Hi David, In FrameMaker 11 you can open the Fonts pod (via the View menu). Then select the font which you have problems with and click on the Replace icon. Select a font which you want to use instead.

Folks, I am maintaining an old legacy document that's giving me grief at the moment. (I'm using Frame11 - I think the document was created years ago on - gasp - an Apple Mac). PDF creation is failing, because I've told it to cancel the job if font embedding fails, and there's fonts referenced in the doc that aren't available on my system. It is a real sneaky one, because even if I turn *off* "remember missing font names", open the doc, save, close.... the fonts are still there! Turns out they're not used in any paragraph or character style in Body page text flow ... nor embedded in any EPS graphic... I've tracked them down to the *reference* pages. There's a whole bunch of "mapping tables" and other gubbins on there (I'm not entirely sure what they're for!), but the text in them all is Times Roman. I've solved things like this in the past by saving as MIF, opening in WordPad, and manually changing the font names, but this doesn't seem feasible here, partly because there's dozens of instances of the name in the MIF, and also because the name of the font and font family and big long strings (2 or 3 different ones) so it's not so easy to just globally "find and replace" them. Any tips for dealing with this? Is there any command in the Frame GUI than I'm missing that could clear this up? The best solution I have at the moment is going into each chapter file's reference pages (there's about 10 in each) and selecting all this Time Roman text and manually setting it to a different font - but even that seems rather cumbersome. cheers David ________________________________ This e-mail contains privileged and confidential information intended for the use of the addressees named above.
