This looks very much like the cause of the problem that Mike Ver Duin is having at http://community.coreldraw.com/forums/t/33943.aspx
Is anybody else finding their fontnav (64 bit or otherwise) is diagnosing italic fonts as duplicates?
My details:
X6 installed on newly delivered 64 bit win 7 professional (with all available windows updates).
Asked fontnav to find fonts from D:\Users\Public\Documents\Corel\Content X6\Fonts (as installed from X6 DVD).
The catalogue shows at most two fonts from each family of four:
Going to file > Settings > Duplicate Fonts shows the reason: the regular and italic versions of the font have been improperly detected as duplicates of each other.
It applies equally to the fonts on the Corel CD and those already installed in windows, including standard fonts such as Times New Roman.

I'm having the same problem, except that for me it seems to be working correctly on my 64 bit desktop (at least I haven't noticed any fonts misbehaving there yet), but not working on my 32 bit laptop where several fonts are showing only two of the four fonts on the group.
Does anyone know if Corel have acknowledged that this is actually a recognised problem and is going to get fixed.

The problem is real and affect BOTH the 32 bit and the 64 bit version of FontNav X6.
Not only are we aware of it, I am working on this issue as we speak. A fix should be available in the next update but you will have to rebuild your catalog.
In the mean time, I'd recommend to uninstall fontnav X6 and use the fontnav X5 with CorelDRAW X6.

Why not a Hot Fix before SP?
I'm with you on that Silvio.

That's not my call to make but I'll ask Tony to determine if we will do one or not.
