Font Installation Merriweather Sand

Hi! 

I want to convert word files to PDF that include the Font Merriweather Sans. I work on iPad and have installed the fonts via iFont. Office/Word finds the fonts but when I convert to PDF, the fonts are clearly missing. 

It seems that I cannot install this font via Adobe cloud. Why is it that Merriweather exists, but Merriweather Sans does not? They are both on Google fonts....

Thanks for the support!

The Adobe Fonts service doesn't claim to include all Google fonts. It is not a superset of Google fonts.

Hey Dov,

 

thanks a lot for your quick response. 

Google or not Google... I was just surprised that one font from the family (Merriweather) is included, while the other (Merriweather Sans) is not. Is there any way to add Merriweather Sans to the offering or can I import the Font files manually? The font has an open font license. 

Would be great to somehow solve this. Everything else works fine, finally which was a long way already (vector graphics between Word, PDF, PC, .Mac, iPad, etc.). 

Thanks

The Adobe Fonts service does allow you to upload fonts that you have license to such that you can access them from the Adobe Fonts service just as you would any fonts available from that service. Conceivably, you could download the Merriweather Sans font from Google and then add it to your Adobe Fonts service account.
