Text Formatting ⇒ Bold faced Text in Math Environment

[august_month]

Hello Everyone,

I cannot get the following to work:

Code: Select all

$E[{\bf \theta}|X]$

My theta shows up as regular not bold. I attached the file.

I searched Google, but nothing so far. Any suggestions?

Regards,
Alex

One option:

Code: Select all

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{bm}

\begin{document}
$E[{\bm{\theta}}|X]$
\end{document}

Thank you, it worked!

P.S.

Last time I posted a question on this board, I had to check some box, when issue was resolved. I do not see this box now?

Hi,

you can do it by editing the first post (the question) and choosing the checkmark as topic icon.
