Try this:



app.selection[0].fontStyle = getfontstyle()

function getfontstyle() 
{ 
var myFont = app.selection[0].appliedFont.fontFamily 
if( app.fonts.item( myFont+'\tItalic' ).index > 0 ) 
   return 'Italic'; 
else if( app.fonts.item( myFont+'\tOblique' ).index > 0 ) 
   return 'Oblique'; 
else 
   exit(); 
} 




I could not find any font with an oblique style, but I use something comparable to select semibold if the font has it, otherwise bold, so this will probably work.
