text

Removes all fonts in text, or removes the font specified by fontName or the combination 

of fontName and fontScript. If you don’t specify a font, all of the text displays in the 

default font that was set in Layout mode for the field. When the font is specified by 
fontName or the combination of fontName and fontScript, only the specified font is 

removed from every portion of the text displayed in that font and these same portions of 
the text are then displayed in the field's default font.
Spellings for font names must be correct and are case-sensitive. Text formatting options 
will be lost if the data type that is returned is something other than text.
