Photoshop CS4 freezes when adding text...

Typing text into a rectangle box freezes Photoshop with the unclose-able error box ''Could not complete your request because of a program error''



Force quit and clean-start with command-option-shift Start Photoshop and still same error. I can type text into the box for about 10-20 characters and then error box again.



Using PS CS4 v11.0 with OS 10.5.6 with G5 Dual 2 Ghz PowerPC accessing files on external firewire drive.



Any suggestions?

Unless it is a PowerPC issue i would say you have a corrupt font and a corrupt font cache.



I works better then ever here on a MacIntel.

Warren,



Sounds like a duplicate or corrupted font issue.



Neil

Right you are.



Corrupted font cache(s).



Cleaned out and dumped all caches with Cocktail and restarted clean. A-OK now.



Thank you.

I notice every time I post something here and it is the obvious answer someone else also post the same thing?



Intriguing!
