Why don't you just redirect the output that you want in the text file into the text file?
Because it is the idea to copy that (special) format of text in a application GUI ... so putting it in a variable is not helping me to solve the problem.

doc::lua-oocairo-fontopt(3) Lua OO Cairo binding doc::lua-oocairo-fontopt(3)
Name
lua-oocairo-fontopt - options controlling text rendering
Introduction
A font options object contains options that tell Cairo how to render text on surfaces. They can be created with the "font_options_create"
function in the main oocairo module (see lua-oocairo(3)), and retrieved from scaled fonts or context objects with "get_font_options"
methods.
Font options objects can be compared with the "==" operator. Two different objects with the same options set will be considered equal.
Methods
The following methods are available on font options objects:
opt:copy ()
Returns a new font options object, with identical options to opt. The two objects will be completely independent, so you can set them
to have different options.
opt:get_antialias ()
Get the current antialiasing mode, which will be one of the strings accepted by the "opt:set_antialias()" method.
opt:get_hint_metrics ()
Returns the current hint metrics option, which will be one of the same strings accepted by the "opt:set_hint_metrics()" method.
opt:get_hint_style ()
Get the kind of font hinting done when rendering text. Returns one of the strings accepted by the "opt:set_hint_style()" method.
opt:get_subpixel_order ()
Returns the current ordering of colour components in pixels used for subpixel rendering, which will be one of the same strings accepted
by the "opt:set_subpixel_order()" method.
opt:hash ()
Return a number which can be used as a hash key identifying the particular options in opt. That is, if you wanted to cache fonts
according to the options set on them, you could store them in a table with this hash value as the key. Two font options objects with
the same options will have the same hash value.
opt:merge (srcopt)
Add any options which are set to a non-default value in srcopt to opt if that still has the default value from them. The options in
srcopt will be unchanged. Nothing is returned.
opt:set_antialias (antialiastype)
Set the antialiasing mode used for drawing. The argument must be a string or boolean value accepted by the "set_antialias" method on
context objects (see lua-oocairo-context(3)).
opt:set_hint_metrics (hintmetrics)
Set the kind of hinting to be applied to the metrics, as opposed to outlines, of the glyphs in a font. The hintmetrics value must be
one of the following strings:
default
off
on
opt:set_hint_style (hintstyle)
Set the kind of font hinting done when rendering text. The hintstyle value must be one of the following strings:
default
none
slight
medium
full
opt:set_subpixel_order (order)
Used to inform Cairo of the arrangement of colour components in the pixels of a display device like a monitor. Only applies if
subpixel antialiasing is used. The order value must be one of the following strings:
default
rgb
bgr
vrgb
vbgr
The last two options refer to vertical arrangements of colours.
