Install and Activate all fonts at once for offline use

[nicks91571920]

Hello, 

I use mac, and in the creative cloud app and I would like to install all my fonts for non-adobe apps at once, rather than go through the tedious step of clicking every button. Is this possible?

Sorry I think I am missing the pint of what you need to do.

Do you want to upload non Adobe fonts typefaces in the CC, or do you want to activate Adobe fonts typefaces in bulk?
If it's the first option, you can select font files by hitting shift and selecting them while browsing (up to 20 at the time)

if it's the latter

There is no real way to activate in bulk, but you can deactivate in bulk, in the Creative cloud on the web, in the manage fonts menu

Hope it helps!

Hi @nicks91571920,

In addition to @Imaginerie response, I would say that if you launch the Creative Cloud desktop app while offline, fonts won't display in the font lists of your apps. However, if you go offline while the Creative Cloud desktop app is running, activated fonts will still be listed and available to use.

Thanks for the help, I was interested in "Bulk Activation" and I'm bummed there's no option

I concur, since one can bulk deactivate, one could activate as well (Or more realistically, "reactivate" or it would mean you would have to choose which fonts you'd like to activate first 🙂 )

A workaround is to have an InDesign document using all those fonts. That is, however, only interesting if you are “jumping” from computer to computer.

Bulk deactivation is to get rid of installed fonts for performance reasons, that are no longer in use. Having activated many fonts slows down your system.
