Hi,

We are designing a Chinese restaurant. The client wants to use the typeface Adobe Song for some Chinese characters in the signage we have made using model text.

I downloaded Adobe Song using Adobe Typekit. The font works fine in Adobe applications like Photoshop.

Even after I restarted my computer, I cannot find Adobe Song in my list of fonts in Revit.

Why not?

Thanks,
Derek

Depending on the type of Font you might not be able to use it.

I would recommend sticking with TrueType fonts, preferably SimSun or Arial Unicode MS. They are not fancy fonts, but are reliable for DWG printing/exports.
