In summary, it is possible to make figure annotations even bolder by adjusting the font size, weight, or color of the text. This can be done in most image editing or presentation software, such as Photoshop or PowerPoint. Additionally, using a thicker or more pronounced line to outline the figure can also make the annotations stand out more. However, it is important to keep in mind that too much boldness may make the annotations appear cluttered or distracting. It is best to find a balance between making the annotations noticeable and maintaining the overall aesthetic of the figure.

Hi PF!

I'm trying to get the annotations for the plot save as bold. You can see the MATLAB window appears bold:
matlab_window.png

but the latex output is normal:

Is there a way to make annotations on figures even bolder than the standard bold setting?

Perhaps label them as \textbf{a} etc...

Oddly enough it started working on a different figure, so I copied that figure and pasted the plots on the other one...so problem fixed?

Will making my figure annotations bolder affect the clarity of my figure?
