adobe cloud fonts and maintype, bug?
Posted: Tue Aug 29, 2023 4:24 am
I've just installed a few fonts via the Adobe Cloud app. I was wondering if maintype will let me view them and it does - but not well. I realise some of this might be beyond the developer's means to address...
1. I can view the fonts in the active fonts view, but they do not appear in a search. Is this by design?
2. Previews in the preview pane are very slow to render - almost as if they are downloading (not stored locally?). The sample text updates immediately.
I'm pretty sure #2 is a bug, because the preview pane shows the wrong font in the preview and keeps jumping around.
Here's a video of the issue
(i went to the trouble of uploading it, but this BB spat the dummy)
I'm on 9.0.0.1207
