I am in need of boldface greeks to represent vectors. Is this hard to
achieve?
In LaTeX I use (Warning, Poor Man's bold is not very pretty):
%
\newcommand{\pmb}[1]{%
\setbox0=\hbox{#1}%
\kern-.02em\copy0\kern-\wd0
\kern+.04em\copy0\kern-\wd0
\kern-.02em\raise.0217em\box0}
%
\newcommand{\vek}[1]{
\mathchoice{\mbox{\boldmath$#1$}}%
{\mbox{\boldmath$#1$}}%
{\pmb{$\scriptstyle#1$}}%
{\pmb{$\scriptscriptstyle#1$}}}
%
