[–] cbsks 5y ago ↗ …do they show the fonts anywhere? Is it just the images with a few random letters scattered about?
[–] haik90 5y ago ↗ why they dont provide the sample how the fonts looks?Even every link on page didn't have preview of fonts.
[–] MR4D 5y ago ↗ The fonts can be found here (link near the end of page): http://aka.ms/officefontsCaveat (from the page):"Cloud fonts are only available to Microsoft 365 subscribers. Documents that have cloud fonts will render correctly in Office 2019."
[–] reeestandard 5y ago ↗ Examples of the fonts here:https://www.theverge.com/2021/4/28/22407297/microsoft-office...
