Question

Word Wrap

How do you wrap words in Photoshop? It's a short paragraph, but it must stay within the margins of the design. If you don't know what word wrap is, do you see how at the end of the first line of this message the text jumps down a line automatically? I didn't put that line break in there. It was automatically added because the text exceeded the width of its confining container. That's word wrap.

Hi

Have you tried paragraph text, see section 3 in the below link

Many times, it behaves differently each time. Yesterday, the text was above the box. Later, it was below the box. It's always formatted with way too much whitespace. It looks like there are a couple of carriage returns before the first line of text and double-spaced after that. I resent having to undo so much unrequested formatting. I never asked for it to put in Lorem Ipsum text. Is there a way to make Photoshop allow me to enter text like I do in these Community form fields and then format it how I want after I'm done typing or pasting?
