Using Adobe fonts in Acrobat Pro

Hi there,

I need to make some minor changes to a few pdfs. The font used is Merriweather which I have activated in Adobe fonts. In the CC app it shows the font will be available in Adobe apps. 

 

When I open the pdf and edit, the font shows as Merriweather until I make a change when it reverts to default. Merriweather is not listed in ther drop down font list.

 

Do I need to physcially install font on my Mac, maybe?

@Simon28773657h0z9 yes, it is often beneficial to physically install the Merriweather font on your Mac even if it's activated in Adobe Fonts.

Thanks for the advice. Yes that worked installing the font. Bit misleading that adobe fonts gives the message that just activating means they will be available in app adobe applications.
