Type-tool issue

Hello,
I have just recently downloaded CS6 and I had some problems while working on it. Leaving aside the fact that Save for web is not working, now I have some issues with the type tool. Whenever I type something the punctuation is going in front of the text and the letters are typed from right to left. Because I don't know how to explain it so well, I tried to recorder the whole thing.

  • Photoshop CS6 type tool issue - Disappearing Type

    I recently installed CS6 and ever since then I have been having issues with type disappearing. When I choose the type tool and begin typing, everything is fine until I try to modify the type in any way, if I change point size, add a color overlay or change paragraph orientation my type disappears! If I press Command Z (undo) the type reappears minus my edits. If I try to edit type again, it's gone again. Anyone else having this issue? Any ideas how to fix it?

    i need to test and see if up and down work.
    but these folks seem to have the same issue:

  • Type tool issue: Type in saved document changes font when reopened and clicked on.

    I've recently started getting a  problem with document which I've  saved a type layer to with a particular font. Reopening the document for reuse, I find clicking on the type with the type tool changes it to a different font. I've done a check on this and it was a known issue with CS6 and there is an adobe update to install: Adobe - Photoshop : For Macintosh : Adobe Photoshop 13.0.1 update for Adobe Photoshop CS6 : Trouble is, the install doesn't take and is advising me to seek customer support. Any ideas anyone? Recreating the file and font everytime (which is a work around)  is a pain.

    I suspect a damaged install.
    Let's do an uninstall/reinstall. Be sure your account has admin privileges.
    Uninstall CS6, checkmark "Remove Preferences"
    Use the CS Cleaners to remove anything that might interfere with a reinstall
    Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6
    Use Disk Utility to repair permissions.
    Reinstall CS6 and immediately apply the update.
    If you need a fresh CS6 installer, you can get it here.

  • The type tool issue

    What can be the reason that when each time I open Photoshop Elements and click on "Type Tool" (font) then app hangs for a longer while (about 30 seconds)?
    Is this case of builing previews of fonts?
    What can I do?

    You might have added a corrupt font or one that for whatever reason Elements chokes on. I'd try removing the fonts you added (leave the ones that came with Vista or other applications alone...just take out any freeware ones you have downloaded). See if Elements acts as it should. If it starts without the delay, add a couple of fonts back then check how Elements starts. Do this until you find the font causing the issue.
    If you really are into fonts, you might consider getting a font manager. There are both free and $ ones out there.
    My personal favorite is a freeware font manager called The Font Thing...Windows only.  It doesn't list that it's Vista compatible but I have been using it on Vista without any issues.
    http://members.ozemail.com.au/~scef/tft.html
    Note: I keep my downloaded fonts in a folder on an external drive and must hit "Refresh" button in the Font thing menu bar before the navigation tree shows up in the browser window.  Like other software made for XP, the "Help" is broken with Vista.
    There a tutorial on using the Font Thing here:
    http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/university/tutorials/fontthing.shtml
    Below is the same tutorial as above but it's printable and has the screen shots.
    http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/university/printing/fontthing.htm
    Shows what I mean about the "Refresh Button" to get navigation tree...also how to get it to work with Win7 64 bit.

  • Bug Report... Catalyst crashes when using type tool

    FC is crashing nearly everytime I use the type tool or import type from AI or PS. It happens after import when I select the text to modify. I am running FC Beta 2 and am on Mac OSX 10.6.1. (the properties panel under common blanks out (doesn't show anything ie. X:, Y: W:, H:, Etc...) right before it crashes.)

    Thought i'd post back here.. I think I have fixed the type tool issue in Catalyst. Since I am a designer by trade I had about 2500 fonts enabled on my machine... I usually dont have them all enabled but I just bought my new computer and didnt even think about it... so I disabled a good chunk, at least half, and the type tool is working fine so far.... it's only been about an hour or so since ive done it so, not sure if its 100% solution, but at least it has helped...
    Might want to check the amount of fonts you have enabled when working with catalyst... keep it to a minimum.

  • When I use the type tool or the selection tools, my photos blink between the photo and a black screen.  Anyone else have this issue?

    When I use the type tool or the selection tools, my photos blink between the photo and a black screen.  Anyone else have this issue?

    Does turning off »Use Graphics Processor« in the Performance Preferences and restarting Photoshop have any bearing on the issue?

  • Type Tool/black document window issue.

    When I use the type tool in PS CC, the document goes black and becomes unuseable, what's up? (WIN 8) I found some mention of flickering problems in WIN 7 but no changes in my graphics performance software settings helped...

    I suspect a damaged install.

From there, I have to force quit the program to get out of it. I downloaded a security update for my mac yesterday, but since I haven't been using the type tool in photoshop recently, I'm not sure if that had anything to do with this issue or not. Has anyone had the same problem?
    would appreciate any help. Thank you.

    Let me clarify. I'm running Mac OS X v. 10.4.11, Photoshop CS4. The error message just says "Could not complete your request because of program error". I haven't uploaded any new fonts to my system, however, I have deleted some that were suspect of being corrupt. I cannot change fonts on the type tool because it doesn't give me a chance, the error message pops up instantly. I have reset my tools and deleted my preferences and even reinstalled Photoshop CS4 but nothing has worked.

  • CS6 Photoshop crashes when trying to use type tool or opening up .psd files. Any ideas on how to fix it???

    I have Adobe CS6 Design Standard (MAC). I have had it about a year and a half and use it a ton! Just yesterday while I was using Photoshop, I clicked to use the type tool, the "initializing type tool" box popped up then a few seconds later the whole program crashed. I tried opening it back up and every time I did it just kept crashing. I restarted and shut down my computer, but still no solution. I even uninstalled the program then reinstalled. Same thing. All of my other tools work just fine (brush tool, eraser, crop, etc.). Also, when I try to open up a .psd file the program crashes as well.
    I tried searching the internet for solutions, but couldn't find much. One suggestion was to delete the Adobe Photoshop program settings file, I did that but it still didn't work. After each crash a report would be sent to Adobe, then another window would pop up saying that Adobe has found a solution for the recent crash. There is a link that says "please CLICK HERE for further details" but the link doesn't take me anywhere. It just doesn't work!
    Has anyone had this happen to them? Any ideas on how to fix it? I really need to get this up and running again!!!

    This is a user to user forum and Adobe Staff does drop by.
    First thing to try is Reset the Type Tool by right-clicking on its' icon in the Options bar.
    If you still have problems, it could be related to fonts. Here is a step by step troubleshooting help doc for that.

  • How do I get PS CS5 to stop freezing when I select the type tool?

    Okay, I've read the other threads about photoshop cs5 freezing up for various reasons. I'm running it on os x 10.5.8 on a dual quad 2.8 processor tower. Every time I open PS and select the type tool, my entire computer slows and freezes to the point I have to do a hard restart. I've tried disabling all fonts and the same things happens (though when they're all disabled I do get a text cursor before things hang up). I'm looking for any advice--I spend the entire day today trying to fix this.

    Chris, I tried updating and it wouldn't install... Are you not allowed to install updates when you are using the "trial version"?
    I sure would like to get this resolved before investing in the actual purchase of CS5. I always get the Master Collection and it's expensive.
    So, if I can't install the update and try and find a fix to the issue, I don't think I'd be comfortable purchasing... you know?
    That's why I ALWAYS download the trial version first... to see if there are issues before buying!
    Anyway... I'll keep my eye on these posts to see if this has been cleared up... then, I'll buy.
    But, thanks very much for your help and feedback to my question and concern.
    appreciate it!

  • Adobe flash CS6 crashes when using the type tool or Editing word all the time... please help!

    Adobe flash CS6 crashes when using the type tool or Editing word all the time... please help!

    Nobody can tell you anything without proper system info or other technical details. The standard answer with all text issues simply is, that you have a "bad font" on your system and need to get rid of it.

  • PhotoShop CS4 type tool crash

    Using Windows 7 64bit. 8 GB Ram.
    Weirdest problem I have ever had with Photoshop.
    If I click the type tool, the character window or try to open any PS file with text in it PhotoShop crashes.
    I opened C:/Windows/fonts and there are only 8 fonts in there. HOWEVER if I open up Fireworks or Flash I see tons of fonts and it works.
    SIDE NOTE might be important ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
    I had Suitcase Fusion 2 (Font Manager) installed. Activated a bunch of fonts and suddenly was having clipboard copy paste issues between Illustrator and PhotoShop. I read somewhere on these forums that a corrupt font can mess up PhotoShop. After countless attempts at trying to correct the problem I uninstalled suitase fusion. That Did'nt fix the copy paste issue now I have this problem.
    If I only have 8 fonts in my Windows/Fonts folder and am not using any font management software to organize and activate my fonts (which live in a seperate folder) then where are my Adobe Products that are working (Flash, Fireworks etc)....pulling them from?
    Is there a way to reset all my fonts on my system?

    Assuming font files are under Windows protection, the Windows 7 System File Checker command SFC /SCANNOW might recover them.  Outside of that, an in-place upgrade from your original Windows disc should do it.
    You can have the System File Checker do a complete check and generate a report, but without any recovery activity, by issuing the command SFC /VERIFYONLY instead.
    Good luck.

  • Photoshop CS5.5 type tool not working after OS X 10.7.3 update

    Hi All
    Weird one ...
    The first thing I noticed was that I could not use the type tool to create 'live' text on a layer. With the type tool selected I get the following error message when clicking to begin typing:
    "Could not complete your request because of a programme error."
    I quit Photoshop then attempted to launch the application by opening the file. The application opened but the file wouldn't, giving the same error message.
    I quite Photoshop again and relaunched the application from the Dock. The applicatiuion opens fine but displays the same error message (before I have attempted to open a file).
    With a file open I checked the type palette, where the dafault typeface is shown as Myriad Pro, but the default settings are:
    Type size: 1pt
    Linefeed (leading): 1pt
    Kerning: 1
    Tracking 1
    Type height: 0%
    Type width: 0%
    Baseline shift: 0
    Colour: black
    Language: multiple
    Type quality: none
    Some odd settings there. The type tool bar (at the top of my display) has blank fields. Typing desired values into any of these fields doesn’t resolver the issue.
    I have tried restarting, creating a new file but to no avail. The type tools in Illustrator and InDesign are working as expected, so it would appear to be a Photoshop problem and I’m stumped ... any ideas?
    Thanks in advance

  • The type tool is not working

    I upgraded from PSE9 to CS5 and I can no longer view any of the fonts or use the type tool in either program.  What do I need to do to fix this issue?  Thanks for any help!  Cindy

    Hi Cindy,
    You've posted on the AIR Performance forum, and I *think* you'll want to repost in either the Photoshop CS5 or Photoshop Elements forums.  You might also try the Creative Suite forum.
    Thanks,
    Chris
