When you just use "Bold", that works, right?  The trouble
is that the color names and CSS color values are not valid
properties for [HTMLStyles].  Look at the last example in
par. 20.8, "Specifying text colors", for the right syntax, 
like this for red:

[Colors]
99 = ff0000

Then use in the marker:
  [HTMLStyles]=Bold Color99

That won't work at all, for lots of reasons.  ;-)
