Photoshop Text type way too large
2011.09.13
I was working on designing a comp for my new website Lastvine today and came across the strangest photoshop bug. I chose the font Arial with the size of 12px, but for whatever reason it as rendering a lot larger. Super strange problem, but the fix is even stranger. edit > perferences > units & rulers and going to point / pica size, unchecking postscript and checking it again worked.
Link from 2005 showed the fix. http://forums.devshed.com/photoshop-help-88/font-size-in-text-tool-way-too-big-237357.html. Why hasn’t adobe fixed this in CS5?
