What are some potential challenges when using fpdf to display text with different colored words from a database?

When using fpdf to display text with different colored words from a database, a potential challenge is that fpdf does not natively support different colors for individual words in a text block. One way to solve this issue is to split the text into separate parts based on the color, create multiple text blocks with different colors, and then position them accordingly on the PDF document. 

// Sample code to display text with different colored words using fpdf

require('fpdf.php');

$pdf = new FPDF();
$pdf->AddPage();

$text = "This is a sample text with different colored words";
$words = explode(" ", $text);

$pdf->SetFont('Arial', '', 12);

foreach ($words as $word) {
    if ($word == "sample" || $word == "colored") {
        $pdf->SetTextColor(255, 0, 0); // Set color to red for specific words
    } else {
        $pdf->SetTextColor(0, 0, 0); // Set color to black for other words
    }

    $pdf->Cell(0, 10, $word, 0, 1);
}

$pdf->Output();
