This is little to do with lattice (and 'font=2' is for base graphics: 
lattice is based on grid).  You may well not have bold or italic Chinese 
fonts.

Font families are set for the device.  You have not followed the posting 
guide: it asked for 'at a minimum' information about your setup.  So we 
cannot even guess what graphics device you used.
