Type & Typography

Hello. I have the following problem with Adobe Type 1 Fonts (stored as xxxx.pfm and xxxx.pfb files) under Windows 10. The fonts are installed and usable in any document (Word, Publisher…). After restarting Windows, these fonts are no longer accessible and I get the message “Unknown font” when opening these documents. To make them accessible again, they must be reinstalled. However, there is no problem with True Type fonts (xxxxx.ttf).

A client has provided a low resolution scan of their company "graphic" they'd like to use in an upcoming project. The typeface has a slight arc warp and small caps.Any help tracking down the typeface would be appreciated; Thanks in advance!

Does anyone have a solutions for my problem?I opened font called Coniferous from Typekit and in works just fine in CC programs but... I also need it in QuarkXPress and Word. Those programs there is only one cut visible it looks like bold or black and name is only Coniferous.After that problem I tried same thing with font Dederon and same problem...I am using PC.

Hi I have been working on developing a font for the Bravanese (Chimwiini) language. This font will consist of Latin and Arabic characters. I have noticed that some of the Arabic characters are not fully understood by  Adobe applications such as Adobe Illustrator and so it's open type features do not work as they should. These problematic characters also exist in the Times New Roman font but again their open type features don't work on Adobe Illustrator. The characters are:  ࢶ ࢷ ࢸ ࢹ ࢺ Is their any action that could be taken to ensure that these character's open type features are recognised? I would greatly appreciate any assistance that you could provide. Thank you,

I've just started experiencing a few issues with type between InDesign 2020 and Acrobat DC. I export a PDF as I usually do, but for some strange reason  Aktiv Grotesk from TypeKit returns this message and doesn't display correctly and I can't for the life of me work out why!

Well, friends, I'd like to share with you my view of Adobe these days, after having been an Adobe customer for just about a quarter of a century.This will probably be my last post here.    Once I'm logged off sometime tonight, I do not plan to log in ever again.  I'm sick and tired of being logged off and having to log on, the miserably slow peformance and undescribable ugliness of the new forum layout, the difficulties in navigating the site, the departure in droves of great contributors, the paucity of interesting posts and the heavy handed censorship by a certain Hungarian goon operating out of Romania, a totally uncharacteristic, un-Dutch Dutchman and other new forum bouncers.Adobe has effectively killed these forums, just as they killed the Adobe Studio Exchange by sheer incompetence.Adobe is now a decaying, elephantine, unresponsive, gargantuan and disorganized bureaucracy that is slowly but inexorably crumbling.  That decay affects software development as wel

Are there Adobe fonts available that depict universal symbols such as restrooms, campgrounds, etc.I used to have an Adobe font that had all those symbols both black image on white background and the reverse depiction.  If they are available, can someone please point me in the right direction? Thank you,mptc

Hey guys, I am working on developing a new site for my business which sells multitool shovels - [link to website removed by moderator] I want to make the store look as professional as possible, so I hired a designer to make a new logo and want to revamp the typography of the store. I'm currently using Work Sans but I want to choose a font for the headings/buttons/large text and a second one for body/small text.   I was thinking of using Helvetica or Avenir Next because they are clear and North Face and Patagonia use them but I'm not sure it will fit the aesthetic of my store. Also, should I use the typeface of my logo for the header font (I need to ask what it is because an outside firm designed it). If anyone has some font suggestions I would be really grateful because I don't know too much about design.   Thanks for any tips or help!

Hi... I have a weird issue I can't seem to find an answer to. I have been doing design work using a font called Eras for a long time client of mine - I have had no font related issues at all. I recently bought a new computer (surface pro 5) so I could work away from home, and installed all my Adobe applications, and synced up to typekit etc. All fonts are working fine EXCEPT Eras...? And I tried to go to Typekit to see if I could discover the issue, but can't even find the font on Typekit - however it is still working no issues on my desktop and appearing in Typekit when I check though there. Not sure what is happening or how I can fix it - but this one missing font it messing me up a lot! The font does display on my surface, but it comes up with an error in my library and I can't use it to create new texts. 

The customer is a video game developer and publisher, operating in South Korea. They want to develop a new game with TRAJAN PRO font and wants to know if they can use this font in their website/mobile apps and any other platform that they woiuld publish their games on.They’re active CC users as of now. Do they have to buy additional font license for this usage?What’s the product name (e.g. fontpolio, typekit, etc.)?Can the customer directly request quote to Adobe?Or, where this customer can buy font license?

I have activated the font in Adobe Fonts and it's not working correctly in any programs. This image explains it.

I download TrueType Fonts and double click them to install them into the FontBook application. When they install, sometimes they install as a TrueType Font still, but then once I go to use it in any of the CC Applications, the only version available is the OpenType Font. OR I will download the TrueType Font, and when I install it into FontBook, in the information, it says the Kind: is OpenType Font - in that case, I can see in finder the font is .tff and then in FontBook it says OpenType Font.Has anyone ever had this happen before? Is this even an Adobe issue, or is this a third party issue or if this an apple issue?Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I am a marketing director at my company. I have several documents that have fonts that all off a sudden unavaliable. What happened? These were adboe fonts that were preinstalled. I went to Adobe fonts and there seems to be several fonts that have been removed. Any answers of why these fonts were taken away? They aren't even able to be pulled up using outside sources to find the font.

Hi. I would love some help identifying this sans serif font. It is similar to Neutra, Josefin and Futura, but I cannot find a font that matches both the "M" and "G" in this sample. I have tried several font identification apps and searched the Adobe library. Thanks in advance for your assistance!

Hi,i used FF netto in my Typekit Webfonts for years. Today I experimented with some other fonts, deleted the FF netto from my bucket and later I tried to add FF Netto again - but the font is gone! Where is this font? The direct link was https://fonts.adobe.com/fonts/ff-netto and how can I add this font to my Webfonts again? Markus

I'm pretty sure I do not have Fontase installed -- I did at one time in the past.However, fonts in the Users/usename/fontbase/fonts folder are still showing up as available in Illutrator. When try to delete them, I get an "in use" error. I closed the Adobe CC apps, but it still happens. NOTE: These font are not visible in the Windows 10 fonts folder...so I cannot delete them there (I'm trying to remove all the fonts for which I have no license.) Any ideas? ThanksSteve Sander

Hello, I have a few questions about font licensing for commercial use: 1. It's my understanding that you only need one EULA for any of the fonts you use for commercial purposes from Adobe fonts. Does that mean that the font can be used for perpetuity or is there a time limit?2. I'm assuming based on all I read that I can trademark my logo using an Adobe font and use it on my packaging and social media banners and ads for example. Is that correct?3. Lastly, if for some reason I am no longer subscribed with Adobe Creative Studio, would that mean that the right to use that font in my logo, packaging and other marketing materials would be over as well?  Thank you so much!

Good day all, Iv'e been trying to install a font, "Maria Rose Regular" to my Mac. Font says it's free for personal use, but everytime I click install font, the install proc comes up as if it's installing, then vanishes and still there's no font. Tried restarting, redownloading, etc. and nothing works. Does Anyone else have this issue and is there a fix for it? Thanks in advance.

We use EmojiOne font in AI CC 2015 and outline the emoji characters for use in metal etching. When testing with AI CC 2019 or later we find the B&W version of the EmofiOne font is inaccessible and ONLY the color characters are available which are useless to us. We could jump through several hoops to convert them to B&W, but in a production environment this is not practical. Why is there a "Fallback" font embedded in EmojiOne that is completely unavailable in the latest versions of Adobe Illustrator? B&W emojis are extremely useful in our market and I'm sure wer'e not alone. Adobe, if you're listening, please give us a B&W version of EmojiOne (since it's already available in your older software).   Edit: Here's a simple example of EmojiOne characters in AI CC 2020. The B&W images were outlined in AI CC 2015 and pasted into 2020. Adobe, just give us a "Black and White" option for this font.

Why are there two different versions of Nimbus Sans Condensed available between my computer and colleagues? Font availability within the same corporate license, they SHOULD be the same. Isnt this part of the reason we use Adobe font managing, to both take care of licensing AND potential conflicts? My computer: Nimbus Sans Condensed LColleagues: Nimbus Sans Condensed  We are both using CC 2020 on macOS Mojave 10.14.6

Hello, I'm not sure if this question belongs here or in the Fonts community. We are just now having to upgrade to CC from CS6. Our magazine uses various weights and styles of Helvetica and Helvetica Neue. We have them all in Type 1 fonts, but many years old. I was able to install them in Windows 10 but they don't appear in InDesign or Illustrator. According to other posts I've read, they should also be added to C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe InDesign 2020\Fonts, so I did that. They still aren't available to CC apps (I had closed InDesign before installing). If I have to purchase them again (they aren't available from Adobe, as far as I can see), I will, but I'm hoping not. Thanks for any advice you all can provide.

Hi "Microsoft YaHei UI" is from adobe fonts ?

I don't know how to find fonts that I can use for redbubble stickers etc...and I don't understand all of the rules with using fonts.  From what I understand, using a font in a design is okay, but using a single glyph isn't? Doesn't make sense.   Anyway, for example if I did a single word or phrase as a sticker in that font, stylized/edited by me, or in the original font format, is that allowed?
