Try to set a bold font as the default font with the NoSquint extension.

You can use the NoSquint extension to set font size (text/page zoom) and text color on web pages.

I didn't find a "Bold" button but when I increased the font size in 5% increments, the font changed to "Bold" when I got to 140%. That's a nice size for my eyes and I like it very much. Henry
