-You can use Font Lock Mode (@pxref{Font Lock Mode}), to dynamically
-update @code{face} properties based on the contents of the text.

+Font Lock mode (@pxref{Font Lock Mode}) works in most buffers by

-The @code{font-lock-face} property is the same in all respects as the
-@code{face} property, but its state of activation is controlled by
-@code{font-lock-mode}.  This can be advantageous for special buffers
-which are not intended to be user-editable, or for static areas of
-text which are always fontified in the same way.

-Strictly speaking, @code{font-lock-face} is not a built-in text
-property; rather, it is implemented in Font Lock mode using
-@code{char-property-alias-alist}.  @xref{Examining Properties}.
+The @code{font-lock-face} property is equivalent to the @code{face}
+property when Font Lock mode is enabled.  When Font Lock mode is disabled,
+@code{font-lock-face} has no effect.
+
+The @code{font-lock-mode} property is useful for special modes that
+implement their own highlighting.  @xref{Precalculated Fontification}.
 
 This property is new in Emacs 22.1.
