It is what is called the properties of the buffer.
You can indeed scan them and save them to reapply them later.
See text-properties-at and set-text-properties
buffer-substring returns a string with properties.
buffer-substring-no-properties returns a string without properties.
(list (text-properties-at 1)
(text-properties-at 20)
(buffer-substring 1 28))

(face message-header-newsgroups fontified t)

26 27 (fontified t)))
