I've discovered some interesting features in Ovation Pro 2.77:

1. Clicking 'I' in the info palette changes text in 'Homerton Medium'
to 'Homerton Condensed Bold Oblique', not 'Homerton Oblique' as
expected.

2. Vertically shifting underlined text doesn't move the underline and
can result in 'strikeout'.

Interesting comments. I wouldn't have guessed - perhaps that is notsurprising.

Point (2) is the more unexpected - then again is it incorrect behaviour.I can see that often shifting the underline with the text is required,but then again e.g. with superscripts it might not be (<underline>MyPaper About e<superscript>x</superscript></underline>)

Point (1) is probably just another example of the mess font attributesget into. I would assume that it is not just I(talic) on the infopalette, but anything which sets Italics for that font which causes theproblem.
