How to make bold font in jasper report pdf?

UPDATED: 22 November 2015
Tags:
<textElement> tag along with <font> tag used to make staticText or textField content bold. Add following textElement block between starting tag of <staticText> or <textField> and ending tag of </staticText> or </textField> . 
<textElement markup="styled">
    <font size="20" isBold="true" pdfFontName="Helvetica-bold"/>
</textElement>
Will look like... 
<staticText>
    <reportElement x="235" y="0" width="92" height="26" uuid="3ed74d79-d31c-42ce-9af1-20ef78e0f6a1">
        <property name="com.jaspersoft.studio.unit.height" value="pixel"/>
        <property name="com.jaspersoft.studio.unit.width" value="pixel"/>
    </reportElement>
    <textElement markup="styled">
        <font size="20" isBold="true" pdfFontName="Helvetica-bold"/>
    </textElement>
    <text><![CDATA[Bold Title]]></text>
</staticText>
Note: <font> tag is deprecated and replaced by Font Extensions. Will write post on how to use Font Extensions to make font bold.
