Color profiles are silently discarded for the placed screenshot thumbnails on Mac
Can we fix the strange discarding of the color profile when dragging a screenshot thumbnail into an open Illustrator document (Mas OS — Command+shift+4, or Command+shift+3, or Command+shift+5). The thumbnail appears in the corner of the screen prior to the screenshot being saved to the Desktop.
Using File>Place, or copying/pasting from any other program, or even dragging and dropping a screenshot from the desktop or other folder all cue a warning if there is a profile mismatch. And to my experience, placing in any of those ways does not change the document profile, regardless of what I choose when the…

Cannot link PDF into an AI file. When opening the file an Unknown error is detected. Help us investigate further....
However opening Illustrator in a Intel based version on the M1 mac it will open without issue. However as this feature apparently is going to be removed it will cause major issues for me.

Using blending modes with embedded images now gives darker colors
In version 28 transparency in embedded images doesn't work the same way it worked in version 27, thus making impossible to use older files with the new version.
Transparency (as in soft light, overlay...) gives a different result, usually darker, flatter.
Looks like the issue is with embedded images, not linked, but since I need to use images in patterns I need to embed them.1 vote -

Illustrator (still) cannot read TIF files.
When can we remedy this? I cannot open or place a TIF file in Illustrator 27.6.1. The error message is the file is an unknown format and can't be opened.
There are reports on this page still open from 2021. When will this be fixed?
I have several TIFs from a museum to lay out for printing and I'm having to individually bring them all in to photoshop and export them as a different format.

"The file is not readable" Can't paste image into Illustrator without saving it to computer
When I try to paste an image I copied from pinterest/google etc, it always shows "the file is not readable". Now I have to save every image I want and then drag and drop/place it in illustrator. Which is an additional step I don't need and is very frustrating.
I've never had this problem before. Can anyone help?

Bitmap images change color
I'm using Illustrator 27.4.1 on Mac OS Ventura 13.2, but I've had this problem for several years.
I link to 1-bit BMPs and color them with a swatch.
When I have multiple BMPs using multiple colors, the preview will often change to one of the other swatches. It does not export this way, but makes it a challenge to design.
The fill color is still displayed in the toolbar correctly, but previews incorrectly until I swap the fill and stroke color twice. When i click somewhere else it will change again. In the screen recording, the bottom bmps should be…

画像を置き換えで配置すると、操作がおかしくなる
私だけですか？例えば、WEB製作中、スライダーの画像をいくつか選ぼうとします。１つマスクをかけて、作成します。
それをコピーして、一つは候補として置いておき、１つの画像を選択し、候補の画像を入れ替えます。ほぼ、１回、前回は２回でそれ以降、イラレがスムーズに機能しなくなります。
WEB制作で仕事で使っているので非常に困惑しています。
