Autonumber font not the same as the font set in the style

I've just updated to Office 2013. I formatted a style "Appendix,"  which shows autonumbering as "Appendix A" followed by a tab. (style was already in document, so probably wasn't created office 2013). I changed the font & size for the style and made it bold. The autonumber shows the updated font and size, but won't take the bold attribute. The multilevel lists don't show the current list as a list style, so I can't modify it.

 I've tried bolding the entire paragraph, but the number still doesn't bold. What else can I try?

 

Thanks!

Debbie

You can click the outline number directly; Word selects all list items at that level. Then apply bold formatting, for example by using the Ctrl+B shortcut.
