Re: Unavailable font in BOOK file (not in book's files) (Mark Lehmann)
Hi Mark, How're things? All normal, except for the crash when trying to save as .mif. To answer your questions: - Yes, you should be easily able to save as .mif. That is rarely a problem. Feel free to e-mail it to me without graphics if you like. - Remember Missing Font Names is installation wide. Opening, clicking OK to reformat with available fonts and then saving FM files with Remember Missing Font Names OFF means that the substitutions are permanent in the files saved. If the font becomes available (either by installation or by file transfer to a system with the font available), those files will not use the file, but the font substituted (if available :-). - Information in Book file During book updates, the book file itself is updated with details from the files. This includes tags (paragraph, font, conditional text, colo(u)r view settings and definitions, and a whole lot more. Don't hesitate to contact me directly - I enjoy a challenge.

Unavailable font in BOOK file (not in book's files)
The Font is not available message appears when I open a particular book file — repeat, book file only. (Then when I then open the book file's files, they all open cleanly.) [FM10, Win7 SP3] Any ideas about how to fix this (apart from creating a new book file)? I've tried saving the book file as a MIF, but FrameMaker crashes when I click the Save button. Also: • Should I be able to save a book file as a MIF (so that I can rummage around in it)? • Is Remember Missing Font Names specific to the individual file, or to the FM installation? (I need to distribute this book file.) • I thought only Numbering and Pagination information was saved in a book file; now it seems that font information is in there as well.

RE: Unavailable font in BOOK file (not in book's files)
The crash on SaveAs mif is a bad sign. Yes, you should be able to saveAs MIF and that should clean the file of information like this that is a holdover from the previous state(s) of the book. The crash is indicative of some sort of corruption. The book file will store font information used in the files within it and can maintain this information after fonts have been removed from these files. That is cleaned up when it is saved as MIF and then opening and saving the MIF as a fm book file. So it is probably a good idea to rebuild the book. Remember Missing Font Names is specific to the FrameMaker installation and can be toggled off and on as needed. I usually leave it activated, for obvious reasons. Since no fonts are actually used in a book file since there is no text that will be printed from that container itself, it can't have any effect on the printed output, but it will result in an entry in the console window. That can be ignored.
