Where are the Adobe CC font files locally stored on mac? How can I find it? I am using Adobe CC products only for the font. But I can't find it on local.

This question arised with me after I found out you can't use Adobe Fonts as default font for your brands in Adobe Spark. You can however upload 'custom fonts' and other party fonts. Which is rediculous. If you have Adobe CC you have the right to use all of the Adobe Fonts, except for the place where you want to use them: your brand on social media.

Hi Div,

Where are the Adobe CC font files locally stored on mac?

When you say “Adobe CC font files”, do you mean the ones from Adobe Fonts (formerly Typekit)?

You didn't tell what OS you're using. My Windows 10 computer shows me the fonts where I would expect:

As long as I see the font in my applications, it's not important to know the exact physical location.

Sir, I am talking about "https://fonts.adobe.com/fonts/realist". Where can I find activated(synchronised) fonts from "https://fonts.adobe.com/" in my local folder?

Not sure they are stored locally. I take it you have to Activate the font on one of the links you posted and then it becomes available to you in any program you are using.

That works for me in MS Word.

But it does NOT show up in my OS Fonts folder.

If you want to Browse the Adobe Font libraries open the CC desktop app and select the Fonts header then Browse Fonts button.

Where can I find .OTF, .TTF, and .FNT file in local finder?

AFAIK all Fonts are stored in the Fonts folder for the OS you are using.
