this may be a problem with the rendering of text onscreen. In particular I notice that Bitstream Vera Charter (which was the default font when I first installed OOo) Bold does not look any different ONSCREEN than the non-bold. Try changing the font, e.g. to Times, see if that helps. If that solves your problem, then you just need to switch your default font to something that displays properly. If you really like charter and want to keep it as your default, than that demands a proper fix I unfortunatley am not competent to tell you how to arrange. g'luck! matt -------------------------- .''`.
