A <xf> record in <cellXfs> then points at that fontId. The assertion here checks the simpler shape: at least one <font> in xl/styles.xml contains an <i> child. SpreadsheetML parts use a default namespace with no prefix; XPath therefore needs an explicit binding (here 'x'). Content of cell A1 appears in xl/sharedStrings.xml as an <si><t>Hello italic cell</t></si> entry."
