When you select the text to change it's properties in Impress, it continues to maintain the font name saved in the data file. It also prints the message at the bottom of the dialog explaining that the currently set font is not installed. In reality I think this is a good thing. Since, at that point, the font has not been changed, Impress is correctly maintaining the font setting that is in the data file. I wish it just added to the message saying which font it is actually using.
