Missing font styles and how to replace them

Question

Dear lovely community,

I'm new to InDesign and wondering if there is an efficient way to handle missing font style errors.
I've received a Word document that uses a lot of Italic sections in the Normal text. The selected font type has no Italic style, just Regular Italic. Is there an efficient way to replace those red-colored sections with Regular Italic?

(I've tried to find a solution but haven't got the wording right while searching. If you know a solved thread on this topic, I'd also appreciate a link to that thread.)

Try File -> Package -> Find/Replace fonts.

Then you'll have a list of used fonts - with "missing" indicator - you can select new font and style.

You can also redefine Char & Para styles - checkbox at the bottom.
