Font styles in Usage dialog
The display of font styling information the Usage dialog has also been changed in
QuarkXPress 2019, version 15.0.1. The font face displayed in angular brackets has
been removed if font is available on the system.
Now, only the font name is displayed in Usage dialog > Fonts tab if the font is
available on the system.
Example:
Myriad Pro Regular
Myriad Pro Bold
Myriad Pro Italic
Myriad Pro Bold Italic
In the case of missing fonts, the font face is displayed in angular brackets along with
the missing font name.
Example:
Georgia Pro Italic displays as (-5, Georgia Pro) <<Italic>>
Avenir LT Std Heavy displays as (-3, Avenir LT Std 65 Medium) <<Bold>>
In case, faux bold/ italic styling is applied on the font, the faux bold/ italic string is
displayed alongside the font name within square parenthesis. Also, a faux warning
icon is displayed on the left of the font name.
