'bold characters' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I can't tell whether this works.

'readers wanting english changed' is the wordplay.
'wanting' is a deletion indicator (to want something can mean to lack it or need it).
'english' becomes 'E' (abbreviation).
'changed' indicates an anagram.
'readers' with 'e' removed is 'raders'.
'raders' anagrammed gives 'DARERS'.

'in' acts as a link.
