I usually have no problem finding and fixing missing fonts problems, but this one has me stumped so far. I'm creating a new template for my department. My default printer is our local HP printer. When I switch to the Distiller printer to create a PDF file, the Frame Console indicates that Times is being replaced with Times New Roman. Instead of starting from scratch for my draft template, I'd used an old copy with the intention of creating everything cleanly in a blank document once we had the formats exactly the way that we wanted. I wasn't worried about the font error; I figured that it was from something left over from the old template and that I'd take care of it when I created everything cleanly. Now that time has come, and I'd like to find the Times font so I don't accidentally add it to the real template. I did a search on the body pages, master pages, and reference pages and turned up nothing. I then did a search of the MIF file and turned up nothing. So I tried something else. I turned off the Remember Missing Fonts option and closed Frame. I then set the Distiller printer as my default printer and re-opened the document. The document opened fine (i.e., no missing fonts message, either in an error message or the Frame Console). Confused, I opened the Print dialog box and switched to my HP printer. Then I switched back to the Distiller printer, and the Frame Console showed up again saying it was replacing Times with Times New Roman. Now I was really curious. So I reset my default printer as the HP, and I opened a blank document (File | New and the Portrait button). When I switched to the Distiller printer, Frame Console and Times to TNR. I decided to give it a shot on the PC with Frame 7. (I'd been on Frame 6). Same thing. Is this normal and I'd just never noticed it before? Or is somethin' scwewy goin' on awound here? Rick
