Are you using the OpenType version of Kallos ITC?
If so you might want to have a look through some of these to see if
anything is similar:

<https://bugs.freedesktop.org/buglist.cgi?query_format=specific&order=relevance+desc&bug_status=__all__&product=LibreOffice&content=OpenType>

I have _many_ ITC fonts on my Ubuntu/Debian system (way too many to list
here), and for the most part I can select them in LO (3.5.3.2)[1], where
I cannot select all choices in Abiword, or Kword. For example, if I
select an ITC .otf font galliard:

$ locate galliard
/home/<user>/.fonts/galliard-black.otf
/home/<user>/.fonts/galliard-blackitalic.otf
/home/<user>/.fonts/galliard-bold.otf
/home/<user>/.fonts/galliard-bolditalic.otf
/home/<user>/.fonts/galliard-italic.otf
/home/<user>/.fonts/galliard-roman.otf
/home/<user>/.fonts/galliard-ultra.otf
/home/<user>/.fonts/galliard-ultraitalic.otf

As you can see, the only galliard fonts on this system are .otf.

In LO 3.5 (via Format|Character) I can select ITC Galliard:
Ultra
UltraItalic
Roman
Italic
Bold
Bold Italic
Black
Ultra Italic
Black Italic

I made a file with each font selection, took a screenshot & added it to
the file, saved the file, closed LO and reopened LO and the file.

Before saving I noticed that the bolding seemed to be backwards (with
bold selected the font appears normal, with bold unselected from LO icon
the font appears bold).

After saving I noticed (in addition to the bolding) when checking
Format|Charater:
- Italic changed UltraItalic
- Roman changed to Ultra
It is repeatable & I'll add a pdf and odt of the document on your bug
report.
