Mar 22, 2022 Mar 22, 2022

 

Hello!
I have a problem converting the adobe fonts to json because I need the ttf-file for that!
Google fonts I can just download the ttf-file and convert it to facetype.js on github. But there is no way to get the ttf-file from Adobe!
Can someone help me?
Thanks!

Why would you look to use this?

You do not need to do any form of this old school font replacement any more. Rendering headers as canvas in this way has zero SEO potential for your site and if being applied to more, even worse.

 

What is wrong with having fonts and using CSS font family?

Hello!

Thanks for your answer. The Adobe-Fonts are very handy, but I need the json-file for THREE JS! This is the only way to load the font into Javascript!

Have you any idea ?

 

Thanks!

Hi,
Now that makes more sense. Your using Three.js to produce something. Got you. Should lead with that 🙂

Google fonts are open licence for you to use. Adobe fonts are not. This is why and using it them like many other custom fonts will legally require a licence etc.

What sort of font are you after as it will probably be easier to just use an altenrative.

Adobe Fonts is a very useful service, but you cannot get the font files. There is a good reason for this. The last time I looked, there are something like 20,000 fonts available under the Adobe subscription - most of them are commercial ($$) fonts, compared to Google who work only with free fonts. The price to actually get font files for all the fonts in Adobe Fonts would be something like $70,000-$80,000. So, Adobe will not give away the font files (most of which are not theirs to give away) with a small subscription! Most of the fonts are available for paid licensing from the original foundries or resellers.

This is why all the creative cloud is a reference so you can use them in Photoshop but you share that PSD with someone without the fonts they are only online referenced and they can not modify and will need those share permission options etc.

The font service they use is licence based for websites.

So outside of that, yourslef for example in your project it is worth sticking to the free stuff or cheaper options
