Attached is a screen shot of my issue. The font is fuzzy and bold in the drop down menus. I'm on a mac and using photoshop version 22.5.1. Anyone else experience this or have a fix? TIA

Anything to do with your UI settings?  I've just tried setting mine to 200% and restarted, but it has not given me the fat font effect in your screen shot.  I always work with UI font size set to large.

This is what I see with those settings (remember to click to see at 100%).

What version of macOS are you using?

 

Does your Mac have an M1 Processor?

Can you clarify what you mean by "bold"? The unavailable commands are gray, but you must mean something else.

 

Can you check other applications (such as a browser) to see if you have the same issue?

It only happens in Photoshop. When I say bold, I meant that the drop-down text is all bold which I've never seen before. I don't mind the bold but the text is fuzzy/out of focus.

That could be caused by a corrupt system font.
