Création d'un simple trait à partir d'une typographie ou d'un logo en double trait pour en faire une gravure
Création d'un simple trait à partir d'une typographie ou d'un logo en double trait pour en faire une gravure sur CNC,
Idée : à partir d'une typographie classique : vectorisation de la police - passer en mode contour - déterminer la moitié entre 2 points - création d'une ligne centrale pour avoir un mono trait. Cela pourrait s'appliquer à un logo même avec un empattement variable2 votes -
Groups Created from Outlined Text Should Inherit Text Object Names
When converting a text object to outlines, the resulting group is automatically given the default group name, which I find inappropriate. It would be better if the group inherited the original text object’s name.
In cases where the user has not assigned a custom name to the text object, and Illustrator displays the actual text content as the object’s name in the UI, that same text content should also be used as the name of the new group after outlining.

Make hidden objects to be excluded from Text Wrap
Text wrap: invisible objects cause text wrapping.
It's all in the title. Personally, I can't figure out if this is intended. If so, is it possible to add a flag to remove the effect of hidden objects on text?2 votes -
Center Align Area Type
The area type justification settings aren't working. If there is a text box with more than one line of text, it will not justify properly. There are no extra settings for the text boxes - ie. padding, and I tried making new area type text boxes as well.

Type > Text wrap > Make / Release / options
I constantly expect Text Wrap to be in the Type menu instead of the Object menu. Can it show up there?
You don't have to move it from the Object menu, I'm fine with there being two ways to get to it.

Korean text can't wrap cleanly at syllable boundaries
In InDesign, Korean text can wrap cleanly at syllable boundaries, but in Illustrator and Photoshop it still can’t. We’re simply asking for the same “syllable‑by‑syllable” line‑break option that InDesign already has. Who on earth wants to type Korean like “인‑디‑자‑인‑처‑럼,” with every syllable forced onto its own line? We just need consistent letter‑spacing and neat line breaks.
Korean users have been requesting this for more than ten years. Adobe, please—could you finally make it happen?

Keyboard shortcut to cycle through 'Change Case' states
Allow users to assign a keyboard shortcut to cycle through 'Change Case' settings. This was available on previous versions of Ai, and is a basic functionality that seems to have been removed for absolutely no reason.

Adobe fonts searching on top of the font list > easier entry
Adobe fonts browsing on top of the font list. Instead of scrolling down the (large) loaded fonts list, I would suggest searching Adobe fonts on top of the font list or a dedicated search entry.

Type Automation/Modulation Tool
A automation/modulation tool allows type to be edited based off different parameters. (ex. typewriter function that allows more ink bleed onto random letters on a body of type). Similar to music production automation/modulation in that there would be values from 0-100 and then those settings could have a parameters (ex. setting the bounds of the automation from value of 80-100 and then having the ability to randomize that automation between those values). The highlighted text that needs automation/modulation would have a separate window with a linear grid to adjust each individual character and a drop down menu of what parameter…

An ability to have an exact width without tracking
The width should be based on the actual vectors and not the letters with Tracking (Kerning). If I add 100 tracking to the text, it is wider then the actual vectors and that creates issues with making sure the letters will fit on a wall that they would be attached to.

Request: Add Custom Font Sizes to Text Size Dropdown in Illustrator
It would be great if Adobe Illustrator allowed users to save custom font sizes (such as 150pt, 200pt, etc.) to the default text size dropdown in the Character panel. Currently, while you can manually enter large font sizes, they don't appear in the dropdown for future use. Allowing custom sizes to be added to the dropdown would save time, improve workflow consistency, and make working with large text sizes more efficient. Thank you for considering this feature!

Predictive text and optional ai copy adapted to text box design sizes
I would like to have predictive text, while I write it can complete the word like it happens in my phone.
Also once you have my copy done, have a menu to have other copy options, translations and changes of copy adapted to cover more or less space in my design.2 votes -
Alt/Option-click on the "New style" icon to open a text style definition dialog directly
It would be a giant leap forward for Illustrator to match InDesign's UX for paragraph and character styles management.
Allow us to Alt/Option-click on the "New style" icon to open the style definition dialog directly, avoiding nonsense names like "Paragraph Style 1."
The same approach is used for Graphic Styles, so it should be allowed for text styles as well.

Add Convert to Point / Area Type commands in context menu for text
When I right-click on text, I would like there to be an option to switch between area/point text, instead of going to the type menu.

Allow the bullet behavior to be turned ON or OFF
I would very much like to have the option to turn the Bullet behavior ON or OFF. - Part of why I use Illustrator as much as I do is that I like to have complete control of my design. I use InDesign in a very limited, specific way, even with book layout, i.e. TOC & pagination. - For example, I'm trying to make headers for a short PDF and I can't add numbers before my headers without loosing control of the styling. They've been gobbled up by the bullet functionality and I can't even change the color. I can't…

Make Check Spelling work in Finnish
I have searched for answers in community and tried all the suggestions.
At least English, Spanish and Swedish spell checking is working.I have changed the language to Finnish in preferences hyphenation settings, character styles, paragraph styles and in the written text box. Spell check finds no words and automated check also does nothing.

Opentype + Glyphs UI Menu Preview
While the UI for Opentype is appreciably better than Indesign, there are still a few hinderances in the UI that make it painfully difficult to use and limits functionality. This could solved in one (hopefully easy) solution: PREVIEW TYPOGRAPHIC FEATURES
THE PROBLEM:
Currently, you have to click the stylistic set to open a dropdown menu, once you’ve clicked a style, the dropdown disappears. To see another style you need to open the dropdown menu again and deselect the previous style you just selected. Open the dropdown menu again, and then select the next style.THE SOLUTION:
