Hi Richard,

Thanks for your reply.  I have tried this but I still need to check for
font errors and at the moment the only way I can do that is by the
'Font Problems' dialog.  If I turn off the dialogs from showing then I
won't be able to catch this error.

I was going to try a rough work around of creating a text frame,
putting a character in it and then changing the font of the character
to every font that should be in the file (I can read into the file and
get the font names).  The thought is that if I can't change the font of
the character then there's either an error or I don't have that font.
But sadly, I can find no way of changing the font through scripting.  I
found similar questions to changing fonts on the Adobe Forum and
elsewhere but no one ever answered their questions so I'm guessing it
might not be possible?

Jay
