It used to be that Adobe shipped the core "gang of 13" or "gang of 35" Postscript fonts with ATM, but they stopped that 2-4 years ago. Now you have to buy the Adobe Type Basics package to get the actual Postscript font files, or else you sometimes get them on a CD with various Postscript printers. My Xerox 2125N came with the full "gang of 136" selection.  

Other situations are if your printer has Postscript fonts built in, then when that printer is added to your system you automagically "see" the fonts as available in FM when that specific printer is set as the default printer, even though they're printer-resident as opposed to actual fonts residing on your system. 

So it sounds like you don't have the actual PS Times font, Rick, you're right. 

A slightly off-the-wall question, though -- do you have any .eps files in your misbehaving FM doc? Occasionally .eps files don't have fonts embedded, and maybe this is where the mysterious font reference is hiding, and FM is picking up on that.
