What kind of fonts do you use in fontspec?
If the template you are using makes use of fontspec, it means it wants to use system fonts (TTF/OTF/AAT). You will need to compile this document using XeTeX ( xelatex) or LuaTeX ( lualatex ). Note that using XeTeX or LuaTeX may not be sufficient to compile this example, as you will also need to have the font required for it.
Do you need LuaTeX or XeTeX for fontspec?
The fontspec package requires either XeTeX or LuaTeX to function. You must change your typesetting engine to, e.g., “xelatex” or “lualatex” instead of plain “latex” or “pdflatex”.

Why do I get a font not found error with XeTeX?
If you don’t have it, you will get a “font-not-found” error, and you will have to find the TTF/OTF/AAT font and install it in your system (hopefully, it’s a free font). You are compiling your template using pdflatex, as is suggested by the error message. Instead, you need to compile it using either xetex (or xelatex) or luatex (or lualatex ).
