Erin,

I may be missing something specific to your application, but for the R Journal, 
JSS and .Rd help files, package names would typically be bolded using a \pkg 
directive (eg. \pkg{YourPackageName}), which would bold the package name within 
the braces.

If you are doing this outside of those environments, you can duplicate the 
effect by using \textbf{YourPackageName}, which would bold the text within the 
braces only.

HTH,

Marc Schwartz
