Syntax
public class FontSize : DocUnit, IFontSize, IDocUnit

The point size text renders at, expressed the way PowerPoint stores it, is held by FontSize. It lets a run or a Font carry an exact size while keeping the underlying half-point representation out of everyday code.

HalfPoint, a nullable int, is the stored value: PowerPoint records font sizes in half-points, so a 12-point size is 24 half-points, and leaving it null means no explicit size is set. Most code never touches HalfPoint directly, because FontSize defines an implicit conversion from double, so assigning a plain point value like 18 produces the right FontSize for you. Building on DocUnit, it shares the unit-aware behavior of the library's other measurement types, which is why a size reads naturally as a number while the half-point detail stays internal. Assign a FontSize wherever a size is expected, typically the FontSize property of a Font, and the text renders at that size. To put it to work, style the text it applies to. The text styling workflow shows where size fits alongside typeface.

using IronPPT.Models;

FontSize size = 18;

The add text how-to adds and styles text on a slide, and the paragraph style example sets text styling.
