RE: Skyfonts

Just found out this is not exactly true. Fonts I have purchased are there. 
Subscription fonts are not.

I found where they are, and they are hidden, and obfuscated and in folders you 
cannot read, such as:

C:\Users\andre\AppData\Local\Temp\31155DEE-0D38-4494-BCE0-7B26519CED36\1AAB7142-B75D-4F69-A6D5-6D78CAA71B49\527465

which varies on reboot. Heavily DRM'd.

Hi Alexander,

The Skyfonts plot clarifies. Indeed, thanks to you I have been able to discover 
that the Skyfonts downloads are located here in Windows 10:

C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Roaming\Monotype\skyfonts-myfonts

and

C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Roaming\Monotype\skyfonts-google

and so on - you can subscribe to multiple services.

Since I have a Monotype subscription the name is in the path, but I think you 
can have SkyFonts from elsewhere, for Google fonts for example.

Furthermore the folder holds a normal OpenType font file, not encrypted, no 
name mangling, perfectly able to be copied. I suppose one can say they are 
'slightly hidden'.
