I’m posting this on behalf of a friend’s description on another forum. I’ve seen this problem several times, but have yet to see a definitive solution. Has one been discovered yet?
– – – – – –
Using Photoshop CS I am trying to make an action that inserts my signature, something like "© Frederic"
I built the action as follows:
– New action
– Choose Text tool, click on image, type text: "© …" – Click Commit text checkmark
– Stop Recording
While the action is being recorded, no problem. It adds the text layer with letters properly positioned.
When I open a new image and try the action, all the characters appear in the same position, stacked on top of one another.
See this example of letters on top of themselves when the action is applied: <http://fhoude34.free.fr/IP6G7514.jpg>
I tried the following to no avail:
* Different images
* Images with different resolution
* Different fonts
* Different font size
* Rasterizing the text layer
It’s also worthy of note that once the text layer is created I am not able to modify the text even though the layer has not been rasterized.
A successful workaround: Have someone record the action in PS7 and e-mail it to me. Same font. The PS7 create action works fine, but this is an unacceptable solution.
Is this a known problem or is there a solution for it?
