I'm getting the same crash upon trying to input text using the text tool that some others have reported. Specifically, the crash occurs somewhere between 1 and 10 seconds after I begin using the tool. If I type really fast then press escape I can avoid the crash. I started seeing the crash after the update from whatever version I was on before (I don't remember exactly, but it was a recent version, maybe 3.5.8) to 3.5.10
I've searched the forums here for solutions and while I was behind on Windows updates when the problem started, I am completely up to date now but still seeing the problem. I've also tried reinstalling & rebooting, and off a tip from a google search I deleted the fntcache.dat file from windows\system32, those things didn't work.
I'm running Windows XP here on my work computer, I have a Windows 7 computer at home and Paint.net works fine there.
EDIT: I tried a bunch of assorted older versions and the same crash was happening in those too, which leads me to believe that maybe the timing of the onset of the crash and the update to 3.5.10 was just a coincidence.
Crash log:
This text file was created because Paint.NET crashed.
