Then I can start anew. I've never had an issue Word/HTML/ePub/KindlePreviewer-mobi with italics. But there's a bunch of tweaking of the HTML and ePub on the way to that final mobi!
Yes--I've seen that a few times, but I thought I might be wrong about this one because Chandler Design is using InDesign, which shouldn't use a non-existent or un-embedded font, if you see what I mean?
