There currently is only one way to choose any of the available font styles: 
select the style field in the 
Format->Character dialog.

Unfortunately even this method fails as the code for the Format->Character 
dialog seems to be written 
with the assumption that there are only bold and italic can be switched on or 
off. The code for this 
dialog (svx/source/dialog/chardlg.cxx) also does some wild 
translation/tunneling of the font styles 
(into "posture items") whereas a more naive approach (to manage the styles by 
keeping the style names 
as they were provided by VCL) would have been more successful...

@mba: I suggest to first fix/extend the Format->Character dialog and adjust the 
users of this dialogs 
resulting posture items to handle arbitrary styles. When this is done I suggest 
to extend the UI so that 
selecting different styles is more intuitive than starting the dialog.
