The following can be used as a workaround for this problem. Note that this problem affects ALL of the font-style buttons: BOLD, ITALICS, UNDERLINE
In the following workaround the pressing of [CTRL+B/I/U] is indicated by the brackets: [CTRL+B] bold is on [CTRL+B] bold is off [CTRL+B] bold fails to turn on. Highlight the offending word or phase and press [CTRL+B] again. This will cause the effect to work and 'resets' the problem, which will repeat the next time bold is turned off. This workaround is inconvenient but it does work. It will function for all of the font buttons. By the way, I received an update saying the bug was fixed.
