I have BitStream ITC Zapf Chancery with these four faces:
Medium
Medium Italic
Demi

But the KDE Font Selector lists:
Regular

Demi Bold Italic

Bold Italic
IMHO, it is OK to call the standard face: "Regular" ONLY if it doesn't
have a name. If it does have a name why shouldn't that be used. Also,
the two simulated "Italic" faces are properly called: "Oblique".
And, is there a way to turn OFF the the manufactured Oblique faces?
Then there is ITC Bookman. I have installed these four faces:
Light
Light Italic
Demi
Demi Italic
But the KDE Font Selector lists:
Light
Light Italic
Regular
Regular Italic
Yes, Demi should be the default face if there is no "Medium" or "", but
why does it have to change the name?
What is the problem? FontConfig lists these correctly, so is it Qt or
KDE that is screwing this up? Is it a bug that should be reported?
Well I filed a bug report:
http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=103852
and found that part of the problem is that it was coded that way. :-(
