To add Adobe fonts to Figma, you need to install the Figma font installer to activate your Adobe Fonts subscription within Figma.
Here's a breakdown of how to do it:
-
Install the Figma Font Installer: This application bridges the gap between your locally installed fonts (including Adobe Fonts) and Figma.
-
If using the Figma browser app: You'll need to download and install the Figma Font Installer. You can find the installer on Figma's downloads page or within the Figma application settings.
-
If using the Figma desktop app: The font installer is already included with the app and should be running in the background.
-
-
Activate Adobe Fonts: Ensure you are logged into your Adobe Creative Cloud account and that your Adobe Fonts are activated. You can activate fonts through the Adobe Creative Cloud desktop application or the Adobe Fonts website.
-
Use the Fonts in Figma: Once the font installer is running and your Adobe Fonts are activated, they should automatically appear in Figma's font selection menu. If they don't appear immediately, try restarting Figma.
Troubleshooting:
-
Font Installer Not Running: Make sure the Figma Font Installer is running in your system tray (Windows) or menu bar (macOS). If it's not, manually launch it.
-
Adobe Fonts Not Activated: Double-check that the fonts you want to use are activated in your Adobe Creative Cloud account.
-
Figma Restart Required: Sometimes, Figma needs to be restarted to recognize newly installed or activated fonts.
By following these steps, you can easily integrate your Adobe Fonts into your Figma projects, ensuring a consistent and professional design workflow.
