I use the lucidasans fonts since they look quite pretty at 12pt which is the largest such that I can have 2 80 column emacs frames + scrollbars side by side on my screen. Lucidasans doesn't have an italic representation and I thought I had got round this by setting Emacs.italic.attributeForeground: hotpink in my .Xdefaults. Only due to this discussion have I realised that not all 'italic' faces pick this up - gnus-emphasis-[bold-]italic does not change its colour. Ought I consider this a bug? Paul
