Shoeboat Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 It doesn't matter if I copy and paste or type using the Thai keyboard, it comes up as identical squares. I have a Mac which was purchased in Thailand and has a Thai keyboard and fonts installed. Please help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genericnic Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 @Shoeboat, I just tried it and had no problem. You have to do a couple of things. In your System Preferences, in the Languages & Text tab you have to activate the Thai entry. You then have to activate theThai keyboard when you start to add text in Photoshop. Command-Space switches between Thai and English. In the Text layer in Photoshop, you have to select a Thai font to use. The one I tried was Krungthep. Was able to add Thai text with no problem. If you don't have a Thai font on your computer (I am pretty sure Macs have one built in), you can find them on the Internet. As an experiment, I left the Thai keyboard selected and switched to a Western font in the text layer and all I got was the squares. Hope that helps David 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
