I have an xslt sheet with some text similar to below:
<xsl:text>I am some text, and I want to be bold</xsl:text>
I would like some text to be bold, but this doesn't work.
<xsl:text>I am some text, and I want to be <strong>bold<strong></xsl:text>
The deprecated b tag doesn't work either. How do I format text within an xsl:text tag?

Definition and Usage. The <xsl:text> element is used to write literal text to the output. Tip: This element may contain literal text, entity references, and #PCDATA.
A CDATA element can be used to present formatted data or an XML document on its own. The problem is that the XSLT processor will normally strip any leading and trailing whitespace, as well as carriage returns from an output XML document – unless instructed otherwise…
The terminate attribute gives you the choice to either quit or continue the processing when an error occurs.
Include the attribute Method="text" on the xsl:output tag and include newlines in your literal content in the XSL at the appropriate points. If you prefer to keep the source code of your XSL tidy use the entity where you want a new line.
Try this:
<fo:inline font-weight="bold"><xsl:text>Bold text</xsl:text></fo:inline>
You don't. xsl:text can only contain text nodes and <strong> is an element node, not a string that starts with less-than character; XSLT is about creating node trees, not markup. So, you have to do
<xsl:text>I am some text, and I want to be </xsl:text>
<strong>bold<strong>
<xsl:text> </xsl:text>
