Question

Installed fonts not showing up in my "Livetype" file on my computer.

I am trying to download my company's fonts to use in Canva but, for some reason, when I go to the file path (c:/Users/yourusername/AppData/Roaming/Adobe/Coresync/plugins/livetype/r) It shows that the folder is empty. 

In Creative Cloud, all my fonts are activated and installed but I cannot find them in the folder. I've restarted my computer 100 times, deleted the fonts out of my library and re-installed them, and toggled fonts on and off but to no avail, I still cannot find the font .otf files.

Synced font data from Adobe Fonts is largely hidden in the computer's file system. Fonts that are added from Adobe Fonts cannot be legally copied and uploaded to online apps like Canva. The limitations (or restrictions) with Adobe Fonts is a trade-off for having access to over 4000 type families from dozens of different type companies.

in the future, to find the best place to post your message, use the list here, https://community.adobe.com/

p.s. i don't think the adobe website, and forums in particular, are easy to navigate, so don't spend a lot of time searching that forum list. do your best and we'll move the post (like this one has already been moved) if it helps you get responses.
