    I am working on deliverables for a DVD Special feature and the client is asking for final mock ups (pdf’s) with coordinates and character count/line break info (to be used for translations)…
    We have designed all of the “screens” in Photoshop CS2 and have NO idea how to find out how many characters will fit on a line and where the line breaks are.

    ANY help is greatly appreciated as we are coming up on our deadline quickly and I am completely lost.

    You have to Count them manually

    A line break is when text wraps to the next line

    Character count is how many letters including spaces per line.

    Count em up
