Hi there,

My apologies if this is not quite the correct outlet for this inquiry.
I'm having some puzzling difficulties using the italics in EB Garamond in XeTeX -- I just get an error that the italic font shape is undefined, and I've been unable to obtain italics adding a +ital feature or anything. I've tried this on two computers so far, and haven't had this problem with any other font. I also downloaded your specimen.tex and compiled it, and the italics simply show up as plain roman text.

Any suggestions you could provide with regards to troubleshooting this issue would be appreciated!

Thanks,

Radu
