Adobe Express blocks both the Adobe Fonts version and the static version of BioRhyme ExtraBold
I am creating reusable branded templates in Adobe Express and need BioRhyme ExtraBold as part of my brand typography.
Adobe Fonts supplies BioRhyme as a variable font, which Adobe Express currently does not support. Adobe's documented workaround is to use a conventional/static version of the font.
I have the legitimate static TTF version of BioRhyme ExtraBold, but when I try to upload it to Adobe Express, Express rejects it with the message: “Font cannot be uploaded because it already exists in the Adobe Fonts library.”
This creates a dead end:
- Adobe Express cannot use the Adobe Fonts variable version.
- Adobe Express recommends using the static version.
- Adobe Express then prevents me from uploading that static version.
This is a significant workflow problem because I use Adobe Express specifically to create reusable templates and streamline repeated content production. Creating the typography separately in Illustrator defeats the purpose of using Express templates.
Could Adobe please either:
- add variable-font support to Adobe Express;
- expose the static BioRhyme weights in Express; or
- allow users to upload a static font weight when the Adobe Fonts version of that family is incompatible with Express?
Please escalate this to the Adobe Express product/engineering team.
