Hi Aaron,

Thanks for your message -- it is now clear why this happens, and that it
isn't an issue with org-mode.  I guess it's best to leave the org-mode
defaults as they are, but maybe this would be good information to add to the
documentation if it isn't already there -- that one can have something like

#+LATEX_HEADER: \usepackage{courier}

in their file (or the corresponding setting in their emacs config) in order
to ensure that bold fixed-width fonts work properly.

Regards,

Mark
