Use Simple Attributes to change the text font and color. like

SimpleAttributeSet attrSet= new SimpleAttributeSet();
StyleConstants.setFontFamily(attrSet, "Courier New Italic");
StyleConstants.setForeground(attrSet, Color.BLUE);

textArea.getDocument().insertString(0, "Your text is here", attrSet);

and alternatively, you will get much more advantage and flexibility, if you use editor or text panes.
