FW: FM10 - font error

[Kenneth C. Benson]

If you have to deal with the missing font, you have two choices: load 
the font, or find the font usage and change it.

Missing font usages can lurk in such unsuspected places as a deleted 
paragraph format in a table header cell with the table header turned 
off. These can be very difficult to find in the binary fm file. For 
instance, you could go through every table, turn the table header on, 
type some copy in each cell, and see if it exposes some old paragraph 
format usages you thought you'd gotten rid of many years ago. These are 
easy to find in MIF, though. Export to MIF, open in Notepad, search for 
Times, replace with the font of your choice.
