Hi,
I have photoshop CS3. It worked ok on an old install of Win XP Pro. But recently i was forced to reinstall a new version of Win XP Pro.
Now on this new install. I have found some strange things occuring with text. When i type in text and click apply or finalize the text, the text appears broken, with strange characters, and strange bar code type of lines appearing on my entire design. When i double click the layer it goes away.
Again when i select that text layer and try cycling thru fonts in the character tool panel suddenly some fonts cause lines to appear over the entire poster design. It looks like as if the graphics card has gone amuck kind of look. A broken and distorted look. So i thought lets save or check the final output and i was shocked to see the same artifacts in the saved jpeg file too.
Then when i open the original at times the problem isnt there. But then it comes back in a few minutes or when i touch that text layer for any edits.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Regards
