what does it mean when my font name is followed by this *

Hi ​@Oakridge308445440y8w,

Thanks for reaching out! I’d like to inform you that the asterisk indicates that the font currently being displayed is a substitution for the original font that was used. In other words, if the document is showing a different font because the original one is either missing or not available in your system.

Could you please let us know which Adobe apps you are using?

Regards,

Tarun
