P: Missing (type-1) fonts after Photoshop 23.0 update

[AltonChristensen]

Legit fonts from legit foundries that appeared in PS2021 are not appearing in 2022.

Downgrading.

MacOS 10.15.7

Yes it is ridiculously frustrating.
This is the problem : Adobe stopped supporting some older font file formats. https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/using/asian-scripts.html

These older fonts continue to work in other Adobe app’s like After Effects and Premier.

NOTE: The older font types continue to work in Photoshop 2021. So downgrading may be a solution.

In the meantime it would be great if Adobe would provide a way to migrate these older font file types.

Having used Photoshop since 1992 I'm staggered by Adobe's decision to stop supporting Type1 fonts - anyone who works in the design industry will have collected a huge number of various type fonts over the years and for Adobe to say 'hey try an alternative' is not going to wash with clients. It's not about getting the message out there - it's actually about understanding what users need - this is a classic case of a big corporate becoming deaf to what it's core users require.

Some fonts on PS 2022 will show up in font menu but will be greyed out and not usuable, even though they are active within my font manager. I must open and use the file in PS 2021 to be able to use the font. (PS 2021 does not have this issue)

I'm using the latest M1 Macbook Pro

Adobe has announced the end of Postscript Type 1 fonts… It was supposed to take effect on January 2023 but maybe they advanced it…

Issue is still present in March of 2022! and it's to frustrating - I ended up opening the file in illustrator and saved it as pdf from there - text is selectable and crisp. But what a pain!

Yes the issue is still present. I doubt that Adobe is going to add support for Type 1 fonts back into their type engine.

The font family "Meta" in my user fonts is no longer recognized in PS 2022. I opened an old file that was previously perfect (about two years ago) and am getting error messages. I cleared the font cache, reset preferences, closed and reopened, deleted and re-installed the font, updated PS, restarted the computer, and it still is not recognizing it. 

I'm running Mac OS Monterey 12.3.1 and the very latest version of PS. 

Please help! I can't use a substitute font because this one is baked into my logo and I need it to match. Thank you!

Is the font a Postcript Type1 font? https://community.adobe.com/t5/photoshop-ecosystem-discussions/postscript-type-1-font-support-has-co...

[sshutterbug06]

Yes, that's exactly it. Thank you so much. It's good to know what the problem is, anyway.

Per my experience, checking the indenting has solved the problem for me. Looks like it comes with the 'justify' options. What has worked for me has always been to press the "Enter" key from the first word that begins the line that gets missing.
