I create forms for our workers to use and one very demanding supervisor wants
all the check boxes to print bold. I have tried highlighting the check box
and hitting the B boldkey. I tried several different darker fonts. Not good
for me. Can anyone help me? Please??? =)

The only thing I can think to do, Teresa, is to make them bigger in font
size.

Try using the Arial Black font for the checkboxes is you are using
checkboxes from the Form toolbar or unicode checkboxes. There are a number
of ways to create and use clickable checkboxes in documents / templates.
Some require protected or locked forms, others do not. Take a look at the
Checkbox template available at
http://www.addbalance.com/word/downl...#CheckboxAddIn for an exploration
of these.

I tried that, it makes them bigger but not any darker. I tried using heavy
looking fonts also - just prints out regular print
