Adobe - Missing Fonts

Problem

There are fonts missing in Adobe.

Solution

  1. Update or repair Acrobat first

  2. If Acrobat prompts for a Font Pack, or the PDF uses other languages

    1. Install the official Adobe Font and Spelling Pack. Select the latest Acrobat Reader 64-bit on Windows version.

    2. Close Acrobat or Reader, install the pack, then reopen the PDF.

  3. Identify the missing font

    1. Use the font name shown in the warning to identify the required font family and style.

    2. If the PDF uses a font that is not embedded, Acrobat may substitute another font, which can change how the document displays or prints.

Acrobat may show an internal font name, such as ArialMT, rather than the everyday retail or menu name of the font.

  1. If the font is still missing or the text still looks wrong

    1. The PDF may have been created without embedding fonts correctly.

    2. Ask the document owner to recreate or export the PDF with fonts embedded, or provide a corrected PDF.
