The short answer is, you can't. Not with a spellcheck dictionary anyway. Spellcheck Replace doesn't differentiate between font-variants. And it's not intended to alter the formatting of the found word. Replacing misspelled words with Spellcheck deals with spelling only. Formatting doesn't enter into it.

You'll have to italicize them manually, or with a standard find and replace action (regex or otherwise).
