My in-house script digesting program works extensively with fonts. As you all know, fonts come in families. The difference between the members of each family, is called typeface and look something like this:

Times New Roman
Bold
Italic
BoldItalic
Roman

Courier:
Medium
Oblique
Bold
BoldOblique

I'm sure there's good reason for the different names between font families, but the side effect is that when I want to set Italics for TNR I *must* use the "Italic" descriptor, and when I want to set Italics for Courier, I *must* use "Oblique." Not doing so causes the default font to be used instead.

If I have to, I will make/use a table, but it seems to me that a much easier thing would be for me to read the types from InDesign (or even the OS if that's how I have to do it). Is there an easy way to get the typeface options for a font family from InDesign?

TIA.
