Hi, thank you in advance for answering. I am beating my head against the wall. Univers is not showing up in my adobe programs, so I've been trying to add Univers again. It shows up in FontBook fine with no errors but I can't seem to get it to add to illustrator or indd. I've dragged it into the CC app and says an error when I try to do it manually there. I've had the font on my computer for a long time, never a problem. Just tested it in Word and it works fine, but who wants to design something in word?

Any help is much appreciated. KK

It's a little surprising there isn't a version of Univers (or a look-alike "clone") available to sync via the Adobe Fonts service. The most similar type family available at Adobe Fonts is New Haas Unica, which is a style hybrid of Helvetica and Univers. There are "clones" of Univers, such as the "Zurich BT" family by Bitstream.
