I just had to use a temp Mac for a while and while trying to run the Create Font Sample font book script under 10.8.x, When it completes, it displays this in TextEdit:

Font Samples - 0 families   0 typefaces


Things like this are really frustrating when using a new version of the OS, because they used to work in the older one, and it wastes people's time.


I don't have the Script Debugger installed on this Mac, and I don't have the time to debug another process to simply get a list of all the fonts and what they look like that are installed on this Mac.


Was Font Book modified in 10.8.x?  Is this a sa(n)dboxing artifact?  Why is Apple shipping preinstalled scripts that don't work with the latest version of their OS?


Any ideas? Thanks.

I guess that a good idea was to take care of what the script is supposed to achieve.

It contain these two instructions :

set selectedFamilies to selected font families
set selectedTypefaces to selection


When I selected entire list of fonts, I got the wanted sample file.
