How do I find where a particular font is used in a Publisher docum

copy/paste into new pub doesn't help the unavailable font error follows.
a side issue is copy/paste changes the color scheme...that seems weird too

Yep, but no option to delete or not load (grayed out)...it just tells me
AvantGarde is not available. I know it isnt'. I had found the offending
AvantGarde text and changed it to Garamond and as far as I can see now
there is no AvantGarde being used in the pub., yet Pub is still
complaining about it.

Was AvantGarde a Pub font?

I may just have to copy/paste into a new pub file...but issues like this
usually send me on a quest to find out why it happens in the first place
:-)

Do you get the message about a font(s) when you open the file? There is a
dialog that gives you options.

Actually I now believe this is a font that Pub has embedded but is not
installed on this new machine...problem is how to tell pub not to try to
embed the missing font...I'm not using it anywhere anyway.

This is a great question!

I recently had a bad font problem and it partially still
exists...because somewhere in a 20 page document I must have ONE
character still in the bad font. It would be nice to be able to find
that character easily so I can change it to the new non-corrupt font
I'm using and stop the font warning I get when I open the file in Pub.

Yes.

Is it a long document? Sometimes turning a publication into a web page, preview and
then looking at the source code... You may have changed the text, over the years I
have found Publisher considers a space part of the font. It is hard to find that
space... Avantgarde is the default Corel font. As far as I can ascertain it was
never bundled with a Microsoft product.

This one is not very long, but I can't manually find it...I'll try the
webpage trick.

You're right...it may be a space with the AvantGarde attribute...just can
find the damn thing.

Yah..Corel I had Corel 9 on the other machine that this was originally
created on so I musta used the Corel font.

the html trick was great...I found several references to AvantGarde on
underlying styles for bg text boxes...changed them all to Garamond. This was
weird because the text in those boxes was displaying Garamond, but not when
I cut the text...the blank text box was displaying AvantGarde as the default
text font...Great!...at least I thought so for a few minutes.

Saved file, opened file again...still complains that AvantGarde is
unavailable.
