Is there a latex command to print the name of the font used for text and for math?












4















sometimes I change the fonts I used to build a latex document to see how it looks. So I have few old pdf files build with different fonts.



Is there latex command to print, inside the PDF when it is compiled, the official font name or specs used for text and for math? so this information is not lost or hard to find?



I know some PDF readers will allow one to find the fonts used in the PDF but sometimes this is hard to find and not all readers has this feature. I also like to print this in the document itself, may be on the margin or as footnote
somewhere so it is easy to see.



Here is a MWE



documentclass[12pt]{article}
usepackage{amsmath}

usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
usepackage{fourier}
usepackage{baskervald}

begin{document}

%footnote{This document was compiled using text font textFontName
%and math font mathFontName}

This is some math $sin(x)$
end{document}


I'd like to do something like the commented code above if there is a way to do it. Let assume there is only one font used in the document, as in the example above.



For example, for default font, I expect the footnote will be



  This document was compiled using text font "Computer Modern"
and math font "Computer Modern"


Using TL 2018

My answer can be improved for math, but it has up to 16 groups, you can check what
makeatlettermeaningmv@normalmakeatother produces to get an idea of what is involved.

    Yes, but it won’t give you the display name you want. The f@family macro will expand to something like cmr instead of Computer Modern Roman, and thefam in math mode is a number.
