Unable to use an installed font while editing a PDF

Question

Hi,

I've encountered a problem where I have a font provided to me which has been installed successfully, I can see it as a selectable font within microsoft word, but when editing a PDF within acrobat adobe I am unable to select it from the list of available fonts when I am editing a document.

To make it a little more odd, this PDF I am editing was created using this font, but whenever I make changes to it it will not use the original font despite being installed on my laptop.

Any adivce would be helpful.

Thanks

Its windows 11 ver 24H2If you got the font from Adobe, or if it's available under Adobe Fonts then look for it here (https://fonts.adobe.com/) and then click it and select the Licensing tab to see what can be done with it:   On Windows you can open "Font Settings" (just type "font" into the start menu and you'll see it), then find your font, click it and look for the "License Description" section: It doesn't always appear, though.

There might be a permissions issue. Does the font allow to be embedded (fully or as a subset)?
