Actually, it IS strange.

On 10.6.8, you do not have to select any fonts at all and the script works to display all the fonts in your system - even though none are selected.



Wrong

If no family is selected (only one or several collections), the result is 
Font Samples - 0 families   0 typefaces

I was puzzled during ten seconds because I got 
Font Samples - 4 families   26 typefaces

after reopening the application used for a preceeding test.
In fact nothing was surprising, thanks to its hability to reopen as it was when we closed it, FontBook just reopened with the previous selection selected.
Deselecting that I got the normal :
Font Samples - 0 families   0 typefaces

Conclusion: nothing new under the sun.
The script behave the same, at least since 10.6

Just requires that the user open his eyes when he run it.
I didn't do that the first time and missed the fact that the families :
Futura, Gill Sans, Helvetica Neue and Optima 
were selected.

Of course somebody may edit the script so that it open by itself a selected collection and select its contents but it would be an other story.
