<body class='hmmessage'><div dir='ltr'>Here's an interesting twist on this, which happened to me personally.<br><br>I had a couple of files that in a large multi-author specification document that persistently gave me unavailable fonts messages, even after opening and saving the files with the "remember missing font names" option turned off. The FrameMaker console messages reported that the offending fonts were two Asian-language fonts, which made a certain amount of sense because the offending files had been worked on by a Chinese-speaking engineer. <br><br>I looked in all the usual places: paragraph and character catalogs; master pages and reference pages; variables, table formats, and cross-reference formats. To eliminate vector graphics as possible culprits (raster graphics contain only patterns of pixels--no fonts), I removed all of them from a copies of the files, and still no joy. <br><br>At that point I figured I'd waste a little more time and search the MIF. Imagine my surprise when UltraEdit turned up *zero* instances of either font name (or any significant part of either name) anywhere in the MIF file. Apparently, the MIF export filter recognized the font names as extraneous or anomalous and stripped them out of the file. All I had to do is open the MIF file and re-save it in FrameMaker binary format, and I was good to go. <br><br>So the bottom line is, if turning off "remember" doesn't work, and you can't find the unavailable fonts in the FrameMaker file, try a MIF wash as the next step before spending any time searching the MIF file and figuring out the syntax well enough to delete the font references without breaking anything.<br><br>Fred Ridder<br><br><div><div id="SkyDrivePlaceholder"></div><hr id="stopSpelling">From: Syed.Hosain@aeris.net<br>To: karendesign@gmail.com; framers@lists.frameusers.com<br>Date: Fri, 12 Apr 2013 11:13:36 -0700<br>Subject: RE: More Font Warnings<br><br><style><!--
