Why does my text on Photoshop keep getting stretched?

It happens on both of my computers, with different licenses and CS versions (5.5 and 6). Thanks for the help!

Does your Character panel say something other than 100% as in the image below?

  • Why does Large text in a Form get cut off at the top when I save it as a PDF

    Hi. I've created a form in Acrobat with 2 text fields. I set the size to 40pt and 30pts using Helvetica. When I fill out the form and save-as a PDF the text displays as cut off at the top.
    Here's what I've tried so far:
    Making the text fields MUCH larger than the font.
    Changing fonts. I've tried Helvetica, Verdana, Arial
    Selecting Multi-line
    Does anyone know how I can keep it from cutting off? The only solution I've been able to find thus far is reducing the font size significantly, which is not an option.
    THANKS!

    I'm using Acrbat Pro version 10.1.4
    The text looks perfect in Acrobat. I'm choosing File > Save As from Acrobat and then when I open it with Preview or Reader it cut's off the text.
    Thanks for your help.

  • Why does my download of iTunes keep getting 'interrupted'?

    When downloading, did you login to the Exchange?
    Did you add it to My Widgets in the Widget Browser with the button in the bottom right hand corner of the widget browser?

  • Why does my 2009 27" imac keep shutting down?

    why does my 2009 27" imac keep shutting down?

    Could, also, be failing hard drive , power supply or logic board.
    You may have to make an appointment and take your iMac in to Apple or Apple authorized repair center for diagnostics and a repair estimate.
    If your iMac has a 1 TB internal hard drive, it maybe a Seagate drive and maybe eligible for free replacement under the Apple Seagate 1 TB internal hard drive replacement program.
    If you can get your iMac running, you need to backup all of your data ASAP!. Either backup to optical disc, flash drive/s or purchase an external hard drive for backup. You can use a data cloning program such as CarbonCopyCloner or SuperDuper to make an exact copy of your iMac's internal hard drive.
    You can check for eligibility for free hard drive replacement by inputting your iMac's serial number here.

  • Why icons  and text on photoshop are very small, (i checked edit preferences interface)

    why icons  and text on photoshop are very small, (i checked edit>preferences>interface)

    In summary:
    1.  You have a "high dpi" screen.  The advantages to this are that things that are painted on the screen in a reasonable size will be made up of a lot of pixels, and will be very crisp and clean looking.
    2.  Photoshop has not yet embraced "high dpi" operation.  It's complex to do so, in that Adobe has to rewrite the software for all the controls on the screen to be able to use more pixels.  That's not to say it's impossible, it's actually fairly straightforward for a given control - but there are a HUGE number of controls in many, many different places in the application.
    Adobe has said they're working on it, and have made some noise about Microsoft not having supplied everything they need to succeed at the full reimplementation.  But the current version does not have the ability to size itself up to be a reasonable size on your "high dpi" display.
    That said, if you really, really want Photoshop to be "magnified up" to where all the controls (AND the pixels in the image you're editing) are much larger on your display, there is a workaround/hack...  It's a bit geeky and requires registry editing, and one day when Photoshop really does gain "high dpi" support you'll need to remove the hack, but here it is:

    I can't vouch for its performance, but it might make it usable for you in the interim.

  • Why does my text look jagged in Fireworks CS4?

    I have had it up to here with fireworks CS4. I can't figure out why my text looks like my dog chewed on it. If Fireworks CS4 has the same text engine as Illustrator than why does my Text in Illustrator look crisp but my text in fireworks looks jagged. I tried using anti-lising but that didn't help. I know there's been a lot of text issues with Fireworks CS4 but I thought the bugs were all fixed by now. Check out the attatchments to see what I'm talking about.

    I posted a similar discussion a few months ago and while many were very helpful with their suggestions I have all but given up with using text in Fireworks.
    It just isn't worth the bother when other applications can do text with no fuss and no messing with sizes and resolutions. I tend to use illustrator or dare I say it, Paintshop Pro which produces text easily and clearly within a text box or over an image
    I'm keeping an eye on your discussion to see if there are any new words of wisdom. Here's hoping.
    Sorry I can't offer any advice

  • Why does my text DARKEN after I RASTERIZE it?

    If anybody could answer this question for me, that would
    be awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    Why does my text darken after I click outside the text marching-ants box?  And then why does it get even darker once I rasterize the text layer?
    this is puzzling me and I'm sure the answer is obvious..
    I've ATTACHED a picture of my issue..
    THANKS for any help!
    Dan

    Ah, ok that makes sense! 
    Thanks for the quick response!
    I've noticed if I export it as a JPEG and then minimize the JPEG, it darkens as well.. 
    Ok, one more quick question if you don't mind..
    How come even though I set my canvas size at 15" x 13"... 
    when I zoom to 100% it's waaay too big to even fit on my screen,
    appearing maybe 3' x  4' ...?
    I'm confused about what canvas sizes I should be using
    in designing a standard webpage background or an image for a Youtube video..
    ...and on that note, is there a way to shrink the canvas while having all your layers
    proportionately adjust their contents to the new canvas size?
    Thanks for any info!

  • Why does my Mac Book pro keep restarting

    why does my Mac Book pro keep restarting and how can it be fixed

    It would be nice if you could include a kernel panic log to verify that your problem is...
    Mid-2010 15" MacBook Pros - the bad NVIDIA GPU
    If you're having frequent kernel panics with your 15" mid-2010, or intermittent screen problems, the problem is, more than likely, the faulty NVIDIA GPU found in a number of those machines.
    Here's just a sample of a kernel panic log that points to the faulty NVIDIA card:
    Kernel Extensions in backtrace (with dependencies):
             com.apple.GeForce(6.4.0)@0x82ac4000->0x82b7afff
                dependency: com.apple.NVDAResman(6.4.0)@0x834a0000
                dependency: com.apple.iokit.IONDRVSupport(2.2.1)@0x82fd3000
                dependency: com.apple.iokit.IOPCIFamily(2.6.5)@0x7a802000
                dependency: com.apple.iokit.IOGraphicsFamily(2.2.1)@0x8301b000
             com.apple.nvidia.nv50hal(6.4.0)@0x83c05000->0x84019fff
                dependency: com.apple.NVDAResman(6.4.0)@0x834a0000
             com.apple.NVDAResman(6.4.0)@0x834a0000->0x8378dfff
                dependency: com.apple.iokit.IOPCIFamily(2.6.5)@0x7a802000
                dependency: com.apple.iokit.IONDRVSupport(2.2.1)@0x82fd3000
                dependency: com.apple.iokit.IOGraphicsFamily(2.2.1)@0x8301b000
    Here's the "official" Apple take on the issue - but the very real kernel panics need not be preceded by 'Intermittent black screen or loss of video'... in fact, you might not experience any video problems at all. Although video problems can certainly be a portent of things to come…
    So what can you do? Print out a copy of your kernel panic and a copy of the Knowledge Base article and take them, along with your machine, to your local Apple Store or an Apple Authorized Service Provider. The unfortunate thing is that many people have passed the “three years from date of purchase” now and Apple is not honoring the free logic board replacement for many users. Some dealers seem to be making some exceptions for those past the three year mark, but don’t count on it…
    Good luck,

  • Why does my Power MAC G4 keep restarting itself after I shut it down?

    Hi,
    Thanks for reading this.
    Why does my Power MAC G4 keep restarting itself after I shut it down?
    This JUST started happening only 4 days ago.
    Most recent installation was Limewire, but I removed it to see if this problem would go away.
    I have 3 internal drives (See drive types below) that all have OS 10 on them in order to be able to boot up from either drive in the event of trouble.
    However...
    No matter WHICH drive I use as the start up drive... the computer STILL restarts itself after it is properly commanded to shut down.
    Prior to the Limewire install... the ADOBE creative suite was installed.
    There is a Lexmark X83 printer hooked to the computer, which, it seems doesn't matter if it is left on or off... the computer still restarts itself.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks!

    Hi, Tommy!
    If you still have problems, trash the following three preference files, then shut down and do a PMU reset. (PMU reset procedure for the QS is the same as is shown at the link for the Gigabit Ethernet.)

    why does a text banner pop up while in a text converstaion? only the sound alerted before iOS 6.

    but that only started with iOS 6. prior, the text tone would sound when you were in a different conversation. I like the banner but it's annoying when I'm already in the text screen.... understand the question?

    Open Activity Monitor in the Utilities folder.  Select All Processes from the Processes dropdown menu.  Click twice on the CPU% column header to display in descending order.  If you find a process using a large amount of CPU time (>=70,) then select the process and click on the Quit icon in the toolbar.  Click on the Force Quit button to kill the process.  See if that helps.  Be sure to note the name of the runaway process so you can track down the cause of the problem.
