PNG options, add resolution 96dpi
I believe we first had the resolutions 72, 150 and 300 in the PNG options dialog. Now I see 4, 18 and 36 have been added. A frequently used resolution that is missing is 96dpi. Please add.

When exporting the saving dialogue doesn't take you to the source location
When exporting, the saving dialogue doesn't take you to the source location which used to be the case. It takes you to Downloads instead which is not convenient for file organization.

Export to Screens
Please change the name Export to Screens. It seems like saving low Res files in RGB just for screens. Also need presets that can be used next time.

For all Adobe apps, make a Save icon at the top.
Make a Save icon at the top so that we could save our work often and quickly with a mouse click instead of interrupting the work flow to do a File Save or even Ctrl - S.

Separate rasterization of text and non-text features in imported pdf
Hello,
would it be possible to implement a pdf import feature where text is maintained as vector text, but the other compartments are rasterized to make large files generated from Analysis software (e.g. heatmap) better to handle.
Thank you

Export large artboards to PNG using high (300 dpi) resolution
Currently, files with large artboards (larger than 6535 px x 4730 px) can not be exported as a PNG with high resolution. The best is a medium resolution. My current project series requires a specific large artboard size (9075 px wide x 6201 px high exactly) and I would like to be able to export and then print them in high resolution to give my customers the best possible printed product. Illustrator does not currently support this, unfortunately.

Image export both type and art optimized
For exporting web banners, my routine is to export one image art optimized and one image type optimized, aftwerwards stack them in Photoshop and unmask the type optimized version where text is visible.
I would appreciate an option of "art and type" that automatically interprets the type as type and the images as images so that I can skip the whole process after the export.

Save the .ai file and only after finishing the .pdf
As done in CC 2019, I can save the .ai and only after finish it I can save a .pdf
Now with AI 24.2.2 I save the .ai and immediatly the .pdf but the .ai file is not saved. So the .ai and .pdf are not the same. This can cause a lot of problem becasue is I start work to AI file I'm not in last version and if I start on .pdf in low resolution I lose some elements, and reduce the quality to raster.
Please, do as CC 2019 that Illustrator block user before .pdf save.

Import AI smart objects as vectors
If you have a smart object that is a vector (say an .ai file) for use in Photoshop, if you later export the PSD file back to AI, all the smart objects get rasterized including vector smart objects. It would be better if they are converted back to vector (except maybe in situations where they have effects or masks).

Larger preview images in .ai files
When an .ai file is saved, an image of all the active artboards is saved in the file. The OS (Mac or PC) uses this to provide a PREVIEW of the contents of the .ai file.
(a) This preview is terribly small, and displays as a small thumbnail instead of a useful image of the file contents. It appears to be a tiny bitmap, but it's so small it doesn't do much good at revealing what's in the file.
(b) The preview also displays everything visible on the pasteboard, including graphics that is not on any artboard. Since the preview…

Export file format order
Is there a way to change the order of formats in the dropdown? It would be great to have the default choice be the format I use 99% of the time?

The ability to open Fireworks PNGs as editable PNGs with layers retained in Illustrator
We have thousands of Fireworks PNGs that are now useless having updated to Mac Catalina OS and finding fireworks no longer works. We really need to be able to open them in Illustrator as editable pngs with the layers still retained. I'm aware this is possible in Photoshop, but that's not suitable for our vector-based graphics. Thank you.

Illustrator not responding can not save files, crashes on two different computers
Since illustrator 2020 was updated I can not work on it. It's slow, crashes and can not save files. I urgently need this fixed. I range adobe who said it was due to my lap top being only 8 gb of ram and they re set my settings, it became worse. I then tried it on a computer with 16gb of ram and same issue. No one can tell me the problem. I need to complete an important project.

save template permissions error Mac.
In 24.0 it seems that there is a file permissions bug that prevents templates being saved into the default Templates folder. App sandboxing and file permissions may not have been defined in the Desktop Mac app.
- Save As Template...
- Name it Save

Just fix the grammer
The "document will be closed after the save is complete" popup has a button that says "close anyways." That's hillbilly, not English.

.DXF compound shape support
Illustrator doesn't seem to support exporting compound shapes in a .DXF file. Corel does so it must be possible. This lack of support means that you cannot have text in a DXF file.
