Get the Acronym entry in Glossary Bold

Post by ougka »

Hello,

I am using glossaries package to introduce acronyms in my report just fine. They are printed in style=super.

What I want to do is to get the label (abbreviation of the Acronym) in the Glossary page in bold format. I don't want to have it in bold in my text, neither in the abbreviated version, nor in the long version, just in the Glossary.

How do I achieve that?
Thanks a lot!

NEW: TikZ book now 40% off at Amazon.com for a short time.

And: Currently, Packt sells ebooks for $4.99 each if you buy 5 of their over 1000 ebooks. If you choose only a single one, $9.99. How about combining 3 LaTeX books with Python, gnuplot, mathplotlib, Matlab, ChatGPT or other AI books? Epub and PDF. Bundle (3 books, add more for higher discount): https://packt.link/MDH5p

The following should do it:

Code: Select all

\renewcommand{\glsnamefont}[1]{\textbf{#1}}
