  • Fonts won’t activate because “something went wrong,” but I don’t know what to do!
    Did you try activating the font at fonts.adobe.com instead? You will have to sign in there with your Adobe ID. - Source: Reddit / 5 days ago
  • adobe site list
    i'm aware of and use a few of these, ie. fonts.adobe.com, color.adobe.com, podcast.adobe.com. - Source: Reddit / 21 days ago
  • Photoshop can't handle creating text with very many fonts installed.
    Are some of these Adobe fonts? It's very easy to go to fonts.adobe.com and deactivate the ones you don't need to use today. I think it's safe to say that none of us need 2500 fonts installed every single day. - Source: Reddit / 22 days ago
  • Font organizer. Do you use one and if so, how does it help your workflow?
    I don't see any way to browse Adobe Fonts inside of the Creative Cloud app?? It only shows the fonts I currently have activated, and then there's a "Browse more fonts" link that opens fonts.adobe.com in my browser. - Source: Reddit / about 1 month ago
  • Illustrator Font suggestions
    If you have a creative cloud subscription then https://fonts.adobe.com/. - Source: Reddit / about 2 months ago
  • Text assets?
    Use your Adobe account and download them? You can click the link in your Creative Cloud app (under the Web tab) or here is a direct link: https://fonts.adobe.com. The word ‘showreel’ looks like it’s Phonk. You can use a tool like ‘What the font’ to determine the others. - Source: Reddit / 2 months ago
  • I have some options for my short film's poster, which one's the best?
    If I can give you some advice, also try other fonts and also other images, the image you have chosen has that light which I guess is the sun in the trees, but for a while it looked like a strange halo or flare to me, which might look strange to people looking at it, I also recommend you to try other fonts which you can find on many platforms including one ''Adobe Fonts'', maybe some fonts that are more balanced... - Source: Reddit / 3 months ago
  • I need to identify these fonts for a project. Does anyone know what their names are? Many thanks!
    For the rest, try using WhatTheFont, FontSquirrel Matcherator, or Adobe Font's image search to narrow it down? - Source: Reddit / 4 months ago
  • Suggestions for fonts
    If you have a subscription to Adobe Creative Cloud you should also have access to Adobe fonts which lets you use (turn on) fonts that can be used with other Adobe products (Photoshop, Illustrator, etc.). - Source: Reddit / 7 months ago
  • CC fonts location and conversion
    If you need actual font files, or web fonts, you can purchase a font license for those from https://fonts.adobe.com/. - Source: Reddit / 8 months ago
  • Made a poster of a back to school supply giveaway. What do you think? It's my first real attempt at poster making in photoshop.
    If you have an Adobe subscription (which I assume you do since you’re using Photoshop) you can go to fonts.adobe.com and look through the fonts on there, loads to choose from! You just click the little “activate font” toggle and the font will show up in your Adobe programs. - Source: Reddit / 8 months ago
  • How does everyone use Adobes Cloud service?
    If you go to fonts.adobe.com you can download font families at once by toggling "activate." Example. - Source: Reddit / 10 months ago
  • Adobe Fonts not activating?
    My solution is usually to reboot the PC. But then that's my go-to fix with any PC related issues, and it almost always works. If it doesn't, I go to fonts.adobe.com and deactivate the fonts and then reactivate them again, and then wait for the taskbar notification that those fonts have been activated. In extreme cases I disable and re-enable them using the Adobe CC Desktop app, but the UI is so poorly implemented... - Source: Reddit / 10 months ago
  • How do I import fonts into Adobe Illustrator
    Using fonts.adobe.comhttps://fonts.adobe.com/ and adding them there will import them for you automatically. - Source: Reddit / 11 months ago
  • does anyone know the font on the white book(s) ?
    You might wanna try this. https://fonts.adobe.com. - Source: Reddit / 12 months ago
  • Anyone know what fonts these are?
    You can also search Adobe's font library — https://fonts.adobe.com. - Source: Reddit / about 1 year ago
  • Issues Activating Fonts
    I have a similar issues concerning fonts with the Adobe Fonts website and the Creative Cloud desktop app. On the website, I can activate fonts just fine with no trouble at all. However, the fonts never appear on the desktop app which claims I have none active, despite them appearing on the website. They also don't appear as activated on Adobe Illustrator. - Source: Reddit / about 1 year ago
  • Anyone know the exact font from Baudrillard's America?
    You can do a screen grab of the text and use https://www.myfonts.com/WhatTheFont/ to try and identify it. Similarly you can use https://fonts.adobe.com but you might need a subscription. It appears to be ITC Fenice Pro Regular vertically extended, like "fauxfinnish" postulated. - Source: Reddit / about 1 year ago
  • MacBook apps you can't live without!
    Adobe Fonts - All the fonts you'll ever need. Except for all the others. Because you can never have enough fonts. - Source: Reddit / over 1 year ago
  • Letter I is exported as a rectangle
    How long has this been happening? Did you update recently? Have you tried saving with a new filename, closing the program and restarting to see if that changes anything? Have you gone to fonts.adobe.com to make sure the font is still activated on your system? - Source: Reddit / over 1 year ago
  • A question about a copyright law
    Assuming you're paying for Adobe's Creative Cloud subscription service to use Photoshop, you also have free access to Adobe Fonts, a collection of thousands of fonts that you can install and use in Photoshop. Beyond that, you can also buy more fonts from marketplaces like Fontspring, MyFonts and Creative Market. - Source: Reddit / over 1 year ago
