Thanks for the ideas. As far as the fop xconf file, I tried both – I first specified the path for each of the four variants of Trebuchet MS and for Consolas; then I tried Thomas' suggestion. In both cases it works the same – the italic and bold do not appear in the PDF output.
I'm thinking maybe I'm missing some parameter settings. In my XSL customization layer I have <xsl:param name="body.font.family">Trebuchet MS</xsl:param> <xsl:param name="monospace.font.family">Consolas</xsl:param> I was assuming that the base family name was the only parameter value, needed but maybe I'm missing something?
