Hi Framers

I am batting with a font-sub problem. I am trying to weed out all instances of 
specific fonts from a set of files. No matter how much I search for the fonts 
that FrameMaker reports are 'missing' when I open the file, I cannot find them, 
either on body pages, master pages or reference pages.

I was about to ask if anyone could suggest where else 'missing' fonts might be 
lurking. However, I've just answered my own question by saving the files to MIF 
and searching with a text editor; they were all in what seem to be table format 
definitions, even though the 'missing' fonts did not occur in instances of 
those tables in the text.

Can anyone shed any light on what's going on here, and suggest a solution? 
Although the missing fonts are still coded in the file, there doesn't seem to 
be any way of 'getting at' them to fix them. If I save out the table formats, 
and only the table formats, to a separate file, that file does not give 
'missing font' messages.

Here's an example of a MIF fragment with a bad font name:

 <Tbl 
  <TblID 49>
  <TblTag `Objectives'>
  <TblFormat 
   <TblColumn 
    <TblColumnNum 0>
    <TblColumnWidth  32.0 pc>
    <TblColumnH 
     <PgfTag `Objectives'>
     <Pgf 
      <PgfFont 
       <FTag `'>
       <FPlatformName `M.Frutiger 55 Roman.P'>
       <FFamily `Frutiger'>
       <FVar `Regular'>
       <FWeight `Roman'>
       <FAngle `Regular'>
       <FPostScriptName `Frutiger-Roman'> ... (etc)

It's the 'Frutiger-Roman' that is triggering the missing font error (amongst 
several others).
