I had this problem for a while, seems like no one has answered at all. I'll take a crack at it here, since there's handful of talented and knowledgable fotoshopppers =P

Ok, now my problem is, I can't type chinese language using the font tool. Yes I try and paste it from M$ word. But that makes it look bad because of the BG color (paste in as well). Also I re-install photoshop 4x times at least. Those 3 times I installed along with an option checked off (advanced --> support asian language font). Not to mentioned earlier, I had all the language installed via the control panel. Still I can't paste any words under those new variety of fonts (they had chinese, japanese, etc,etc). It didn't show up as characters but turned out to be a blank space when I paste the text in.

Also there is no *Arial MS unicode* as one of my font selection (don't know why, I used to have that back in M$ paint). Another thing, chinese font pack doesn't really help at all =/

suggestions and opinions are welcome

What version of Windows are you using? On XP Pro you can go into Control Panel -> Regional and Language Options -> Languages tab -> Text services and input languages -> Details -> Default input language

and add Chinese or any other language, which will make the language bar appear on your desktop... making it easy to switch between input languages.

a chinese font is going to install too so u can type in the word processor and then paste it in Photoshop and using the same font the program uses :thumb:
