Bug Description

Epub files created using an updated Adobe Indesign CS 5.5 and edited in Sigil (0.4.2) do not show any italics when opened in Calibre reader (0.8.24). Yet they look good in Digital Editions (1.7.2.1131). The appropriate italic font (Georgian italics) is embedded and reachable in CSS paragraph style. (Running on Windows 7) (Cannot attach - sensitive info)

The calibre viewer has a limitation when embedding font families that use the
same name for all variants. This limitation is in the QtWebKit library calibre
uses and cannot be fixed until Nokia releases a fix for it.
