Supported Font of JavaFX

I'm using Windows 7 64 bits.

I looked into my fonts and you are right, I don't have an italic variant of
the Algerian font.

Question is, how does Excel and my navigator (Firefox) managed to display
an Italic version of that font if I don't have it? They have their own
fonts?

Thanks
