I mean, what does something like

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{fontspec}
\setromanfont{AldusLTStd-Roman}
\begin{document}
This is \fontname\font.
The italic is \textit{\fontname\font},
and bold is \textbf{\fontname\font}.
\end{document}

print? It should give you xetex's idea of the full font names, not  
necessarily the name you gave to fontspec.

(I don't have the font, or I'd try it myself, obviously!)
