I'd rather not scramble the copyright of any of the books, but you could try downloading a Dutch Kobo Plus title, if you have the appropriate account. For example, Mythos, by Stephen Fry. The last two words of page 3 (about Stephen Fry) are italicized (Fry Kronieken), but only when the Publisher default font is chosen (again, we're talking the Dutch edition).

I have to confess however that in my search for proper examples, it turned out that certainly not all of the Dutch publications refuse to display italics in other fonts. The fact that nevertheless quite a lot of them still do, may be something that I'll have to live with. Not a big deal, by the way.
