Missing fonts

Hello,

I used font for my work that recently was deactivated. I did not get much support from the support center about the issue. I was told to make an inquiry to make the font active again on my account but no further instructions.

    Two font foundries recently pulled out of Adobe Fonts. This was not Adobe's decision. Its kind of like Netflix having a movie and then the next week its gone from the service.

    You'll have to find a suitable substitute or buy the font directly from that foundry.

    Hello, same thing here. I've been counting on Bureau Grot for a website. It's now gone from  the catalogue and when I open my files it's just been removed without notice. This is absolutely not acceptable. I have had a project going on for three years with this font. It' not possible to remove fonts from the catalogue without us knowing it.

    If it's a rights negociation issue, the least would be to warn us when we use a specific font when we open a document. But it's actually so not reliable I don't understand how we're supposed to have faith in this service. How am I supposed to deal this with the client ?
