  1. 【要望】文字組み更新機能が本当にいらない&邪魔です。

    せめて無効に出来るとか設定追加してほしいです。
    他デザイナーから受け取った最終データを書き出した際にハングル文字が混じった状態になっていました。
    ウィンドウも毎回邪魔ですし余計な機能です。
    せっかくレイアウトに合わせて文字組みした状態なのに勝手に変換されて崩れるのも困りますし、バグも多いし全然嬉しいと思った場面がないです。

    何か新しい取り組みの一環なのか知りませんが
    このような機能を追加するなら有効/無効が選択できる状態で実装してください。
    文字組みは自分でやります。

  2. Eyedropper tool breaks Chinese/English mixed text after recent update

    Title: Eyedropper tool breaks Chinese/English mixed text after recent update

    Description:
    In previous versions of Illustrator, when working with sentences containing both English and Chinese text, the Eyedropper tool worked correctly:

    If I applied a new font with Eyedropper, only the English letters would switch to the sampled font.

    The Chinese characters would remain in their original font, preventing missing glyphs or “tofu” boxes.

    After the recent update, this behavior has changed:

    When I select the entire sentence and use Eyedropper, Illustrator now forces the entire string (including Chinese) into the sampled font.

    Since the sampled font usually does not…

  3. Make the Illustrator Home Screen Responsive

    Problem:
    Right now, the Home screen is center-justified and fixed-width. On wide monitors, this creates huge blank space between the left sidebar and the file previews. Even worse, recent projects are hidden off-screen until the app window is stretched far enough. They don’t wrap, resize, or scroll, they just vanish.

    Why this sucks:
    Users with wide displays waste massive amounts of screen real estate.
    Important files appear to be “missing” unless you manually widen the window.
    The layout looks like an old webpage centered in a box, not professional software.

    Screenshots attached:
    Welcome screen: can’t see all projects unless window…

  4. Support compressing images with WebP when exporting via Adobe PDF Presets

    When exporting a PDF, there are several options to compress images: JPEG, JPEG 2000, ZIP. And we can choose the image quality, from Min to Max. To a degree, PDF file sizes can be reduced with these settings, but at a certain point the image quality is too poor for anything meaningful. WebP has incredibly high quality for a low file size, plus it supports an alpha channel.

    This feature would automatically benefit Photoshop and InDesign as well, as they share these presets.

  6. Allow turn off of "Search Preferences" in Preference popup.

    The default cursor location in the Preference popup used to be the "Keyboard Increment" field. Now there is a "Search Preference" search field that has the default cursor location. PLEASE add a function to turn that Search Preference OFF, so the default cursor location is back to "Keyboard Increments".

    Illustrator power users know where everything is in that Preference popup. I don't need to search for preferences.

    I rely upon fast Keyboard Shortcut toggling to quickly change the Keyboard Increment. Now that the Search Preferences ruins the default location of the cursor and the TAB order, completely messing up my…

  7. Proper UI for text box conversions between auto-width, auto-height, and fixed-height

    The current way to convert text boxes feels very cumbersome. There really should be a 3 item toggle (properties panel?) for quick conversions to:

    Single height
    Fixed height
    Auto height

    And there shouldn't be an overset text penalty if converting to single height.

  8. Button for place the element on the last or first layer

    For the layer’s order, create an option for the last or the first position as the computer’s version … better for us for organize the layers

  9. Our own custom new document templates

    It would be great if we could have our own folder in which to store our customized NEW DOCUMENT TEMPLATES and have it in the row where RECENT, SAVED, MOBILE, WEB, PRINT... are stored.

    There is also an error when saving a template in the templates folder:

  10. Improve Save a Copy as PDF workflow

    Description:
    When saving a copy as PDF, artboards must be chosen in the first step — before seeing any PDF settings. This is awkward and less flexible.

    Suggestion:
    • Allow artboard selection in the PDF settings step.
    • Add a preview (like in Print or artboards/screens in export) so users can easily see and pick the artboards they want.

    This would make saving PDFs faster, clearer, and more user-friendly.

  11. Option to have AI prompt me instead of me promptng AI

    A feature set we need is for Adobe to allow natural language descriptions for automating process steps and allow AI to suggest alternative methods or workflow where possible and allow training-on-the-fly for how-to steps based upon stylistic and other choices I make when prompted with options by AI iteratively.
    This would bring the power of AI to a “train me, don’t show me” type of assistance where AI suggests steps, tools, and options that I might use to create the effects or results I am envisioning. One great beauty in this is that I am learning how to do things…

  12. Make it possible to have NO active Artboard

    I often take screenshots of my work within Illustrator for Proofing purposes and more.. but when doing this I'm often stuck with the dark outline of the active artboard mixed in with multiple other images that do not have the dark artboard line. yes, often times I can simply hide artboards and get what I need, but other times what I'm looking for is only within my Trim view. So even when I go into Trim view and try to hide artboards to remove this dark outline, it does not. I recently learned that toggling to overprint fill turns the…

  13. Right side docked panels overlap document tabs & ruler

    When the dock is placed at the top, opening palettes (like Swatches) overlaps and blocks:
    • Document tabs (when many are open)
    • The double arrow used to access hidden tabs
    • The rightmost part of the ruler

    When the dock is placed at the bottom, palettes don’t block the document tabs, but they still cover part of the ruler.

    The palettes should dynamically adjust so they never block tabs, the tab overflow control, or the ruler—regardless of dock position.

  14. グループ化されたオブジェクトのキーオブジェクトへの整列とレイヤーを保ったグループ化

    1.説明
    背景が透明の画像を配置して他のオブジェクトもレイアウト進めて、それらをいくつか並べたデザインの時に、画像をマスクしていないけど、例えば四角の枠線で揃えたい時に整列が出来ない。

    そもそも揃えたければ、揃えられるように制作するべきなのでしょうが、中心が揃っていないのでうまく整列が出来ないのでマスクするなどしてという作業の代わりに、四角を選択範囲に保存しておき、それをキーオブジェクトにして揃えるとか何かうまく出来ないでしょうか。

    さらに、「レイヤーを保ったままグループ化」は出来ないでしょうか。整列の際にグループ化したいけどレイヤーの都合でグループ化したくない時はどうすればいいでしょうか。

    そもそも「マスクのオフセット機能」なるものがあれば、「マスクをした後に+3mmとかのオフセットを入れると塗り足し拡張出来る」という感じであれば、また別のケースで整列の問題が簡便になり、前述の機能を使わなくなるとも思います。

    2.メリット
    整列が便利になる。
    マスクがフレキシブルになる。

  15. Dimension Tool option that creates appropriate size lines, arrows, text, based on the art measured

    I work within a wide range of sizes, from very small to very large. 9 times out of 10 I'll go to use the dimension tool and find that the lines, arrows, text, etc. are far too large or small. I'll then go through the tedious process of deleting the dimensions, taking a wild guess that the new input sizes will do the trick, and try again. I like all the detailed controls and don't wish for them to go away, but I'd love the option for a more intuitive sizing result based upon whatever I'm measuring. for example, if…

  16. Custom Keyboard Shortcuts dialog should highlight changes from defaults

    This is such a little thing, but I would love to scroll through my list of keyboard shortcuts and see an indication next to ones I've changed to custom, that are different from the default.

  17. 29.7.1 macOS - PDF Export- Critical Parser failure: Unknown character in content stream

    In the macOS version of Adobe Illustrator 29.7.1, there is indeed a critical bug. When exporting files containing a large amount of text that has been converted to outlines, the resulting PDF file becomes corrupted.

    To verify the issue, please follow the steps below using the attached file:
    1. Launch Adobe Illustrator on macOS (I use Sequoia 15.6)
    2. Open the attached .ai file
    3. Export the file as a PDF using the “High Quality Print” preset

    Result: The exported PDF will appear corrupted, just like the attached example. Furthermore, when attempting to open the PDF in Acrobat Pro, the…

  18. Persistant "Try Now" and "Learn More" toast/nags should time out

    These grey feature nag alerts now appear for various features with calls-to-action like "Try Now" and "Learn More" eg. rearrange artboards, pasting to multiple artboards, ungrouping multiple/nested groups

    Unexpected behaviour: These alerts only close when the user clicks the little X on the right.

    Preferred behaviour:
    – These alerts should close after a certain time (say 10 seconds) or after a number of interactions on the artboard (say 10 clicks)
    – There should be an option to disable these alerts

    Reason: Some users don't want ANY interruptions or distractions while working.

    While I understand the benefit/opportunity to coach/educate about new…

  19. Confusing migration confirmation dialogue box

    Please fix the confusing migration confirmation dialogue box (popup), which is is needlessly unclear and needs revision. It asks a yes-or-no type question and provides a very clear negative option for a response. However, it provides two options for a positive response (I think), but which are bewildering. Each button just shows a version identifier: 29.7.2, 29.7.1, etc. Is this the new version and the version I was using last? Is this two versions where settings were detected? What version am I using when I see this? (Hmmm. I don't know. I can't check without answering first.) What happens when…
