Don't embed any fonts and see if the device renders italic (in the proper places )

If that works
You need a fresh (full sets) version of that font family member to embed. DO NOT subset
Embedded font family 'Georgia' and 'Subset embedded' fonts. These settings substantially reduced file size from 4mb for no font adjustment to 672k…still to big for 65 pages, but all font attributes work OK. Hard to believe this Nook app has trouble interpreting 'Times New Roman' font attributes- Don't know why? …Also tested embedded 'Times New Roman' - makes big files-1.1mb compared to Georgia- 672k and the font attributes were missing. So This embedding another font worked...the 'Subset embedded' also helped to reduced file size (but this is another issue).
