I have a long, 128 page chapter.
I was getting a "font not found, substitute Times New Roman for MS Shell Dlg 2" console message when I
opened the file.
An online search turned up the suggestion that if you can't actually find the font in your doc, to get rid of it, saving the file as MIF, and opening
and re-saving to FM, might solve the problem. ("If the font isn't really there to begin with.")
It didn't work. The console error message from opening the MIF file says, **The "MS Shell Dlg 2" Font is not available. "Times New Roman"
will be used in this session.**
On top of which, that same console error window also has about 60 lines with a different numerical variation of:
MIF: "K:\Technical Publications Current Projects\00 yadda yadda filename.mif" (126817): Value of Separation out of range (11).
The messages are all the same, only the six digit numbers in parantheses change.
I'm on a (relatively) NEW Dell Precision T1500 box with 64 bit Win 7 & FM 9.0p255. All graphics in the file were imported by reference into
anchored frames from a "graphics n pix" folder in the same directory as the FM file.
....I don't know if this is really a problem or not, but the filie does take a heck of a long time to open, and there's
usually a paranthetical note in the window top bar, following the FM file name, that says Windows (not responding.)
Which goes away when the file does open. (In 2 or 3 minutes? Haven't put a stopwatch on it....)
This file is just one of many similarly sized docs, so I'm a little worried about what might happen when they're all collected
into the book file.
Any suggestions, info or advice would be much appreciated.
