Sorry; I intended to mention that...

I am using Cool Reader and the Amazon Kindle app.

Like I said, I downloaded a book straight from Amazon into the Kindle app, no italics. Same book downloaded from Amazon into the Kindle app on my phone shows the italics. I downloaded the book onto my laptop (running Lnux Mint 15 with the Kindle program loaded via wine) and pulled it into Calibre and converted it to ePub, pushed the ePub version back to the tablet and tried it in Cool Reader; still no italics.

I pulled a different book up into Calibre, .rtf file. Pushed it to the Tablet as an ePub and tried it in Cool Reader. Still no italics. The Calibre viewer sees the italics fine.

I copy the .rtf file directly to the tablet; open with Cool Reader: no italics.

I know Cool Reader can read italics, the app is also on my phone and it does absolutely fine, just as the Kindle app works fine on the phone. I just don't know how/where to look to find a fix/workaround for this device...

Maybe I have to ditch the stock firmware and install something else?
