  • Extendscript Text Casing/Font Problem

    Posted by Nicholas Ho on July 11, 2023 at 10:24 pm

    Hi,

    We use extendscript to composite thumbnails, and we’re finding that there are odd failures where the text randomly has odd casing.

    We can confirm that the whole Text Area actually has the correct Font and Text Parameters set on it, but for some reason that this could be happening? We’re overwriting the text that exists previously, but it’s very odd.

    If we re-run it again, it won’t happen again.

    That is very odd seeing the “H” in “The” having a different font and boldness compared to the rest of the text, if everything else is set correctly with the font, size and boldness like you said, have you tried just highlighting the letter “H” and changing the text, size and boldness to the same settings? Perhaps it can pinpoint what is the font its currently using in that H. If not, try closing the program and maybe restart your computer. Then reopen the application to see if it goes back to normal if its set as its supposed to be originally. Hope it helps!

    Is the font by chance an Adobe font?
