--- Comment #5 from V Stuart Foote <vstuart.foote at utsa.edu> ---
But wait, the "missing" font comes in recorded into the style which can already
be selected for continued use in the document. And IIRC for interoperability &
stability that PS or CS gets written back out with the "missing" font--not with
the intentional font substitution (i.e. by dialog) or result of an os/DE driven
fallback mechanism. Print or export to PDF may be an issue--but the ODF or
OOXML should retain the missing font assignment to its spans.

And isn't this really a duplicate of bug 96872 and the UX-Design workup in
https://design.blog.documentfoundation.org/2016/10/21/dealing-with-missing-fonts/
