Newly installed fonts not recongnized until app relaunch

First off, this is my first real day using the Experience Design CC and I have to say it's excellent so far.

I noticed when I install a font via TypeKit, I have to close the application and relaunch the app in order for the font to be recognized. Is this expected behavior? I assume not since this is not the behavior on other CC applications.

Specs

  • Windows 10 Pro
  • Intel Core i7-5820K @ 3.30GHz
  • 64.0 GB RAM
  • Nvidia GeForce GTX 980 Ti (Driver Version 378.78)

Hello! The fonts should seamlessly sync without requiring you to restart the program, but it's not unheard of. When you need to shut down and re-open to see the fonts, which program(s) are you using? Is it a third party program that you are experiencing this with, or does it happen with all your software?

As mentioned in my original post, I don't experience this issue with other Adobe CC applications (e.g. Illustrator or Photoshop). All I have open is Visual Studio 2017 and Experience Design CC (Beta).
