@tohecz Your answer seems to be what's needed here. – egreg Mar 22 '12 at 21:01
what package and document class are you using? (minimal working example would help.) – barbara beeton Mar 22 '12 at 21:05
Please see the answer that egreg linked to in his comment. – Gonzalo Medina Mar 22 '12 at 21:17

@71GA: use the optional argument of \acro: something like \acro{PCB}[\textit{PCB}]{Printed Circuit Board}. – Gonzalo Medina Mar 22 '12 at 21:23
@Gonzalo Medina It worked like a charm thank you. – 71GA Mar 22 '12 at 21:24
