Printing paragraph style information from FrameMaker

Can you print information about paragraph styles from FrameMaker like you
can from Word?
In Word, one of the options in the Print dialog box is to print a document's
styles. The result is a list of all defined styles with all the style
chracteristics.
I inherited a FM project and it looks like there are a lot of extraneous
styles in the document files. One goal is to confirm my suspicion about this
and to streamline style definitions to make short-term and long-term
maintenance easier and faster. (And if I wind up getting hired, I really
will want an environment that's as productive as possible.)
