Working with web fonts from Adobe Fonts
Web fonts from Adobe Fonts are now available for HTML5 Canvas documents in Adobe Animate.
With the integration of Adobe Fonts with Animate, thousands of premium web fonts from quality foundries are instantly available to you in your HTML5 Canvas documents.
You can try a limited selection of fonts from the Adobe Fonts library with any level of Creative Cloud plan, and if you have subscribed to a paid plan, you will have access to the full library with thousands of fonts.
For more information on subscription plans for Adobe Fonts, see Web Font hosting with Adobe Fonts.
Unlike self-hosted web fonts, Adobe Fonts hosts the fonts that you decide to use in your hosted content. If you select fonts from the Adobe Fonts library and then publish your document on the web, Adobe Fonts automatically hosts those fonts and connects your Adobe Fonts account to your content on the web.
The Adobe Fonts library is available to you with your Creative Cloud subscription. For more information, see https://fonts.adobe.com. You can also buy new Adobe Fonts. Re-launch Animate to view the purchased fonts in the All Fonts tab of the Adobe Fonts screen.
