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.

  1. Open the Hindi text in WORD
  2. Highlight the text
  3. Press CTRL+C on the keyboard to copy the text and put it on the clipboard
  4. Open the picture file in PSE
  5. Press CTRL+V to paste the text on the picture file. It will come in on a separate layer.
  6. Position the text with the move tool, and resize, if necessary, with the corner handles

@hatstead thanks a lot for quick reply but I think you didn't read the question properly. I said the same Hindi font is working in ms word but as soon as I copy it from ms word file to Photoshop with the same font enabled it shows weird boxes. so, copy and paste is not working even if the same font is enabled in both applications.

Please post something in Hindi text here. I should like to try pasting the message on to a picture file as a block of text, I.e . not using the type tool in PSE.
