A method is provided for emboldening a bitmap character, which includes using a bitmap for a character to be emboldened and selectively turning on pixels of the bitmap of the character, which are initially off, based on whether the pixels are immediately adjacent to an initially off pixel. The bitmap character to be emboldened can either be an embedded font character or the character can be generated from a glyph stroke or outline which is scaled to a desired size. The method is applied to all base pixels which form the character until the entire character is emboldened.
