Why not havea script triggered  by the enter key, such as

on enterInField
    get the selectedtext of me
    set textfont of it to <font name>
    set textcolor of it to <color name or the corresponding of  3 digits>
    set textstyle of it to "bold"
end enterInField

(To be put int the script of the field you want to modify)
