RE: How to purge unwanted fonts from Reference Pages?
Ah, thanks for the tip! I hadn't actually spotted the Fonts pod yet. ( /Grumbles/ if Adobe provided a proper printed manual these days, then I might be able to find these things more easily! :) ) The Fonts pod seems to have sorted things for me. One the downside, I found it a bit ambiguous what it was doing - I wanted to make sure it was changing the *paragraph styles*, not applying ad-hoc font overrides to everything? (As that would be crazy, right?) but I'm optimistically assuming it was doing the former. One great thing, though, was that it lists all those instances of phantom fonts where, obtusely, FrameMaker insists they are being used in the document, but, tellingly, the Font pod can't show any instance of where they are being used. (This is because they aren't, er, being used... ) It appears to be a great tool for purging this debris!

Delete everything you're not using from the reference pages.

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.
