Question

viewing full glyph set in Adobe Fonts?

hi - does anyone know how to view the full glyph set of a font/font face within Adobe Fonts?

 

When I am searching for fonts to use, I am often looking at/for specific letters or looking to see what "extras" come with a font. It seems obvious (and is easy on other font sites) to look at a grid of every glyph for a given font, but I can't seem to find this feature on Adobe Fonts site. 

 

What am I missing?

 

thanks for any help, Debbie

    Adobe Fonts doesn't have such a thing at this time (even though it should). I've made feature requests about it in the Adobe User Voice forum.

     

    For the time being I have to try to cross reference certain fonts I'm interested in using by looking at other fonts web sites, such as MyFonts.com, and checking out glyphs tables there. Not all the commercial typefaces Adobe Fonts carries at its web site are available through MyFonts (or Fonts.com, FontShop, etc). Google Fonts doesn't show a complete glyphs table for fonts at their web site. Sometimes I just end up having to activate a type family and then check out the glyphs panel in Adobe Illustrator or InDesign afterward.

    I find that when I am searching for fonts and I'm looking for specific letters or "extras" come with a font. I can't find this feature on Adobe Fonts site.

     

    I see that 4 years later this has not been addressed.
