Question

Adobe font automatic activation

Every time I work in Photoshop 2022 the missing fonts is activating.

And I deactivated. And afrter the missing fonts is activating. And I deactivated. And after the missing fonts is activating...

Like a silly person who always turns on the lights during the day.

This is very annoying and unnecessary.

 

I couldn't find an option to turn this off in Photoshop. I can't turn this off once and for all?

 

Thx

      Hi. Photoshop doesn't have an option to disable the Adobe font auto-activation. You can disable all Adobe fonts on your computer but, of course, that could be an excessive solution.

      Hi, Photoshop doesn't have an option to disable the Adobe font auto-activation. - yes this is the problem. 

      I also use Indesign with activated fonts, I can't disable all Adobe fonts. This is not a solution.

      But, thx.

        Hi. We need more information. Is this loading the missing fonts for documents that USE those missing fonts? Or, is this just happening when you open the application?

        Hi,

        This happens every time I open a document with missing font/s. OSX 10.15, Photoshop 23.4.2.

        This is as-designed. Photoshop needs to have SOMETHING loaded for your type layers.


        Then the design is PRETTY BAD, because it didn't work that way in previous photoshops.

        Why activate font/s instead of replacing it with a commonly used one? Times, Helvetica, Minion...
