Hello Sasha,

you are right, the use of different computers with different installed fonts
should be considered. But I think a message once per editing session of a
document could/should be acceptable. The message then could be as follows:

“Font XYZ is not installed on your system. 
Nevertheless do you like to use this font in your document? 
If “YES”, LibreOffice will use font ABC for displaying and printing of font
XYZ. Furthermore during this editing session of this document, font XYZ will be
accepted without displaying this message again.”

Behaviour:
1. NO: The cursor is placed back into the input field of the font.
2. YES: The non-installed font name is displayed (in red, as proposed in 
bug 44376). The cursor is replaced back into the document.

If one tries to assign a character or paragraph style with an uninstalled font,
the message should be slightly different:

“The character (paragraph) style uses the font XYZ. This font is not installed
on your system. 
Nevertheless do...”

If messages outlined above are implemented, it should be also taken into
account to display a message during opening a document, which uses uninstalled
fonts. An example: A user prints a document, which has been created with
another computer and this document uses fonts, that are not installed on
his/her computer. Because of the use of uninstalled fonts, the printing is not
satisfying. Without a message it may take a long time to find the reason. With
a message the user can get an idea where to look.
