Working with Typekit fonts

For a little while now, as a Creative Cloud subscriber, you’ve been able to sync Typekit fonts to your desktop through the Creative Cloud desktop application and use those fonts in any application, including Illustrator. In this release of Illustrator CC, you can now also filter the Typekit fonts, and see which fonts are indeed Typekit fonts, within the font menu in Illustrator. There is also a way to access the Typekit website in a browser by clicking a button in the font menu in Illustrator.

In this section, you will filter the font list and go to the Typekit website to find a font and apply it in Illustrator.

Note

In order to follow along, you will need Internet access to open the Typekit website.
