Text becoming misaligned when rotated (PhotoShop 2021)

I'm trying to add some text to a photograph and desire to rotate the entire text slightly to the right. When I do so the letters in the text box become misaligned. How do I rotate the text without the letters becoming misaligned as a result of the rotation?

Are you in illustrator or photoshop? Photoshop Edit>Transform>Rotate. This is misaligned your letters?

Yes. I enter the text on the photo, then go to the text layer and select the text. Then transform and then rotate. When I do so the letters in the text box become misaligned.

Thanks for taking the time to reply and your efforts to assist. It's too bad that all the text graphics aren't vector-based as it would certainly simplify their manipulation as well as eliminate a lot of steps to do a simple job. For me, my little work around works for what I need and maybe others might find it of value. Have a great weekend. 🙂


Photoshop is for the most part a raster image editor.

Illustrator is a vector graphics editor.
