By default, the font color of a word document is black. To achieve a more distinctive visual effect, we can change it to red, green or any other colors we like.
This article describes how to change word font color with Spire.Doc for WPF in C#, VB.NET.
At first, please download Spire.Doc and install it correctly, then add Spire.Doc. Wpf.dll and Spire.License.dll from the installation folder as reference.

Detail steps:
Use namespace:
using System.Drawing; using System.Windows; using Spire.Doc; using Spire.Doc.Documents;
Step 1: Initialize a new instance of Document class and load the sample document from file.
Document document = new Document(); document.LoadFromFile("Story.docx");
Step 2: Get its first section and first paragraph (the Title), then set text color for paragraph 1.
Section section = document.Sections[0]; Paragraph p1 = section.Paragraphs[0]; ParagraphStyle s1 = new ParagraphStyle(document); s1.Name = "TitleTextColor"; s1.CharacterFormat.TextColor = Color.RosyBrown; document.Styles.Add(s1); p1.ApplyStyle(s1.Name);
Step 3: Get the second paragraph and set text color for paragraph 2.
Paragraph p2 = section.Paragraphs[1]; ParagraphStyle s2 = new ParagraphStyle(document); s2.Name = "BodyTextColor"; s2.CharacterFormat.TextColor = Color.DarkBlue; document.Styles.Add(s2); p2.ApplyStyle(s2.Name);
Step 4: Save and launch the file.
document.SaveToFile("FontColor.docx", FileFormat.Docx); System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("FontColor.docx");
