The formatting information for characters, words or sentences. This information is used to override the paragraph default font and can be stored in the Character Catalog.
A character-format instance has these slots:
face, point-size, bold, italic, underline, color, same-face, same-point-size, same-bold, same-italic, same-underline, same-color.
These properties correspond to the multiple values returned by get-character-format. The first six properties take the same kinds of values as the same arguments to set-character-format, while the remaining same-foo properties are boolean values.
A character-format instance may be used to copy character-formatting from one place to another. Alternately, a set of several character formats may be managed in order to apply particular styles to various places in a rich-edit-pane.
When applying a character-format, the face of the text will be changed only if same-face is non-nil, and likewise for the other corresponding properties. Therefore, if a character-format retrieved from a section of text by calling character-format is applied to another section of text by calling (setf character-format), only those attributes that were uniform over the entire copied text will be changed in the target text. For example, if the copied text includes some bold text as well as some non-bold text, then the boldness of the target text will not change.

Character format is recommended when you bulk export data to a text file that is to be used in another program or when you bulk import data from a text file that is generated by another program.

Two things come to mind.
It could refer to what's more usually called character codes, which are numbers that a computer uses to identify characters in the different alphabets around the world.
More likely, you're talking about some sort of word processor or document creation system, in which case character format is the choice of typeface, weight (light, medium, bold, heavy), character size, color, and spacing between characters.
