.docx");
```
