It occurs to me that if Christine is getting the unavailable fonts message only when she's attempting to create a PDF, the font problem may not be in the text of the document because if it were she'd be getting the unavailable fonts message when she *opens* the file. My guess is that the offending font might be in a graphic rather than anywhere in any of FrameMaker's content or stored formats.
Another possibility might relate to the use of "Save As PDF". The Times font might be available on her default printer but not on the Adobe PDF printer. When you use Save As PDF, FrameMaker 7.x invisibly changes the printer from the default printer to the Adobe PDF printer driver, and most of the usual warnings you get when switching printers are suppressed. It might be useful to try saving the document to a PostScript file (using the Adobe PDF driver, of course) and then distilling it to PDF. My opinions only; I don't speak for Intel.

If you're sure it's not affecting any tags, just turn off Remember Missing Font Names in Preferences, open the file and save again. That should clear it. Occasionally, you'll need to safe as a MIF, open that as a text file, and search-and-replace, but that's normally not needed.
