Hi everyone, I'm trying to edit a template and link all the missing fonts but I can't seem to change the font or do the find/replace font for this graphic font. I can only really move the text around. I don't know if it's outlined? I do have the fonts and when I try to change them the 'Change' and 'Change All' are greyed out. Does anyone know any fix about this?
You cannot Find/Replace fonts in placed graphics; only InDesign-created objects.
What kind of files are these graphics?? Can you open them? (This seems like an odd way to create a document if each word is a separate graphic.)
This is normally what one would see if you place something like:
a) PDFs/EPSs that do not have the fonts embedded;

What kind of graphics do we talk about?
What is the creator application?

If you have the fonts as you say and have loaded them AND they are the same FORMAT as used in the graphic, everything should resolve. If not, it probably won't match. in which case your only recourse is to resolve the issues by editing the graphics. e.g. If it's a PDF and you DO have the fonts that haven't embedded, there are ways to fix that with a Preflight Fixup in Acrobat to embed them.
