Hi. I need to retrieve some text descriptions for some code values. When I
add this text to the PDF, it has to retain the correct format. So some words
need to be bold, some italic, etc. 

How would you do this? How would you store the text in the look-up table?
How would  you parse the text and switch bold on/off?

I assume the normal way to do this would be to have several chunks or
phrases with different fonts and then add them together to make a paragraph.
But I want to store the text outside of the code so that other programs can
access it.
