I have loaded my fonts using

library(extrafont)
font_import()

When I look at the path using 

fonttable()

There are some fonts which does not exist any longer under that path. This creates some problems for me later on. How do I remove/unregister them from the font database?

Just rerunning font_import does not work.

It's easy, just run the following code:

library(extrafont)    
db_path <- paste0(system.file(package = "extrafontdb"),"/fontmap/fonttable.csv")
file.show(db_path)

This opens up the .csv file that serves as the font database for extrafont. In this file you can just remove the fonts you want to unregister. Save the file when you're done and voilá!
