Keynote - The font Calibri is missing. Your text might look different.

Apple released update for iWorks apps today but did NOT fix this issue. The iCloud option noted above will not work for larger files which is the majority of my presentations. They obviously do not monitor discussion boards....iOS 7 has really decreased my productivity and dramatically responsiveness of my devices.

As previously stated, if you wnat to give Apple feedback, this is not the venue. Go here: http://www.apple.com/feedback/

I ran into similar problems and took this as my motivation to develop "AnyFont". With this little app you are able to install all the fonts you need for your presentations on your iPhone or iPad. So when your are using Calibri in your presentation and get the error message after importing it on your iPad you can use AnyFont to install Calibri on your device which makes the error message go away and lets you use Calibri in your presentation.

Let me know how you like it!

If this warning is showing, the font Calibri is not on the Keynote app. This probably means that the font on all your slides will change to Times New Roman or such. You cannot install or add more fonts to iWork for iOS if that's what you're asking.

Are there problems with the actual presentation besides this warning? If not, you could probably disregard it. Or to be on the safe side, you could make a copy of the presentation and edit that one instead - to preserve the original.

You can't turn off the warning. It warns you for a reason - to let you know about the compatibility issues.

Calibri and Times New Roman are not that far off from each other in terms of font size, so if there's only one slide with the Calibri font, it's most likely going to be unharmed. There's no need to go looking through each slide trying to find the font because Keynote always fixes the compatibility issues to the best of its ability : ) You are working with a PowerPoint presentation in Keynote after all, so not everything is going to be perfect. They're two completely different file types. If you're sick of the error, you could always make changes on PowerPoint.

Well, you said the presentation works fine without the warning. I can't really offer any more suggestions besides disregard the warning and edit a copy instead of the original, so just in case something were to go wrong with one copy, you'd have a spare. You could also try reinstalling the Keynote app to see if that makes a difference, but make sure your presentations are backed up to iCloud or somewhere else first. I wish you good luck!

I too have this problem. Every time I open a document in the new version of Keynote is comes up with the warning. In the old version it would do it the first time only. I too just want to switch off the continuous warnings every time I open every document. Once it has changed the fonts, why does it need to retell me this when I open it again?

The fonts on iOS are a limited set of fonts system wide.

Only really few app allow to install custom fonts. I assume that apple trys to prevent compatibility problems with the system.

May i guess is that you have reused a PowerPoint-Template? The message is clear for Calibri is one of the standard fonts of MS-Office and not on the Mac or iOS by default. I get this message regularly whe opening Office-docs.

When you are using styles the soultion should be easy: change the styles to a font that is on the iPad too - as Times. The changed styles should affect the whole document.

And don´t forget the master slices for they got font formats too.

I'm having the same problem in Numbers, which I've been using on my iPad for months but after the most recent update *every single time* I open any spreadsheet even tangentially associated with excel at some point in the past, even if I try changing the font. It used to complain once and then save the conversion, now it complains every time. Glad to know this is an engineering bug and not a feature. Hope they get it sorted soon, it's really bugging me!

I use Keynote (and Numbers) every day for work. I have many presentations (and spreadsheets) and find the bugginess of the new versions pretty annoying. The added font warning dialogues, aside from the random crashes, makes switching between presentations slower.

I would like to downgrade to the previous version, but I remember that when I first installed it, I was asked if I wanted to convert my documents to the newer version. There's probably no way back now. 😟
