Here... you may not like it, but it works. Create a little setfont.prg and keep it in your path:

LPARAMETERS lcName, lnSize, lcStyle
*[2014/11/25 22:49] nDragan - the quick and dirty way to switch font in the middle of something.
* dirty, as screen font properties aren't reset.

IF !empty(lcName)
	_screen.FontName=lcName
ENDIF

IF !empty(lnSize)
	_screen.FontSize=lnSize
ENDIF

lcStyle=upper(evl(lcStyle, ""))

_screen.FontBold="B"$lcstyle

_screen.FontItalic="I"$lcStyle

RETURN ""

Then your command becomes

?setfont("Georgia",12, "")+"Part one", setfont("Tahoma",16, "I")+" Part two."
