Does anyone know what's the problem?
Thanks.
You are resurrecting a two years old thread concerning a different problem from the one you're having, which is well known, so many experts will probably skip it. It's a lot better to make a new thread with a descriptive subject.

As to your problem I would guess that your @font-face declarations don't point to the right font files, or that the Kindle ignores them. Does the epub validate in Sigil? Are you sure that the correct font face (non-italic) is used on the Kindle?

If none of those are the problem you need to post the epub here. If it's copyrighted you can make a minimal epub which exhibits the problem and post that instead. Just delete most of your content, and add a few lines with different font-styles in them. I could inspect the epub for obvious problems, but as I don't use a physical Kindle I could not test it for you.
