hopeso Posted May 12, 2015 Report Share Posted May 12, 2015 I can't use Italics in my new Stage Play. Bold and Underline are in bold and can be used. But Italic is in Gray and can't be used. When I hit the gray Italic I hear a horn sound. Suggestions please. Thanks. David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Posted May 12, 2015 Report Share Posted May 12, 2015 Hi David, Does the font you're using have an italics variant? -Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hopeso Posted May 13, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 13, 2015 I assume you're talking about Italic choice within the font--like Helvetica rather than Helvetica. I was using Lucinda Grande and there is no Italic font. I checked back to Helvetica and it does NOT have a Italic listed either, but hitting the I Key changes it into Italics. I can change font to one that I can use Italic. Just thought it strange that some fonts don't have that option. Thanks for your help.

Steve Posted May 13, 2015 Report Share Posted May 13, 2015 Hi David, The Helvetica family has a typeface named "Oblique," which is an italic typeface. And yes, you'd think that modern font families would have italic typefaces. Geneva, for example, has neither italic nor bold. -Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
