Create and use a template with a LinkedStyle style defined. You can use a linked style on both Paragraph and Text DOM objects.

Create a Template and Define the LinkedStyle

Create a new template and define a bold, blue LinkedStyle.

Import the DOM API namespace so that you do not have to use fully qualified names.

import mlreportgen.dom.*;
t = Template("myTemplate","pdf");
open(t);

Create a linked style.

linkedStyle = TemplateLinkedStyle("myLinkedStyle");

Define formats for the linked style.

linkedStyle.Formats = [Bold, Color("blue")];

Add style to the stylesheet.

addStyle(t.Stylesheet,linkedStyle);

Close the template.

close(t);

Use the Style From the Template

Create a new document from your template and apply the linked style to a paragraph and a text object.

Create a document using the generated template

d = Document("myDoc","pdf","myTemplate");
open(d);

Create a paragraph object.

para = Paragraph("example paragraph");

Set the style name.

para.StyleName = "myLinkedStyle";

Create a text object.

txt = Text("example text");

Set the style name.

txt.StyleName = "myLinkedStyle";

Add the paragraph and text to the document.
