determine what fonts are in use in document Ann TEF 3/22/2007 4:53:37 PM Hi, i would like to develop a macro to determine what fonts are in use in a Word document (particularly looking for wingdings) - is there any way to do this OTHER THAN visiting every character in the document and checking the font - which is extremely slow. Thanks you

Re: determine what fonts are in use in document "Tony Jollans" <My forename at my surname dot com> 3/22/2007 6:15:20 PM If you are just looking for a particular font you can use Find&Replace. If you want all fonts in use there is no easy way. Be aware though ... (a) that the font of an inserted symbol can not be picked up this way, and (b) it is slightly different with theme fonts in Word 2007 -- Enjoy, Tony "Ann TEF" <Ann TEF[ at ]discussions.microsoft.com> schreef in bericht news:0E97D3C7-6821-4782-9DAE-95845295BCEA[ at ]microsoft.com...

Re: determine what fonts are in use in document "Bob Eaton" <pete_dembrowski[ at ]hotmail.com> 3/23/2007 3:09:38 AM Here's the sledge hammer approach: Save the doc as xml and then look at the //w:fonts/w:font/[ at ]w:name values (or //pkg:part/pkg:xmlData/w:fonts/w:font/[ at ]w:name for XML in Word 07 files).
