I submitted this to the forum several months ago and received several 
suggestions, however, either I was not clear in my request or I misunderstood 
the responses.  So I’m going to try again.

I want to embed printer commands in a text string in a report.  I’m attempting 
to create conversational text as the report is being printed and want to make 
selected names bold.  I know what names need to be bold however I don’t know 
how to make them bold.  I suspect some functionality of a rich text variable is 
the way to go but I don’t know how to do it.

One suggestion and example at that time was the R:Base License Agreement.  That 
was not useful because I’m not using a predefined text.  I’m creating text on 
the fly.  I’m printing a genealogy and I know how to construct the text string 
so that is NOT my problem.   The problem is how to make names bold or how to 
change font size as I construct the text.  Using variables and using ‘Shift’ 
and/or ‘Shift Relative to’ might also be the solution but I’ve not been able to 
make that work.

So I’m open to suggestions and would appreciate your help.
