Adobe XD activate font feature - what does it do?

[cristib1]

Hey guys,

I noticed recently that next to each charatcer style you define in the document asset, there's a little cloud icon, and it's tooltip title says "Activate font". I clicked it out of curiosity, even though the font in question was activated, and a loading circle appears and animates, and nothing happens. What in the world does it mean?

Thanks,

Chris

Hi Chris,

Sorry for the delay in response. Once you activate the font you like then you should be able to use that font in other document in XD. Please see this article: https://helpx.adobe.com/fonts/user-guide.html/fonts/using/activate-fonts-desktop.ug.html 

Hope it helps.

Thanks,
