I have a new MacBook Pro which runs on Monteray 12.0.1 and I am unable to active the font Open Sans. Have tried de-activating and then activating again with no success.

Hi Michael,

 

Thanks for reaching out. We would like to confirm if this is happening with Open sans or if this is happening with all Adobe Fonts when trying to activate.

 

 

We will try our best to help.

 

 

Thanks,

Harshika

Hi Harshika,

Thanks for getting back to me. I have only noticed this problem with Open Sans and one version of Calibri - Calibri light italic. The other fonts seem to work fine. When I go to the page on Creative Cloud where I can see both activated and inactivated fonts, the page never loads properly, the “wheel” just keep spinning. Don’t know if this is related to my problem, but thought I should mention it.
 
Looking forward to your help on this. 
 
Best regards,
Michael

This is how the page looks when I try to look at my active fonts.

I have had a similar issue with the font Open Sans. After a recent update to software in Creative Cloud, InDesign would not apply the bullets for this font correctly. It shows that the font is activated butfor some reason the bullets are not active (they show up with the pink box around them). Any clue why?
