Illustrator can make text bold, as well as many other text edits.
To bold certain text characters, select them with the Type tool in the Tools panel.
In the Options bar you can choose Bold.
That is one way to do it. There are other ways as well.

Yes, the lines do have to be joined to make a closed path.
Good for you for making it work.
I hope that joining the lines did not change the dimensions.

Starting with your design. I am using a simple shapes to represent your design:
If your design consists of multiple shapes like my example, then Group all of the shapes.
Draw the shape that you want to use for the clipping mask. The shape must be a closed path.
Position the clipping shape over your design. The clipping shape must be on top of the shapes being clipped.
Select everything -- the design and the clipping shape.
Then choose Object > Clipping Mask > Make.

When you say it isn't printing correctly, do you mean that the colors are not saturated enough or that the gradient is pixelated?

As Nancy suggested, resetting preferences may help.

That looks to me like it could be a screen abberation. Try zooming in or out and see if it goes away. You could also try choosing Preferences > Performance and turning on or off Use Graphics Processor. Or you may need to update your graphics processor.

It's possible to do a blend that would work, but I think that Ton's suggestion of using a custom gradient would give you more control.
Once to fill the shape with a custom gradient, you can add points, momve them around and assign a color to each point. This is the general idea:

Here are some things to check or try:
This can happen if your file has links to files or fonts that are missing (that the application can't find).
Another possibility is that the file is corrupt.
Check your operating system's file type associations.

100% zoom ratio is simply when you view the image at 100%. There are many ways to change zoom. One way is to choose 100% under the View menu.
The 'entire workspace' means a view of your image including any panels such as the Layers panel.

When a shape has no fill, it is essentially empty. Therefore, when you click inside the shape nothing is selected because nothing is there inside the shape. As Monika said, you need to click the edge of the shape in order to select it and move it.

I don't think that there is a way to automatically have a number box highighted when you open the Levels dialog box.
Instead of using the Tab key if you click on a triangle slider, it will highlight the corresponding number box.

Bobby is correct. And I want to clarify that you cannot run the two computers at the same time.
There's information about creative cloud for teams at https://www.adobe.com/creativecloud/business/teams.html?gclid=Cj0KCQjw16O_BhDNARIsAC3i2GBgi376c_Y63ECCsHjmlju3Ur-wCrU7NYquheipB2MCj6Lbi9TY_-MaAmwBEALw_wcB&sdid=65FN7K6C&mv=search&mv2=paidsearch&ef_id=Cj0KCQjw16O_BhDNARIsAC3i2GBgi376c_Y63ECCsHjmlju3Ur-wCrU7NYquheipB2MCj6Lbi9TY_-MaAmwBEALw_wcB:G:s&s_kwcid=AL!3085!3!692467750472!e!!g!!adobe%20creative%20cloud%20for%20teams!21070407814!161113494682&gad_source=1
