I am having problems exporting italicisation from PDFs.

I have been working on a series of books where the source supplied is pdf, so I am exporting from Acrobat X as HTML, the HTML is a mess but a few minutes work in Dreamweaver makes it usable with Sigil.

So far so good.

But now the problem. After doing 40 books the 41st refuses to export the italics, the text is there, its just not italicised (no <i> tags or italic styles in the css). The italics are visible in the pdf and there is an italic font embedded in the pdf. I have tried loads of online and stand alone conversion tools but none of them solves my problem.

Any ideas anyone?
