In the last month or so I have have had many fonts that are in my Font Book not showing or available in Illustrator. Many of these I have been using for over 10 years. Has Illustrator done something to not read specific fonts? What can I do to get these fonts showing and usable again?

You haven't used them in the last 10 years? Then maybe they are PostScript Type 1 fonts? Those don't work anymore in current Adobe applications.

No, I have been using these fonts for the past 10+ years with no issues but now there are issues.

 

They are PostScript Type 1 fonts though. Why all of a sudden won't these Fonts work now in Adobe Illustrator?

What types of fonts are not being shown? Are they all a single type like OTF?
