Adobe To Take Restrictive Action Regarding Thier Fonts

In December 2019, Adobe plans to revamp its fonts setup in order to prevent people from reselling them. The result is that programmers will not be able to use them on sites that they build for other clients. You will only be able to use it for yourself. Clients will have to either subscribe to Adobe Creative Cloud or pay for a license for the fonts that the programmers use on their websites. Many programmers are looking for alternatives to Adobe Fonts.

Some coders state that the Adobe Font loading times are too long. They make sites too slow to load, which can affect performance on smartphones as well as on desktop and laptop computers. When sites load too slowly, people will give up and go elsewhere. A few coders said that they gave up on their Adobe Fonts subscriptions a while ago and would only go back to it if it were packaged with another Adobe service or software item.

Most programmers recommend using Google Fonts. They load quickly. Another bonus is that the Google algorithms recognize them, so there will not be any performance issues in regards to SERPs. Google Fonts play well on most platforms and operating systems. A person using data on their smartphone will not have to worry about the fonts sucking up too much of their data availability.

For programmers who code for others and get paid to do it, there are two popular options. If the client does not want to pay for an Adobe Fonts license, they will have to choose a free font such as one of the ones available through Google. The second option is for client to pay for their own license. Most programmers prefer having the client handle their own Adobe accounts because it gives the client more freedom to use the fonts in other ways. It is less popular among programmers to have them manage the Adobe Fonts licensing for their clients. This is because the programmers typically do a once and done sort of site setup and only update sites when clients want to have upgrades.
