Font looks different in Photoshop than on System and other Adobe Tools

My fonts look different in Photoshop, much more narrow.

First example from Illustrator: Frutiger LT Pro 65 Bold and Roboto Regular

Second example same fonts in Photoshop 20.0.1

Check Paragraph Styles, Advance Character Formats, Horizontal Scale should be 100%.

This fixed it for me, when I created a new paragraph style and switched over to it. But I can not identify any values in the basic paragraph style that cloud cause the problem. Anyway thank you for your kind support.

And make sure that Horizontal scale is set to 100% in the Character panel.

This was also my thought, but this looks fine

Start by checking your document's pixel aspect ratio.

Pixel Aspect in PS is set to squared, so should be fine.
