Typekit fonts in Fireworks and Photoshop

Typekit sets should be avaialble to Creative Cloud subscribers in Photoshop and Fireworks for working through design layouts in getting ready for the web. Trying to lay something out in a font you don't have is ridiculous. To tell me to buy the font is also not the answer. If your answer is for me to purchase the font then all I'm getting from Typekit is a robust and distributed font delivery system. We should be able to agree the value in Typekit is the fonts, not the delivery. If I can have them on the web, viewable by millions, I should be able to work with them in my authoring environment.

Hi Erik
Thanks for the feedback, I created an idea thread here with your suggestion:

Please and your vote, Thanks,

Typekit fonts not reloading in photoshop

Photoshop does not reload the desktop synced fonts from typekit. They are acknoledged as synced in the creative cloud main page but not visible in the project (even if I try to reload the fonts)

Hi ked71 & Trevor.Dennis,
I'm sorry that you are having some trouble with your font syncing. Do either of you happen to have Suitcase Fusion installed? The Creative Cloud team has found that the combination of Suitcase Fusion and Creative Cloud may cause the sync fonts to temporarily not show up InDesign and other applications.
At the moment, the only workaround is to turn off File and Font Sync setting in the Creative Cloud app (under the gear menu) and then turn it back on to start a new font sync. We are working with Extensis to learn more about the problem.
If that doesn't seem to be the case or toggling font sync doesn't help, please feel free to email us at [email protected] so that we can look into the problem further.

Font in Muse and Photoshop ...

Hi,
I have a font I've installed in Muse CC, called 'Lato'.
I can't find it in TypeKit and can't see how to install it into Photoshop CC.
Help?
Thx,
Gary

Web fonts added in Muse can only be used in Muse. That said, Lato is an open source font and can be separately downloaded and installed for free from http://www.latofonts.com/

I am using CS5 and when I try to upgrade the packages: Bridge, Fireworks, and Photoshop are downloaded but the upgrades always fail -- why?

I can upgrade other components of CS5 but not these three. What can I do to get these updates to be processed on my Windows 8.1 64-bit platform?

you probably moved something.
try updating directly, http://www.adobe.com/downloads/updates/

Fireworks TO Photoshop integration issues

I love designing my websites in Fireworks, however most of
the developers I work with want layered PSD documents to develop
with (don't ask me why, its a whole other discussion entirely).
Needless to say I was thrilled when rumours came about that
Fireworks CS3 offered 'full' integration with Photoshop CS3. It
will be my main reason to upgrade from studio 8.
Luckily I downloaded the trial version of both programs first
only to find the integration from fireworks TO psd file very poor.
Granted, the fact that layers are exported is a big plus but
the way texts are handled is a nightmare.
When I turn a fireworks document into a *.psd file and open
that document into Photoshop the following happens (this, ofcourse,
only happens when I update the textlayers):
> line distance in pixels is not supported by photoshop:
it turns the lading into huge distances (24px --> 450pt)
> different colors / fonts / styles are not supported: it
tuns the whole textfield in to a similar color / font / style
> All fonts dissapear and the test is set in Myriad!!
Ieven when I use Arial)
This is a major dissapointment for me, not too mention that
it creates a lot of extra work.
I hope it's something I do wrong, I find it hard to believe
that the (text) integration between fireworks and photoshop has
become worse than before.. but it does seems this way.
Tips, ideas, work arounds are -very- welcome
for your information:
I'm running a macbook pro 2.3 Ghz, 2Gb and 256Mb

First of all, good for you for testing out the trial first!
I understand there were technical issues in getting the Adobe
Font
rendering engine to work reliably in FW CS3 so unfortunately,
text
problems still exist.
In reality, the integration seems to be more of a one-way
street, from
PS to FW for this version.
Maybe it's on the PS receiving end, or maybe on the FW export
side.
Integration IS better, but it still has a ways to go. If you
read
somewhere on Adobe's site that there is FULL integration, I'd
put in a
call to customer support. That's the marketing people talking
without
thinking.
A couple suggestions that may not be feasible for your
workflow.
If the text is "locked in" in terms of it not requiring
editing in PS
you could try NOT updating the fonts
OR
In FW render the fonts as paths, export the file as a PSD,
and don't
save the converted PNG, so your text remains editable withing
FW.
These may not be practical options for you, but other than
doing all the
text in PS, it might be the only way at the moment.
That said, there are still many great features in FW CS3. If
the
integration is your only buy-in feature, though, that may not
be enough.
FW is much more akin to Illustrator than it is Phostoshop, so
it's hard
to predict when there will be FULL integration.

Cannot import FXG and Photoshop into Catalyst - error parsing fxg

Update: Fireworks and Photoshop both don't work.
I cannot import anything from a Fireworks FXG file to Catalyst. It errors every time. I even tried creating a couple of simple new files, one was just a box, and it still would not import. I originally thought my fireworks file was too complex, but it is doing the same thing regardless of simple vs. complex files. Please help. I am totally stuck. All my files are in Fireworks.
I am also having an error when I try to import PSD files. I was able to successfully import an AI file.
Error parsing FXG is the error I get from my fireworks files. The weird thing is I have some stuff that worked a couple of weeks ago, it's like it just stopped working.
Thanks in advance for any help.
I guess I should also ask, is this forum an Adobe supported forum, or just a user forum? I guess I should try to contact Adobe directly on this issue.

I am getting the exact same error using Catalyst CS5.5
No matter what file I try it gives the same error even with just a simple box on the page. I've rebooted my computer and that does not solve the problem.

Typekit fonts not available in Lightroom (and only in Lightroom)

Hi,
I have been a Creative Cloud member (full membership) for quite a while now and just this week I noticed that Typekit fonts I've synced to my computer are available on all the CC apps I use, except for Lightroom.
The fonts are evidently synced correctly (since I can, for instance, use them within Photoshop CC). However, whenever I try to create a new watermark within Lightroom, my Typekit fonts are nowhere to be found.
I'm running Windows 7 64-bit, latest Creative Cloud desktop app and all my CC software is up to date. I have searched and roamed the web for hours and have not found a single way to solve this issue.
I have already tried to sign out and back in, restart all apps, restart CC desktop, reboot windows, all while being permanently connected to the internet.
Any thoughts on what I may be missing?
Best regards
Javier

Hi Javier,
Thanks you for sending an email to Typekit Support! I have forwarded it to our lead Product Manager, and asked him to look into it the bug report with the Lightroom team. We'll update you again over email once we know more about the bug.
There isn't another workaround to use the fonts from Typekit in your watermark, unfortunately. If there are one of two fonts you really would like to use, you do have the option of purchasing the desktop license from the foundry and installing the font on your computer. Once it is installed, it will be added to all the type menus in Lightroom.
If you'd like to look into that, here are the foundry websites for the two fonts you have synced from Typekit:
Felt Tip Roman - Felt Tip Roman – Mark Simonson
FF Market - FF Market fonts from the FontFont Library
And again, we will follow up in your support email with more information as well. Best,

Is it possible to use the fonts I have in my Mac Font Book with Creative Cloud software, such as Illustrator and Photoshop?

Is it possible to use the fonts I have in my Mac Font Book with Creative Cloud software, such as Illustrator and Photoshop?

Hi Kyley,
Syncing fonts from CC is a feature of Typekit. However, fonts that you've installed manually on your system will be available in all your apps. You won't need to sync them.
I hope that helps. Let me know if you have any further questions.
Cheers,
Benjamin

Thank you so much. You are absolutely right. I will have to reduce the screen density when I work with those programs.
Thanks for your trouble and regards

Photoshop Elements 8 Mac - All fonts look jagged and pixely

HI,
I have the problem that all fonts look jagged and pixely when using Photoshop Elements 8 on Mac OS X 10.6.3. I am using the right image size 300dpi and so forth. Interestingly enough this only happens in Photoshop. If I repeat the procedure in Pixelmator everything is normal.
I would really appreciate any suggestions.

Are you simplifying the font layer and then making it larger? Can you explain exactly, step by step, what you're doing?

Can I import fonts from dafont to Photoshop Touch on my Galaxy s5? And if so, how?

I'm not sure if you need Eudora Mailbox Cleaner, but you might take a look at it.

Integrating Typekit fonts into BC Blogs and News

Hi guys,
Wondering what is the best way of integrating Typekit fonts into the BC Blog and News modules - more so on the layout/details of blogs and news.
I can easily do it on my website when I add the blog & news modules, but CSS overrides, but when you click on the blog or news link, it just stays in whatever BC web font is available.
Any tricks for this? I am using Josephin font on my clients site, and he wants this for his blog and news articles as well.
Thanks,
Aaron

Hi Aaron,
on the BC version, do you use a template? Seems like there are no styles used whatsoever.
Do you have the script file installed on the BC blog template like you have on your other website? I couldn't find it in your source code.
Picked that from your other website:
<script src="http://webfonts.creativecloud.com/fredericka-the-great:n4:all;josefin-sans:n6,n3,n7:all.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

File sync returns and Typekit font sync now available!

File sync within the Creative Cloud desktop app is back! And font sync is now available for the first time.
Looks like it is rolling out gradually. You can register at http://blogs.adobe.com/creativecloud/file-and-typekit-font-sync-rolling-out/
And here's an email I received about it:

That is correct. This functionality is being rolled out incrementally - that is, some folks will receive access to this first (in fact, some already have it now), and others will be added as soon as we can.
If you have not received an email similar to the one above, and you want to get early access to these functions, follow the link on the Creative Cloud Team Blog to sign up for the program. Details are there.

Font layers between Elements and Photoshop

We use Elements 4 and Photoshop CS2. When we open files made in the other program and try to edit text we get a dialog saying that the text has to be rasterized. Will this still happen if we upgrade to Elements 6?

you could download the Elements trial and see for yourself, not very many people who use photoshop have Elements. You might get better answers in the Elements Forum where there are people who actually use Elements.

What happens if I use a Typekit font for a site and later stop using Creative Cloud

A client has asked me if I use a Typekit font on her site, what happens if I stop using Creative Cloud. Will the fonts still work on her site?
thanks,
Gerry

Check the Typekit TOS agreement.
http://www.adobe.com/products/eulas/tou_typekit/
If you terminate your Cloud subscription, I'm pretty sure you'll need to subscribe separately to Typekit. The individual plan is free but you must join to use it.
As an alternative to TypeKit, look at Adobe's Free Edge Web Fonts.
