I'm on Windows 11 with AdobeXD 57.1.12.2 and use FontBase 2.16.4 for font management.
Also Using almost all of the Creative Clould apps.
In Adobe XD almost all fonts installed with FontBase are marked like missing at first start. All other Adobe apps are working just great with those fonts, only XD not see them. The problem was present some time ago, then go away after updates and si present again form a month or so.
Also since XD is not founding the fonts from the system try to activate them from Adobe fonts with a mixed up results. I mean they are activated in Adobe Fonts but XD see them only after restart.
But this create a total mess since the fonts are present in the system and then in Adobe fonts too make them to be listed duplicated. For example Nunito font will be listed with 2 Bold entries.
There is a kind of workaround by restarting Windows Font Cache services (there are 2) and the restarting Adobe XD. But the result is not working well. The fonts now are present in the list, I can pick them, but if I have Character style defined still have the Font Missing mark.
Also if XD closed and started again the problem is back again like in the first instance.
Do anyone have a premanent fix for this?
I would like to use my own fonts instead of Adobe Fonts when I have the font installed. Also like to avoid disabling Adobe Fonts after all and see all my active fonts in XD anytime.
By the way, installing the fonts in a regular way still require the Font Cache Service restart.
Other Adobe Apps are not rely on Windows Font Cache, they are still displaying all the active fonts even if teh Font Cache service is disabled.
