I'm doing some test with jsui. As I really am not experienced with JS and as I did not find anything in the doc, I would like to know if there a way to test if a font is installed. As it is now, I get the following error if the font is not installed:

atsufont_new: ATSUFindFontFromName failed


Could my JS use Max's default font instead of generating this error message ? Or can I define a secondary font in my code ?

default-font

Yes, of course. Though the point was to use a font sexier than Arial if possible . But I get I can not define a fallback font.

Thanks Emmanuel. I think I'll cook something with a bpatcher so I can use this Max's feature.

As far as I remember the ATSUFindFontFromName error means that the name of the font is not correct. So in case you want to avoid using Arial, you need to find the correct name of the font (it might be case sensitive, or something like that).
