Hi,


I use a PC, when i copy a character from the Charater map application, and paste it into photoshop texttool, it doesn’t show the right character - It works in Illustrator/indesign, but someway Photoshop is deciding that this is not the character I want to use...

It’s a basic function and it has always worked - But now it doesn’t work anymore. 

Must say, that this release of Photoshop is the buggiest release ever.

Please finish the program before releasing it - you are destroying a good program, in your obsession of getting 2 releases out every year...

Kind regards

Kresten

Have you check that the font you are using has the character you want to use,  All fonts do not have all characters. Often special characters require you to change to a font that has them  A text layer can contain more than a single font. Is the font you are useing in the text tool the same font you have in character map?

The new upgrade to photoshop did remove the BUG.

And yes I checked that the font was the real one - Did you even bother to recreate the problem?

Kind regards

I could not test you did not provide the details like Font  and  chacter. This site guidlines should help know  what you should post when you have a problem.  

Also CS6 was the buggiest Photoshop version  ever release the first CS6 update addressed 506 core issues and the  were sever more update need for CS6.   At least the  first CS6 update made CS6 stable.  I could not  even use it for the  first five months it crashed all over the place. I use CS5 for five months after I installed CS6.
