Photoshop 2025 type tool bug. MAC os

When I attempt to import plain text using the type tool, it’s going in italicised. Then I’m unable to get it back to regular. I had to load Photoshop 2024 before it worked properly.

Please show your Character panel (Window menu). It might be Fake (Faux) Italics, which you can find in the buttons at the bottom or in the panel menu.

 

The Character panel will also show if it is real italics toward the top of the Character panel.

 

Resetting the Type tool (options bar) will also clear Faux Italics and Faux Bold.

Hey, @Richard Quindry. Welcome to the Photoshop Community. I'll move this post to discussions. I'll need more info to help you figure this out. Please share the system info from Photoshop Help > System info > Copy and paste into a text document > upload and attach here. 

 

In this case, you can begin by resetting the Type tool itself. Right-click on the Type Tool icon in the Toolbar menu and select Reset Tool.
