Hi,

Microsoft TrueType fonts don't contain Asian glyphs in bold. Word does
some internal tricks to display bold text, but that's a Microsoft
secret.

You need a third party font that has bold/italics glyphs. I can't
recommend any font right now, but if you find a good one please let me
know. I need good Chinese and Korean fonts with bold and italics.

Regards,
Rodolfo
