Question: How to get ranged font styles from string cells?

[Andreas Schildbach <an...@4soft.de>]

Hello everybody,

I asked this question in poi-user, but nobody seemed to know an answer.
Could you help, please?

I need to read font styles (bold, superscript, subscript) from HSSFCells.

  HSSFFont font = workbook.getFontAt(cell.getCellStyle().getFontIndex());

returns the style that was set for the whole cell, but my workbook also
contains string cells that have certain styles applied only on specific
ranges of the cell's string value ("this text is in <b>bold</b> and this is
<i>italic</i>").

How can I read the information about these "ranged font styles"?

Best regards,

Andreas
