As someone else pointed out, there is!  It's called TypeSet and
WestCode (makers of Pointless. phone: 619-487-9200) sells it for
about $30 direct.  It was written by myself and Joe Wankerl.  But,
font reports are only one of the things that TypeSet does.  It also
lets you group your TrueType fonts into sets, and includes only the
fonts in the currently selected set in your Font menu.  So, if you've
got 100 fonts in your system, but you only use 4 of them most of the
time, you can make a set with just those 4 fonts, and those are the
only fonts that will appear in your font menu.  Finally, TypeSet also
displays your TrueType fonts in their actual typeface in the font
menu!  (Oh, in case I forgot to mention it, reports can be sent to
either the printer or the screen, and all reports are formatted so
that they can easily be placed in a 3-hole binder.)
