Question about Adobe Fonts and use for personal projects

Question

Hi everyone,

I am interested in simple way to import a particular Adobe font (Garamond Pro Regular) into a different video editing software called Capcut. This would not be for commercial use — rather, personal use.

I found the particular font available for download easily from a 3rd party platform called https://font.download. My main question is, will doing this violate any kind of licensing or copyright agreement with Adobe? I can also see that by setting up a Create Cloud account, the same font can be downloaded directly that way, but it seems much easier to simply download it directly from this free platform.

If there is anything else I should be aware of in terms of Adobe licensing and use of fonts for personal use, I would love to hear your thoughts.

Thank you so much!

Susan

I'd beware of any fonts web sites that offer free downloads of Adobe fonts such as Adobe Garamond Pro. The fonts files are probably not legal. The Adobe Fonts service has Adobe Garamond Pro and Adobe Garamond Premier available to sync. Those fonts can be used for commercial graphics projects as well as personal projects just by having a Creative Cloud subscription. In the years before Adobe started Creative Cloud the Garamond Pro and Garamond Premier Pro families were included with certain releases of Adobe Creative Suite or standalone applications.
