Exclamation italic and bold fonts for side-loaded epubs

I am making epub book by myself. My kobo touch doesn't display italic and bold fonts for side-loaded epubs on firmware 2.4.

Does this problem still exist in latest firmware?

I am pretty sure that bug was fixed. But another came along to give problems with italics for some fonts. See https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...84#post2435184 for which fonts don't display italics.

Thank you very much, David and Pater. According to your suggestion, the problem should not have been in my kobo touch but css file.

font-style: Italic; ---> font-style: italic;

I changed "Italic" to "italic". My kobo touch displays italic on my epub now. Thank you!
