The fonts used in scripts and templates data report is accessible via the scripts/data reports menu of the main window, and shows, for each font installed on the current workstation, all the scripts and QuarkXPress or InDesign files that use it.

This report dialog is also available via the current script used fonts menu of the main window, in which case, the list of fonts and QuarkXPress or InDesign files that use them, is limited to the current script.

Presentations

By default, the fonts usage report report opens in full report mode. However, at the bottom-left of the report, you can select one of 2 other additional presentations.

Full report

The full report presentation shows the detail of each font as it is used by each DiaryGridLine, Quark Pages or InDesignPages script line in an advanced data grid which can then be used to group results by template or by date or by script.

Font use count

The font use count presentation displays each font only once, with the number of scripts and templates in which it is used.

Font-script pairs

The font-script pairs presentation (only available if the current report refers to more than one script) displays each script, and any font it uses, only once.

You can also use the option shown on the right to have the font-script pairs presentation exclude the script IDs. This is only really useful if you have multiple scripts with the exact same name (for example one in a current folder and one in a past year folder).

Statuses

Font Status Column Values

As discussed in the topic of templates properties, the main possible values for the FONTSTATUS column are:

The other status code STATUS_OK_NOT_USED  refers to fonts that are defined in the current QuarkXPress document's style sheets, are installed, but are not actually used.

Fonts used in QuarkXPress and/or InDesign Files

The font information is updated and saved whenever a GridTemplate is scanned, or an Info Page File is inspected, since the build 20911 of June 30, 2019.

This means that the font information of the present report will be present for any InDesign document, but only for QuarkXPress documents scanned or inspected since July 2019.

Any QuarkXPress file listed in this report, and which has not been re-scanned since July 2019, will be listed with the status STATUS_NEEDS_RESCAN and the mention NO_FONT_INFO. Re-scanning/Re-inspecting all QuarkXPress files (from the QuarkXPress menu of the main window) will fix this issue.

The NO_FONT_INFO Codes

This section applies only to very old QuarkXPress scripts and templates (not saved since before 2021) and does not apply to any InDesign script or template.

In some cases, and only when using QuarkXPress, the entry for a particular QuarkXPress file in the FontName column is NO_FONT_INFO.

One of the corresponding FontStatus codes is STATUS_FILE_MISSING, which means that the file was never scanned with font information (ie. since July 1st, 2019), and that at the present time, it cannot be found in the location where it was first scanned from.

The status codes STATUS_NEEDS_RESCAN is discussed next.

Fonts used in script line properties

This section applies only to very old QuarkXPress scripts and templates (not saved since before 2021) and does not apply to any InDesign script or template.

The font information used in script lines properties uses the XML representation of scripts, which will have been phased in beginning in July 2020.

A reminder will be displayed, as shown on the right, for scripts selected in this report, and which have not been saved since July 2020.
