Save Color Profiles by Default
By default, the color profiles I assign to the file should be saved.
There have been several times I have assigned a color profile to my Illustrator file, saved it as a PDF, and the printed PDF were the wrong colors because Illustrator didn't include the assigned profile. I then had to reopen my file, manually tell Illustrator to include all color profiles when saving, and then reprint.
It is ridiculous that the file doesn't save assigned profiles by default.

Please add automated color bar, separation color information - Print PDF output
Hi! I am missing a choice in PDF save or export. In the print industry is needed to add colour information for the customer, what colours is the artwork made from - esp. when we use solid colours. Customers need this for the approval process so we have to add this colour-bar manually. In the PDF (composite PDF) window there are Marks and Bleed choices, but there is missing a choice to choose a colour information automatically generated from the document colours - separations. The colour information can be graphical (squares with separation names) or text based (separation name in…

We need Watermark Panel
I have suffered several times from clients who have steals my work and doesn’t pay the remaining 50% of the contract because it is a tedious job to make changes to a design and add, each time I need to export the artboard a watermark.
It would be great to have a panel or a checkbox to apply a watermark to the entire artboard and that way we defend ourselves against bad clients easier.
And if we can add our custom watermark, much better.

Asset Export: Name assets after the layer they're on
When adding objects to Asset Export, there should be an option to name the assets after the layer they're on. This would be particularly helpful when there are a large number of assets.

Fix Lines in Pattern designs when saved via Export for Screens.
When I export designs (via Export for screens) with patterns that have either been expanded or not I find that I get verticle and horizontal lines in my pattern. This is not present in the app, only on the resulting PDF/JPG/PNG exported file. I found this doesn't not happen when using the legacy Save for Web option. This is not an AA issue. Both are set to art optimized and the results are very different.

This option is essential at our workplace.Is there a reason why it was removed?
3 votesBoth DXF and DWG export options are there now in the 'Save as type' dropdown list in the Export As dialog, in recent versions of Illustrator.
Please comment if these are missing for you.

Streamline the Fresco To Illustrator Export Process
Like many I use Illustrator for its Vector properties in order to animate within After Effects, with the agility to scale up assets infinitely when clients change their minds about shots & movements.
iPads Adobe Draw, meant my assets could become so much more detailed. Which was great! While the push to desktop feature was glitchy for me at best it still mostly resulted with having a neat AI file version of the Draw one. That I could Import into AE with ease. Update with ease. etc.
It's also useful that I can bring in AI assets to PS as…

Export for Screens: Option to include file- and artboard-name automatically.
Ok the "Export for Screen" option is kind of nice, however it takes far too long to set everything up....
- The areas to type in are far too small.
- Automation is week a. where can define that all images will get the file name of the original *.AI file. b. why does it keep the old folder location? Set an option to export is where the original *.AI-file is located. c. Where are some presets? Wouldn't it be awesome to have some user-defined presets? It would be.
- The images are to small
- There are to many clicks, like when I…

Save as multiple files in AI format
Only me who wants to save multiple files, in AI-format, from one document full of many pages? As it is today one can only check "Use pages" and choose page numbers if format EPS, PDF and SVG is picked. I find AI better to import into After Effects than EPS. That's why I want to save multiple files in AI format. Haven't tried SVG though... does SVG work in After Effects?

Export screenshot of artboard to clipboard
A common part of my workflow is to take a screenshot of my work, which saves the screenshot to the clipboard, and then I paste it in an email or chat window for others to comment on. It's faster than exporting the document. However, it still takes a second to click and drag the screenshot area.
I would like a feature (with a keyboard shortcut) to make a low-res PNG of the artboard (about as big as the view on my screen, i.e a screenshot) and save it to the clipboard for easy sharing.

Set Default File/Place Folder Location
Right now, AI doesn't offer the ability to change what folder opens up when you File/Place. It always go to the last used. Could we have an option to change it to where the opened file is? (I think PS offers this already).

Enclose Meta to png saved for web
Please enable to add meta data to png saved for web out of AI. It is not a practible way to open AI in Photoshop and export there a png with meta data. If you create images, e.g. for a website this extra work cause additional steps and waste precious time!
I learnd that this was possible in older versions of AI, but since years this option is missing!3 votes -
SVG export: Universally-unique class names for internal CSS or option for prefix token.
AI's auto-generated class names are only file-unique. Collisions occur if different exported svgs are inlined in the same container (html) document. This prevents a primary way of using SVGs on the web.
Suggest an option (or default behavior) where class names are universally unique, or where a file-name or user chosen token is prepended to classnames.

Adobe Illustrator asks you to Save when no changes were made?
Why does Illustrator, for the past many years, ask you to Save when no changes were made? Makes me think I accidentally did something or forgot that I did something. If nothing was changed, Don't ask to Save....please.
