textItem font Error 8500: The request property does not exist

[Rocky@]

Hi All,

I got the below error for some of the files and working fine in some other files.

Code for reference

convertRXLayers(app.activeDocument);
function convertRXLayers(doc){
	
	for (var m = doc.layers.length-1; m >= 0; m--){
		
		var myLayerInvisible = 'FALSE'
		var theLayer = doc.layers[m];
		
		if(theLayer.visible == false) {
			myLayerInvisible = 'TRUE'
		}
		
		if (theLayer.typename === 'ArtLayer'){
			if(theLayer.kind == LayerKind.TEXT) { 
				//try{
					if(theLayer.textItem.font.indexOf("SFPro") > -1){//this line got error
						convertToShape(theLayer);
						if(myLayerInvisible === 'TRUE'){
							app.activeLayer = theLayer
							app.activeLayer.visible = false
						}
					}
			//	}catch(e){}
			}
			else{
				continue
			}
		}
		else{
			convertRXLayers(theLayer);
		}
	}
}

Thanks

Cannot execute script in target engine 'main'! (#45) Object is invalid

if(theLayer.textItem.font.indexOf("SFPro") > -1)

Any problem with the above code, actually I got the error on this line only, but it works for some of the file. Could you please anyone help me out?

Check if my suggestion about using AM instead of DOM is not the solution.

Hi Kukurykus,

Could you please share the AM code for getting the font names from the active document text layers?

Thanks

Analyzing scripts written for you should give you the answer:
