Text box auto deletes on backspace

Recommended Posts

New issue - just appeared yesterday and has happened again this morning.

With text tool, click inside text box:

when backspace to delete a character - the whole text box is deleted

when word is selected and enter - the whole text box is deleted.

App words normally again after - re Launch

I am using version 1.10.5 and the problem still exists as far as I am concerned, likewise this affects documents started from scratch. If I start a new text box using Arial 12pt regular I get strange almost indecipherable text as shown below. Closing down publisher and reopening the file cures the problem for the most part but does not cure the new text box issue shown below.image.png.f258c0967239a6b8568cda6f98d682e5.png

I think you may have changed the defaults for the new text frames or the default for the [no style] paragraph and / or character styles. Go to Preferences > Miscellaneous and hit the Reset Default Text Styles. 

Then I would quit and restart Publisher.

Mac Pro (Late 2013) Mac OS 12.7.4 
Affinity Designer 2.4.1 | Affinity Photo 2.4.1 | Affinity Publisher 2.4.1 | Beta versions as they appear.

I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that.

Hi Bruce

Thanks for reaching out and providing this advice. I did as you suggested and whilst the problem does not appear to affect a new document it still exists with documents that have it. The only thing I can suppose is that it might relate to the export of the document(s) as PDF's. This seems to be the only common factor I can find so far.
