i think this may be a very complex feature, because adobe font is a pay font collection, now i have a question for you, Adobe Font dont download the fonts to your computer? for now this is the way Sketch handle in a easy way the font you have installed.
I have the same question. I need to have the actual files to import into Unreal Engine to be used in my game UI. Is that not covered in the license agreement? The way fonts work in their engine, they have to be converted to a file type that UE4 understands.
I only had one font installed so not sure what it looks like with a ton, but I had 3 folders in this directory. C, E, R In C, there's an XML file called 'entitlements' that lists all the fonts you have. In the file name, you can find a number that shows you where the font file you need is in either the E or R folder. For me, the font I wanted had a long URL with 'TkD-36501' in the middle. That 36501 is the number to look for in other folders. Not sure what the difference is in those folders since that number was in each of them.
The files in E and R were of type 'File' so you'll have to rename them to .otf or .tttf to make them int fonts. I was able to do this with the Komet font and then import it into Unreal Engine and it worked great. Not sure why they make it so hard, but there you have it.
Thanks for posting this Gooner, yeah found them where you said but as a note for others. I found the ones in folder e had the the same numbers as those in r. But only the ones in r worked. I added the file extension of otf and then right clicked on the file and selected install, where all the other fonts usually go on windows. The only downside is that it installs the fonts with the number name not the name of the font. When you install it briefly shows the name of the font which one can change. After that the fonts are available to my other other apps besides adobe/Word. Your right, they do make it hard - I think it's because of their Adobe Cloud approach, which in my opinion/experience is a huge disservice to users of their software - might be good for their bottom line profits - but it's certainly not good for the end user, and I'm not just talking about this font issue. So many other quirks that makes using Adobe a pain in the butt at times.
Gooner444, a late reply, but better late than never. Your Adobe Fonts license covers your personal use as long as you have an active Creative Cloud subscription on the same computer. The license will forbid copying to another computer, and embedding in software. Conversion may or may not be allowed, but any converted file is subject to the same license.
Licensing fonts for use in apps or games is a very different thing. There may be hundreds or (you hope) millions of users. You do NOT want to get a bill from Adobe for each user, so you need to source fonts which offer licenses for use in this way. Most fonts do not offer any such license. (Yes, it really does happen that if a software license is breached in this way, a bill might be calculated for each user; it has cost companies millions).
This question arised with me after I found out you can't use Adobe Fonts as default font for your brands in Adobe Spark. You can however upload 'custom fonts' and other party fonts. Which is rediculous. If you have Adobe CC you have the right to use all of the Adobe Fonts, except for the place where you want to use them: your brand on social media.
All I did was copy-paste the .ttf files into C:\Windows\Fonts and they appeared in Adobe PDF after restarting the program. No Adobe Cloud, no Oleg Sidarenko, no opening 'File' this or 'Options' that, nothing. Just copy-paste and done.
If your on windows and have access to your fonts library through the control or command center you can simply find a free download of the font that you need and copy them into your fonts library. restart adobe and you should have the new fonts
Forget all the broken-record advice about Adobe Cloud from the gimps here, just scroll down to the post by Oleg Sidarenko in the above link and follow his directions. Managed to add fonts to DC (that had previously been installed to Windows) manually.
What people are asking--and I've run into this myself--is that you can install otf/ttf fonts in Windows and they will NOT be accessible in Acrobat DC. If you're trying to repair a document from someone else, that uses a given font and you can't find it via DC for either the File-Print to Adobe PDF--edit method, or the Preflight method, then you can't do the work.
It is a bit tricky.
1. The font which you want to activate using the Adobe CC app can be previewed in the font tab of the adobe application which you are using. *When the font is not available for editing it just shows the name.
2. Open the Adobe Creative Cloud app and go to the fonts tab.
3. Enter the font you wish to activate in the search tab.
4. You will be redirected to a page in the web browser. Just double-click the font and then click on the active tab on the top right-hand side.
5. Restart the Adobe application to use and edit.
I also have this issue and would very much like it resolved. I have tried to recommended items and the font is on my adobe creative and my machine but the pdf editor refuses to offer or use it. This is such a huge pain and may mean I completely change the font of the document which is extremely frustrating.
So, have got some unique fonts via creative cloud, which I use in word, but then when I convert to pdf, I cannot get those fonts?????????? How bloody ridiculous, when I got the fonts via adobe in the first place!!!!!!!!
Hi all,
I have the same issue on Mac 10.13.6 Acrobat DC Pro 2019.
Missing fonts are installed on the sytem and they show up in Ilustrator but not in Acrobat.
Tried to clean cache and preferences but nothing worked.
Any idea ?
I have activated 3 fonts from Adobe Fonts via the Adobe Creative Cloud. They appear in the word font menu, but when I convert to pdf, the fonts are automatically changed. When I go into edit pdf, I an see the Adobe Fonts there, so I can manually change them. It appears however that I cannot embed them, as they do not appear in any of the embedding font sources.
I had a small pop up. It included a few font choices. It also had a few choices in fonts like Staple font, Medium, Dark and you could select which font of your choice. I can't find it.
Please help

I have quit Adobe Acrobat Pro DC many times and it has not worked. the font is installed in my Windows system (i use it in Word) but Adobe does not recognize it. Any way to get it to recognize the font?

This is where choosing the right font comes into play. This post will cover the importance of fonts in visual media as well as tips and tricks for adding and managing new fonts on both Windows and Mac operating systems.
The best part is that most of the fonts available on the web are completely free. There are also plenty of amazing, high quality ways to caption and transcribe videos through programs such as Simon Says which sync up beautifully with Adobe Premiere Pro. These programs usually only take a few clicks to use and are intuitive as well as time saving.
For Adobe Creative Cloud users, adobe fonts is a one stop shop for everything font related, housing a whopping 20,000 different typefaces. These free fonts are available for all Adobe Creative Cloud members regardless of the subscription plan and sync up with all Adobe apps. Finding these fonts can only be done via the Adobe Fonts web app (what was once Typekit).
These fonts are then put inside the Adobe Creative Cloud app and can be viewed by clicking the font icon in the upper right hand corner. Here, there are tabs for both active fonts and previously active fonts.
Each font in this dropdown list has a star next to it. Clicking the star next to the font will highlight that font type in blue. These fonts can be easily viewed by clicking the star icon at the very top of the dropdown list.
Here, Adobe makes it incredibly simple to activate fonts as well as look at previously active fonts, web projects, and purchased fonts. Adobe has a great how-to site explaining how to manage all of these elements in further detail.
