    Default Finding a particular font I used

    Hey there..is there any way to search for a font in my website that I used, that I'd like to replace, but can't seem to find it anywhere?

    I get that splash screen upon uploading the site asking me about this particular font and it's annoying..so I want to replace it but can't seem to find it.

    Thanks,
    Sue

    if you have designer pro used fonts appear in the font gallery and if you click on the font[s] in question these should then be selected in the document; you may have to click on the font, click on something else in the gallery and then go back and click the font again, sometimes it does not 'wake up' straight away

    I do not know if there are any particular website document considerations, but this works for documents in general

    P&G doe not have the font gallery afaik

    Hi Handrawn. I have Web Designer Premium. I don't think it has a font gallery. Thanks for trying.

    Sue, there is no direct method.

    Usually people jump in and add Paragraph Styles and forget to change Normal. It is then possible that the end carriage return is in the Normal font and because it is invisible, you don't notice.

    My first suggest would be to change Normal to the main font in use.

    The next is picking through every Text area, column and line in each page and its variants separately.
    You have to become a detective.

    Thanks, Acorn. I think I found it...and it seems it was a "Word" document that used that font...so hoping it's just that and an easy fix.
    So wish they made this easier...sigh.
    Appreciate your input!

    I keep seeing this need so I've used this TG thread to raise the awareness again. Hopefully, it will be coming to the Plus editions soon.
