Photoshop Elements :: 10 On Mac - Fonts Not Rendering Properly?
Feb 17, 2014
I have PS Elements 10 for Mac. I've been trying to figure out why my text is not rendering properly. I type out a word and although caps lock is OFF, the text shows up in all caps. Also, the spacing between letters is wide. I've been trying to search through options, but can't find anything.
So today I was editing and I finished, so I tried to render it so I can have in a .avi. But once I rendered it I got no errors or nothing. So I went to the desktop were it should have been placed, I loaded it and it didn't render properly after a couple of secs the music stops playing and I didn't get the glow effects or the full edit. How do I fix this tell me if you need sertain information.
I'm trying to project a normal map from a high poly model onto its low-poly version but I'm having some problems.
I modeled some details on the high-poly model as you can see in FIG.1.
The details all have the same depth and everything as can be seen on FIG.2
But yet when the normal map renders, the detail loses depth the further they go from the center and the squarish detail at the bottom doesn't even show up at all. (FIG.3)
I tried pretty much everything I could think of to fix this, but nothing works.
Max 2010, Windows 7 Ultimate x86. ATI Radeon 4870 512 MB. Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 Wolfdale (2x3.0ghz), 4Gb Ram, DX10.
I can't seem to get max to render to texture properly with network rendering. it renders just fine on one machine, but whenever i run it through the network option it saves the wron part of the strip.
I have tried it with several different machines and several different files and none of them work.
I have noticed this as an occasional random ongoing problem in Lightroom and just encountered it again in LR 5, running on Win 7 64 on a 30" 2560x1600 monitor. While the develop view renders properly, the louple view is very soft. Here is an example:
1:1 from Develop
1:1 from loupe
There is no indication that you need to wait for the final rendering and the image never gets sharper. Zooming in and out does not fix the rendering in loupe view. Resizing the lightroom window to a smaller size does not work. Rebuilding 1:1 previews does not work.
The only thing that works is to close and reopen Lightroom. It appears that some flag in the program instructing the loupe rerender sometimes does not get set.
This is a serious problem because a user could easily decide to delete an image based on the loupe view. This has forced me to preview all my images in PhotoMechanic. I simply cannot rely on Lightroom.
This is a difficult problem to reproduce as it seems to happen randomly. In a search and based on recollection, the zoom in and out seemed to fix.
I have an on going issue with quite a few of my files. They look great in photoshop or when I save them as .jpg's or other images but when i save them as .pdf's (no matter the setting) the fonts render horribly showing only faint outlines and no fill. This is a major issue as I am sure you can see.
I have problem with my max on laptop.Sometimes I don't want to use dedicated GPU because of battery live. So I'm using only integrated HD 4000 form my i7 CPU.Max works good. But I can't read any font in viewport.
Once I installed windows 7, while I WAS using PSE 9, I had the tiny font problem. I stopped using PSE for 2 years. I just installed PSE 11. Though better, the Font is still way smaller than I would like. Maybe it's just tougher for seniors? Can they not make the font adjustable? I was told there is no way to increase the size of the font?
Suddenly, CorelDraw X4 is not reading all my fonts properly. I can select them from the list in a document, but all I get is a box and no text in it. I am running XP on this machine.
I got calls from 3 of the DRAW users that some of the fonts are not displaying correctly since they have updated their Windows today. I have not yet connected my laptop to internet. Shall check it and try to identify the culprit update.Few fonts known for not displaying correctly since today.
I cannot get PSE 10 organizer to work properly.......I will open the program and then click on the file drop down menu and the organizer will give me an error message that organizer has stopped working......My OS is Windows 7 on a 64 bit system and I had the computer specifically custom built to operate PSE...
Organizer has stopped working for me. When I try to launch it, the "credits" screen flashes briefly, but then nothing is displayed. If I try an option, like "Get Photos and Videos," then nothing happens, and all the options become grayed out. I just upgraded from PSE 10 to 11, and I created a new catalog. The organizer was working fine last night, but not today.
Working with a given picture of a person, and clicking "Mark Face", the square framing box pops up in the upper left had corner of the photograph. When I drag it and resize it around the face, the "who's this?" button does not follow. The name is typed in the "who's this?" button and the green "accept" arrow is clicked. Immediately, the framing box resizes and returns to the upper left hand corner of the photo (not a face area), and is labled with the name of the person, but is clearly not associated with the face.
I have a mac with the latest version of Snow Leopard. Since yesterday, when I upload photos to Organizer, the image thumbnails do not generate at a small thumbnail size. Each image has an hour glass on it but the thumbnails of the images do not generate. Thumbnails of images will only generate when I zoom into 1, 2, or 3 images in the oragnizer catalog window. When I want to zoom out to have more thumbnails appear in my catalog window, an hour glass appears again on each thumbnail. This problem only occurs with the images that I have uploaded or edited with PSE since yesterday.
Can normally use brushes to remove or add back part of a mask, not letting me do this at the moment, why? Also trying to use detailed smart brush but it is not letting me use on selected areas it is adding effect to whole image
Photoshop Elements 11 gives the opportunity to share pictures with Facebook. The facebook uploader doesn't work for me. Uploading in high resolution won't work at all. But even in standard resolution, the following problems occur:
1) uploader does not recognise albums in facebook, and
2) worst of all: uploades images won't be visible to friends, unless they dive into yout profile. I mean: in the uploader window i choose: visible to friends. When i log on to facebook, the images are there, but they are tagged as privat. Untagging them to 'visible for friends' won't work.
While uploading al settings are correct, in Facebook settings become different.
on my IMAC 10.9.1 with Mavericks. I am very disappointed with Adobe as I paid for service warranty as well ($39) and I am scheduled for another call as the third team tries.Could this be a.s.a.p or should I write CEo Shantanu Narayen and express my displeasure or blog it?
I made a slide show in Elements 11 that will play from elements beautifully. I have burned it to cd 3 times and still it will not open, on the same computer. Says it will not open because it is the wrong type of file. What am I doing wrong? when I open it in Elements, it is exactly what I wanted. I need a cd to play at a graduation party, but it just WON'T work..
Detail Smart Brush use to have the same brightness as Smart Brush as in Bright Eyes, Whiten Teeth, etc. Now when I use Smart Brush, I get the same brightness as always, but when I try to use the Detail Brush, it is darker than Smart Brush. It used to be that I could go over an area as many times as I wanted without an accumulation of brightness with the Detail Brush. Now if I go over an area I already went over, it lightens it more. Have I done something to cause this? How can I get it back to the way it was before (and the way I can still use Elements 11 which I did not uninstall). I tried Sign Out, uninstall and making a new install but the problem was there again. Is it possible that this was updated by Adobe and intentionally changed?
"Set Font Family" doesn't work on pse 9. Font is stuck on myriad_pro. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling pse 9 to no avail. Then I downloaded an update of pse 9. I still can't change fonts.
I cannot access my fonts menu. The drop down menu is blank box and snaps shut. I also have trouble with "save as" and file format...ie save as jpg...the drop down quickly snaps shut, I can often catch it after several tries but seriously lol.
These issues have something to do with user settings...I made a secondary account and the program works fine but changing between accounts is not the best solution. Where/what I need to look at in user settings ?
how can I set compatability in photoshop elements? Fonts are to small to read. I have tried all settings in properties no luck. OS Win7 64 Asus 1080i HD moniter.
