How to access Typekit fonts without CC desktop

I only have OSX 10.6.8 and am not planning to upgrade.
This appears to mean I cannot install the Creative Cloud desktop app so cannot use Typekit.
Is there a work around.

Hello,
I'm sorry that you ran into trouble with this. Unfortunately, it isn't possible to sync desktop fonts on OS X 10.6, since the Creative Cloud software isn't available for that version. You would need to update your OS to a higher version in order to install the software to sync fonts from Typekit.
I'm sorry that there isn't another option we can offer you at this time, but please let me know if you have any other questions. Best,

How to add typekit fonts to muse.

Hello I am currently trying to add font from typekit to my muse site. I am using a font that is not included in muse but from the typekit website. I changed my paragraph style name, and also the selector in type kit, published my kit, and I inserted the code on the top of my website. Could someone please help? Im uploading the site to business catalyst but Its not changing the font.

Hi,
To add the typekit fonts that are not listed in Muse, you must follow the standard code embedding procedure suggested by typekit here, http://help.typekit.com/customer/portal/articles/6780-adding-fonts-to-your-site
I see that you have inserted the typekit JS as HTML on the page. You should consider adding the same to the head section of the page. For that go to the Page Properties -> Metadata -> HTML for <head>, and add it there.
As far as the adding the edge is concerned I see that there is an Iframe on the page trying to load the banner.html which is not there on the root.
I'm assuming that's the Edge project you are referring to. Try to upload the banner.html on the root level on the server and let me know how that goes.

Printer - how to access defaultprinter fonts and loaded fonts in one job ( ie Arial 15 / etc )

We have a file that contains font definitions that get loaded to the printer.
These show on our PCL font list as "permanent soft fonts",
and we access them by their font id number. If we just use the fonts that we loaded,
our print step ( print layout/etc) is ok. If we try to access a font that exists
on the printer, say Arial, which has both an escape sequence and an
"internal xx" number, our print layout (grid), gets shifted to the right.
We access the Arial font by :
   esc%12345X and then the escape sequence for Arial font
1. is there a way to refer to Arial ( or other printer default font )
    while still in PCL mode using our loaded fonts ( by font id ) ?
2. should we add Arial to our font load file ?
    if yes, how do we do that ?
any help is appreciated, thank you

A friendly soul on ubuntuforums pointed out to me, that the wireless configuration is only necessary when the printer is NOT connected to a (W)LAN. So all I really had to do was to configure the printer in the CUPS administation page, and it worked. Problem solved. Silly me.

How give access to roomate without given access to personnal stuff?

I'm the administrator of my iMac but I would like to give access to my computer to my roomate without given her to personnal stuff.
I successfully put a password to open the computer, but how give access with her own password and restrictions?
Can someone give me tipps how to configure my Mac?
Thank you

She has access but only to her content, she still cannot access your private information. She can use software applications you install as admin, but not material you have created with the software.
That is the purpose of a multi-user system like Mac OS X, multiple users whose access is confined to the material the own, but not to the material others own. The only exception being an admin user who can go pretty much anywhere. Just don't give her admin rights and powers.

How can I enumerate Fonts without The EFT not suport?

I get all fonts by "Font.enumerateFonts(true)". But "FTE (Flash Text Engine) does not support Type 1 fonts or bitmap fonts such as Type 3, ATC, sfnt-wrapped CID, or Naked CID" How can excluding them.
Please help me. Thanks.

What happens when you iterate the results from Font.enumerateFonts(true) and pass each fontName through a call to:
import flash.text.engine.FontDescription;
import flash.text.engine.FontPosture;
import flash.text.engine.FontWeight;
FontDescription.isDeviceFontCompatible(aFontName, FontWeight.NORMAL, FontPosture.NORMAL)
Does this return true for the fonts that you want to filter on?

How to access my files from my desktop

I am not very smart on accessing files online. I want to access all of my files from my Compaq Presario over the internet, since I dont have much hard drive space left, is it possible for me to access all of my PC files over the internet? but I dont want to store them online, but access them from the internet to my PC. I am a business user, and I need a solution.

Another solution could be some kind of remote control program (perhaps an appropriate version of Timbuktu).
This web page could possibly provide you with some other ideas.
As a business user (and as a home user), you should pay attention to the security aspects involved whenever accessing files over the Internet. Extra tunnelling and/or encryption may be required.

How do you add/use typekit fonts that are not edge web fonts?

I am just trying out the new Muse CC 2014.1 (August) release and was keen to try the new font facilities. As far as I can see that while I can now add other fonts for which I have downloaded web font files via the Self Hosted Web Fonts function, Typekit fonts that are not "Adobe Edge Web Fonts" are effectively unavailable? Have I missed something.
As an example I want to use the Proxima Nova web font family. I have selected it on the type kit site, set them up to Sync via my Creative Cloud account. So for example if I select a font in Photoshop CC or Illustrator, the Proxima Nova fonts appear. Even ok in Word for Mac. They do not appear in Muse.
To add them as self hosted web fonts, I would need to physically download the relevant fonts files and install them on my desktop using the OS-X font tool. However as they are being sync'd via Creative Cloud this shouldn't be necessary should it? Also I don't see an option for doing so on the typekit site.
Any help or guidance would be very welcome.
PS: I seem to have a separate issue with the Creative Cloud app, which is not listing fonts under the Assets tab. But I don't think that is related as they are working fine for Photoshop, etc.

Hi David,
I'm sorry that you ran into trouble with this. To add fonts from Typekit to your Muse website, you will want to use the web fonts path instead of desktop fonts. (You can use a desktop font synced from Typekit in your Muse design, but it will exported as an image the same as any other system font.)
There are a couple options for using Typekit web fonts in Muse:
o) The Muse Insider wrote a post on how to insert the Typekit embed code from the Muse interface:
http://museinsider.com/how-to-add-typekit-fonts-to-your-muse-site.html
o) Or you can add the embed code to the Page Properties dialog within Muse, which will include it in the <head> of the page when you export your website. The steps are the same as this tutorial, but you will add the Typekit embed code to Muse instead of into your page directly:
TYPEKIT | Adding fonts to your site
Note that in either case the Typekit fonts will not be displayed in the Muse preview window. You'll need to publish your site to a server in order for the Typekit fonts to be loaded into the page.
If those look like more coding that you are comfortable with, you might try one of the fonts which you can select from the font menu instead. Here are some that are similar to :
https://edgewebfonts.adobe.com/fonts#/?xHeight=high&contrast=low&class=sans-serif&width=re gular
We are also working on a more complete integration of Typekit with Muse in the future, but I can't say yet when that will be available.
>> PS: I seem to have a separate issue with the Creative Cloud app, which is not listing fonts under the Assets tab. But I don't think that is related as they are working fine for Photoshop, etc.
Do you see a "loading" icon in the tab (e.g. a blue spinner wheel)? It sounds similar to this thread; you might try these suggestions:

I hope that this helps; let me know if you have any other questions. Best,

Can I use Type -- 'convert to outline' in Illustrator on Typekit fonts I've 'designated for desktop use'? I've not been able to as of yet.

I'm trying to print vinyl letters for a gallery I'm a member of and love the Cronos Pro regular font. i've designated this for desktop use and created 24 name files at 200pt. The person working with the vinyl asked if I could 'convert to outline' possibly to make the font a bit larger, I don't really know. When I tried to do this, I found that choice grayed out on the type menu. I am wondering if this means the Typekit fonts 'designated for desktop use' simply do not have the permission to be 'converted to outline'.

Cutting always requires proper paths/ outlines. This has nothing to do with the font or large format printing per se. Beyond that there should be no limitation in using fonts - as long as you can mangle them in AI, it means that somewhere those outlines exist internal to the program so the type can actually be rendered. Whatever prevents this may more likely be inherent in how you treat your text. you would have to provide more specific info on that. Either way, ask in the AI forum for more detailed answers.

Why can I still not access any of the decent Typekit fonts?

I've been waiting and waiting hoping that Adobe will finally get around to including all of the typekit fonts within Muse. For example I've been after the Prenton font, but notice that it's still not available from within Muse, and the same applies for many of the really good fonts.
Why are they not available?
Thanks

Hi,
I am sorry we don't have the same seamless integration with the full Typekit library as we do with Edge Web Fonts. There are two main reasons for that:
1. Muse is a desktop application, and any use of a font in Muse Design mode is considered "desktop use". Most fonts in the Typekit library are licensed for "web use" only.
2. Edge Web Fonts are mostly open-source and can be used by anyone, on any domain, for unlimited page views. On the other hand, web fonts in the Typekit library need to be configured for specific domains and may be subject to page view limits. This configuration — in the form of Typekit "kits" — is done manually. We don't have the necessary means to create kits automatically (something that's needed for a fully seamless workflow).
Looking through your other posts on various forums, I can see that you already have experience creating kits. Have you tried this workflow for Muse: http://museinsider.com/how-to-add-typekit-fonts-to-your-muse-site.html? If you haven't, please give it a try. If/when you have tried it, please let me know what you find most and least inconvenient about that worflow:
Creating a kit at typekit.com
Including embed code in Muse
Inability to work with the actual font during Design
Inability to see the actual font during Preview
Other (please specify)
Could you also let me know (in private, if you prefer) if you already own Prenton as a desktop/print font?
Thanks,
Abhishek

Hi, I'd like to add some typekit fonts to my Muse site but- ?

I know this website:
How to add Typekit fonts to your Muse site
from Muse Insider,
but it totally doesn't work for me, I tried a lot of times and I don't know what I'm doing wrong (I know that I have to publish the site first to see the added font but it still doesn't work ) I'm really confused, please help! (the fonts I want to add is Brandon Grotesque, Activ Grotesque).
Looking forward to hearing from you soon...
thanks,

I was pretty disappointed to find out Muse didn't support the full Typekit library when Typekit became available to Creative Cloud members. It's clearly one of the biggest drawbacks in a Muse vs. Dreamweaver comparison. There are hacks available to incorporate Typekit fonts into Muse, but the "how to" procedures are not very user friendly. Muse Themes has a Full Typekit widget, but even it's not all that easy to use. They have a nearly 9 minute long video on their website describing the procedure.
Adobe Muse Full Typekit Library Widget | MuseThemes.com
Additionally, I was pretty disappointed by the number of typefaces in Typekit that were web only (such as Brandon Grotesk) or had only one or two of several font weight available for the desktop/print version (such as Trajan Pro and Trajan Sans Pro).
As a consequence, I haven't messed with Typekit very much and honestly don't find a lot of value with it -at least not much of the access being blocked. So I'm still looking out for new fonts at bargain introductory pricing at sites like MyFonts or keeping an eye at some free sites like Font Squirrel.
Incidentally, the "Edge" fonts in Muse pale in comparison just with what's available for free at Font Squirrel. Within Muse you'll get a pretty limited number of weight/style choices with the Edge fonts. At Font Squirrel some of those same fonts have many more styles/weights available to them.
In the end, it's just a whole lot faster and easier to either buy or legally acquire web fonts either through pay sites like MyFonts or free sites like Font Squirrel and end up with the system and web fonts you can use on your computer in Muse without any crazy code hacks.

Installed typekit fonts have vanished.

The other day I took advantage of the new typekit fonts for the desktop. Was very pleasently surprised to see them magically appear in InDesign. Went ahead a used one in a project. After doing some housekeeping with Onyx, they are no longer there.
I am assuming emptying the font cache had something to do with it, but how do I get them back? CC desktop says they are synced, but this does not help.

Marcy,

How to update creative cloud without admin rights / workaround / windows 7

one of my co-workers is running creative cloud on a PC / windows 7. we're using typekit fonts in our AI files.
seems creative cloud wants to update pretty often, like every week.
THE ISSUE(S)
the user can't update it themselves without getting IT to login as admin to the PC.
we can't access the typekit fonts without the creative cloud app running.
we can't run the creative cloud app until we run the update (the updates are forced)
it's a major hold-up for us, as the team can't work on a file properly as the fonts are missing w/out CC running. and we can't update CC without IT. and we can't run CC without updating.
is there any workaround for this? can the CC updates be "turned off" or sceduled once a month or something like that?
thanks!!

This is an excellent point – all other updates in Creative Cloud are unforced and up to the customer as to when they are installed... The Creative Cloud Desktop app should be as well.
Hope Adobe can change this.
Note: Here is the update history, on average about once per month –
