    Default Preflight missing fonts

    I've got some InDesign files. When I do a preflight check, it says:

    10 fonts used, 1 missing, 2 embededded, 0 incomplete, 0 protected


    The problem is that in the status of all fonts listed is "OK" or
    "Embedded". Nothing shows up as "Missing". When I configure InDesign to
    show only the problems, nothing shows up. But I can't make the warning
    about missing fonts go away.

    Any ideas?

    Hi
    Don't know if this helps or not, but I had a problem with missing fonts
    and I found it was actually the invisibles causing the problem. In
    around about way I had to check every page to find the invisible which
    was using the missing font, it was a bit of a nightmare to say the
    least but I coudln't fathom out any other way in which I could solve
    it.
    Hope this may be of some use

    Hi

    Why not just use the Find Font dialogue box and replace the offending font?

    Are you using the built in preflight from InDesign, or a more complete
    tool, like Markzware's FlightCheck. Does it report the same?

    Hi
    The find font dialogue box has no missing fonts, it says all fonts are
    OK, thats why I couldn't figure out why it was saying this in
    preflight. It was just trial and error that I found the missing font
    was the invisible.
