Using Adobe Fonts

Hi All,

 

Not quite sure where to post this.  I have a user that needs to use a specific font per management.  The font is available in Adobe Fonts "Orpheus Pro".  Microsoft Publisher was used I guess to create the calendar using the font.  The issue is that the user uses a Chromebook primarily for work.  Is there a way to use Adobe fonts within Google Docs?  From what I can tell, to use fonts in Adobe you need:

 

Windows or Mac

Adobe Account with Creative Cloud

Microsoft Publisher or similiar program

 

Looking for clarity here as, when I do a Google search half the time the generative ai post is top of the list.

 

Thanks all,

@jctech2025 Unfortunately, there's no direct way to do that. Think of it like this: Adobe Fonts are designed to work within Adobe's applications. Google Docs, on the other hand, operates within the web-based world, relying on its own library of web-friendly fonts. These two systems don't speak the same "language" when it comes to fonts. The best solution is to use a Windows or Mac computer.

Hi @creative explorer,

 

Hope you are doing well. 

 

Thanks for writing in! This is pretty much the explanation we could've given. Cloud-based fonts for every application have a separate base, and this is true for Microsoft, Google, and Adobe.

 

Until you have a font file installed on your device for the font family, it would be difficult to use them on other applications apart from the ones who provide the fonts to you.
