I downloaded the various SF fonts from the Apple developer site (
https://developer.apple.com/fonts/) and installed them on my work computer (Win 10) but I noticed that the italics are not showing up in Illustrator or Photoshop.
They work fine on my Mac - has anyone else had this problem in Windows?

However, the license has no prohibition against running them on Windows; it just says they are provided solely to do interface mockups for macOS, iOS and watchOS. But it seems to allow doing those mockups on Windows, Linux, or wherever else you like. (It also requires you to be a registered Apple Developer or otherwise authorized by Apple. And has other restrictions and terms.)
Still, one can understand why Apple wouldn't have worried much about cross-platform concerns in building and testing them.

as wrong.It could be my code (although it does work correctly for all other fonts I have, as far as I know), and it has nothing to do with the Regular vs. Italic problem as reported, since both of these have this "error".
Also – worth mentioning – when I install the font on my Mac, FontBook's Validator reports no errors whatsoever.
No obvious differences between these two in encoding, name tables, head, or metric tables. Funny, though, that only a few of
name
entries appear properly encoded for both Windows and Mac, but the majority only for Windows.FreeType has no problem using the font:
