Finding a font

[Dave Reynolds]

Hi Chris

I see you've already had some replies.  One other thing you can try is 
to generate an Index of References for fonts.  In Frame 8 this is done 
as follows:

    * With the book file open, select Add > Index Of > References.  
      This opens the Set Up Index of References dialog.
    * Move Fonts into the "Include References" field (double click or
      select and use the arrow).
    * Make sure the Create Hypertext Links box is checked.
    * click Add.
    * Update the book.

Open the generated IOR file.  You will see a list of all the fonts used 
in the book, in alphabetical order.  Each entry is a hypertext link to 
the page where the font is located.  Use Ctrl+Alt+click to click on each 
link and jump to that location.  The font should be highlighted.  
(Note:  Frame seems to use the page layout of the first file in the book 
for the IOR file - you may need to change this if you have a title page 
with an unusual layout.)

If there is no text highlighted on the page you have jumped to, the font 
may be hidden in an unused text line (I've had this happen to me).  When 
you select the Draw a Text Line tool and click anywhere in a page (even 
in the margins), Frame seems to leave behind an instance of a text line, 
even if you haven't typed any text.  Without any text, this text line is 
of course invisible.  The best way I know to find them is to click in 
the margin (so the cursor is not in the text) and type Ctrl+a (select 
all).  This will select all objects on the page, including any empty 
text lines.

Best of luck

Dave
