Fonts in epub question

SueCampbell54 Sep 4, 2014 9:13 AM

Is there a list somewhere of the Adobe fonts that are included in the InDesign CC (or earlier) releases? NOT the Typekit fonts but the ones that have traditionally been bundled with the app.

Also, I am hearing that these Adobe fonts are legal to include in an epub. Embedded and obfuscated. (I've heard this from Blatner and Concepcion on InDesign Secrets) Is this true? I would like to include two fonts Palatino and Helvetica in a project. But I can't figure out which versions were the ones included in the application.

Adobe used to put the fonts in a folder in the applications folder, but they've been moved ...

Thanks!!

I found a complete fonts list Here: Fonts Installed by Adobe’s Creative Suite « Typblography
However I'm still seeking the answer to legality of including these Adobe fonts in an epub for a client publisher.

Hello Sue,
I fairly certain you can per several places where it states you are able to use any fonts distributed by Adobe.
Here is one...
Adobe - Fonts : Font Embedding Notification

Let me know if you find out anything different

Yes, all Adobe fonts that you've purchased are licensed for embedding in epubs too.

See Caleb Belohlavek (Principal Product Manager, Adobe Type) reply in this thread last year:
Embedding Fonts in an ePUB
