Does Photoshop CS3 Extended support Thai fonts?

I am translating some short text in Photoshop to several Asian languages. I noticed just with the Thai language, that I get a series of X's with boxes instead of Thai characters. The characters are fine in other applications, including Flash CS3. Other than taking a screenshot in another app and pasting into Photoshop, does anyone know of a workaround? Should I install a particular Thai font that is supported by Photoshop? I am running Photoshop CS3 Extended on Windows XP. Thanks for any help.

So in my search, the only thing I found was a utility downloadable at CNET http://download.cnet.com/ASK-Square-Free-Version/3000-2316_4-10855142.html
"ASK Square works efficiently with well-known graphic software such as Adobe Photoshop 7, CS, CS2, CS3 and CS4. It enables users to use of all Thai characters. Users can type all Thai characters, even troublesome characters like. This software also corrects excessively high vowels while typing or after typing just by only one click. Further more it can transform illegible font to normal font that happens when changes a texts font, to a readable normal font. If users copy texts from external application such as word processing or spreadsheet software and paste those texts into their graphic software, ASK Square software can correct the wrong-encoded texts automatically.
ASK Square is flexible. It enable user to type Thai non-unicode font on Adobe Photoshop. Version 1.5.0.10 supports Adobe Photoshop CS4."
Funny thing is you can tell their sales pitch was loosely translated. I gave it a try anyway. The instruction PDF was in Thai, their website was in Thai. But I felt brave anyway, seeing as I googled this application title and didn't see anything negative written about it. Then I go to the application icon in the system tray. As you can see from my screenshot, it ain't exactly user-friendly.
Bottom line... it didn't work. Anyone out there have a solution? I've searched everywhere... Am I the only one with this problem?

  • Bridge not functioning in PhotoShop CS3 Extended

    I deactivated Photoshop CS3 on a computer I was no longer using and installed it (CS3) another computer.  I activiated CS3 on the new computer.  However, when trying to use Bridge, I get a message that says that Adobe no longer supports Bridge Home and Bridge does not function on the new computer. Is there anything I can do to get Bridge to function as part of CS3 Extended?

    Thanks, that worked.

  • Error "Licensing for this product has stopped working" when starting Adobe Photoshop CS3 Extended- XP Pro AMD; 2GB RAM

    I have exhausted all known options thus far.
    I started the Flexnet Licensing Service and restarted the system but the message continues to come up when lanching PS CS3 extended
    After restarting computer the Flexnet  Licensing Service stops again and goes into Manual mode. This also happens after a few minutes without restarting.
    I also downloaded the Flexnet Licensing Recovery Kit from Adobe Support but the file stops after saying  "please wait for a few moments.. ?"
    I changed the setting as discribed for the Flexnt folder but the message continues to come up when PS Extended CS3 is launced.

    What else is there to do. Please help me as what I can do so I can continue to use Photoshop CS3 Extended.
    Thank you

    I downloaded the clean Script file and followed the instructions from what the Clean Script read Me file described.  The first step said to deactivate. Although I was not able to deactivate because of my original message, I followed the remaining steps.
    After using the Clean Script and uninstalling Photoshop CS3 Extended and re-installing it I re-booted my computer. I also deleted the CS3 Application data files.
    When I installed PS CS3 Extended the installer does not ask for the serial number on all attemps. I bought a registered copy of PS CS3 Extended. Is there another way to approch this licensing error.

  • Adobe Photoshop CS3 Extended on Windows XP Professional

    Topic: Selecting
    I have been using Photoshop Elements 4 until I just purchased Photoshop CS3 Extended. In Photoshop Elements 4 there is a selection brush, enabling you to make pixel by pixel selection (if desired). There seems to be NO counterpart in CS3 - - which seems impossible for so powerful a program. In that most of my work involves selecting very precise points of 1 or 2 pixels, how can this be done?
    Please help.
    Thank you

    Dave Milbut:
    Thanks so much for responding . . but, unfortunately does NOT work again! I did exactly as you suggested in that I made a selection fir so that I could get a quick mask. When I double-clicked on quick mask in the tools pallet, NO options appear that say "Paint on selections" nor "paint on mask". The options is get are "Color indicates Mask Area or Selected area" and you have to chose one. The only thing you are actually choosing is whether you want the color to appear on the mask you chose or inversely to appear on the remainder of the object. The "black" brush remains the same and does not change.
    If I do not learn how to make minute selections (so that I will be able to act on only tiny tiny areas) I will not be able to use this program after spending a million dollars for it. It looks like Adobe could make something so fundamental (available in Elements) available here.
    Could you help me further . . . PLEASE !
    Thank you.

  • Adobe Photoshop CS3 Extended Trial

    Hi guys, I've recently downloaded Adobe Photoshop CS3 Extended. When I select the trial period for 30 days instead of buying the product, it says that Adobe cannot continue and it's having trouble loading the trial. I reinstalled it and restarted my computer, like it said, and nothing worked. Please help, I cannot afford Adobe Photoshop CS3 Extended right now, and I do not support piracy at all.

    I've tried to install the program from a different directory, I think my windows installer is crashing every time i try to install it, maybe I find a working hotfix for it.

    Hi all, hoping someone can help me.
    I have a legitimate hard copy of Adobe Photoshop CS3 Extended which was only recently taken out of its sealed package.

  • Adobe Photoshop CS3 Extended freezes on startup under Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit - No splash screen

    I installed my licensed copy of Adobe Photoshop CS3 Extended today as part of my install a bunch of software after a reinstall of Windows (due to viruses).  I did a completely fresh install of Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit.  I've used Photoshop CS3 Extended for quite a while now so I know what to expect on startup but it was previously installed under Windows XP Professional (32-bit). Figured I would give Windows 7 a chance this time around.
    Google searches aren't turning up anything.  When I attempt to start the application, I get a window with the title "Adobe Photoshop CS3" (no "Extended" - I seem to recall the title changes later) and the toolbar appears.  However, no splash screen appears and no Product Activation wizard appears - the application simply freezes on an empty frame and a toolbar.  I've tried running Photoshop as Administrator (right-click, "Run As Administrator"), but nothing changed there.  I tried uninstalling and reinstalling.  I tried upgrading to CS3 10.0.1.  Nothing works.  The application simply freezes before it gets anywhere.
    I tried calling Adobe Support since this technically falls under installation issues but their phone support systems are down today.  Go figure.
    Edit:  I hooked into Photoshop with the Visual Studio debugger and every single thread is executing some variation of WaitForSingleObject() or WaitForMultipleObjects().  The main thread is "executing" somewhere in AdobeLM_libFNP.dll (at address 09619d81 - if I had debugging symbols for CS3, I could provide a function).  There are nine threads "running" at the point the freeze occurs - but all of them are technically suspended due to the functions they are executing - and one thread is in a suspended state.

    And, according to the Event Viewer, the "Binary" data translates to a zero-terminated Unicode string of "Cross-thread".
    My Visual Studio analysis was far more informative.  All threads are hung inside of WaitForSingleObject() and WaitForMultipleObjects() calls and the DLL in question appears to be FlexNet-related.  I did forget to mention that I also even manually started the FlexNet service in case, for some strange reason, Photoshop was waiting for it to start.  That also did not work.
    (And there is nothing in the Action Center control panel either despite the message saying there might be more information there.)
    Edit:  The timestamp above might be a little odd-looking.  I didn't originally see anything in Event Viewer until I clicked the first button to send an Error Report.  Mostly I just skipped that part of killing a process.

I am not sure I really got screwed or things just work differently. The computer is a little strange... (I can write in Thai สกร่ฟส กส่ฟกส า่ฟส ่ if I would like to) but so far it's ben okay.

  • Photoshop CS3 Extended freezes on startup - Windows 7

    Hello,
    Recently Photoshop CS3 Extended freezes when I launch it on my Windows 7 (64 bit) computer. The splash screen appears but then it just stops working (usually on initializing Tools). It then asks to exit or search for help.
    I have read several things so far. To fix it I tried:
    - disabling the TWAIN plugin
    - resetting all tools
    - deleting the Photoshop preferences file.
    - deleting my printer from the control panel (some others said printer drivers could cause it)
    But all of these did not help. Please let me know how I could fix this. It is not nice having a deadline and not being able to guarantee Photoshop will work.

    Thank you for your replys!
    @Mylenium: I have not recently changed the graphics driver, anyway, this post will contain some more detailed information.
    Since the system does not hang (it is only PS) I could take a screenshot of it:
    And yeah, the message from the event log was very helpful indeed, I should have looked it up earlier ^^;

  • Photoshop CS3 Extended won't recognize QuickTime installation

    Hi,
    using Photoshop CS3 Extended, I tried opening an animated GIF today without success. After some forum searching I found I had to import it as video into layers.
    When I tried that I got this message:
    "Could not complete the video frames to layers command because QuickTime version 7.1 or later is required."
    I have QuickTime installed, the newest version (checked for updates and found none), and it works normally. This computer is just about 2 months old, so it's not an out-of-date installation of QuickTime, either.
    I am running Windows XP Pro.
    How does Photoshop determine whether QuickTime is installed or not?
    Any other ideas?
    I'd rather avoid re-installing programs (especially QuickTime) if there's an easier fix for this.
    Thanks!

    Richard.
    There was a problem with QT 7.4 and the Digital rights Management segment that conflicted with After Effects and Premier. There was an almost immediate update from Apple to 7.4.1 (6?) which fixed this problem, there may infact have been another update since then although from memory this was just an itunes update.
    I'd update to the latest version which will more than likely fix the problems. If as you said you have the latest version then try uninstalling Quicktime and reinstalling it rather than using the apple updater.

  • Photoshop CS3 Extended Keyboard Shortcut Not Working

    I installed the CS3 Master Collection that included Photoshop CS3 Extended. I've used Photoshop for going on a decade and I find the CTRL+ALT+I keyboard shortcut really handly to pop open the Image Size window.
    Now, in this new version (don't after a clean format, reinstall of my XP OS) the shortcut no longer works. I check and it still has CTRL+ALT+I listed next to Image Size in the drop down menu as the proper keys, but it does not work.
    Anyone having this issue?

    I tried resetting the preferences but to no avail.
    I'm avoiding having to do an uninstall/reinstall like the plague so If I can find what's causing it and fix it manually that would be preferred.
    I have thought about running the Adobe updater but I'm concerned that it may cause more problems that it would fix (as this has happed to me before with other apps). Everything else works great and this is the only issue I've noticed.
    Does anyone know if the update for Photoshop CS3 Extended addressed his issue (or knows of another cause that might be behind it)?

  • About Using Magnetic Lasso Tool In Photoshop CS3 Extended

    Hi All
    I seem to be having a problem using the Magnetic Lasso Tool In Photoshop CS3 Extended as when I get half way around an egales beak zoomed in at 66.67% and start to single click around the tight corners the photo is covered over with a white background and the palettes to the right of the Photo e.g. layers, channels, paths becomes white to and all you can see is the paths that the Magnetic Lasso Tool has made around the beak until you click any key on the keyboard but the annoying thing about doing that is that the path automatically becomes selected there for I am unable to draw the paths around the rest of the beak does anyone know of a patch of some kind that will correct this error?
    Many Thanks For Reading This And May Be Replying To it.
    All The Best. Regards,
    Oliver
    P.S I have downloaded and installed all of the updates for all Adobe and Adobe CS3 Software.

    Oliver,
    We have the same exact issue here with the Polygonal Lasso tool. Get anywhere from 20-80% around an object and it hiccups once and then locks up for a moment causing you to loose whatever you've been selecting.
    Symptoms include toolbars and palettes turning white and screen freezing for a moment.
    Is there an official word on this from Adobe? Or better yet, a solution?
    Thanks,
    George
