# Draw Text Using Glyphs
This topic explains how to use the low-level <xref:System.Windows.Documents.Glyphs> object to display text in Extensible Application Markup Language (XAML).
## Example
The following examples show how to define properties for a <xref:System.Windows.Documents.Glyphs> object in XAML. The examples assume that the Arial, Courier New, and Times New Roman fonts are installed in the C:\WINDOWS\Fonts folder on the local computer.
