Question

Adobe Fonts in Dreamweaver? Can't figure it out.

So I have a web page I made in the previous version of Dreamweaver in 2021. I used an Adobe Edge font, which stopped showing up in July.

 

I've downloaded the latest version of Dreamweaver. I've followed the instructions on the Add fonts to your website page, and pasted the code into my Head section. The font does not show, it's just reverting to Times New Roman.

 

A little help...? Here's a screen shot of the current Head section. Thank you.

    Edge Fonts are discontinued since July, 2022.

    Use Adobe Fonts or Google Web Fonts instead.

    I'm trying to get help with Adobe Fonts, they're not showing up in Dreamweaver when I add the code to the Head section as per the instructions on Adobe's Add Fonts to Your Website page.

    Are you using the info here: https://fonts.adobe.com


    You appear to be trying to use a font called "abel" on lines 12 and 32 in your css. I don't see that font when I search Adobe's font website. Are you sure that's the correct name for the font-family setting? Anything but the exact font name there would force your page to use the browser default.

    Abel was the original Adobe Edge font I was using when I originally made the web page in 2021; Adobe stopped supporting Edge fonts in July 2022. Do I need to remove all those lines now? I haven't seen anyone mention having to do that.

    OK, I've started a new document, and have added the embed HTML to the head, as in the screenshot below. But, the font doesn't appear in the properties window, and everything's still in the default Times New Roman. I have followed the instructions on the Add Fonts to Your Website page. What am I missing...?
