Hi there,
when searching for some way to align my text better in a photoshop file i stumbled upon something in the help files called the ‘type composer’. According to the help file this should be useful to let photoshop decide where to break the text line. However, even after reading the help documents i couldn’t find a way to make it actually work. The options ‘Adobe Every-line composer’ and ‘Single-line composer’ as mentioned in the help file (which supposedly should be on the paragraph tab) are nowhere to be found. And even then, the help files aren’t very clear on how to use this feature. I’ve already searched the newsgroups and forums but couldn’t find an answer on this. Does anyone have any ideas?

I haven’t used this so don’t know much about it, but with the Type tool drag a box rather than just clicking on the canvas. When you type the text will conform to the box and the Every Line Composer and Single Line Composer will appear in the flyout menu in the Paragraph palette. Good Luck.
