If you’re not sure about what font to change the glyph to, just check the Glyph preview boxes: as you can see, it’s blank in the Find Glyph section, as Trump Mediaeval does not contain the glyph, while Times does. The font in question, Trump Mediaeval LT Std, does not contain Greek small letters, but I knew that Times would, so that is the font I used in the Change Glyph section. The Preflight Panel gives you the missing glyph’s UID (Unicode ID), so that is the code that should be entered into the Find Glyph’s ID box, making sure that Unicode is selected in the drop down menu. I fired up Find/Change and went to the Glyph section.

Now that I knew what I was up against, the next problem was finding a fix.
#UNIVERSAL TYPE CLIENT FONT GLYPHS NOT WOKRING FULL#
As you can see from the screen shot below, I was missing a bunch of Greek small letters, and this makes sense as the chapter was full of mathematical formulas. I was using a profile that checked for missing glyphs, and Preflight told me there were 76 missing glyphs, as well as what they were, what their UID was, and what page they could be found on. The Preflight Panel warns of problems that can prevent a document or book from printing or outputting as desired–such as with missing glyphs. The first thing I did was bring up InDesign’s Preflight Panel.

This was far from the first time this has ever happened to me before, but what threw me was that I received no missing font warning, and checking the Type > Find Font dialog box showed that, indeed, as far as InDesign was concerned, there were no missing fonts.
