Is it possible to set text type to bold italic via script? I have the following code that works:

app.activeDocument.activeLayer.textItem.font = "Arial";

What would I need to add to make it bold italic?

 

Thanks.

for(i = +(fnts = []); i < fonts.length;) {if (/bolditalic/i.test(fnt = fonts[i++].postScriptName)) fnts.push((fnts.length ? '\n' : '') + fnt)}; alert(fnts)

    What about other fonts? For example Courier New?
