title: How to set font weight to "bold" in gnuplot 5+ for SVG terminal?
body: <p>In gnuplot version 5+ (release candidate when this question was asked) the SVG terminal has the parameters <code>fname 'Arial'</code> and <code>fsize 15</code> (Arial with size 15, for example). The SVG terminal also supports enhanced text mode (sub and super scripts, font weight, etc.) for own text labels by saying something like <code>{/Arial:Bold=20 my text}</code>.</p>
  
  <p><strong>But how can I set the font weight globally, so that also the tick marks use it?</strong></p>
  
  <p>When I write <code>fname 'Arial:Bold'</code> into the terminal options, the produced SVG has <code>font-family="Arial:Bold"</code> and not <code>font-family="Arial" font-weight="Bold"</code></p>
