Coloured and bold monospaced text

Question

I want to add bold and/or coloured text and/or background highlighting to sections of a page that are in a monospaced font. How can I do this?

I saw one answer that mentioned CSS, but I don't do CSS.

I want to make some paragraphs appear in a monospaced font and be able to enbolden, colour, highlight, or italicise words in that monospaced paragraph.

Currently monospacing or preformatting text stops me from being able to further modify it.

Thanks.

Hi Donald,

I've written an article with an example for a user macro. It's another usecase, but maybe it helps you getting started with user macros: https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Confluence-articles/The-Admin-s-tale-User-Macro-filtering-a-Confluence-table/ba-p/459369

Thanks Thomas, I used the work-around of cut-n-pasting from a code block found in one of the answers your link points to, but it is hit-n-miss with several steps and I and other members of my team are still looking for something easier...
