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

This happens on so many of my presentations I have just spent 30 minutes trying to fix one. Just one. I removed all Calibri from it. I checked that Calibri doesn't exist in the master slide. I exported to Powerpoint and used the 'Replace Font' feature, which found a few remaining instances of Calibri. I removed these on my iPad and re-exported. Finally, using 'Replace Font' again, it could find no instances of Calibri in the document.

Still I get the error message. It's a crap error message and our lives would be easier if it was removed.

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!

I've just started having this problem. Fortunately I'm at the start of a presentation so stripped all text out and the error still comes up so it just can't be a true error???

Help!

Did you get anywhere with this as I've got the same issue? Stripped the presentation back to no text state on single page so it just must be stuck.

Seems to be just a pain when opening the presentation but doesn't seem to cause any crashing...yet!!!

The app mentioned above, AnyFont, did the trick for me.

Ok, so I now have the app but where do you get the font from to add it to itunes?

On my laptop they are in Contol Panel/Fonts folder. Email the file you need to yourself (make sure you send all versions). Then on your ipad, open the attachment, tap "open in...." And then anyFont should be listed. I think that was it!

I just started having the same issue a couple of days ago. It is strange because it has happened many moons after having updated to new Keynote version.

Sanstiger - I wonder if you heard back from Apple support.

It took me several hours to figure it out but I was able to remove the hidden instances of Calibri so that when the presentation opens I no longer get the error message.

This is how it worked for me.

1. Find out which objects are using Calibri.

This was harder than expected. I hadn't used Calibri in the presentation so the find replace in Powerpoint and/or Keynote 09 didn't work. So I created a new Keynote presentation and drag and dropped the slides across (not all at once) until I found which slides where causing the error message to appear.

2. Apply styles to all your objects

Once I knew which slides were causing the error, I selected all the shapes on that slide and applied a style (any style, I didn't care which one). Then I did the same for all the text objects. And again for all the line objects (remarkably Calibri was associated with my line objects - I hadn't expected that). At this point you can test it - close and reopen - for me I no longer got the error message.

3. Reformat the slides back to how they originally looked

Then I just had to reformat the slides back to how the originally looked.

Note - I don't think this will still work if the offending objects with Calibri applied to it are no longer in the document and I cannot see an obvious workaround if thats the case.

Just had this problem with a Keynote 6.5.3 presentation. It was alerting me to a different font that I thought I stripped away from every slide in my presentation. I even checked the Master pages.

I found out that the paragraph and character styles STILL had formatting requirements that needed the font in question.

It simply meant going into the styles and deleting any style that required the font. Done. It doesn't alert me to the missing font any longer!

cheers.
