The Find/Replace Font menu is specifically for managing the latter kinds of fixups. The only solutions are to install the full set of faces for a font, if they exist, or change the font usage to a font that has the required set of faces. But if you import that document into a more precise tool that requires actual font faces. You can use Impact, a one-face display font, and Word will happily italicise and bold it (for, by the way, horrible results).
What many Word users never realize is that Word fakes bold and italic if there's no available face for those variations. you'll get this font error.īut the most common cause of this is importing Word files that use fonts with limited or missing faces, such as the many that have only one, base, 'normal' face.
If you set a style to Moogly and then use Moogly Oblique, Moogly Bold and Moogly Demi in your formatting, and then switch the font for that style to Stookie, which doesn't have Oblique or Demi faces. If System A has Moogly Bold installed and it's used in a doc, but the doc is then opened on System B, which doesn't have Moogly Bold installed. A font - more specifically, a font face such as Bold or Italic - has to exist on the working system for InDesign to be able to use that font variation. No need to worry about licensing, and you can use fonts from Adobe Fonts on the web or in desktop applications. This is a common occurrence any time a font is changed, or a document is moved from one platform (Word) to another (InDesign), or to opened on a different system. Adobe Fonts partners with the world’s leading type foundries to bring thousands of beautiful fonts to designers every day.
