Help Finding Fonts Used in an AE Project?

How can I find out what fonts are being used in my AE project? My project has a lot of comps, layers and text. I need to find which text is using one particular font, so that I can replace that font with a new font.

AE seems to only offer "Find Missing Fonts". But I do not have a "missing font" to relink. This feature exists in Premiere as "Replace Fonts in Project", which gathers a list of fonts used in the project and allows you to replace them.

no such a feature in After Effects, but there's this handy 3rd party script:

Actually there is a way. In the project window, there's a search bar, just type "missing" and you've a list of what you can search within the project.
Just follow this video's instructions if my explanation is not clear.

Another font-related question:

InDesign will collect fonts and access those fonts in the newly-created Fonts folder. Any known plans to include this function in AE?

Hi Nicole, I hope if you have found a solution for this. If not, I've recently created a script to help motion artists collect fonts, just like how AE collects footages. The script can be found here. 🙂
