SMART goals and bolding the first letter

How can I bold the first letter of a word please? I'm trying to do this -
  
````
- - *S*pecific -  You don’t want a vague goal. 
````

Its part of a section explaining SMART goals.

Any ideas please?    
  
Thanks
  Sharon.

I don’t know a pure org method, but if this is for LaTeX, you can use:

    @@latex:\textbf{@@S@@latex:}\nobreak\hspace{0pt}@@pecific.

(for the cleaner looking method: https://tex.stackexchange.com/a/267806 )

If this is HTML, you can CSS it:

#+html: <style>.first-letter-bold li::first-letter {font-weight: bold}</style>

#+attr_html: :class first-letter-bold
- Specific
- Measurable
- ...

See https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/::first-letter

Best wishes,
Arne

I think the usual approach is to use a zero width space.

See `Section 17.12 Escape Character` of the org manual.

Here is an example:

Type `*S*` then  `C-x 8 <RET> ZERO WIDTH SPACE <RET>` then `port`

On LaTeX export, this renders as 

`\textbf{S}​port`

HTH,
