No Italics for TextFields?

[Keary Suska]

I am getting a font as such:

auxFont = [CPFont fontWithName:[[CPFont systemFontOfSize:13] familyName] size:13 italic:YES];

Which reports:

CPLog("FONT: %@ (%@)", [auxFont familyName], auxFont);
2016-07-20 16:44:06.574 Cappuccino [info]: FONT: Arial, sans-serif (<CPFont 0x00b00a> italic 13px Arial, sans-serif)

And apply it thusly:

[textField setFont:font];

But no italics in Chrome nor Safari. I have verified that I do have an italic font for Arial. Is there a way to figure this out?

TIA,
