Adobe adds over 750 popular fonts including Helvetica and DIN

Adobe and Monotype, the global font company, have expanded their strategic collaboration to integrate hundreds of the world’s most widely used fonts into Adobe Creative Cloud. This update adds more than 750 new fonts and automatically provides Adobe users with access to over 2,800 high-quality fonts from the entire Monotype font library.

The newly added representative fonts include Helvetica, Avenir, Gotham, Benton Modern, and FF DIN, and global fonts that support various languages such as Arabic, Hindi, and Japanese are also included. You can use these fonts immediately in major apps such as Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, and Express without separate installation.

This expanded collaboration is expected to significantly reduce “font not found” errors during design work, as some popular fonts have disappeared from libraries since Adobe stopped supporting PostScript-based Type 1 fonts in early 2023.

“Thousands of Monotype typefaces are now at the heart of Creative Cloud workflows,” said Dan Rhatigan, Monotype’s Director of Curation. “Our goal is to work with global foundries to get typefaces directly into the hands of designers around the world.”

This font expansion is also significant in terms of maintaining brand consistency. With the company’s core fonts included by default in Creative Cloud, creative teams can work more efficiently without delays or additional costs due to font issues.
