Dim fonts As List(Of Font) = doc.Descendants("text").Select(Function(x) New Font() With { _
.fill = CType(x.Attribute("fill"), String),
.fontFamily = CType(x.Attribute("font-family"), String),
.size = CType(x.Attribute("font-size"), Integer?),
.x = CType(x.Attribute("x"), Integer?),
.y = CType(x.Attribute("y"), Integer?),
.value = CType(x, String),
.element = x
}).ToList()
For i = fonts.Count - 1 To 0 Step -1
If Not Integer.TryParse(fonts(i).value, value) Then
