1. Batch File Processing to PDF (Non-Illustrator Default Like PDF-x4)

   In Photoshop, you have the option to File > Scripts > Image Processor — from there, you can then take a PSD File and batch through a folder of files and change them to a JPEG, PSD, or TIFF while simultaneously running an action through them.

   I propose that we introduce something like photoshops Image Processor where in illustrator you can select File > Scripts > File Processor where you have the option to change an entire folder of AI files into PDF's, SVG's, or EPS's.

   Once you click "Run" (like you would in photoshop) it would batch through an entire folder of AI files and convert them into the specified file format.

2. Auto-fill file name in search bar when re-linking / replacing missing links

   The process of replacing missing links could be less tedious if Illustrator would auto-fill the name of the file in the search bar of the file browser. For me, it is often easier to perform a search for the file name rather than navigating through multiple depths of folders. An option to auto-fill the file name rather than manually typing it would make this regular task much smoother.

   I regularly collaborate with other designers and am constantly re-linking files when someone else has created or edited the design file or when projects are re-organized. So the task of replacing missing links really adds up.

4. Illustrator CC 2019 (oct) NOT as default program for file extension .doc

   Just upgraded to Creative Cloud 4.7.0.400, from 24.09.2018 on Windows 8.

   Weirdly my E-Mail client suddenly opens .doc-files in Illustrator CC. I checked Windows 8's default program setting for file extension .doc ... it's still set to "Word". The E-Mail client (Opera Mail) is pretty slim and itself has no way of setting file extension behaviours - it's depending on the systems settings.

   The Bridge's file extension dialog in Bridge settings does not list .DOC files, so it's not set to illustrator there either.

   However if i go into windows file extension settings again, highlight .doc and click "edit program" to take a closer look, THERE are TWO entries in "recommended program" to open .doc files with... Word and Illustrator CC. How come?

   My e-mail client seems to take whatever first program is set as "recommended program" to open doc-files with.

   This is bad, since i have no way of removing this setting in windows settings.
   How come creative cloud thinks it would be a good choice to open .DOC files with?

   Thanks and best regards,
   Stephan

5. Auto opening a layered illustrator file in photoshop as layered smart objects.

   I create my original illustration files in vector format and in layers in Adobe Illustrator. I then copy each layer to its own artboard and save off an Ai file with the multiple layers converted to artboards, I then manually place these artboards as individual linked smart layers in Photoshop to ensure a non-destructive and combined Vector/Bitmap workflow/solution between Ai and PS.

   This is a LOT of manual work each time, Photoshop SHOULD be able to open a simple and layered Illustrator file automatically like this in this non-destructive manner.

   Saving off as a layered PSD file from Ai rasterises as does the new cut and paste layers between Ill/photoshop feature.

   Even a pre-made and supplied script for each piece of software would help.

   The workflow between Ill and Ae with layers is great and works, the workflow between Ai and PS is an unnecessary mess by comparison while working via artboards instead of layers.

6. Add "Crop Image Data to Frames" option to PDF Export (after first adding PDF Export).

   InDesign can crop image data to frames, which can significantly shrink PDF files. Why is this long existing InDesign feature missing from Illustrator? Please add it. There is no excuse.

7. Set all colour palette swatches to Global as default

   Could we have all default swatches and custom colour swatches we select set as 'Global' when are working in a document? Or at least be able to select multiple swatches all at once and make Global? Why is the default 'non-Global' when colours are likely to be used regularly across multiple working files?

8. Multiple recover file management

   AI feature that allows to save multiple recover files separately.
   (The user decides how many copies of recovery to have, could be a single one or many).
   for example, in case I want three copies of recovery that saves separately every X minutes.
   recover1 saves every 30 minutes
   recover2 saves every 10 minutes
   recover3 saves every 2 minutes
   This would help to recover previous versions of the same file.

   Additonally an option to save backups:
   Save a copy every X minutes.
   For example: Save a copy every 60 minutes.
   This is not a recovery file, but a copy that is saved for the file, it does not changes after saved.

   Also, AI should make recover files more accessible, it is hard to find the folder that contains it.
   Allow the user to chose the path of the recovery folder. (Where the recover files are stored).
   (Same thing for backups)

   This would reduce the chances of a major bug crash that might keep the recovery file crashing. (If this happens the user would have additional previous versions of the file to chose).

9. Allow to choose file version when saving AIT templates

   One of our designers still use old version of AI.
   We need to share newly created templates (.ait) with her.
   But AI doesn't give options when saving templates!
   So I'm forced to save to .ai first, choose CS6 version and then change extension by hand.

   Why can't I see same options for templates?

10. Merge swatches with right-click

    In InDesign you can right-click in the swatches panel and select 'Merge Swatches' (among many other things).

    In Illustrator there is no right-click menu at all, you have to click the fly-out.

    Adding the right-click menu (or even the ability add a keyboard shortcut to things in the fly-out) would be helpful as we get a lot of files with duplicate colors or need to convert odd mixes/incorrect names to true Pantones so our rips will recognize them. We do a lot of merging.

    Thank you!

11. Set default artboard name as file name

    Is it possible to have a setting in preferences to set the default artboard name as the file name?

    Generally I name all my artboards the "file nameCMYK" or "FilenamePantone" for exporting later and it's just a tedious extra step to have to go in and name EVERY artboard what I've already named the file instead of just tacking on a delineation.

12. ADD "Relink to Folder..." to the Links panel as in InDesign

    We have long kept an asset folder named The__PIT that has 1 copy of every file that has ever made it through Production so that if we bring up an InDesign IDML or INDD from any time in our history, ALL links are immediately restored using "Relink to Folder...". We need this same functionality with Illustrator. I understand that InDesign is a data based software and Illustrator is not. I also see that Illustrator does retain the file name though (which, as is noted in many other similar requests, does nothing as far as selecting a match within a CC Library)... Anyhow, isn't this enough info already to incorporate a one at a time "Relink to folder..." task? Definitely faster than relinking one at a time through a chooser. And still could be done all at once with a delimited internal array of multiple selected file names.

    ThePIT has been one of my favorite additions to our workflow. It keeps duplication to a minimum (asset either filed or in ThePIT), repopulates assets whether the indd is from 2009 or 2020, and it allows us to archive all our indd's as idml's which are like 20x smaller & we never have to worry about relinking thanks to "Relink to Folder..." & The__PIT!

    Illustrator layouts are becoming more popular at our agency and to have this functionality added to Illustrator would greatly improve efficiency, get all team members to adopt the same workflow, and free up tons of space compared to dev that is package based.

    Our agency isn't large enough and doesn't have enough free people time to merit a full Adobe DAM solution. We are small & nimble AND outputting 5x the content we were capable of 5 years ago with the same number of staff, thanks in part to The_PIT and some other scripts and procedures I've implemented.

    My agency closely guards the workflow methods I've enacted as they give us a clear advantage over other agencies. Our clients say as much.

    Diminishing the gap in cross functionality between Adobe applications is crucial. The same features will never equate to the same usage. The Adobe apps are differentiated as much by personal preference, if not more, than anything else. It's only when a project in an app can't do something that's possible in another & moving the elements to the other app doesn't help either that the software shows its weakness. You can't copy and paste or drag and drop a placed graphic with a broken link from Illustrator to InDesign and retain a link that could be resolved by "Relink to Folder..." You can't do "Relink to Folder..." in Illustrator. There's no efficient resolution.

    As to why I wouldn't just select "Relink..." and browse The__PIT...
    That folder has thousands of files in it, it takes a seriously long time for the files to display in Finder. And sometimes, either by fault of OSX or Adobe's browse, the files don't display at all. You get the same result in InDesign if you try "Relink..." BUT with "Relink to Folder..." it's nearly instant. Even a document with more than 100 images. I guess it's the difference between Browse and relink compared to the data action of "GET in this folder, the file named this" which happens with "Relink to Folder..."

    Please respond with comments.

13. 3D from Illustrator to CC library via obj format (to after effects)

    Hey there. Don't know if anyone here also follows After Effects news, but they just added something pretty cool :

    Support for OBJ import from Libraries
    Now import OBJ 3D model files from your Libraries into your compositions
    In addition to GLB and GLTF, the capability to add 3D model files from your Libraries into your composition is now extended to OBJ 3D model file format. You can add OBJ 3D models to your Creative Cloud Libraries from Adobe Stock, your local system, or your After Effects projects.
    Learn more about importing 3D models from Creative Cloud Libraries to your project.

    That makes me ask if we'd have a chance to get a "+ add 3D object" to the + button in the CC libs panel.

    If CC libs can handle 3D models AND another software (here, Ae) uses them, then it would be the right time !

14. Make the 'Create PDF Compatible File' tickbox permanent or lockable.

    Make the 'Create PDF Compatible File' tickbox permanent or lockable.

    Without this being ticked, I can't see any thumbnails of my illustrator files, which is completely disruptive to work flow. I'd like to request that users be able to lock this tick box to ticked status.

    Currently, it's 'sticky': whatever you did last time sticks. Unless you open a doc that was saved without it checked.

    Working in a studio, I handle all kinds of files made by all kinds of people, and time is of a premium.

    'Sticky' but with a fin-print-style 'but' that requires you to be vigilant every single time you save is useless, in my experience.

    At least provide a warning that the user's preferred way to save has been changed by them having opened a file that runs counter to their preference and has un-ticked their preferred setting.

16. Lock, hide or deactivate artboards

    An option to lock, hide or deactivate one or several artboards would improve working with multiple versions of graphics - especially when you you need to return to an earlier ittaration.

    When saving to AI-file you have to erase the artbord (with the graphics floating in space) to get rid of the page.

17. Select same, with multiple selectable attributes and customisations

    When using the Select Same feature we need a lot more options, like all objects with the same transparency effect AND opacity AND tint AND line weight etc, that can be selected from a list of attributes. Same sort of list as the options list for the Eyedropper Tool (see screenshot).

    It should be split into sections that allow vectors graphics selections as above, but also things like selecting all linked items that are the same file AND the same size AND rotation AND opacity.

    Selecting all text in a certain colour, font, size, style so they can be updated en masse would help too (overlapping with another suggestion here).

    You can then tick as many as you like before performing the select using your chosen filters. A preview mode would be useful too, so you can see what you're picking up.

    Once set, selected filters should be saveable and accessable from a scrollable list alongside the filter window for instant selection without opening a save / load screen.

    Finally, each select same filter window should have an option to add / subtract from the current selection, so selctions can be stacked / refined.

    This would be a huge time-saver when updating many files with similar changes whether to update embedded elements, for corporate image updates or technical changes like minimum line thickness.

18. Remember scaling per file in Save for web

    I design for printing and use 'Save for web and devices' to have crisp images.
    E.g. I can have document 300x900mm, and then I export it as 600x1800px and have my snapped sharp lines to stay sharp.
    But 'SfWaD' always immediately renders image at '100%' (which is not 100% at all at Windows — it's an another problem to be discussed), and I get 850x2551.
    When my dimensions are bigger, AI sometimes can't even render an image and I get error message and pink fill in preview area.
    I try to draw ten times smaller whenever is possible to avoid this, but sometimes it's not convenient.

    'Export for screens' doesn't provide direct custom scaling, only integers.

    Proposed solution is too remember scaling in 'SfWaD'. In example given it could stick to the 70,6% after pressing 'Done' button.
    But it will still require AI to render at 100% anyway, so the second better way is to skip immediate rendering and letting user to set values first (you can set an option for it).

    I design for printing and use 'Save for web and devices' to have crisp images.

19. Display copies of links' duplicates as instances, like in InDesign

    It would be nice if Illustrator's link panel was more link InDesign's in that it collapsed instances of the same linked file into an accordion. The user can then update multiple instances of a file to the same new link or link them individually to separate new links.

20. Adobe Libraries — Point/Direct to the ACTUAL original file to edit

    The more I use libraries, the more I like it! However, instead of creating a "virtual" library of duplicated files, maybe store/use the ACTUAL original file so as to reduce loads of duplicated files, confusion as to the "latest" version(s) created and a crazy file naming system.

    Right now this is what it does:
    Actual Original File: SSRLogoRGB.ai
    Clicking on "Edit Original" in any Adobe program: SSRLogoRGB_cf14017d-6564-4298-9f8f-d800bd2b4a91.ai
