Finding Fonts

Brian,
This is actually a FAQ, so you can find lots of info on how to resolve
it, but the basics:
 * The missing font(s) may be used on a Master or Reference page, so
you need to check those.
 * If you don't need to preserve the missing font, set your FM
preferences to turn "Remember Missing Fonts" off, open the files and
save them.
 * Imposing your new template, without the missing files, is likely to
fix the problem if it's in a para or character tag.
 * If you must find them and Bullet 1 didn't do it, try saving the
file as MIF and searching with a text editor.

InDesign has a feature where you can search for the use of a specific font. Does FrameMaker have a similar function? I have a document that says I am using "unavailable fonts" when I open it. I also cannot run the Update Book function because of this same error.

I have manually selected all of the text and attempted to force everything to Arial. I then save the file and close. When I re-open, I get the same error.
