List fonts used in a PDF

By Jetformat

Inspect font usage when a rendered result has missing glyphs or unexpected text appearance. A font inventory is a useful diagnostic, not a visual quality score.

Steps

1. Start with a local PDF. Replace the sample paths and identifiers with your own.
2. Run the command below. Read the returned data before choosing a follow-up edit.
3. Check the result as described below before using it in another job.

jetformat pdf fonts book.pdf

Check the result

Compare reported fonts with the intended document fonts and inspect a page containing the affected characters.

Notes and limits

This is a free utility or read operation. It does not need a paid conversion to inspect the result.

Run jetformat pdf fonts --help to compare options with your installed version.

See the pdf command reference for the surrounding workflow.
