I created a test epub and font in normal or bold I get the looptail g, but in the italic form the opentail g is displayed.
This also effects the a [double-storey a and single-storey ɑ], likewise.
Is there any way to set the display for the reader?

Did you embed the Gentium font in italic, as well as bold and regular? You say that the regular and bold both work--which tells me that either:
- You're testing the ePUB on your own computer, in a desktop reader, and you have the Gentium font in bold and regular on your system, but not italic, or,
- You've embedded the Gentium bold and regular, but not italic.
- Is one of these correct?
How did you "call" the italic? In the CSS, that is? Are you sure that the italic face has the opentail?
