What replaces a piece in iText 7?

Trying to use iText 7 in java. You want the paragraph to appear in bold. Apparently, in previous releases, this was done by formatting the “pieces” separately, and then adding them to the paragraph. Apparently, "pieces" do not exist in iText 7. What is the procedure for iText 7?

Text in com.itextpdf.layout.element means an alternative for Chunk .

To make part of a paragraph bold, you will need a bold font, which will be specified for a piece of text.

 Paragraph p = new Paragraph(); p.add(new Text("this will be in bold").setFont(boldFont));

Alternatively, you can rely on iText to mimic the bold for a regular font, but this is not the preferred way.

 p.add(new Text("bold will be simulated for regular font").setBold());
