Hi all, my Adobe XD does not warn me about what fonts are missing in my PSD files, and it replaces all missing fonts to Arial fonts, so i cannot identify missing fonts.

How can i enable missing fonts alert when opening a PSD file?

Any support can be appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

This feature is activated by default. Also I think if your psd file include that fold that means that they are almost installed on your machine.

With the latest release of Adobe XD, we’ve streamlined the task of loading missing fonts from the Adobe Font Library along with managing non-Adobe fonts, all directly within the application.

To ensure a seamless experience when working with Adobe fonts, XD automatically activates the missing fonts available in Adobe Fonts Library on your machine without your intervention.

As long as you are online, opening a document that has missing fonts which are available in Adobe Fonts (to which you have access to via your Creative Cloud Subscription), XD automatically activates them on your machine.

Fonts that are activated from Adobe Fonts are highlighted with a blue activation icon, and as soon they are ready to use, they are available in your document, with no intervention from your end.

Thanks for your response  Ares Hovhannesyan​. With xd files, i can see  missing fonts at Assets Tab like the video you shared above. However, i cannot see any assets in PSD files which i downloaded on the Internet. 2 weeks ago, Adobe XD still alert me about what fonts are missing when opening file like this picture

But now, probably after i update Adobe XD to the lastest version, it does not show this alert anymore. I can only know missing fonts when i open the files on my Photoshop CC.

The psd file must become available if you will click 'Ok" They must be change to system fonts until that fonts become available after downloading from Adobe Fonts on your OS. Interesting to know are they available on Adobe Fonts?
