Here at CWP, we have defined these two commands to permit
users to have \mathbold characters for both \normalsize
and a smaller size for sub and superscripts..


% define: \fat to make \mathbold  \normalsize characters
\newcommand{\fat}[1]{\mbox{\protect\boldmath$#1$}}

% define:  \sfat  bold \small characters
\newcommand{\sfat}[1]{\mbox{\footnotesize\protect\boldmath$#1$\normalsize} 
}

Example:
\[     \fat{\beta} = f ( \fat{x} ) e^{\sfat{y}} \]

Here, the "\beta" and "x" are normalsize bold math italic
and the "y" is \footnotesize bold math italic. Hope this helps.
