// Demonstrates the basics of character formatting in DsPdf.
//
// Character formatting in DsPdf is done via GrapeCity.Documents.Text.TextFormat class.
// An instance of that class with the required formatting options
// is passed to most text rendering methods available in DsPdf (e.g. DrawString).
// Rendering text with different character formatting in the same paragraph
// is done by using TextLayout/DrawTextLayout.
// See also TextRendering, MultiFormattedText, ParagraphAlign,
// ParagraphFormatting, TextAlign.
