| FontStyle | Gets or sets the flags indicating the desired or emulated style of the font. |
| ForeColor | Gets or sets the text foreground color. The default is black. |
| GlyphAdvanceFactor | Gets or sets the scaling factor for the glyph advance value relative to font's Average Character Width.
Valid values are from 0.5 up. The default is 1. |
| GlyphAdvanceOffset | Gets or sets the absolute increment (delta) for the glyph advance value, in graphic units. |
| GlyphWidths | Gets or sets the preferred glyph widths (generally used in CJKV fonts). |
| Hollow | Gets or sets a value indicating if the glyphs are hollow (outlined), otherwise they are solid.
The StrokePen property must be set in order to draw outlined glyphs. |

| SidewaysInVerticalText | Gets or sets a value indicating if all characters should appear as rotated 90 or -90 degrees in vertical text. |
| SkipNormalization | Gets or sets a value indicating whether the canonical decomposition, reordering, and composition stages should be omitted. |
| StrictCanonicalDecomposition | Gets or sets a value indicating whether to apply normalization to Singleton Decompositions and Post Composition Version precomposed characters.

It allows displaying several characters side-by-side horizontally in a vertical text. |
| TransformToFullWidth | Gets or sets a value indicating if ASCII characters should be transformed into fullwidth characters. |
| TransverseOffset | Gets or sets the offset of the text in the orthogonal direction, in graphic units.
The default is 0. |
| TreatHyphenMinusAsHyphen | Gets or sets a value indicating whether the character 'HYPHEN-MINUS' (U+002D) is treated as the character 'HYPHEN' (U+2010) by the Unicode line breaking algorithm. |

| UprightInVerticalText | Gets or sets a value indicating if the normally sideways characters should be drawn upright in vertical text. |

The default is true. This property affects text drawing on GcBitmapGraphics only. |
| UseHorizontalMetricsForVerticalText | Gets or sets a value indicating if the horizontal ascending, descending, and line gap settings should be applied to vertical text. The special vertical metrics are used by default. |
| UseTypoMetrics | Gets or sets a value indicating whether the typographical font metrics should be applied instead of Windows-specific and Apple-specific font metrics.
Font Ascender, Descender, and Line Gap are affected. |
| UseVerticalLineGapForSideways | Gets or sets a value indicating that for sideways text in vertical flow (see TextLayout.FlowDirection, line gap will be set according to Font.VerticalLineGap.
If false (the default), line gap for lines containing sideways text is set according to Font.HorizontalLineGap or Font.TypoLineGap, which can lead to different gaps between columns that contain sideways text runs and those that do not. |
