There is a font I like that I want to use so I activated it from Adobe Fonts. I want to add this font to Illustrator, but I'm not sure how to do it.

 

Here is the link that I found and activated the font.

 

FOT-UDKakugoC80 Pro | Adobe Fonts

In general, once activated, the fonts become available in your apps automatically; there's no need to "add" them in any way, as long as you are properly signed in to CC. It may take a moment or two for your computer to sync the fonts down from the cloud servers for your apps to recognize their existence, depending on your internet connection/speed, so be patient if you have a slower connection. You may have to quit and relaunch Illustrator.

If you activated the the font but cannot find it in Illustrator, you may try if checking: Preferences > Type > Show Font Names in English helps.

in the future, to find the best place to post your message, use the list here, https://community.adobe.com/

 

p.s. i don't think the adobe website, and forums in particular, are easy to navigate, so don't spend a lot of time searching that forum list. do your best and we'll move the post if it helps you get responses.
