fontStyle function working?

[Marty Knapp]

Yes, exactly. I want to implement a Styles menu which will list only the 
styles available for the selected font. FontStyles is supposed to give a 
return-delimited list of styles for a given font and font size (see the 
dictionary). But when I try it, it always gives me "plain, bold, italic 
and bold-italic" even when all those style aren't really available. Can 
someone try it and see what they get?
