Has a solution to this been found? I have the same issue, and amazingly I've had it on 4 different machines. I've never been able to apply the text tool in paint.net without getting a crash.
First machine was an WinXP Thinkpad that I did .net development on. Always had that problem there.
Second one was a Win Vista 32 desktop at home. Same problem
Now I have a new work rig, a Win7 64 HP EliteBook 8560p laptop. Same problem
And now I bought a semi-powerful gaming rig at home, alswo with Win7 64... and same problem.
This doesn't seem to be connected to OS or machine in any way. In all cases have I been up to date on OS as well as .NET upgrades.
Please, if anyone has an idea.

Ivar
