When I’m opening AI files, there is a problem of Missing Fonts comes up. I tried to search and download those fonts at fonts.adobe.com; however, it says that there are no such fonts (please see the screenshot). Can you please advise how I can fix it?

    You can ask the creator of the document to provide you with those fonts and then install them on to your machine. If they're not sure how to do it, they can open the file in Ai, go to the File menu at the top and choose Package. Have them send you the folder and you should have everything you need.

    "You can ask the creator of the document to provide you with those fonts"

    If you don't own the fonts you are not allowed to use them.

    There is a big warning when packaging the file:

    Either search for a place where you can buy them or replace them by another font: Type > Find Font...
