The basic problem is that currently the font style attributes are OR'd on.
(Bold, italic, underline, etc.) As you know, ORing is a one-way proposition.
That is, you can only turn flags on, not off.

The way we solve the problem in  http://platypus.pz.org Platypus  is to
create a new font using the existing typeface and size and with style set to
Font.NORMAL. This results in the vanilla font with all style attributes
switched off. Then turn on the italics and bold and what not as necessary.
(Of course, you could turn on the appropriate attributes in the original
font creation call.) It's a small kludge, but it works.

Cheers!
