I am having trouble with fonts held in Font Book not showing up in Photoshop - is it not possible to access fonts through my mac Font Book folder? Do I have to move all of my fonts into Adobe Fonts?

 

    Correct answer Test Screen Name

    Photoshop should use any font in the system folders - except type 1 fonts.

    "Should" but isn't... I just spent an hour with the India call center and no one there could figure out why Photoshop 2024 dropped all the Mac Font Book fonts (which worked fine in earlier versions of PS). The fonts show as active but PS can't find them. And if a file is opened with the "missing" fonts, PS wants to replace them. In the end, "support/help" gave up without any recommendations. I've had to use an older Mac laptop with a 2018 version of PS to work with Mac Font Book fonts as before. Is this a "bug"; and if so, anyone know when it will be fixed? (India is befuddled by it.) Thanks.
