Every since I upgraded to the newest AE CC 2018, I have had nothing but very annoying and unexplainable font problems:
Some of the problems I've seen:
- Not finding fonts that are enabled on the system (and available in Photoshop et al)
- When opening a project, it will say fonts aren't enabled and it needs to sync from Typekit, even though the font (Raleway) wasn't even in the project at all and WAS enabled in RightFont. When I clicked ignore, it replaced all of my current fonts in the project (Proxima Nova which is synced from Typekit) with Raleway.
- Also when opening a previous project, in a random composition, it will choose to replace all of the type with crazy weird glyphs and characters. In this case it was Proxima nova. I tried to do a new text box in the same comp, same glyphs. I would select a different comp (in the same project) and type with Proxima Nova - no problem.
CC 2018 (all products) have been the buggiest I have ever seen (most of them revolving around typesetting). This is absurd for such a huge company, with such a huge market share to put out such a crappy upgrade and cause simple things that worked perfectly before to go absolutely haywire.
I use Typekit syncing and RightFont
I have 2017 iMac 5k on the newest OSX.
