    My Photoshop was updated automatically today. I found our primary fonts missed when I am working on the artworks in the latest version photoshop 23.0.0. Our primary fonts used is Futura BT and Compacta. The fonts used to be worked without issue before photoshop upgraded to 23.0.0. And also, Illustrator and Indesign can load the fonts correctly.  Does anyone have same issue and any solution to get missing fonts back?

    Adobe apps use the fonts installed in your system, AND fonts from fonts.adobe.com. Do you know where those fonts came from, in your previous work? Futura PT is available in the Adobe Fonts page, but it looks like Compacta isn't. Sometimes, Adobe stops supporting some fonts, and that could have happened here.
    Do you have a local, licensed version of Compacta that you can install into your system? It's available for purchase at https://www.linotype.com/276/compacta-family.html There is also a listing for a free version at a few other sites (google). Those are likely not as complete or as reliable as the commercial font.

    Also, if you're using a font management program, it's possible it simply didn't auto-activate the font - it may need an update so their plugin works in the new Photoshop.

    hndhmn,

    I'm not sure what the issue is but a workaround that I think may work is to convert the text layer to a Vector shape. Just right-click on the text layer and select Convert to Shape. See if that works.

      JRfromPTC,

      Thanks for the reply, this way of converting the text layer to a vector shape works really well, But in this way, it will make the text not select-able in the PDF file, I really need it to be selectable.

      Thanks.
