Issue #1
Type handling issues have increased this past month on eBay. The system has a hard time accepting changes to fonts. Like using Tahoma over Ariel. I will select all, change the font to Tahoma. Then I look at the listing and my listing type is expressed in THREE different typefaces. None of which I choose.
Issue #2
Font sizes do not operate correctly. I will have two lines of 18pt text, select the second line and change the font size from 18 to 14. The text size does not change. I have to select another font, and then immediately change it back to Tahoma in order for the text size change to occur.
Issue #3:
Text in the listing description disappears. You have to copy a line that is showing, then delete that line. At that point ALL the text shows up, then you have to paste the line back.
Issue #4:
I am trying to make a marketing banner in my store. I cannot use the Banner Title "We're Crafty" because the single apostrophe does not show up.
Please do not deflect these issues by telling me it is my system. I run a completely updated Windows 10 with only three applications installed on this machine: Adobe CS, Libre Office and Google Chrome. I have checked for the drivers listed somewhere as causing the problem, I do not have any of them.
Come on people, type is the best way to make your listings look professional. I can't create professional looking listings with all the font handling problems I'm experiencing on a daily basis.
This is low hanging fruit in the world of text handling. Why eBay can't get these simple functions working is frustrating.
THIS HAS GOT TO BE FIXED!

I thought I was the only one. Your issue #1 is my problem (I use an up-to-date Chrome browser on a Mac).
