@big10p:
I have posted a bit of extra info to your 'bug' report - not particularly helpful for your predicament, but it should explain what is going on.
One possible solution to this would be to load a standard version of the font and then perform your own italic shearing and emboldening in your Blitz app. [I tried messing about with padding the string with spaces, but it looks like the em-space thing is the problem - a (c) character gets clipped anyway]
