Hi

Using an Adobe font for a personal video title and credits.
 
If my CC subscription expires does this affect font licensing of any already published work?
 
Thanks

    For a video title and credits, by definition you have rasterized the text into the video. You have no further obligations under the Adobe Fonts licensing terms. You are “good to go” so to speak. Of course, if you wish to modify the video and use that font again in modified titles / credits, you will again need to have the CC subscription or otherwise license the font such that you can enter the new text and re-rasterize into the modified titles / credits.

    This is not a general Type & Typography question, but rather a question related to the Adobe Fonts service. Moving this to the Adobe Fonts community.
