Not sure why it didn't work in MacWrite or Word, but I do know that many
terminal emulators use this trick.  VersaTerm Pro has its Bold and about
8 or 9 sizes of a custom Courier (and a custom Monaco, now that I  think
or it).  MacTerminal also has Bold in its Resource Fork rahter  than  in
the System's.

I'm not sure if I ever tried this w/ MacWrite or Word, but I  have  done
it with some other programs.  It worked fine as I remember.
