How do I get Lucida Grande italic into my application?

Question

Unfortunately, Lucida Grande does not have an italic variant and I need one.

My options here seem limited and I am hoping someone has a better one for me.

You rock! I made one mod -16.0 instead of -14.0 rotation... so user can find italicized values more easily in a giant spreadsheet. My problem was that using a non-LucidaGrande font causes all kinds of vertical alignment issues throughout my UI.
