Can I use OODoc to create a paragraph with a mix of bold and normal text?

I have a fairly complex Perl script that reads in data from an XML file
processes it and writes it to a text file. This works well. I now wish to
make some words bold, italic, superscript etc. On a Win32 platform I could
automate MSWord to do this but I would like it to be portable, so I would
prefer to produce an OOo document.

I have installed the OODoc module tested it. All fine

I have found the documentation sparse and confusing and cannot fathom how to
make it append formatted text to a paragraph. I want to say 'append this
string in bold', 'append this string in italics', 'append this string as a
superscript' etc. I assume I need to use the 'appendText' method with
appropriate options but I can't see an example of its usage.

Can suggest the syntax I need?

Would I be better off using RTF::Writer?

Dave
