No 'bold' text while generating pdf

Hello,

I have a problem with generating bold text in pdf files. It does show in preview (vscode, firefox plugin), but after generating pdf file using asciidoctor, there are no bold texts anywhere (table headers, text). Is there any way to diagnose it?

Source:

== Header

*Title*

My *text* here

.Sample table
[options="headers,autowidth",frame="topbot",grid="all",cols="s,"]
|===
|Parameter|Value
|City|Warsaw
|Name|Krzysztof
|===

PDF:



I use Asciidoctor 2.0.12 and ruby 2.7.2p137

Best regards,
Krzysztof

I tested with asciidoctor-pdf (1.5.4) and worked fine. Which version are you running?

This is my command
 $ asciidoctor -r asciidoctor-pdf -b pdf pdf.adoc


EDIT: I suspect you are replacing the fonts? Maybe the bold font is not setup?

I was using this command:

asciidoctor-pdf sample.adoc

I found it somewhere in a doc, but can't tell where. When I switched to...

asciidoctor -r asciidoctor-pdf -b pdf sample.adoc

...it works.

I also found a second problem with my font, it was not generating bold after all. Now, it's OK.

Thanks :-)
