Hello all, I use PhotoShop CS4 on a Mac, I have the most recent patch installed and I am on OS 10.6.8
I have a lot of nice looking fonts. When I view the font in Font Book I see how they are supposed to look in Capital, Lowercase etc.... But when I choose some,- not all, of them to be a text in PS I get some plain Ariel looking font. Is this a PS thing of a FontBook/Apple thing
Second Question: Should I keep Bitmap version of fonts if I have the TT or PostScript. Are there any artistic things you can do with a Bit Map font in Ps as opposed to the other types.
Thank you.
Sounds like corrupted files, either Photoshop's preferences or the font cache.
Try holding down Command+Option+Shift as you launch Photoshop until you see the dialog box asking you if you want to delete preferences, click yes.
You can use Cocktail, Onyx or any such utility to clear all your font caches.
