Sigil & Embedded Fonts

I am attempting to embed the Charis font family in an epub. It's not really needed, more of an experiment.

Anyway I followed one of the threads on MobileRead but could not get the fonts to really work. I then came across this:
http://blog.threepress.org/2009/09/1...in-epub-files/

Which seemed to go into it a bit more.

The problem I am having is that I seem to be able to get the regular font version of Charis but I cannot seem to be able to enable the Italics font at least in book view in Sigil. It seems to be working in ADE & the epub viewer plugin for Firefox though it does not work in Calibre.

Should the embedded fonts show up properly in Sigil assuming I have done the coding properly and the fonts are in the right spot or is Sigil limited in this regard. Just wanting to know if I should continue to beat my head against the wall trying to figure out what is wrong.
