    Description

      Font selection via QFont::setStyleName() is broken on Windows.

      QFontDatabase::styles("Arial") includes "Bold" as a valid style name. Yet, when requesting font family "Arial" with styleName "Bold", Qt renders "Arial" in the "Regular" style (= font weight 400).

      Reproduction

      import QtQuick
      import QtQuick.Window
      
      Window {
          width: 640
          height: 480
          visible: true
          title: qsTr("Font Style Selection Broken")
      
          Text {
              text: "Arial Bold"
              anchors.centerIn: parent
      
              font {
                  pixelSize: 72
                  family: "Arial"
                  styleName: "Bold"
              }
          }
      }
      

      More extensive example with more debug output attached (QML and plain C++).
