Patchman, how are you opening DDS files with P'shop? I have PS CS6, and for the stock program, DDS is not a supported file type. I have to use a converter like ICP before I can apply PS. If you are using a plug-in to PS to convert to/from DDS, the plug-in may be doing something funny. After you add the text, do you flatten the image before you save it? (I don't know if PS Essentials allows this. I only use full PS.) PS puts the type in a separate layer and doesn't convert it to bitmap until the image is flattened. Your converter may not be handling this layer properly.
