1. Access to previous version of fonts released

   Would it be possible to still have access to previous versions of fonts released (with an option to choose which version is needed).

   Due the nature of the way we work, many of products are re-purposed and have a long shelf-life, i.e. reprinted over a number of years.

   Release notes would be useful to help us understand the changes/differences between the versions, and whether this might impact the extent/text flow.

3. create new web project

   The UI for creating a new web project and adding/removing existing fonts needs serious attention. I've been searching for a way to do this and can't seem to find the way...

   There should be BIG COLORFUL BUTTONS with customization functionality. I do not understand why there are not buttons in the web projects section for users to add fonts or to create new web projects.

5. Make your fonts 'stick' in Adobe applications

   I've lost count of the number of times I enable certain Adobe fonts via your website only for them to be highlighted as 'missing' the next time I open my InDesign document that uses them! Is this a bug or a limit on the number of fonts I can enable? If you're getting rid of OTF support across your products then your own fonts need to be reliable. Also, on that subject, a comparison to OTF fonts would be useful in the search.

6. Two ways to create better navigation within the manage fonts section

   1. It would be helpful to filter and sort through the fonts in our font libraries the same way we search for them in the search bar on the landing page.

   2. It would be lovely to have a search bar in the manage fonts section. Even if we know the name of the fonts we have or don't have, when we want to find them, we only have the option to scroll to them or reorganize the list of fonts alphabetically. I've found this time-consuming, making the experience of working with the site too slow at times when I'm working on projects and have a tight schedule.

7. Collapse Families by default anywhere fonts are managed

   On the Adobe Fonts website, when looking at Active Fonts, every font is listed by default, grouped by family. When trying out fonts in a design, these can add up quickly, especially if you're trying different weights.

   It would be immensely helpful when attempting to clean up, rather than nuking ALL the fonts (which may be a nice feature for some, but I do have a few I keep around for most projects), it would be nice if the families were collapsed by default.

   An inline summary of the number of fonts in each family should be added to more immediately indicate to users how many fonts are actually being listed (by family). This is already in the CC app for managing Active fonts, but it doesn't collapse families by default.

   Thanks Seth. This makes a lot of sense and I've heard similar feedback through other channels. I'll keep you updated as we start to investigate how improvements can be made.

8. Ability to centrally manage Adobe "cloud fonts" in an Enterprise environment.

   1. I can manage fonts I have purchased OUTSIDE of Adobe, and deploy them to all workstations.

   2. Individual users can navigate to https://fonts.adobe.com/ and add Adobe fonts to their workstation.

   but.... as an Enterprise Administrator I do not have the ability to designate which workstations, or if all workstations, should have particular fonts from https://fonts.adobe.com/ already installed on the workstation.

   I would like to select a font (like Futura PT), and have it automatically load on workstations when the users sign in - without their need to intervene.

   In our environment consistency between workstations is imperative. Even though a user has the ability to manage Adobe fonts themselves (if they know how), If I KNOW a font should be installed, it can save time and reduce stress in a deadline or time sensitive situation by resolving this in advance.

   We hope to build a solution for organizing and sharing fonts in the near future. I'll make sure the team knows that Enterprise functionality would be a valuable addition.

9. Rename and duplicate web font projects

   I would like the ability to rename existing web font projects. I would also like the ability to duplicate existing web font projects.

   Being unable to rename an existing web font project introduces risk and (what I think is) unnecessary busy-work to my web-based projects.

   My company publishes educational curricula to variety of platforms both printed and digital. All are produced as HTML templates which are proofed in a web browser and which rely upon Adobe web fonts for their typography.

   It is quite common that we don’t know at the onset of a project how many versions and platforms of a given curriculum we might have, but we need to be able to clearly communicate the distinct purpose and version of a given web font project as that curriculum grows and evolves into different platforms or iterations.

   For example, most recently we started a project for a curriculum intended for print publishing I’ll call My English Lessons. I created a web project called My English Lessons Fonts in Adobe Fonts and used the corresponding ID in the HTML templates for that curriculum. Because the final form of this project was intended for printing, not web hosting, there were a bunch of typographic needs specific to book publishing (like page numbers, title pages, running heads) that we supported in the My English Lessons Fonts web project. The project had 15 fonts, total. A few of the texts mentioned in the curriculum had Spanish characters, so we had to dial in the specific language support settings for each font in the project, too.

   When we found out that we were going to be publishing My English Lessons online, we needed a new version of the fonts project, but without all the extra typography that would make a web site ungainly to load.

   We needed to give this new version of the My English Lessons Fonts web project a name — like My English Lessons Website Fonts — that was specific to the web, so that the purpose of the web project was clear. To prevent any confusion as to the purpose of the original web project, we also needed to rename the original fonts project to My English Lessons Book Fonts.

   To accomplish this with the current Adobe Fonts feature set, I had to create a new web project for My English Lessons Book Fonts and manually add all 15 fonts/weights/styles, each with their own font family settings, emulating My English Lessons Fonts. It’s very easy to miss a weight or style, so I had two browser windows with my Manage Fonts settings side by side, so that I can compare. The font lists don’t fit on a single screen even on a sizable monitor, so there is much scrolling and loss of context as the weights/styles get separated from the names of the font family.

   I then have to replace the My English Lessons Fonts ID with the My English Lessons Book Fonts ID in my HTML templates. I try to keep the place where that is necessary to only one line of code, but that can’t always be the case for reasons.

   For a period of time, I have to maintain both My English Lessons Fonts and My English Lessons Book Fonts in my Adobe Fonts projects as the HTML templates go through the code review, QA, and deployment process. Once the updated templates are live, I can delete the now obsolete My English Lessons Fonts project from Adobe Fonts.

   Then I have to create a new web font project manually for My English Lessons Website Fonts making sure to manually add only the fonts/weights/styles that are necessary for content.

   My brain explodes when I think I might need to do this all again exponentially because we introduce a version 2 and need to include a version number or year or something in the web project names.

   With the ability to (at the very least) rename and (ideally) duplicate an existing web project, I wouldn’t have to know the future of a project at inception. I could have accomplished the evolution of a single generically named project to two variants of that project — and not had to do any code updates!!! — in less time than it’s taken me to write this darn feature request.

   I hope you seriously consider this feature request! I’m not sure how practical it would be for us to continue using Adobe web fonts projects at scale, otherwise.

10. Disable Variable Concept Fonts in Photoshop

    For many pro users Photoshop comes with a lot of unnecessary variable fonts. It would be nice to be able to control them on a user level and not be forced by Adobe to have them installed. I don't need them and they get in the way.

11. How about not deleting fonts that I am actively using?

    Here's my idea: when I start designing a new book, and I pick a certain font, and spend several days developing the design, it would be nice if the font didn't suddenly disappear from Adobe Fonts, with no notification and no explanation.

    Here's another idea: how about, when I spend about ten minutes just navigating Adobe's telephone menu to speak to an operator, someone at the other end could actually pick up the phone rather than just letting it ring and eventually go dead?

12. Allow tidying of previously active fonts

    Suggestion: make it possible to remove fonts from the "previously active" list in the Creative Cloud app.

    Sometimes you try and then firmly reject a font, or have fonts you used long ago for just one project and are really unlikely to need again. It would be nice to be able to remove these even from the "previously active" list, as it grows longer!

13. Please notify me if you turn off my fonts

    I use Adobe fonts in other applications. I wasn't able to edit text because you had decided to turn off my fonts and force me to redownload them without actually telling me. I had to do a whole bunch of troubleshooting because of your lack of communication.

    When you decide to turn off your users fonts, can you please at least email me to let me know? I don't want to have to waste like 45 minutes testing a bunch of stuff.

14. Fix Font Syncing UX

    The current font syncing UX through creative cloud is extremely frustrating. After downloading a dozen font families, those families are constantly disappearing off of my computer (even though the families are still selected as active) and requiring me to re-download/install them individually by font weight/style. This means having to click the "download/install" button 10+ times for every single font family, meaning 100's of clicks for a full library, which has to be re-done every few months. On top of that, the fonts are re-arranged within the list immediately after the download button is clicked (I'm assuming because they're ordered by last modified date?), making it completely unusable for anything larger than two font families, as the font you're trying to download instantly jumps to the top of a long list.

    Potential fixes for this problem:
    1. If a font is selected as activated, don't remove it from the system. (Adding this as a preference would be fine too if need be). I can only assume this is a licensing thing because why would you un-download an activated font automatically??
    2. If that's not possible, have a "Re-download All" button that downloads all active fonts, or at the very least add a download button next to each family as opposed to by individual weight.
    3. Don't reorder the list as download buttons are being clicked (or just order by name so it doesn't reorder by last modified following every click) so the fonts aren't jumping around as you're trying to re-download.

    Any/all of these should be fairly easy fixes to one of the worst UX's I've ever been subjected to. (end rant and thanks for the consideration, we all appreciate it!!)

    PS If a "download all" feature exists and I've just missed it, disregard all that, but haven't found a way to download more than one font weight at a time.

15. Provide a way to force-enable fonts that are part of Adobe Fonts (not a Custom Font)

    While custom fonts can be uploaded and assigned to user groups making sure that whenever they sign into Adobe Creative Cloud that these fonts are loaded and activated this falls show with fonts that are part of Adobe Fonts. (i.e. Source Sans 3)

    Why is this important? While users can enable such fonts on their own ... they will first ask IT support about the missing fonts. We would very much be able to deploy such fonts to so that we can make certain they have all corporate fonts as soon as they log into Adobe CC.

16. Let us use our fonts on mobile apps for Android

    For Android apps, it seems additional fonts are disabled. It would be really nice to be able to use any Adobe font on Android apps. All of them, but for example it would be nice to make an ad on Adobe Express from wherever I am without having to use a computer. It's 2022, a lot of professionals are on the go all the time. Be nice to be able to crank out an ad at the drop of a hat with the fonts the company I work for actually uses without having to drag a clunky laptop everywhere or use the janky browser app that cuts off half of the workspace.

19. List of Adobe subcription fonts for Type 1 substitution team project!

    Multiple team members making substitutions = inconsistency, UNLESS we can create a cross reference of our chosen Type 1 > Open Type substitutions, including what tweaks each person should make to accommodate ensuing changes to line wrap, leading, styles, etc. We can't have one person changing tracking to accommodate a new font, while another sizes the font down. Or chooses a different font...

    I know the list might change, but can we at least download a "current" list of possible choices? Surfing online through our subscription fonts to activate and test is going to be a full-time job for the thousands of packaging art and marketing documents we maintain for hundreds of customers--some of whom are VERY picky. GIVE OUR TEAM A CHECKLIST TO START WITH, AT LEAST.

    Adobe, please don't create this challenge without adequate tools for users. We aren't all just concerned with picking pretty fonts from little packages...

    Thanks for sharing your feedback. I've attached a list of the fonts included in our subscription library as of today. This list will quickly become outdated as we add new fonts all the time, but we hope it gives you a starting point to manage this transition. I'm sorry that we're not able to help further, but I've shared your comments with our product team for consideration.
