OpenXml - iterate through a paragraph's runs and find if a run has italic or bold text

Question

I am trying to iterate through paragraph runs, find if a run has italized/bold text and replace that text with something else.

Which is the best method in terms of performance.

If you are interested only in inline tags, the following code can help. Just change the Convert() method to whatever you want.

using System.Linq;
using DocumentFormat.OpenXml.Packaging;
using DocumentFormat.OpenXml.Wordprocessing;

class Program
{
    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        using (var doc = WordprocessingDocument.Open(@"c:\doc1.docx", true))
        {
            foreach (var paragraph in doc.MainDocumentPart.RootElement.Descendants<Paragraph>())
            {
                foreach (var run in paragraph.Elements<Run>())
                {
                    if (run.RunProperties != null &&
                        (run.RunProperties.Bold != null && (run.RunProperties.Bold.Val == null || run.RunProperties.Bold.Val) ||
                        run.RunProperties.Italic != null && (run.RunProperties.Italic.Val == null || run.RunProperties.Italic.Val)))
                        Process(run);
                }
            }
        }
    }

    static void Process(Run run)
    {
        string text = run.Elements<Text>().Aggregate("", (s, t) => s + t.Text);
        run.RemoveAllChildren<Text>();
        run.AppendChild(new Text(Convert(text)));

    }

    static string Convert(string text)
    {
        return text.ToUpper();
    }
}
