Not exactly sure what you are asking. Do you want all text in a tree /
table to be bold or just certain tree elements or columns?

If you want all the text to be bold it is as simple as creating a bold
font (be sure to dispose if it when done) and setting that font to the
tree or table.

If you want to do just one row / column or certain element then I am not
sure but I would guess a simple web search will find the answer as I
know I have read others asking about settings colors for a specific cell
and I assume the font manipulation would be very similar.

Yes, with SWT's TreeItem or TableItem, I can choose the fonts for the
label. Ok, it's not the ILabelProvider, but the TreeItem or TableItem.
Somehow, I must get the TreeItem/TableItem from the ContentProvider
and set the font accordingly.

Make your label provider implement ITableFontProvider as well.
