Tom,

  Is it possible that the font list does not coinatin the font that you 
are trying to use ? From your sld, when applying it to the layer, the 
resulting font name set will be  Arial-bold-italic. If that is not 
available in the font.txt, the defaut fall-back is to use the pixmap 
fonts which might explain the problem.
