Working with fonts
The fonts collection of the InDesign application object contains all fonts accessible to InDesign. The fonts
collection of a document, by contrast, contains only those fonts used in the document. The fonts
collection of a document also contains any missing fonts—fonts used in the document that are not
accessible to InDesign. The following script shows the difference between application fonts and document
fonts. (We omitted the
myGetBounds function here; for the complete script, see FontCollections.)
var myApplicationFonts = app.fonts;
var myDocument = app.documents.item(0);
var myStory = myDocument.stories.item(0);
var myDocumentFonts = myDocument.fonts;
var myFontNames = myApplicationFonts.everyItem().name;
var myDocumentFontNames = myDocument.fonts.everyItem().name;
var myString = "Document Fonts:\r";
for(var myCounter = 0;myCounter<myDocumentFontNames.length; myCounter++){
myString += myDocumentFontNames[myCounter] + "\r";
}
myString += "\rApplication Fonts:\r";
for(var myCounter = 0;myCounter<myFontNames.length; myCounter++){
myString += myFontNames[myCounter] + "\r";
}
myStory.contents = myString;
NOTE: Font names typically are of the form familyName<tab>fontStyle, where familyName is the name
of the font family,
<tab> is a tab character, and fontStyle is the name of the font style. For example:
"Adobe Caslon Pro<tab>Semibold Italic"
