Question

Google fonts work in CC but not Office?

I can use all google fonts in all my CC apps, but cannot in Office (Word in particular).  I know this is not quite the correct place to pose a query but any other people have the same problem?   It is driving me mad!  I need to be able to give people simple versions of things in Word, that I have also done in InDesign, ie letterhead templates.  TIA

    Whatever your problem is, this discuss is almost five years old and has nothing to do with InDesign. If you have an InDesign related issue please start a new discussion with full details.

    And what good would those fonts do in Word? When you send the Word file, it's not going to take the fonts with them and Word does not throw missing font messages.

    You're right though, this is not the place. Try here:

    I have some clients who want to use a particular font I have used in InDesign for them. If it worked, they would also download the font.. I have tried Microsoft and not been able to get anywhere.  Given they work in CC, I thought someone may have some experience in this and be nice and help me.....

    You’re not going to find too many lovers of Word around here, unfortunately.

    If you want to tell us more, go for it, and maybe someone can help.

    Details: Version of Word and operating system to start with. Also, how are you installing the fonts?
