The URL http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.1/interactive/notation.html lays
out the notation used in the rest of the book, but it appears to be out of
date with the stylesheet, as the differences noted in the subject apply.

Indeed. I've been wondering for a while why some things look so odd
with the new stylesheet, but that page really summarizes it quite well.
Someone on the web team should fix that.

Where are you seeing this? PDF, web version? An example?

I can confirm that this is messed up:

http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.2/static/notation.html

The word 'italic' is in bold. Would someone fix this?

It's still broken. Could someone from the web team fix this, or point
out where the source files are so someone else can fix it?

The stylesheet is where it has always been -
http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb/?p=pgweb.git;a=tree;f=media/css;h=ee7073d2e7e99fcf4dc09e4ff21ae8c6a21e15f2;hb=53cd5a83f519f64ba04d3bccc6b667e70850675d.
Most of the docs specific stuff is in
http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb/?p=pgweb.git;a=blob;f=media/css/docs.css;h=3b272f6979054d4a0fe6d217c1e90d286b7f81dc;hb=53cd5a83f519f64ba04d3bccc6b667e70850675d.

The other option would be to actually change the text for that page,
and keep the stylesheet. I think the stylesheet was originally adapted
to make it look better on the web - but that was long ago enough that
I don't remember it. It would be easy enough to override specifically
the notation.html file when the docs are loaded on the website.

Thom's the one who's been doing work on the CSS here most recently, so
he's probably the best one to give further pointers.
