Damian,

Due to the unicode usage in FM8 and onwards, FM no longer recognizes
synthetically derived codepage fonts from a WGL TTF or OTF font. You
need to actually have a physical font file with the correct encoding
and naming for each of your derived fonts if you wish to continue work
with these font names.

The alternative is to re-work your templates to use unicode fonts and
remap the non-standard codepage specific characters to unicode values.
The second part may be easier with a script on a MIF file.

Yeah, I know, a royal PITA...
