You can find fonts in an FM document in 3 different ways:
1. Use the Search for Character Format function for the font,
   on body pages, master pages and reference pages.
2. Generate a list of references for fonts: File > Generate >
   List of references, include Fonts, and Create Hypertext Links.
3. Save to MIF and search the text file for your font name.
   It takes a bit of MIF knowledge to delete or replace it.

In some cases, the only way to find a font is to search the MIF
file. Font references can "hide" in a file in places where the
GUI won't find it. Typically, this is the case for definitions
for default table paragraphs that are stored in table instances,
even though they aren't used.
