I think this was one of the minor bugs fixed in the update I posted to the 
list a month ago.  If you open a map and dont have the font, it should be 
defaulting to something like Times New Roman.

Hi All,

I've placed an FM update online at:

http://www.nbos.com/download/fm710dUPD.exe

This is an updater - just download and run.  When you run it, your existing
FM will be backed up as Mapper7.exe.002

This update fixes/adds:

FIXED: The problem printing to a fixed grid size when selecting a portion
of the map is fixed.  It will now print at scale when an area is selected
on the thumbnail.

FIXED: Custom Fields for the Map object were not saving/loading correctly.

FIXED: the problem w/ layer names not saving if you changed them is fixed.

ADDED: Transparent PNG image file support.  PNG images that feature alpha
channel information for varying degrees of transparency can be used as
mapping symbols.  If you use png's as symbols, previous builds of the
mapper will not be able to open the map because older builds will not
understand the png images.


Let me know if you encounter any problems
