What does bolded mean?

This is in reference to the text inside the yellow star on the front of the 4th generation hang tag. Earlier tags have a bolder font that has rounded edges. The later 4th generation tags I do not indicate as bolded will have a lighter, non-bolded font with sharp 90-degree edges to each letter instead of rounded edges.
