Apart from what others have said, you are probably getting the error in 
the book window because not all your chapter files are open when you 
give the numbering command.  In order to format the numbering, FM must 
open each closed file, which it tries to do 'silently' (without 
presenting you with any error messages). If you first open all the files 
in the book and deal with each font warning as it arises, you should be 
able to format the numbering from the book window without further 
problems.  If you change your Preferences to not remember missing font 
names, you can deal with the error messages for the last time by opening 
the files, acknowledging the font warnings, then saving the files.

HTH,
