I want to create an image with some text written on it. The text which is to be written is in Hindi language and I have that text in a ms word file. But I don't know Hindi typing so the only option I have is to copy and paste that text from ms-word file as it is. Now the problem is the same font is working in ms-word file properly but as I soon as I copy it to Photoshop with the same font enabled, it is showing something weird boxes. In short, Hindi font is working for ms-word but same Hindi font is not working for Photoshop particularly in case of copy and paste. Not only one font, I tried many of them but problem is the same for every font. Please help. Proper answer will be greatly appreciated.

You must use a font with the Hindi characters in fact. There won't be many fonts. If a font does not have a character, it usually will appear as a box.

Choose the text tool to change the font, and you can change the font from the options bar (at the top).

Thanks and Regards Fahad Khan.

Any simple solution after all these years? It's shameful at this point. It's nearly 2019 and problem still persists on the latest version (20.0.1).

Ayush,

This thread is about photoshop elements.

Photoshop CC 2019 has Middle Eastern features which means one should be able to type the text in photoshop instead of pasting.

I know. PS is more versatile than PSE. Still... simple copy-pasting Hindi text should just work without any trouble.

I am trying to do this too - I am English and can't read or write Sanskrit, but I have to design some graphics in different languages/alphabets. Someone has emailed a Word doc to me with the correct text, but when pasting into Photoshop it changes it. Any clues? it's driving me mad! Thanks

I had the same problem 4 years back. I solved it by not using Unicode. Copy paste of Hindi unicode and its fonts like Mangal or Mathura etc. never work. Instead I downloaded some specialized softwares which were made specifically to type Indian languages. The most famous (but paid after 30 days trial) that worked for me is Baraha. It worked perfectly when I had to design pages for Hindi text.

For that, first you need to pay some time (around half an hour) learning how to use Baraha. After that, all is easy. Make a Baraha rtf ANSI file after you type the hindi stuff you want, and then copy-paste will work.

Let me know in case you don't follow. I will help you out.

Here are some sample shots

Shot 1: First type the stuff you want. It also has a tutorial how to type in Phonetic way

Shot 2: Then Export it as RTF (ANSI) and open the file.

Shot 3: Now copy the text from the file (for example, here I have opened RTF in MS Word). Make sure that you notice that font is BRH Devnagari.

Shot 4: After you paste text, if it shows weird symbols, Select all text (Ctrl+A) and change font to BRH Devnagari. It will work without problem.

PSE is not a text editor. That is why I suggested that you copy the text available to you in your WORD document as a "print screen", then paste it to the picture. Windows 7 has the Snipping tool which facilitates this process. Your equipment may vary.
