missing fonts

[Rene Stephenson]

FM Console does show the font name(s) that are missing, but I haven't seen it specify where the font is used that's missing. For that piece of Jon's question, I'd  use Find, Character Format, type in the missing font family, and leave everything else as-is. This doesn't "see" the reference or master pages, though, so if you can't find it this way, do the search again while viewing ref pages and again while viewing master pages for each file in the book.

That said, it seems like "out there somewhere" I saw mention of a plugin that could search reference and master pages for various format stuff, but I can't remember if it just generated a list of what's used where (maybe hyperlinked) or exactly how it functioned. I don't even remember which plugin it was or who developed it. (Fine lot of help I am.) But, maybe someone else on the list knows and would respond. :-)

If you don't, open Preferences, turn on Show Translation Errors, and
reboot FM....

Under Windows, FM would use the system settings for font locations.
