Hello,how do i use adobe fonts in canva? How can they be synchronized?

I am typing a document in the newest version of Adobe but the publisher only has fonts up to Adobe Version 6. How can I differentiate those fonts?

Was using the font Quincy CF last week and now am unable to find it on fonts.Adobe.com. Getting this error page  

quiero saber si las fuentes que descargue mientras tenga la licencia comprada me quedan sirviendo de por vida o solo me dan licencia de usarlas siempre y cuando tenga la licencia activa? es decir: si se me vence la licencia y sigo usando la tipografia premium pierdo la licencia de uso? o queda siendo mia ?

If i create a web project on adobe fonts and then integrate the typkit link on the website to load the fonts...What happens when i leave the company and they remove my adobe account from the corporate account?Is there a way to make the web projects under a corporate account or share ownership, so that i can use it like a google font cdn?Thanks

I've been using the Ethnocentric font - that I downloaded from somewhere a long time ago - for my company logo for years now... but I created my current logo with the outdated Fireworks app.(I always found Illustrator way too difficult to use, sticking to Fireworks instead)- Now I'm finally switching to Illustrator, in order to re-create the old logo's that I have, this time in a decent vector quality (rather than pixel quality that I had with Fireworks).However, I'm already bumping into a font issue... in the old Fireworks app, I could easily edit the Ethnocentric font into regular/italic/bold.But in Illustrator I can only access regular.* Now I've searched Google for options, and it seems that I have to buy a newer version of the Ethnocentric font?I found out the Ethnocentric font (modern version dated from 2010) is created by the company Larabie Fonts/Typodermic Fonts.When I go to their website, and look for the Ethnocentric font, I get redirected to Ethnocentric Fonts | Fontspring​

Hi,  I need to remove a user from our account as they have now left the company. They were responsible for web development and had created typekit web projects for multiple websites that we've designed and buit. Is it possibel to have these typekit web projects 'team' based ratehr than individual users? If that isn't possible, what is the simplest way to go about removing the user but ensuring that webfonts remain active on multiple live sites? cheersLee 

I’m working on a PC in Windows 10. I’m using the latest version of Adobe CC 2022. I’ve tried to open old Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop and Indesign files and have found that I sometimes have lost necessary fonts and images for those files over time. Can anybody share a practice to deal with this problem going forward instead of repeating the font and image in every file / folder?

Any type nerds out there able to identify this font? Accidentally did not save the working file or package the project, so am hunting the internet for it. Would be eternally grateful!  

Hello everyone, I am designing a replica of the business card from the 1950's television show, "Have Gun Will Travel". Below is a photo from the show. What font was used? Notice the subtle diamond shaped notches across the H and A. Also, there is a shadow under the letters too. Your help will be appreciated.Thank you,David

I created an InDesign booklet for a client and sent her a PDF. She uses very standard fonts: Calibri and Gill Sans. She is able to edit any text that is set in Calibri, but cannot access the Gil Sans at all. She has both fonts loaded on her system. I tried editing my own PDF and got the same error she is getting "All of part of the selection has no available system font. You cannot add or delete text using the currently selected font."Why not?Is there any way around this?Thanks!

hello,I recently purchased the Font Folio but purchased it on my personal profile by mistake, so I can't get an invoice!any idea how to transfer this to my work profile

How do I find Helvetica Neue 97 Black and the rest of the font family???When I search for Helvetica, only "one" Helvetica type comes up and it's not the one I need??Anyone else having problems with the Type 1 font now being discontinued? And there are no readily available replacements??

Hello, I need to use Futura PT for a website in the Romanian language (Webflow-made). I installed the font using the API. The problem is that Romanian characters (ăîâțș) are not working. The design is made in Figma and everything works perfectly. Is it something I'm missing? Thank you! 

Hello,I've been doing a search in Suitacse for PostScript fonts to get an idea of what's eventually going to be of no use with my Adobe suite. I've noticed that I have quite a large selection of OpenType-PS fonts. I'm assuming the PS stands for PostScript? Will these font types still be supported? Many thanks.

Hello,I'm wanting to self-publish a print book using the Helvetica™ Neue Std Ultra Light font which I can purchase the license for its use from the Adobe store. I'm just learning about licenses and commercial use, trying to get my head around it all. So, if I buy the license for this font through Adobe, does that mean I can publish/print my book and sell these books?From what I can gather, all Adobe fonts whether those that come with the bundle or those that a license is bought for through the store, are allowed to be used for commercial use. Correct me if I'm wrong. It seems that this is all good for web and video stuff but I just wanted to see if it was okay for the printing and selling of novels? I'm being pedantic but just want to be really explicit about these details so I don't have to worry about this legal stuff later.Also, if this is the case, then does that mean I can use any font that already comes with adobe in a book and sell the book? E.g. Segoe print, arial unicode ms, f

I thought this was an easy ident and it was going to be Cooper, but it's not, unless there's a weight I don't know about.Any ideas?Many thanks.  

Hello, all. I've been busting my brain the last few days about this - any idea what font this is?  Thanks! 

I have developed a client's brand around an adobe font. They are using a third party to create templated postcards for direct mail. This company requires a physical copy of the font and a signed license agreement. I cannot find this particular font for purchase anywhere. Is there a workaround you can recommend?

We have an old TrueType version of (Adobe's) Century Old Style. It was purchased in the nineties, and we had it modified to include extra glyphs (for additional languages) and also hinted for screen use. As far as I can tell this would have been allowed as until 2011 the license permitted customers to modify fonts licensed from the Adobe Type Library (https://helpx.adobe.com/fonts/using/adobe-type-resources-faq.html#FontPermissions). Now we want to further modify the font (add more missing glyphs, and convert it to OpenType with new hinting). We want to do this using an external company for this (as we lack the expertise), and this is where we are a bit uncertain about the lisencing as we would need to hand the font files over to a 3rd party (only for them to modify and return, not use). Would they need a separate license for this? And if so, if new licenses don't allow modification, how would we solve this?

Hi,the screenshot on the left shows the font properties of a PDF document which I created last year (not with a Adobe application).On the right the properties of the updated document on a new PC which has the latest versions of Open Sans installed (source: https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Open+Sans) The appearance of the "older" PDF is much better than the updated one: "TrueType" vs. "Type 1".I am wondering why Google do not have the, hmm, TrueType/OpenType version of this font in its repository (anymore?). Question: it would be better to search for the "older" versions of Open Sans (TrueType) which I used last year instead of using the latest versions (Type 1) – in  view of  https://helpx.adobe.com/at/fonts/kb/postscript-type-1-fonts-end-of-support.html AND to get a better quality of the PDF? Thanks!mycc        

Hi, I have seen this topic come up on the community quite often, though some of the answers, and from the Chat Line, are a little ambiguous. Can a designer (me) with a Creative Cloud subscription, use a font from Adobe Fonts to create a logo for a client - who will likely trademark the logo? I will also tweak the logo slightly to make it a little more unique, therefore the outlined font (not the software) will be a deriveraitive artwork. To be clear, the client does not get the font software, only the EPS/PDF version of the final logo. From what I have read here, this should all be allowed, though looking for some clarification - and a little assurance. 😉 Many thanksKarl

Hello,I have two questions.I'm using a font for a company school project. The webpage creats pdfs dynamically. I would like to use the specific font for the pdfs to maintain consistency in the design. To do that I need the font file to convert it. Is there a way to get a hold on the file from Adobe, can Adobe convert it to the right fileformat or do i need to by the font separatly? If I end my Adobe account do the fonts stop working? Thanx in advanceZion

Hello! I have two fonts that I regulary use, but one of the fonts does not have numbers. So I have font A that is only letters and font B that is letters and numbers. Is there an easy way I can combine these two fonts so that when I type using font A I can get the numbers from font B?Thank you!
