Sorry if this is a stupid question but did Adobe get rid of a bunch of fonts recently? Examples of some of the missing fonts being Aqua Grotesque, Century Gothic, Bauhaus and Lucida Calligraphy. Just want to make sure there's nothing wrong with my computer

      I too noticed that one of my fonts is missing. Big Caslon. it is still on my computer but it has been removed from Adobe Fonts. I know it was on there because when you google "Big Caslon" the first result is the Adobe Fonts page for Adobe Caslon. When you try and go to that link, however, it just leads to a broken page.

        I have used Big Caslon FB for a  branding project and I NEED it to continue with the project. All my open files are broken. Where did it go? It was an Adobe Original Font and it went missing.

        (Update: Apparently, the font belongs to Typenetwork and they decided to pull back from Adobe. It is not an Adobe original Font)
