Hi

I am trying to change a character to Helvetica Neue Condensed in a script.

I have some characters selected, then I loop from their starting index to number of characters plus 1. I am saying:

set applied font of character loopVar of parent story to "Helvetica Neue\tCondensed"

This puts "Helvetica Neue Condensed" into the font field and nothing into the font style field of ID.

Can someone tell me where I am going wrong?

If I create a character style which just changes the font and font style I can change applied font to applied character style and it works perfectly.

Many thanks in advance.

Cliff
