Bookends 13 styled text not working

After just updating to Bookends 13, I'm not getting text in the Main tab to display with an italic (or any other) style. Anyone else encountering this?
PS: Am using Sierra 10.12.6, not yet upgraded to High Sierra.

No problems here. Check your default font for reference display in Font Book.

Update: It's working this morning! Problem solved. I didn't change anything -- didn't open FontBook, for instance. It was working fine before the update, and is working now. I can't explain why for numerous references I entered last night, it wouldn't take italics, but now, all is good.

Hm, well I just updated yesterday I think (for Chicago 17), and now I'm having the same problem. No italics, no matter the citation format. I checked the default font in preferences; it's still Times New Roman. The settings for formats still show "t" italicized.

Try another font such as Garamond (to make sure it's not a damaged font). And make sure your output is set to Styled Text (Biblio -> Bibliography).
