Why is Photoshop CC 2014 condensing my fonts?

Hi All,
I have tested this with various fonts and they all appear to be condensed even though the horizontal and vertical scales are set at 100%. At a guess I would say they are about 80% condensed. If I type directly into photoshop and copy it into illustrator it keeps the condensed visual attributes even though the panel in illustrator says 100% on both horizontal and vertical scales. If I then type out the same text directly in illustrator it is fine and how it should be. Has anyone else had this problem and more to the point has anyone managed to come up with the solution which isn't a work around, surely this should be working as it wouldn't be good if jobs were going off to print without people noticing it?
PS I am running a Mac Pro (Early 2009) with OS X Yosemite and Adobe Photoshop CC 2014.2.1
Thanks in advance
Darren

Hi c.pfaffenbichler, thank you for your response but unfortunately this happens no matter what PAR I use, please see below screenshot that shows e.g. of this: The text at the top is set in photoshop and the text at the bottom is the exact same font (arial regular) at the exact same size only imported from illustrator. It seems to be a definite glitch within Photosop to me as this doesn't happen in any other programs.
TIA Darren

    Technical specialists HEY! I address to you, explain to me why Adobe Photoshop CC 2014 15.2.2 anything doesn't understand the png format?????

    Hi Jack,
    Is it happening with a specific png file or with all the png files.
    Can you try to download a sample png file and then try to open it up in Photoshop.
    Where are these files located on an internal drive or external drive?
    Thank you for posting on Adobe Forums.

  • Why does Photoshop CC 2014 install as a trial, instead of actually working?

    Why does trying to update Photoshop CC result in Photoshop CC 2014 being installed as a trial (instead of actually working)?
    Does anybody know?
    And why can't I get ACR 8.5 for either CC or CS6?

  • Why is Photoshop CC 2014 nearly crash with Wacom and fix itself when I move my regular mouse?

    I have Photoshop CC 2014 (completely updated through Creative Cloud). I am currently using a Wacom Intuos 3 9"X12" with the Intuos drivers all updated. Everything is updated. I am working on Windows 8, on a computer with 8 GB's of RAM. I have never had this problem before using Photoshop until just recently. Before I updated Photoshop CC 2014, I was having trouble putting in text into my files. I would go to edit or add text, and it would say that the text function was unavailable. I was pretty ticked, since I'm in school full time for animation and NEED Photoshop to work as fast as possible and this was making things harder. So, I updated. The text thing got fixed, but for some reason, whenever I use my wacom tablet to draw, it will work for a little bit (like two minutes) before it pretty much freezes my computer. It gets laggy and doesn't show anything on screen. I have waited almost two minutes before. But, whenever I move my REGULAR mouse (trackpad or USB mouse) it catches up with what just happened (including going from layer to layer if I clicked on those to get things moving). It makes it REALLY hard to work with this, and it's increased my worktime by at LEAST 45%, since I have to constantly fix this with a move of my regular mouse. During that time, I cannot click on anything with my wacom pen or use the hotkeys on the keyboard (the default ones).
    It, so far, doesn't seem that Photoshop CC has it, but I cannot update to that version. I always get to 75% or something REALLY fast, and then it says there was an error. I just don't know what's going ON with my programs. Do I have to uninstall and reinstall or something? My computer is set to optimize weekly, and I've done multiple scans to make sure I don't have a virus or something. Everything in clean, and I'm not overloaded on stuff, either. I usually only have two or three programs total open, Photoshop CC 2014 included. It ends up either being Photoshop and Firefox or Photoshop, Firefox, and iTunes to listen to music. I use a second monitor, as well, to make my flow go faster.
    Help ASAP would be VERY much appreciated! Thanks in advance!

  • Why does PhotoShop CC 2014 crash my Windows 7 Professional 64-bit PC every time I try to use Sharpen/Blur Reduction and also Noise Reduction ??!!!???

    Hi Adobe
    You a have a really wonderful PhotoShop CC product. It's really great, and I know new versions such as 2014 have their teething problems.
    But I am getting really sick of my Windows 7 Professional 64-bit PC being crashed whenever I try to use PhotoShop CC 2014 Sharpen / Blur Reduction and also Noise Reduction.
    This happens both with JPG's and PSD's.
    Please sort your **** out and get some patches out to address this quickly !!
    Chris Tattersall

    Chris,
    It doesn't crash for everyone.  A person could be forgiven for saying, in return, "Please sort out your **** system problems". 
    Trust me when I say many, many problems are caused by the computer system setup not being up to the needs of this cutting-edge graphics software.  Photoshop is heavily dependent on the GPU, and GPU drivers are notorious for having bugs (they're primarily written to run games).
    However, that being said, recent driver releases from both ATI and nVidia do actually work pretty well with Photoshop CC 2014.
    What video card do you have?
    What display driver version are you running?
    If you're unsure how to tell these things, go into Photoshop, choose Help - System Info, copy the data, and post it here.

  • Why does photoshop cc 2014 stop working when extracting 3D

    I recently acquired photoshop cc 2014 and would like to use 3D. When I try to extrude a file, my photoshop stops working. I have an AMD Radeon HD 8400 graphics card.

    Hello Mylenium,
    Thank you for the reply, how would I go about providing detailed system info? Is there an automated method that displays the necessary information? Also, it might be worth noting that my older version of Photoshop (CC x64bit (NOT 2014)) works completely fine.

  • Why did photoshop cc 2014 install separately so i lost all my plugins installations ?

    hallo,
    i have installed photoshop cc on desktop and laptop and when cc 2014 came, instead of replacing previous one, it made a separate app.
    so i needed to reinstall lot of plugins (topazlabs, niksoftware, ononesoftware, alienskinsoftware,...

    It works as it is designed and as it always has in the past - major new versions always installed separately for a million reasons.

    i installed the newest version of photoshop but every time i try to open it, it crashes then closes. i've tried a few tips from the forum, but it still won't open. is there something wrong with my computer, or the program?

  • Why doesnt photoshop cc 2014 sync automatically?

    so each time we have to press upload setting manually whenever we have changes for the setting?

    Because the sync operation confused a lot of people, and because the code behind it was not the most reliable in the world.
    So, after talking to customers, we made it simpler and more reliable by moving to a push/pull (upload/download) model.

  • Adobe Photoshop CC 2014 For Mac - Text Cursor Not Stable!

    I recently installed some fonts on my Mac Pro and besides the fact that Microsoft Office 2011 now crashes upon starting any program within that suite, I've also noticed that Photoshop, specifically the text cursor when you go to create or edit text, now changes between the arrow and the round circle of dots synonymous with a Mac. Oddly enough, I have THE EXACT same setup on my MacBook Pro and it IS NOT doing this! Has anyone come acoss this issue? I've tried everything from uninstalling and reinstalling Photoshop CC 2014 to clearing font caches using OnyX to making sure accessibility options aren't causing the issue and well beyond that! It's extremely annoying and yes I've even tried toggling between seeing the workspace background and seeing the desktop background in Photoshop and still, to no avail, this damn issue has been plaguing me all day! If anyone has a fix (besides me reformatting and reloading EVERYTHING) please, please, please post and/or e-mail me directly at [email protected] As I said, I loaded the EXACT same fonts to both my MP and MBP and the issue only arose on my MP, of course, the one that I NEED to work! Thanks SO much!

  • Photoshop CC 2014 font issues

    I'm Not entirely sure why this is happening, or what's causing it, but photoshop cc 2014 is causing some serious issues with fonts on my documents. Up until this point my company has used Extensis Suitcase Fusion to activate fonts used throughout our project docs. The 2014 typekit update and addition is somehow conflicting with either photoshop or suitcase and in return setting a large portion of my fonts to it's default or regular weight. It seems like while suitcase is auto activating the necessary fonts, typekit is reading each of those weights as their own individual fonts. This might seem difficult to understand but in any case i would just like to know if there is a way to completely deactivate typekit and or remove it's involvement in my project documents, at this point it is resetting dozens of fonts on some very important project files. I'd much rather not be limited to just the fonts that adobe or typekit prefers.

    I still don’t have a clue…

  • Why can't I download Photoshop CC(2014) and why does my Creative cloud app show updates for CC(2014) products I do not have?

    Why can't I download Photoshop CC(2014) to my Mac Pro desktop running OSX 10.9.3.  My Creative Cloud app shows updates for all apps that I have as CS6 on my desktop but I have only subscribed to Photoshop CC.  Lightroom shows Install but it is installed.  Trying to Install Photoshop CC(2014) results in and error message "Installation failed Errors encountered during installation.(7) more information.
    More information gives Exit Code: 7

    I also cannot directly download from my account on the web.  This has been going on for a week or more and I have tried numerous suggestions on the forums but got nowhere.  I uninstalled Creative Cloud app today but could not find the installer again so I assume that was deleted.  I cannot download that now as on Adobe's site it says we are experiencing problems.  Aren't we all.
    I was happy with CC until last week but now cannot recommend it.
    I also have a Macbook Pro retina and Photoshop CC(2014) downloaded no problem on that.
