1. Add Units to Move Function

   It would be great if when using the MOVE feature we could switch between UNIT types (Inches, Pixels, Points, etc...). For example, often we want the file in inches but to move in points.

2. Add 'resource size' to the 'prefix' option in 'export multiple formats'

   This prefix is very useful when exporting "multiple resources" and can improve work efficiency.
   In addition, it is recommended that the current prefix naming method be separated from the file name using "prefix -" or "prefix _".

3. saveascopy command in Illusrator script

   Please, pretty pleas with sugar on top add SaveAsCopy function to illustrator script. All i need to be happy is to bind a script that allows me to save a copy of specific AI art board(s) as PDF with presets. it is impossible to save copy of document without closing current AI file.
   I work in print and that is the thing illustrator lack for me, one script command... saveCopyAs.
   Why does it matters? because i have tons of print layouts with ton of PDF's to link on aforementioned plates, and i need to sometime go for 3 different export as pdf to get to last print layout... i save a lot of PDFs. Not to even mention small size pdf's that i need to send to clients. There are days that i make the same PDF 7 times before i end with client, and then i do like 2-3 more to have flexo print layout. And after that i have 8 more projects to do. Don't even get mi started on moving something 2mm left and going once after 9 projects and 9 layouts...
   So when i have the change done, I want to be able hit saveAsCopy keybind script, then illustrator will nicely ask me if i want to update linked file on layout, i say yes, hit another saveascopy and he will ask me if i want to make an update on final layout for anilox roller, I say yes, hit save as copy, and I AM DONE. Now 9 more.
   All that this will give mi is Save of time from saving all this files manually by clicking file->Save as Copy. And that is all i really want, the save in time on repeatable tedious action

4. file>export>export as... still lists Flash as an option

   How long ago was Flash rebranded to Animate? Five years now?

   The "Flash (SWF)" option in the Export As... dialogue should be "Animate (SWF)".

5. Labels on cylinders scaling fails

   When Labels on cylinders are scaled beyond a certain size (relative to object size?), their distortion is wrong

   See attached file and video. The original size of that label is smaller, I have scaled it on the object and it just gets dirtorted at the far edges as soon as it gets too large.

6. Selecting layer selects artboard

   I have been given an icons file that has 100+ icons, each on a separate artboards.

   I can search (finally) for the item in Layers and select it, but it is not selecting or locating the artboard at the same time.

   An alternative to this would be to have a search function on artboards.

7. Return / make optional ability to indicate subfolders in artboard name / path

   In previous versions it was possible to make name of artboard as "folder/subfolder/artboardname" and while export it would reproduce whole hierarchy of subfolders.
   It was super nice for organizing assets.
   Now it saves file in base directory and replaces "/" with "-".
   Maybe we can put this option to settings so that people may continue to use it.

8. Identify Newly Installed Fonts in Adobe Illustrator

   Problem:

   Managing large font collections in Adobe Illustrator can be challenging, especially when installing new fonts. With hundreds or even thousands of fonts, identifying recently added ones becomes a tedious task, often requiring manual scrolling and searching through the entire font menu.

   Proposed Solution:

   Implement a feature in Illustrator that allows users to easily identify newly installed fonts. Here are two potential options:

   Filter by Install Date: Add a sorting option within the font menu that displays fonts by their installation date. This would allow users to quickly see the most recently added fonts at the top of the list.

   "New Fonts" Badge: Introduce a temporary visual indicator (badge) next to newly installed fonts within the font menu. This badge would disappear after a designated period (e.g., one week) or upon user interaction (e.g., clicking the font).

   Benefits:

   Improved workflow efficiency by saving time spent searching for new fonts.
   Enhanced organization and management of large font libraries.
   Streamlined font discovery for design projects.
   Additional Considerations:

   The implementation should be lightweight and not impact application performance.
   Users should have the option to disable the badge or sorting by install date if preferred.

   Thank you for considering this feature request. We believe it would be a valuable addition to Adobe Illustrator and significantly improve the user experience for designers working with extensive font collections.

9. Add a way to resize an exported image with Export As method to a specific size, like Save for Web can

   In the old "Save for Web" function (please keep it!) it was possible to resize "on the fly" the destination image (EG my file is 8000 px but I can save an exported version of 800 without opening and resizing afterwards)
   In the "Export as.." function none of this is possible.

11. Show slices names

    I'm looking for a simple but very useful option for slices:
    "Show slice name"

    Currently in setting of Illustrator there are only option:
    "Show slice numbers", - file attached.
    But it's doesn't give me anything actually.
    I've created names for each slice and I need to check these names visually, without need to select each slice and goto it slice settings..

12. set pdf content active as helpers/rules when imported

    As it's convenient to keep links to reference file, it's sometimes mandatory to attach/align new shape to points/path of the imported shape.
    but by default the pdf content is not "live". it would be valuable to have this content live as it's possible for Glyphs or symbols...
    Many Thanks

13. Turn off "Could not complete the requested operation. The requested transformation would make some objects fall completely off the drawing"

    I routinely work with large art files, and while I would love the drawing area to be unlimited, it seems like that's never going to happen.

    In the meantime, please add an option to turn off the warning message; "Could not complete the requested operation. The requested transformation would make some objects fall completely off the drawing area". I know when I use the transform tool and I've previously moved an object a great distance across the drawing area that I can't repeat that operation. I don't need to be reminded of that constantly. The behavior of this dialog box is borderline a bug.

    This also occurs when scaling. Why does the message pop up BEFORE you actually try to execute the command? For example, if I scaled something by 4800% and while that object is selected, use the scale tool again, the message pops up. This is incredibly annoying. Either make it possible to disable the message, or make the message occur when you actually try to do the thing it's warning you about, not as soon as you click on the tool.

14. 'Reveal in finder' right-click images

    Can basic image functions please get added to right-click menus. Both when right-clicking images, and when right-clicking images in the Links panel...

    • Re-link image
    • Update link
    • Link File Info...
    • Embed/Unembed image
    • Reveal in Finder
    • Reveal in Bridge
    • Edit in Photoshop

    I also made a single “Full Image & Link Overhaul” request that pulled all the smaller image issues together, but it seems to have been deleted. Can an admin explain why?

15. Freezing

    The image does not change. I go to a new tab with a different file and the same image is showing.
    I go to use the Align tab and STILL showing the Layers tab. I have to completely quit illustrator. This has been happening since the update. This is costing me production time. I have to quit illustrator and reopen at least 10 times a day.

16. A feature to copy the element as any file format and be able to paste it on any other software we want.

    A feature to copy the elements in Illustrator as format, like if I create an icon I should be able to copy the icon as "SVG" or any other file format and be able to paste in any tool that I suite me. That way I don't have to keep exporting my Icons every time I create one. Figma already have that option. This is valuable for me because I work on multiple tools like Figma and Illustrator and I like to design my own Icons and I don't like Figma for designing my Icons I prefer Illustrator and exporting it every time is bit of a inconvenient to me.

    AdminEgor Chistyakov (Admin, Adobe Illustrator) responded

    According to the team, SVG copy/paste was disabled by default as many customers see performance issues on Windows 11 (due to clipboard recorder). It can get enabled back again in Preferences > Clipboard Handling > Include SVG Code.

17. Add Embroidery Digitizing Features

    Please add the ability to do embroidery digitizing within this program; including the ability to export in the most common embroidery file types. If not, a standalone program added to Creative Cloud would be greatly appreciated. This would be especially useful on Macs, because there aren't as many software programs that specialize in digitizing as there are on PC.

18. Combine all Thumbnail Preview Options

    There are multiple ways to remove thumbnail previews on the Layers, Appearance and Links palettes and these have to be set on every file.

    As a huge drag on screen redraw performance, these should be a single option / button accessible without going into the prefs panel.

    Perhaps with an opt-out tick box per palette to fine tune. For example: Users could have thumbs persist on the layers palette, while the others toggle on a button.

19. Adding overprint toggles in the Separations Preview window

    Currently, the overprint toggles are only in the "Attributes" panel but the overprint preview toggle is in the Separations Preview panel. Including overprint toggles in the Separations Preview panel allows the user to see the overprints in the file and toggle off/on any visible overprints prior to exporting/printing. This would save on workspace real estate by choosing to exclude the Attributes panel solely for overprint toggles.

20. Remove the "legacy" designation from Save For Web.

    Save For Web was marked as "legacy" when Export For Screens was added, with the implication SFW would be vanishing at some point. It's seven years later and SFW is still around, and still what I use 100% of the time over EFS and the terrible Export As... options.

    Save For Web is a great tool for someone creating art with Illustrator; it lets me quickly and easily adjust the file format and resolution of the generated image for whatever I may need, and uses most of the screen to show me exactly what I'll be getting.

    Export for Screens? It's terrible for my needs. One tiny little thumbnail for each artboard. Or each "asset". Which I guess are useful if you're making user interfaces? I don't do that, I use Illustrator for illustration.

    Export As...? It's even worse. Each file format has a terrible little dialogue box without much consistency between them, and next to no control over the final size - guessing at final pixel size by changing the DPI is utterly absurd to do. It used to be useful, years ago; it used to be as powerful as the dialogue Photoshop gives you when you try to import an AI file. Then the whole UI got rebuilt and that was thrown out in favor of a bunch of dialogues that do the barest minimum effort required. Now it's just a bunch of bad jokes.

    Save For Web is the only one of these options that's really useful to an artist, and you hide it away by saying it's "legacy". Obviously not something anyone should USE.

    Please, do what you have to do to make Save For Web something you don't want to mark as "legacy". Keep it around. Modernize it so you can drop in new file formats as the world decides they're useful. I really do not know what I'd do if you ever did finally follow through on the implicit threat of removing it; exporting stuff would be a huge pain **********.
