I go to the menu Illustrator>Type>Suitcase Fusion>Check Document Fonts. This strongly suggests that Adobe prevented that activation and wants us instead to activate their version in Typekit. MyriadPro-Cond: Suitcase has not activated the font.
Myriad-Roman has a blue diamond, indicating Suitcase Fusion automatically and correctly activated the font. Myriad-Bold has a blue diamond, indicating Suitcase Fusion automatically and correctly activated the font. MyriadPro-Semibold: Available to sync from Typekit with a checkbox in the Sync column.ī4. MyriadPro-Cond: Available to sync from Typekit, with a checkbox in the Sync column. Myriad-Roman: Default font substituted for missing font. Myriad-Bold: Default font substituted for missing font. Like Example A, after a few seconds, the CC dialog indicates it synced some of the fonts, which disappear from the list. Like Example A, the CC dialog indicates missing fonts, all of which we actually have.ī3. (Two, because we also have a Postscript version.) We have control of this part of the situation.ī2. Not a problem, as Suitcase Fusion shows us the two we can choose from. This is expected, since the TrueType/Apple Computer version of Helvetica is a newer version in El Capitan. A Suitcase Fusion dialog pops up showing that the Helvetica used in the art is different than those available. Note: In Illustrator, under Type>Suitcase Fusion, "All Libraries" is selected and "Enable Font Sense" is activated.ī1. Note: No non-system fonts are activated in Suitcase fusion before starting. I opened another Illustrator artwork document. We rely on Suitcase Fusion's FontSense technology to auto-activate the correct fonts from OUR library. After 5-10 seconds, the CC dialog says: "Successfully synced fonts from Typekit." A Creative Cloud dialog pops up indicating missing fonts, all of which we actually have.Ī3. As others have noted, this doesn't seem to do much.Ī2. In the CC App, I have Typekit turned OFF. This is what happens to the same art on the upgraded iMac:Ī1. We have our own font library loaded into Suitcase Vault, just like on the iMacs not yet upgraded.Īrtwork opens fine on the iMacs still running Adobe CS6 and Suitcase Fusion 6. In my case I'm most likely going to have to do the design in another program/import in, which I have no problems with but I can see that being a challenge for friends and family members who are now wanting to use custom fonts with their new Cricut machines.- We have an Imac we have upgraded to El Capitan 10.11.6, the latest Adobe CC (2017, 21.0.0 just downloaded), and the latest Suitcase Fusion (18.2.0 just downloaded). Or are they instead doing their designs in programs like Adobe Photoshop/Illustrator or Affinity Photo/Designer, where they can properly use their fonts and importing them in?
It works beautifully for EVERY program except Design Space.Īre people just saying to heck with it and loading their fonts directly into their OS? This means my font library is always in the Cloud and then I load them via Suitcase Fusion. In my case, I keep my fonts stored on a Google Shared Drive that is loaded onto my machine via Google Drive for Desktop. It's a bad idea as not only can it slow down your machine in general, it will slow down things like the OS startup process as those fonts are loaded into Memory, as well as the startup process for other applications.Īllow you to keep your fonts saved on alternative drives, and in some cases Cloud Drives, which can be important if your primary OS drive (i.e C: drive) is not very large. Not bog down your machine by loading hundreds or thousands of fonts directly into your OS. The purpose of using a Font Manager, in addition to organization, is to:

Yet I have no issues with any other of my Adobe/Affinity programs that I use daily.Īfter talking about it with support from Suitcase Fusion, it appears that Design Space is only looking for fonts that are in the Windows OS registry. I use either Suitcase Fusion or Fontbase for font management on my machines and when I activate a font via either of these programs they are not recognized by Design Space. I'm curious how everyone is handling Font Management for Cricut Design Space? 🤔
