How to change the font , color and size of a specific selected object text and body  in the DOORS formal module?

Let me know the DXL script for the same and I am using DOORS ver 9.5

I don't think what you're trying to do is supported. It may even be impossible.

If I understand you correctly, you want to arbitrarily change the typeface, font size and colour for selected text in an object.

DOORS has a global policy for text colour, typeface and size in Tools > Options (from the DOORS database window). You cannot change the display typeface or size arbitrarily in a DOORS module. Font colour can be modified by association with an enumerated attribute with associated colours (e.g. requirement status, where Approved = Green, Candidate = Orange, Rejected = Red), but this will set all of a specified column's text to a colour, not a selection of text from within an object.

Can you add some detail to your requirement? This might be achievable through rich text formatting and some sort of custom display (e.g. a canvas) or, if it's for export purposes, and you have Rational Publishing Engine, there may be an easier solution.
