That's why I said to insert an instance of each table format.

It's not a _presumptuous_ default. When you create a table, each cell has to
contain _some_ paragraph. And each paragraph has to use _some_ font. So
defaults have to exist. You can change the default paragraphs and fonts that
each table format uses as I described.
Or you can map the unavailable font to the replacement of your choice in the
maker.ini file (and turn off Remember Missing Font Names in File > Preferences
> General).
Or for a comprehensive, permanent solution, you can modify any and all format
definitions to suit you (as well as which formats exist) in the
behind-the-scenes template that FM uses when you create a new document without
selecting a template ("Use Blank Paper"). It's named shellnew.fm, and it's
located in the fminit subdirectory of your FM installation directory. Just open
it, redefine everything as you like (including the defaults for the table
formats), and save it. From then on, new docs will have exactly the formats,
fonts, defaults, etc., that you want.
