Make part of a text line bold in script

[Minimuscle]

I have a script that changes the text of a card in photoshop. I am trying to get it so that certain parts, say from characters "8" to "36" are BOLD, and the rest are not. Is this something I can do? 

Example:

Material: A small morsel of food

becomes

Material: A small morsel of food

Sometimes this will be in the middle of a block of text however.

@Minimuscle,

RE: "I have a script that changes the text of a card in photoshop"

Can you post the script that you have along with a sample/test file?

This is possible, but requires a lot of action manager code. I had a coworker who did that, but I no longer have the code. My suggestion would be to use scriptListener to record some text with the formatting you have in mind, then look at the code to see where you can swap the hard code for variables. Text code is really long!
