Re: Font not ready for primetime

Most likely something isn't set correctly. It works okay for me; things
are in roman and when I hit "italics" in the word processor they switch
to the correct italic. Must be something I'm doing wrong that doesn't
affect what I'm using. I'm going to try changing something that might
be the problem (you professional font-designers out there are snickering
in your sleeves because I'm so TrueType-clueless...); I've put up a
changed version.

I had a similar problem when I had the same family name on all four
fonts: I could get small-caps and small-caps italic, but not U&lc! Woops.
