FONT problem in Watermark

I recently went to add a (many times) previously used text watermark and the font is SYMBOL - that is my only choice. I have uninstalled Acrobat DC and reinstalled twice today and still my only choice of font is SYMBOL.

Strangely, rebooting my Mac and opening Acrobat gave me my fonts back.

Same problem. It seems that the software just keeps getting buggier and buggier

Just started happening to me today, too, on a Watermark I have used forever.

This is still a major issue and I'm not going to restart my mac every time I run into this problem.

This is obviously a bug in the system.  I'm having the same problem with a watermark I've used and saved as an Action Wizard thousands of times.  Now the only font available in the watermark dialog window is Symbol.  When the window first opens after launch, I see the "loading fonts" progress bar briefly but no joy.

I'm having the same problem. Yesterday 8/15 it was fine. Today, it's SYMBOL or nothing.

Rebooting my Mac didn't solve this problem for me. Neither did uninstalling and reinstalling Acrobat. Any other suggestions on how to get a font other than symbols as an option in watermarks?
