Can't Download Proxima Nova

Hi all,

Thanks for your time and energy helping me solve this but I just found the solution!

Turns out I already had Proxima Nova installed through Adobe Fonts (fka Typekit). Those fonts don't show up in Font Book, but the system does recognize them as already being installed and therefore doesn't show them as available for download. When I deactivated the typeface through Adobe Fonts, it immediately showed up as available for download from Apple through Font Book. Hope this helps anyone with the same problem!

Hi Diala, when I try to download Proxima Nova from Finder in the steps as described in the linked support document, I don’t get Proxima Nova when searching in All Fonts in FontBook. It’s simply not there, the list is empty.

Hi Ronasara, I can see how my description is a little incomplete. The problem is that when I search for Proxima Nova, nothing comes up.

Not all fonts are already installed with the operating system, as can be read in the linked support document. Some fonts can be downloaded by the user directly from FontBook.

Whoops sorry, just woke up when I read this, should have been from Font Book of course. Anyway, I just posted the solution, thanks for your help!
