How to Change the (Missing) Font in Endnotes

Hello and thanks (again) in advance,
My preflight report showed that I have 170 errors: they are all missing fonts in the numbers of the endnotes.
Some of the Endnotes are in the Times New Roman Font, but for some reason, 170 endnotes are not. This is a font problem with the "number" part of the endnotes -- the text in the endnotes is all Times New Roman.
What I would like to do is to change the font from the missing one (Cambria Regular) to Times New Roman.
The endnotes were imported when I placed this MS-Word document into InDesign.
Here's what I tried, that failed:
1. Fix the font problem when I opened the file, and InDesign showed missing fonts. (This fixed the fonts -- changed them from Cambria to Times New Roman) for all the text, but did not touch the numbers in the endnotes.
2. Search and Replace for the number of the Endnote -- the numbers were ignored by the search.
3. Search and Replace for the number of the Endnote, with the "Include Footnotes" button highlighted
4. Search and Replace for Cambia Regular text (although I might not have done that correctly.) ... I left the "Find What" box blank, and in the "Find Format" box I selected Cambria Regular. ... Nothing was found.
5. I deleted one of the numbers -- endnote 202 -- "by hand", and then retyped the number. This did change the font, but it had the bad effect of ruining the endnote numbering system: it made the next endnote (number 203) below it into number "1" and the endnote after that "2"
Also, I wondered if it "broke" the entire endnote system -- If there is some connection between the number that I deleted, and the corresponding superscript number in the text itself.
Here (below) is a screen shot of my pre-flight report.
You can see that some of the numbers in the endnotes,  (for example: 200 and 202) are in the correct font; but endnote numbers 201, 203, 204 are not in Times New Roman.
I am stuck ... Suggestions are welcome and appreciated !

Since ID doesn't really support endnotes, I suspect they were imported as a numbered list, particulary considering the uselectablility and find/change sympotoms you describe. Bullets and numbers in lists aren't "real" characters that can selected.
Find font should probably have done the trick if the numbers were assigned a style in the list definition AND you checked the update styles when changing all box in Find Font, so I'm also going to guess that you either didn't check the box or there is no style assigned to the numbers (and I suppose it's possible they aren't really a list).
The best solution would be, I think, to first verify that they the endnotes are a list, and to assign a character style to the numbers.

  • Anyone know how to change the default font for the new pages? Apparently it does not even come up when I search the 'Help' section of Pages. The level of incompetence in this new version seems breathtaking

    I cannot find how to change the default font in the new Pages. It does not appear in the Help area when I search for it. I am never sing Helvetica for my standard documents and cannot seem to change it. What am I missing? And why does Pages help not have an easy answer?

    You open a blank template and change the font to you liking. Remember to also get all the styles changed with new font. Then Save As Template. Now you have a template with the font you like.

    How to Change the Default Font in Firefox 4 , for this >>

    Go to properties first: and set before typing anything in as shown here:

    Then right click bring up this menu while inside active field and click on item with arrrow:

    Now what ever you typed should reflect the new Font setting.
    we may be as you say. But then again other people act like whats on the other side.
    We do our best. And if we fall short, well we gave it our best shot.
    Okay. In the interests of being completely clear:
    I have already tried this. Several times. This procedure will change the default for any of the fields that I place by hand. It does not change the default for any of the fields placed by the Wizard. I was unable to find a solution to the problem in any of the manuals, books, or on-line forums, which is why I posted here as a last resort. This leads to two conclusions:
    A. Your advice is incorrect
    B. There is a problem with my installation of Acrobat
    I will assume that A is not the correct conclusion. I will therefore try a re-install of my software to see if this clears up the problem. There have been other issues with other Adobe software on my machine that a re-installed has fixed nicely. Luckily, I don't have to do this at all often.

  • How to change the default font (Noteworthy) in Preview Annotation Note ?

    How to change the default font (Noteworthy) in Preview > Annotation > Note ?
    Thanks for any help guys. Noteworthy is horrible, in my view. But this does not matter. I simply do not want to use it, and woudl be fine with having helvetica back as the annotation typeface.
    Neither is Preview responding to changes I attempt in the type menu, nor did I find an entry when using “defaults read com.apple.Preview” in the Terminal.
    Any idea? Cheers.

    Sorry if this doesn't apply in Mountain Lion (no way to look at ML right now), but I see this in Preview under Mavericks:
    I click the annotation button (circled in red) and draw a box. I can then change the text to any active font using the drop down menu (circled in green).

  • How to change the default font size in X11?

    I was a PC/linux user and have switched to use Mac lately (MBP Snow leopard 10.6.8).
    Everything's been running perfectly on Mac so far and I really like it, until I have to run some programs on XQuartz/X11 (XQuart 2.7.0).  
    The default font size in the Xterm is too small. And I hate it that I have to change it everytime i open a new terminal (via vt fonts menu, ctrl+right-mouse click).
    Is there a way to change the default font size "permanently" in XQuartz/X11 ??
    This may be a stupid question to ask in the developer forum but i cant really solve it.
    There's only config. file ~/.Xdefaults they have mentioned so far on Google but i really cant find it regarding to the directorty.
    Thank you very much in advance.

    You would be surprised to find out that is not like this, to get your account blocked you really need to do a lot of damage and posts are not removed unless they are illegal, and *always* it needs more than a person to delete something. That's a site managed by the community, not by some people put in place by a company.
    It is always acceptable to link to external resources as long these resources do provide additional usefull information. Clearly the thread on that side contained much more information than the one here. I observed people linking from there to this forum, but it's not so common, and that's not due to the policy, just because here is more chat and less usefull information.... you will not see endless threads of replies on with "yes, I have the same problem" there.
    Shortly, this is "discussions" and is quite different in approach than the SE model, where everythign is aimed towards getting the be answers UP and removing all the nonsense.
    I wish that Apple would invest more in discussion, and going towards making this more practical.

  • How to find the missing fonts while running the script?

    hi,
    I need to create a script to find the missing font. not only for that. Actually i created a script to read the file properties. but i have a problem while running the script.
    I have put "User Interation Level" to never interact. Even i need to check wheather each file have "missing fonts". mean time i never stop the script.
    Is It Possible???

    Here's a shot of the Find Font Dialog:
    Papyrus (highlighted in the list) is missing, and there's a yellow warning triangle to show that. Fonts that ar not missing have an icon to show the type of font. You'll also see it shown as missing in the "Info" box at the bottom of the dialog.
    If you use the Replace With dropdown you will only see fonts listed that are installed on the system. In order to actually use the missing font, rather than substitute a different font in its place, you must obtain and install the missing font on the system.
    Are you seeing something different when you open Find Font?

  • How to change the SIZE FONT of the text description in ESS

    Hi Forum
       My key user wants the size font  more bigger in the areas and subarea´s of ESS. I have changed then font of the standard text in the Theme Editor. I think that this is a property in the Web Dynpro Application and only modifying it this could be more bigger, but this means change the standard appliction of ESS.
    Any idea ?
    Thnks
    Josué Cruz

    Josué,
    The changes applied to theme should work, but also you can consider this workarounds:
    For only one user, He/She can increase all fonts in general by using font increase tool from the internet browser;
    - In IE: View > Font Size > Larger or Largest
    - In Firefox: View > Zoom > Zoom In
    Do iview Personalization, by opening in Preview mode and doing Ctrl+Right click. Then, for the corresponding text you can select in Design field "Title 2", "Title 1", ...

  • How can I change the proportional font in Firefox?

    I prefer helvetica font, so I have changed the fonts for webpages in Firefox settings to it (changed all fonts to helvetica, unchecked "Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of my selections above"). However, some webpages still display in what I presume is the seriff font under proportional font. It would be nice to get all webpages to display in helvetica font but it seems that firefox only allows seriff or sans seriff for the proportional font.
    How can I make all the webpages display with the same font: helvetica?
    Please do not tell me how to change the other fonts; once again, I have done that.
    I only want to know if and how the PROPORTIONAL FONT can be changed or disabled, so that all webpages display in helvetica.

    I found it. In fact, the proportional ask you if you prefer serif or sans-serif. Then, under this, you can choose what serif is, and what sans-serif is.
    By example, I wanted my proportional font to be the Mona font. So I put sans-serif for proportional, and then I changed sans-serif for Mona.

  • Changing the default font in Keynote '09

    Can anyone please tell me how to change the default font in Keynote '09 masterslides to the one of my choice? I can't seem to do it by following the suggestions in Help.

    In a given theme, the default fonts are defined in a file whose complete pathname resemble to this one:
    Macintosh HD:Applications:iWork '09:Keynote.app:Contents:Resources:
    Themes:Black_8x6.kth:Contents:Resources:French.lproj:fontsAndText.strings
    Here is the path for the theme named "Black_8x6.kth" in its French version.
    The file contents is:
    "STYLESeries2" = "Series_2";
    "STYLE_None" = "Aucun";
    "STYLESeries5" = "Series_5";
    "STYLESeries3" = "Series_3";

    "STYLESeries0" = "Series_0";
    "FONT_MarkerFelt-Thin" = "MarkerFelt-Thin";
    "STYLESeries4" = "Series_4";
    If you edit the underlined font names you will change the default fonts accordingly.

  • Suppressing the Missing Fonts Dialog

    Hi
    Does anyone know how to suppress the Missing Fonts dialog?
    There was a topic about this a year ago in which a solution involving kShowMissingFontsCmdBoss was mentioned, but the example code doesn't seem to have any effect for me (in InDesign CS3).
    Thanks,
    Charles

    Thanks, but that doesn't quite work. I can either disable the whole dialog or hide the Ok and Cancel buttons. Whichever way, the dialog still appears, and now I can't dismiss it.

  • I like the mail feature with one exception; I cannot figure out how to change the font size of incoming mail permanently.  And, when answering an email I have to highlight the first few words and zoom it so I can see what I am writing.  what am I missing?

    I like the mail feature with one exception; I cannot figure out how to change the font size of incoming mail permanently.  And, when answering an email I have to highlight the first few words and zoom it so I can see what I am writing.  what am I missing?

    You can type the email using what you set in preferences and then highlight the text and use command - minus sign (or command - + for larger) to reduce the size of the text.
    You can also type command - T and a window will appear allowing you to select fonts/sizes/color/ background highlight.
    The above works in Notes also. I haven't tried to do this in any other Apple application.
    For incoming emails, you can use the above to reduce font size, but I don't know of a way to permanently set the incoming font size to a default.

  • How do you change the default font in Illustrator CS5?

    I have upgraded my Illustrator to CS5 and my default font has changed to a strange font. In Photoshop and InDesign, I was told that all you have to do is change the font in the Character menu to the font that you wish to be set as "default" and it will be the font that you always start with.
    NOTE: Does this mean that if I use a different font in a different document, the font will stay that font unless I change it back? Isn't there a way to make a particular font the font that I would always what I start with? All this setup means, is that the "default font" will always be whatever the last font that  was being used was. There has to be a way to make a default font that I will always start with no matter what the last font that was being used was.
    Illustrator gives you no option on font type, unless a file is open. Then, if you change the font and close the file, next time you start a file, it will go back to what is was to begin with. There has to be a way to change the default font for all of these programs to where the font always stays the same unless you change it. Mine is just set to use a weird font that I would probably never use.
    I just never thought it would be that big of a deal to change default settings for the font.

    Okay, I basically made three different documents and I made sure that I had everything chosen in each. I then saved the three to that file and they now appear in the list:
    Settings for all 3:
    72psi, 150psi and 300psi
    Rulers Visable
    Times New Roman
    12pt
    14.4pt
    I then went in and started three new documents. I used the three different New Document Profile's that I made and they all had Rulers, their sizes were correct, but the font stayed Myriad Pro. Did I miss anything? And, Yes, I did change the font and the setting before I saved them in the New Document Profile.
    One other thing, I did create a file in the folder, but it was spelled incorrectly. I then went into the folder, erased it and made a second. Then, I went to open it in IllustratorCS5 and it was still listed. I went to the file and it wasn't there anymore, but it was still listed in the New Document Profile. Is there a way to get it off of the list or is all I have to do is restart Illustrator?

  • How to change the default window size display font size on Lync 2013 main window?

    Hi champs,
    Just a simple non-technical question: How to change the default window size display font size on Lync 2013 main window on Windows 7 desktop?
    Thanks,

    Hi,
    Did you mean change the Lync: Change the Default Font and Color of Instant Messages just as Edwin said above?
    If not, as I know, there is no natural way to change it.
    If yes, on the latest version of Lync 2013 client, there is a new option “IM” on Lync client “Options” list. And you need to change the default Font and Color of IM in the interface of “IM”.
