I tried "get every font" and that only lists the fonts native to the first document, not placed documents. "Count of fonts" gives the correct number of fonts used and also in imported documents. I can get the font name and status if I reference each font by a number, like "get name of font 23" or "get status of font 23". But, if any of those fonts from the imported page are missing, the script returns a different font's name and status. Such as, font 6 in my doc is missing, but it returns font 5's name and status.

I'm gonna guess that this might be a bug, since only in the 5.04 patch was getting a missing font's name fixed (I believe).

Really I only care if fonts are missing, not what their name is or anything else. But it seems like I can't find that out.
