You can add both Adobe Edge and Web fonts to the Font list in Dreamweaver. In the Font list, Dreamweaver supported font stacks are listed first
ahead of Web fonts and Edge fonts.

Add Adobe Edge fonts to the font list

You can now use Adobe Edge fonts in your web pages. When an Edge font is used in a page, an additional script tag is added to reference a
JavaScript file. This file downloads the font from the Creative Cloud server directly to the browser’s cache.

When displaying the page, fonts are downloaded from the Creative Cloud server even if the font is available on the user's computer.

For example, (in 12.2) a Script tag that uses only the font "Abel" has the format:

"abel" is the internal name that the server uses to identify the font. n4 indicates that the variant of the font being downloaded is of "normal" style
and of weight "400".

In Dreamweaver CC, the script that is added is as follows:

1. Select Modify > Manage Fonts.

2. The Adobe Edge Fonts tab displays all the Adobe Edge fonts that you can add to the Font list.

3. To find and add fonts from this list to the Font list, do the following:
