At Deer Designer, we only use "free-from-commercial-rights" fonts, such as Google Fonts. Although we work with Adobe Software, access to Adobe Fonts is bundled with an Adobe Creative Cloud subscription, and our designers are not obliged to have it.
The team will always use fonts that are acceptable for commercial use, so clients don't have to worry about licensing on their designs.
If you have a specific font in mind, we can use it too! You'll just have to provide the font file together with its license when you submit your request.
Having said that, when it comes to choosing fonts for your design projects, it's essential to consider the best options available. While Adobe Fonts may seem convenient at first glance, there are some reasons why relying solely on them might not be the best idea:
Licensing restrictions: Adobe Fonts operates under specific licensing agreements, which means the fonts available may have usage limitations. This could result in legal issues if you use the fonts outside of the agreed-upon terms, especially for commercial projects.
Dependency on Adobe: By using Adobe Fonts, you become reliant on Adobe's platform and services. If there are any disruptions or changes to their services, it could impact your ability to access and use the fonts you rely on for your designs.
Considering these factors, it's wise to explore alternative font libraries that have more flexible licensing terms and greater independence from specific platforms. By diversifying your font sources, you can enhance your design flexibility and ensure that you always have the right fonts for your projects.
