I have a problem setting a font style such as italics in the find/change preferences. The font name works ok:

app.findPreferences.appliedFont="Minion Pro"

According to the scripting guide, to set a fontstyle, you do a tab after the font name, then you type a stylename (there's a tab there but you see it as a space):

app.findPreferences.appliedFont="Minion Pro Italic"

But this doesn't work. Nor do "^t", "\t", etc. Any ideas? Thanks.

Peter
