You can map each missing font to its desired replacement in the 
[UnknownToKnownFontMap] section of maker.ini. Here are some examples: 

AvantGarde, *, *, *=FuturaStd-Medium, *, *, *
Helvetica, *, *, *=Arial, *, *, *
Times, *, *, *=BookAntiqua, *, *, *
Palatino, *, *, *=BookAntiqua, *, *, *

The comments in the file explain the syntax (and the Customizing Framemaker 
book helps, IIRC). I recall that for some fonts, getting the name right 
required some trial and error. But mostly, it's pretty straight-forward.

Also, in the [Fonts] section, you might want to make your standard body text 
the default used to map any other unknown fonts. That might look like this: 

DefaultFamily=BookAntiqua
DefaultAngle=Regular
DefaultVariation=Regular
DefaultWeight=Regular
DefaultSize=10

Then in FM, go to File > Preferences > General and turn of Remember Missing 
Font Names. When you open a file with missing fonts, FM prompts you (as usual), 
but this time it's to permanently replace the missing fonts. Verify that your 
mapping worked and the correct replacements were made before saving the file. 

HTH!
