I have several pages written in paragraph text, all (as far I I know) in ElegaGarmnd BT. However, the Text Statistics says I have used Arial, Batang and ElegaGarmnd BT. I can't find any Arial or Batang anywhere. Can anyone explain what it's seeing? Can I trust anything in the Text Statistics dialogue?
I've never had the need to use this feature and only recently discovered that it make no sense as you've pointed out. How can you have no fonts at all but type one letter in arial and now you have two fonts.

CorelDRAW includes support to foreign languages, such as eastern laguages. Some fonts (such as Arial, batang, ect) is only used as text style for compatibiliy with other languages.
shelley said:Ariel - This doesn't answer the question. Say you've been cutting and pasting text from other sources and you want to be sure they've all converted to just one font, this won't help you.
I know, this is not what people need. Sometimes, you just need to know what fonts are really used. The information of Text Statistics (and also under File / document properties) include the fonts used on Text Styles, although you didn't see or didn0t never used it. Then, it's not an useful information. I just explained you why those extra fonts are listed.
shelley said:Just out of interest, can you search for fonts within text? As in, it's (genuinely) listing Segoe as a used font, can I find where it is?
Not really. You can use a font only on one word of a paragraph, even only on one "space". Then, the font is used, although you can't see where is used. Sorry
OK, thanks for that, but it's not a case of "sometimes". Don't you "always" need to know what actual fonts are being used?

Any chance of a techie is reading this and offering a solution before we reach Version Z0 (twenty, see what I did there)?
