Ive tried following resolutions given on here and google.

My type is set to 'Default features', but although words are writing in the correct direction, when I press space bar, the next work starts to type before the text id just entered.

Not sure why this is happening now after 3 years of using Photoshop just fine.

    Do you have Middle Eastern features enabled? If you do, then the Paragraph panel has a button to select left to right (or right to left) typing. Try that first.

    Have you tried resetting the Type tool from the options panel (not Tools panel)? Right-click or use the drop-down menu. If that doesn't work, go to Help > System Info and paste the contents here.
