Default How to find hidden font?

I downloaded some PP Templates from the Internet. After I completed a
presentation with about 45 slides, I find that each and every time I saved
it, it said that it cannot save font MS PGothic, a font I do not use in my
presentation. It indicates that it cannot find the font in my computer.
Since it must be a font used in one of the master or templates that I am
using now, how do I locate the font in the presentation?
It seems such font is not easy to install, and I have no interest in doing
so. I do have the option set to embed the fonts in use.
How do I eliminate the message?

Try using Format | Replace Fonts and replace MS PGothic with Arial.

I think that font might be a double-byte font, though, and if so, you
probably won't be able to use Replace Fonts to get rid of it. If you do get
the "this is a double-byte font" error message, see: This presentation might
contain Far East (or Asian) text and formats that PowerPoint can't display

(Thanks for including the info on what versions of Office and Windows and
other stuff you're using. That comes in handy often!)
