Format text
You can use the Font properties in Blend for Visual Studio 2012 to format the text in your application. If you use a RichTextBox, TextBlock, or FlowDocumentScrollViewer object, you can selectively apply formatting to particular words or characters in the object. With all other text object types, the formatting properties that you set will affect all text in the object.
[!REMARQUE]
You cannot animate the properties under Text in the Properties panel except for the FontSize property. If you animate the FontSize property, you must set the property for the whole object (in other words, you cannot animate the FontSize property when you are in text-editing mode).
To set font properties
Select the text object that contains the text that you want to format, by using either the Selection tool

.To format only part of the text in a TextBlock or RichTextBox object, right-click the object, click Edit Text, and then drag the pointer to select the text that you want to format. Otherwise, continue to the next step.
