No, "AutoFakeSlant" comes from the cut and paste I have made from an
existing file. What I wanted to say is that I don't understand why
Zdének says that some ligatures are missing: kta, pta....

Difference between FakeSlant and AutoFakeSlant seems to be (this is not
so much documented):

FakeSlant the whole text is slanted

AutoFakeSlant: slanted text comes with the latex commands \textit{...}
or {\itshape ...}

Curiously, if you use FakeSlant, the whole text is slanted and there are
question marks for any text you put in \textit{....}
