Trade Gothic LH Bold Extended

[defaulttti6pugex5w0]

I'm assuming this face is not part of Adobe and this 'change' that is coming in 2023 - why is this happening again!? - is just going to invalidate the tens of thousands of faces I have. Most design shops, art directors etc, and just going into this blind and waiting to see what will happen to all their fonts and, I guess, we all just scramble to find something else. 

Anyhow, does anybody know if Trade Gothic LH Bold Extended is a face we can have or do we need to go buy it... again?

thx

Hi There,

Thank you for writing to us . Trade Gothic Next is a revision of the original typeface, so it is similar to Trade Gothic LH Bold but not exactly the same.  If you need an exact match you have  to separately license that font from Monotype, probably via fonts.com. The former is not supported by the Adobe Fonts service.

I hope this answers your question. Please let us know if you need more clarification.

is Trade Gothic LH Bold something I can activate through Adobe?

Hi There,

I would say no you have no option to activate the same Trade Gothic LH Bold in Adobe Fonts. But, you could always If you need an exact match you have  to separately license that font from Monotype, probably via fonts.com

You could use it through third-party websites always.

So when I go into the "Adobe Fonts (web) Thousands of fonts to explore and use in any application" and type in something obvious, Helvetica, is there no version Adobe has that can replace the existing that are no longer supported? InDesign, (not with all files even though they have unsupported fonts in them), gives a warning but the fonts still work. I'm so confused by this stuff - and the idea of going back and licensing thousands of fonts seems crazy.
