I want to make a text graphic but when I type text it comes out so minute you cant even read it even if you set the font to 72 pts what am i doing wrong??

You have to check you "dpi" setting.

Go to the adjust menu, select "Image Size," look at the dip setting down at the bottom of the dialog. You should be working at 72dpi. If not, uncheck "resample" and type in 72 and click OK. Now the font point sizes will make more sense.

Are you sure you're selecting the proper layers, and that you are selecting the font entirely? Are you making a sized box for the text, by accident?

I've never heard of that problem, but a complete reinstall? Do you have any actions? And what about all your presets, and actions?? Be sure to back all that shit up first.

Have you tried formatting the C: drive?
