Thanks for the response, but that is what I have now and am trying to get
away from.  I want ³normal², ³bold² and ³Italic²,  not ³Veranda²,
³Veranda-Bold² and ³Veranda-Italic² for the secondary list.  In many cases
it might be possible to strip the font Family name, but the font naming
convention is not consistent.  Some even use contractions.  If you look at
the font list in Pages on the iPad, it does what I want.
