I am using uarial for typesetting my document in Arial, but I found that there's no bold font. How can I have a boldface font with the uarial package?

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{uarial}
\renewcommand\familydefault{\sfdefault}
 \begin{document}
 \textbf{sample data}
 \end{document}

You did not provide a minimal working example (MWE). So I guess, you forgot to set the font encoding to “T1”, cf. Herbert’s answer. – Speravir Feb 19 at 15:15

This question is unlikely to help any future visitors; it is only relevant to a small geographic area, a specific moment in time, or an extraordinarily narrow situation that is not generally applicable to the worldwide audience of the internet. For help making this question more broadly applicable, see the FAQ.

I cannot see it:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage{uarial}
\renewcommand\familydefault{\sfdefault}
\begin{document}

foo \textbf{bar}

\end{document}
