If you have to deal with the missing font, you have two choices: load
the font, or find the font usage and change it.
Missing font usages can lurk in such unsuspected places as a deleted
paragraph format in a table header cell with the table header turned
off. These can be very difficult to find in the binary fm file. For
instance, you could go through every table, turn the table header on,
type some copy in each cell, and see if it exposes some old paragraph
format usages you thought you'd gotten rid of many years ago. These are
easy to find in MIF, though. Export to MIF, open in Notepad, search for
Times, replace with the font of your choice.

*Subject:* FM10 - font error
I am using FM10 on a book project and have inherited some older (FM7?)
files that were exchanged using the .mif format. Somewhere there must
be a "Times" font called out, which is no longer available. When I
open a single chapter there is no problem -- just an error message
saying Times New Roman is used instead. However, when I put the
chapters in a book and use the document>formatting>number command to
set each chapter I get an error that FM10 can do nothing because of
the previous error.
I have searched the document, all tags etc. and can find no reference
to or use of Times. Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Bill
