First question. Given the fact that I am continuously paying for access to the Adobe products, on what basis do they think they can just remove font packages at will? (Seems like robbery to me and makes them unstrustworthy).
To answer your first question, Adobe never, repeat never, repeat yet again never removes any fonts that you have installed on your system, whether those fonts are bundled with your operating system (in this case MacOS 11) or Microsoft Office or any other application. Thus, if you can't find a font that you need, it is not because Adobe removed it.

Monotype / Linotype has been ending its license agreements with distributors (aka, Adobe) for the past couple of years and Bookman may be one of those fonts. Searching Adobe's list of foundries and fonts, only Bookman JF by Jukebox is available, not Bookman Old Style. =bookman&utf8=%E2%9C%93
As I think I mentioned to you on a different thread, Adobe licenses fonts from type houses and makes them available to us with our CC subscriptions. After poking around, it turns out so does Microsoft.
At one time Microsoft Office applications under MacOS installed a number of font families including the Bookman Old Style font family on your computer. Recent versions of Microsoft Office for Mac no longer do such font installation. Rather, they do provide access to that family and many other fonts only to Microsoft Office for Mac applications while you are running them. The fonts are actually located as resources within the Office applications themselves and are not externally visible. (Actually, there are 264 distinct fonts hidden by Microsoft in this manner!) I cannot vouch for this, but it is possible that updates from older versions of Office to newer versions of Office on Mac may uninstall those fonts that were previously installed on your system; if I recall correctly, those fonts were installed on the system by Microsoft a few years back!
Thus, there is no kosher method of accessing the Bookman Old Style family (and the other fonts of those hidden 264 fonts) outside of Microsoft Office for Mac unless you separately license and install those fonts directly on your system.
Bookman, or Bookman Old Style, is a serif typeface. A wide, legible design that is slightly bolder than most body text faces, Bookman has been used for both display typography, for trade printing such as advertising, and less commonly for body text. In advertising use it is particularly associated with the graphic design of the 1960s and 1970s, when revivals of it were very popular.[1] It is also used as the official font of Indonesian laws since 2011.
Bookman evolved from fonts known as Old Style Antique, released around 1869. These were created as a bold version of the "Old Style" typeface, which had been cut by Alexander Phemister around the 1850s for the Miller & Richard foundry and become a standard, popular book typeface.[2][3][4] Old Style Antique has letterforms similar to those of the eighteenth-century typeface Caslon, with a more even and regular structure, a wide and tall lower-case, and little contrast in line width.
The direct ancestor of Bookmans were several fonts from around 1869 named "Old Style Antique" intended as a bold complement to the original Old Style face. "Antique" was a common name given to bolder typefaces of the time, now often called slab serifs, and identifies the aim of creating a complementary bolder design on the oldstyle model for uses such as emphasis and headings. However, the old style antique fonts also became used for extended body text use.[21][e] Although Old Style Antique faces were bolder than Old Style, the difference was not great enough that they could not be used for body text.[5]
These designs, for MacKellar, Smiths, & Jordan Co. in Philadelphia and Miller & Richard in Edinburgh were then copied and extended by a series of American type foundries, according to Ovink in a mixture of sizes based on the two foundries' designs. (During the period many fonts once created were copied by other foundries, in some cases probably illegally by electrotyping, making the evolution of styles complicated to track.) Ovink describes the MacKellar, Smiths, & Jordan Oldstyle Antique as being different for being slightly less bold and having an 'a' with a rounded top and a 'T' with slight curves on top.[24] Theodore De Vinne wrote of the style in 1902 that it was "in marked favour as a text letter for books intended to have more of legibility."[28] As Ovink notes, Old Style Antique was used by historically minded printers to emulate the solid style of fifteenth-century typefaces, and in particular to emulate the custom Golden Type used by William Morris at his Kelmscott Press.[26][3] Printers of the period noted the confusion of the apparently tautologous name,[5] one saying that it reminded him of a joke about a man who ordered café au lait with milk.[26]
Many Bookman revivals appeared for phototypesetting systems in the 1960s and 1970s, often including an extensive repertoire of swash characters, meaning that the design is commonly associated with the graphic design of the period.[1] These large character repertoires took advantage of the new phototypesetting technology, which allowed characters to be stored on film or glass phototype master disks and printed at any desired size, rather than bulky metal type.[41] Letraset created one revival during this period.[42] The separation of type designs from the complex manufacturing process of metal type also allowed for easier cloning of typefaces, meaning that many fonts sold during the period were unauthorised copies or modifications of other companies' designs.
ITC Bookman is a revival designed by Ed Benguiat in 1975, for the International Typeface Corporation. Benguiat developed a full family of four weights plus complementary cursive designs: unlike previous Bookman versions, these are true italics in which the letters take on handwriting forms. Benguiat also drew a suite of swash and alternate characters for each of the members of the family. While Bookman's x-height was quite high already, this enlarges the lower-case even more, in the fashion of the period. Fonts for swash and alternate characters were eventually released in OpenType versions of the fonts,[44] or separately as ITC Bookman Swash.
ITC licensed the design to Adobe and Apple, guaranteeing its importance in digital printing by making it one of the core fonts of the PostScript page description language as part of the Adobe PostScript 3 Font Set.[43] (The weights licensed were Light, Light Italic, Demi, Demi Italic.)
Jukebox Bookman is a revival of the original Bookman family, designed by Jason Walcott and originally published by Veer. Veer(Corbis) closed permanently in early 2016 but the Jukebox Bookman fonts continue to be offered online through other digital type vendors. [49]
Bookmania is a revival of Bookman Oldstyle and the Bookmans of the 1960s, designed by Mark Simonson. The design was started from a custom font designed by Mark Simonson back in 2006, which was based on Bookman Bold Italic with Swash, and a Bookman Bold with Swash font designed by Miller & Richard (as credited by Letraset). The italic fonts were redesigned to include optical correction. Unlike the ITC and Monotype revivals, Simonson chose to use the obliques preferred by ATF, offering true italic characters as an alternate.
Webfonts can be used on a single domain. Agencies responsible for multiple websites, for example web design agencies or hosting providers, may not share a single webfont license across multiple websites.
Every time the webpage using the webfont kit is loaded (i.e, the webfont kit CSS which holds the font-face rule is called) the counting system counts a single pageview for each webfont within the webfont kit.
An Electronic Doc license is based on the number of publications in which the font is used. Each issue counts as a separate publication. Regional or format variations don't count as separate publications.
We'll supply a kit containing webfonts that can be used within digital ads, such as banner ads. This kit may be shared with third parties who are working on your behalf to produce the ad creatives, however you are wholly responsible for it.
ITC Bookman font was designed by Edward Benguiat, whose goal was to design a typeface that had a clear resemblance to previous Bookman faces but was different and more versatile. This typeface retains all the traits of the original and adds a large x-height and moderate stroke contrast for optimal legibility. ITC Bookman font also has italics which are true cursive forms, as opposed to oblique roman characters.
In this post, we are providing you the translational serif typeface known as Bookman Font. The designing of this font has been done by Ed Benguiat, Chauncey H. Griffith, and Alexander Phemister and this was released by Miller and Richard foundry.
The styling of this typeface is being based on the old-style design that works well when used with parisian font. If you want vintage styling in your designs then this font is the ideal choice for that design.
The texture of this font provides the feel of advanced Lanston monotype and fashions. The bold and italic weights of this typeface are the main weights of this typeface that are used in many notable places and designs.
