Figma Fonts Not Available: A Step-by-Step Guide

Are you tired of dealing with unavailable fonts in Figma? Look no further! This article will walk you through the process of activating missing fonts in Figma using RightFont's Chrome extension.

First, make sure you have installed Adobe Fonts Desktop App on your computer. If not, download it from the Adobe website and follow the installation instructions. Once installed, sign in to your Adobe ID account on the app.

Next, open a Figma file that contains text layers with missing fonts. Click on the 'Activate fonts' button in the upper right corner of the page. This will prompt you to install RightFont's Chrome extension from the Chrome Web Store.

Once installed, open a new tab and navigate to the Adobe Fonts website. Sign in with your Adobe ID credentials and ensure that all the apps under RightFont are checked. If prompted, allow RightFont to control apps like Photoshop, Illustrator, QuarkXPress, and others due to automation control restrictions introduced in macOS Mojave and later versions.

Now, follow these steps:

1. Open System Settings on your Mac, navigate to Privacy & Security, then select the Automation tab.

2. Ensure that Don't Allow is not selected; if it is, simply click OK to proceed.

3. In RightFont's Chrome extension, you will see a Missing Fonts dialog. Click 'Activate All' to activate the listed fonts.

Alternatively, when you encounter a missing font dialog in Figma, you'll see a new button called 'Activate in RightFont' at the bottom left of the dialog. Click this button and follow the prompts to install the missing fonts.

If the activated fonts don't load properly in your Figma file, try reloading the Figma browser tab. This should resolve any issues.

By following these simple steps, you'll be able to activate missing fonts in Figma using RightFont's Chrome extension. With this integration, you can ensure consistent font usage within your Figma designs and expand your font library without having to install fonts on your computer.
