BOLD

Causes the string or number to print in bold type.

For HP LaserJets, the appropriate boldface font must be loaded in the printer.

For PostScript printers, the appropriate boldface must be defined in the PostScript startup file, POSTSCRI.STR. See Table 32, DECLARE-PRINTER Command Arguments for information on which fonts you can bold.

For line printers, when DECLARE‑PRINTER uses the BEFORE-BOLD and AFTER-BOLD arguments, the specified strings are added before and after the data to bold. If BEFORE-BOLD and AFTER-BOLD are not specified, then BOLD has no effect.

For example:

print &name (+1, 20) bold
print 'Your account is in arrears' (1,1)  bold
