extern NSAttributedStringKey NSUsesScreenFontsDocumentAttribute;
```

## Discussion

The value of this attribute is an <doc://com.apple.documentation/documentation/Foundation/NSNumber> object containing a Boolean; this attribute corresponds to the [`usesScreenFonts`](/documentation/AppKit/NSLayoutManager/usesScreenFonts) method of [`NSLayoutManager`](/documentation/AppKit/NSLayoutManager); if absent, follows the system default setting.
