(Speaking generally) XML files don't store formatting information.

You can confirm this by opening your XML in a text editor and searching for font names.

When you open the XML file, the formatting is applied via a structured application. If you're not getting appropriate formatting you'll need to adjust your structured application or the resources on your computer.
