P: Helvetica Neue Bold doesn't render spaces under Lion

Loaded up some PSDs that I had created in Snow Leopard after installing Lion and they looked fine... except for one thing. Anywhere that I used Helvetica Neue Bold there were no spaces in between words anymore.

This issue doesn't occur in anything else other than Photoshop (I've actually also seen it in Illustrator). Tried clearly Adobe font cache, multiple times... no dice. It would be very awesome to get a solution on this because it's preventing me from using that font, which is used quite often.

I'm trying to use the Print module (and the LR templates) to create the following:
I want 2 different photos to have 2 different watermarks (for example Alaska and Hawaii).
I'm trying to use the Custom (2) 4x6 template for either making a print or saving as a jpeg file for other purposes.
However, when I select only one photo and set the watermark, the watermark is automatically added to both photos. 
It would be nice to be able to individually watermark different photos.
Thanks

Apple fixed this in subsequent releases of OS X (10.7.x) or later.

All I can say is that we are working with Apple on this issue and hope to have it resolved soon.

We're still working with Apple on it. Since the problem affects many applications, including non-Adobe applications, the fix isn't likely to come from individual applications.

Apple has just released OS X 1.7.1, but the problem remains.

Will Adobe do something about it?

Same problem. How can we get notified as soon as this is fixed?

That means the fix won't come from Adobe's side?

We've been in contact with Apple. They are aware of the problem and are working on a fix, probably in a future update.

Not sure. Depends on how they fix it. They may end up re-shipping a "fixed" font, or it may be a software issue within CS.

Have any errors occurred for you from changing something? I haven't encountered anything, and I'm thinking it's pretty safe and future-proof.
