Pablo,
You might have a look at the following plugin:
Txtfmt (The Vim Highlighter)
http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=2208
Txtfmt can be used either as a standalone filetype, or in conjunction 
with other filetypes (e.g., Vim "help"), to beautify your documents with 
word processor style highlighting. Txtfmt allows you to create arbitrary 
regions involving any combination of bold, underline, italic, etc..., as 
well as both foreground and background colors. The following site 
contains screenshots. (Note that there are multiple tabs in addition to 
"Home": the "ywchaos", "Jnl and Txtfmt" and "ywtxt" tabs show Txtfmt 
regions supplementing the statically-defined regions of other 
wiki/journal filetypes.)
To use Txtfmt within a Vim help file, you would need to set the filetype 
to help.txtfmt. One way to do this would be with the following modeline:
vim:ft=help.txtfmt
If you decide to give it a try, there's a "Quick-Start Tutorial" on the 
download page that explains how to add the highlighting regions. Let me 
know if anything is unclear...
Sincerely,
Brett Stahlman
