My numbers and punctuation glitching on Photoshop. Help? [2012] [CS6]

When typing numbers or punctuation on Photoshop CS6, they always glitch and go back to the beginning of the sentence and can't be made to go after the letters. I can't think of anything that's wrong. Please help!

Carl's option worked for me as well. Thanks for a glitchy program Photoshop . I hope they correct this with a patch so people won't have to use this odd workaround! Good luck everyone.

Thank you so much for this. I've had my brain wrapped around this problem for over an hour trying all sorts of diagnostics recommended by folk. You're a life saver.

This worked for me. This is what I did..

Type>Language Options> Set to Middle Eastern Features> Click Left-to-right Character Direction.

And in order to enable the "Left-to-right character direction" tab, you actually HAVE to set your language option to Middle Eastern.

Good Luck. This has bothered me for months! smh.

That worked for me. And you can return to the default language option and keep the setting. I'd like to know what I did to trigger this suddenly. I assume a hidden key command. A time waster for sure. Thanks for sharing.

So I found solution by myself ...

Adobe CS6 x64:

1. [top menu] Edit / Preferences / Type... / select Middle Eastern

2. restart Photosop CS6 x64

3. [top menu] Type / Language Options / select Middle Eastern Features

4. [top menu] Window / Paragraph / select as it is on picture below...

If the language trick doesn't work, go to your PARAGRAPH>RESET PARAGRAPH

It did the trick for me!
