3 Select a replacement font in the bottom section of the dialog box. You can customize the list of replacement fonts
by doing the following:
• Choose an option from the Replace With Font From pop-up menu: Document to list only the fonts that are used
in the document or System to list all fonts on your computer.
• Select the kinds of fonts you want to include in the list; deselect the kinds of fonts you don’t want to include.
4 Do one of the following:
• Click Change to change just one occurrence of the selected font.
• Click Change All to change all occurrences of the selected font.
When there are no more occurrences of a font in your document, its name is removed from the Fonts in Document
list.
5 Repeat steps 2 through 4 to find and replace a different font.
6 Click Done to close the dialog box.
Note: When you replace a font using the Find Font command, all other type attributes remain the same.
Work with missing fonts
If a document uses fonts not installed on your system, an alert message appears when you open it. Illustrator
indicates which fonts are missing and substitutes missing fonts with available matching fonts.
• To substitute missing fonts with a different font, select the text that uses the missing font and apply any other
available font.
• To make missing fonts available in Illustrator, either install the missing fonts on your system or activate the missing
fonts using a font management application.
• To highlight substituted fonts in pink, choose File > Document Setup, and choose Type from the pop-up menu at
the top of the dialog box. Then select Substituted Fonts, and then click
OK.
Formatting type
Selecting type
Selecting characters lets you edit them, format them using the Character panel, apply fill and stroke attributes to
them, and change their transparency. You can apply these changes to one character, a range of characters, or all
characters in a type object. When characters are selected, they are highlighted in the document window and the word
“Characters” appears in the Appearance panel.
Selecting a type object lets you apply global formatting options to all the characters in the object, including options
from the Character and Paragraph panels, fill and stroke attributes, and transparency settings. In addition, you can
apply effects, multiple fills and strokes, and opacity masks to a selected type object. (This is not possible for individ-
ually selected characters.) When a type object is selected, a bounding box appears around it in the document window
and the word “Type” appears in the Appearance panel.
Selecting a type path lets you adjust its shape and apply fill and stroke attributes to it. This level of selection is not
available for point type. When a type path is selected, the word “Path” appears in the Appearance panel.
