Hi,

I bought Design & Web premium (NL), and I have a question about the spacing between characters in Photoshop, does someone now how to fix it? To show it's not a font-problem i used Verdana, Arial and now Tahoma, all with the same problems........I checked, all the text spacing is 0.

Can someone help me with this?

Thanks in advance!

By the way: sorry for my bad English..... : )

Hi,

Try changing kerning from Metric to Optical.

Another option is to switch off Fractional Widths.

Can you make the PSD available for download?

Hope this helps :-)

Assign this option in paragraph menu. It worked for me.

It could be helpful to describe exactly how you created the text you're showing here. Is it upscaled from a smart object?

I ask because it's also fuzzier than it ought to be, implying it's been rasterized at some point.

Edit: Never mind, I see I'm too slow.
