prefix or suffix in bold?

Is it possible to make suffixes and prefixes bold?

Example New Phytologist style:

<text macro="author" suffix="." font-weight="bold"/>
Makes the author bold but the period (suffix) should also be bold. Is this possible?

The easiest way to do this is probably to wrap the text element in a group element, and set the font-weight to bold for the group, e.g.:

<group font-weight="bold">
  <text macro="author" suffix="." />
</group>

Thanks but it don't seem to work. I've also tried to make to separate groups for author and year

Here's the style

The style validates, and everything seems to be in order, apart from one small point. You're using font-weight="bold" on the name node, as well as on the group wrapper. Try removing it from the name node; the processor might (might -- I haven't checked recently, and I don't remember the exact behavior) flip back into non-bold typeface for the author name when it hit a boldface request inside another boldface request. (That's assuming Zotero 2.1.)
