Bold math has "ghosting"

Post by jaybz »

When I try to use bold math I'm getting a weird "ghosting" affect.

Code: Select all

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{amsmath}

\begin{document}
\begin{Huge}
\begin{align*}
\displaystyle x &= 0\\
 \pmb{x} &= \pmb{0} \\
\end{align*}
\end{Huge}
\end{document}

Try the bm (bold math) package.

Code: Select all

\documentclass[11pt,a4paper]{article}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage{mathtools}       % loads »amsmath«
\usepackage{bm}

\begin{document}
  \begin{align*}
    x &= 0 \\
    \bm{x} &= \bm{0}
  \end{align*}
\end{document}
