Copy and paste formatting to text
Please add a very important abbreviation
It is paste formatting
(And copy the same text)
I suggest its shortcut is ctrl + shift + V
and
ctrl + shift + C copy shortcut
As in MS Word
It's an important shortcut and makes it much easier at work. Please let me know when it's activated4 votes -

Filtering font selection by source / vendor
(This is a feature request for Ai, Ps, Id etc. as well)
Filtering from source such as Fontbook, Monotype, Adobe Fonts, Google Fonts etc.
I've noticed its common to only be allowed to use fonts from specific sources with some clients. It's been a headache to have to go into another app and cross reference which fonts are from what source. For example, a client I'm contracted full time under I can only use Monotype due to their commercial subscription status.
Or even to be able to create our own folders / font collections to view those only.

Make the type on a path tool smarter
I would like an option to make a text follow a path in a more smooth way. For example, look at the PSG logo where you see how the A and R follow the circular shape, without distorting the shape of the letter.

attributi testo
Sarebbe bello avere aggiunta la funzione "copia attributi" / "incolla attributi" nel testo così come negli oggetti, quindi uno shortcut da tastiera per, ad esempio, attribuire un font o aggiungere un grassetto o corsivo a singole parole all'interno di un testo (FreeHand lo faceva ed era comodissimo)

Choose Which Paragraph Style is Based on Another Paragraph Style
When creating a new paragraph style, it would be very helpful to choose which other style it's based on. Currently, the only option is the default paragraph style. This is very nice when you have one base style, and you can build on it with other styles.

package font-family instead of font
Sometimes I need to adjust the font style in font family like Helvectica Neue Light, Condensed, Regular and so on, However now the illustrator only makes the package the font which have been used. That means when I get the package, I only can have one font in the font family only.

Please make TABS easier to use.
Please make TABS easier to use. It's so fiddly trying to get the bottom arrow to pull across for indented bullet list alignment.

日本語での作業時にフォントの選択が困難を極めます。
日本語版を使用しているとフォントの数が極端に多くなります。モリサワ、フォントワークスなどがサブスクリプションで多数の書体が使えるようになっており、そのうえフォントの名前が頭にA-OTFなどのベンダーのつけた記号によって、記憶しているフォント名順にならず、さらに欧文フォントが多数インストールされており、とどめにAdobeTypeが加わり、フォントの並び順がめちゃくちゃでかつスクロールも以上に長く、使いたいフォントにすぐたどり着けません。最近使用したフォントをフォントメニューの頭に並ぶ設定にすると、こんどは実際に書類のフォントを変えながら探すときに、毎回フォントメニューの頭に戻ってしまい、たとえば欧文でAの名前から順に探すために毎回ながいスクロールをするハメになります。また、ラップトップの小さい画面で選べるようにポップアップしたフォントメニューの天地幅が狭く、大型モニタで作業する多くのユーザーは少しの範囲しかないポップアップで延々スクロールしなければなりません。提案は3点。 1|フォントのポップアップの天地幅を大きなモニタで長くして欲しい。 2|フォントメニューのフォント名の並び順を任意に変えられるようにして欲しい。 3|微妙に違うフォントが増えたので、フォント名の右側だけではなく、固定ウインドウにもっと大きなサンプルを表示して欲しい。以上です。英語版以外の特に日本語版のフォント選択の不便さは誰もが困っているはずです。非能率このうえない状態をユーザにいつまで強いるのでしょうか。改善を強く望みます。

Type on a Path Options
Type on a Path needs significant improvements.
• The Preview button should be sticky and the default position should be on.
• There need to be more alignment options including Cap Height and x Height.
• The options should be a panel not a dialogue.
• The options should be included in a style, perhaps by adding InDesign like object styles.
• The margins added when a path is converted to a type path should always start out at the ends of the path, not some arbitrary points along the path.4 votes -

Turn Off Typographers Quotes - Always Off & Stay Off - Forever Off
Hello I use Illustrator for about 85% of my work.
Primarily I'm doing UI Design and Planning Documents - this work is 100% online there is no print work.Typographers Quotes are a terrible thing for this workflow. The quotes are always messed up, it's always a ton of clicking to get rid of them and you have to do it a million times over every time you make a new document.
Also Typographers quotes means you can't rough out ideas around code in Illustrator because it a copy/paste mess.
The request is to have a setting as part of…

Find and replace text across all open files, a timesaving function that's been part of InDesign for a long time.

"EmojiOne Color" font in AI CC 2019
"EmojiOne Color" is a "color-only" font in AI CC 2019. Although it has "fallback" B&W characters that work fine in earlier versions of Illustrator the font CANNOT be change to B&W in AI CC 2019. This is a HUGE flaw in the font and should be made to work in either color or black and white mode.

Changing color of selected letters
It is very difficult to change the color of a selected letters in a text if you can not see the color as it is because it is inverted when they are selected. So you are changing the color but you don't know the real appearence, , for that you have to deselect the text each time. Can this be fixed for a future version? thank you

Fix Find & Replace to keep formating of font being changed
Find & Replace has never worked correctly and still doesnt. If I do a find and replace Illustrator will change the formatting of the text being replaced to the formatting nearest to it, it doesnt keep the formatting of the characters being changed if they are different than the characters either side of it within the same text block.

Migrate Font Favorites Between Programs
I have quite a few font favorites, sometimes ones that rotate in or out of the Favorites list in InDesign or other programs, dependent on the projects I'm working on at that given time. I'd like to be able to migrate the font favorites between the three main programs I use: InDesign, Illustrator, and Photoshop without needing to add/remove the fonts in each program individually.

Spell Check Ignore Icon Fonts
Spell check should recognize icon fonts and stop recommending corrections to them. In a document with many icons, I don't want to have to add every icon into the dictionary or have to know that if I capitalize that word it would actually break the icon it creates.
