1. DWG Export - export Visible layers only

   Have an option to export only visible layers to DWG.
   When exporting a DWG have an option to export only visible layers,
   this would work in a similar way to export selected items only, but would save unlocking all layers you want to export and selecting the items.

2. Add Scale to SVG and PDF Export for Screens

   My biggest pain point in production for mobile right now is the inability to scale vector assets in Export for Screens. X-code prefers PDF assets be imported at 1x size. Android Studio prefers that SVG assets be smaller than 200x200 px. When I have large templates of icons or other assets that need to be sized differently for different purposes, it is crippling to have to resize these.

   For example, I have a set of icons that are used for a glyph font. These are all sized at a scale of 1000pt high. In order for me to export this same set as svgs for Android, each image and artboard must then be resized to below 200 px in order to do an export. Not fun when you have 300 to resize.

   Another example is achievement badges where I need to export 1x PDFs or small, medium, and large badges. Again, when you have hundreds of graphics, this is an immense amount of production work that could be saved if Scale were available for vector assets on Export for Screens.

   I know that vector assets are fully scalable and the size of the export should not matter. Unfortunately both iOS and Android dev environments have quirks that favor sized vector graphics.

4. Preview for file name with prefix and suffix when exporting for screens

   I have three requests about Prefix for filenames -
   1. Move it to a more prominent area where it's visible. Sometimes it's pre-populated because of previous exports, but since it's too small and not located anywhere around the artboards, it's very easy to miss it and end up with wrong file names.
   2. Make it bigger. Most prefixes have at least two words and the current input doesn't accommodate it. I have to manually scroll through the complete thing with the keyboard. Not very useful.
   Requested separately: http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/33744007
   3. Show a preview of complete file name(s) including prefix and suffix. Right now there's a preview if you enter a suffix, but none if you enter only a prefix. The preview should always be visible in this dialog, since it's possible that one or both of these fields are pre-populated from previous exports.

5. Auto-trace PSDs separately by group/layer

   Transfer/convert Photoshop documents via auto-trace to illustrator vector shapes while retaining general group/layer hierarchy. Any shape layers in PSD should be converted to Illustrator shapes.

   Example: Sketch a new puppet for Character Animator in Photoshop, open the PSD in Illustrator, use auto-trace to convert each layer separately, maintaining relative group/layer hierarchy. Clean up vector paths, use Illustrator puppet in Character Animator at any scale.

6. The ability to check an option for "convert lines to shapes" when I export different formats

   When exporting a file to SVG.... I wish there was a check box where I can specify it converts all lines to shapes on export to SVG... This way I do not have to do the conversion manually... and then revert back when I save ai version...

   Often I get messages that distract me and then I forget to revert back and accidentally save the ai version with lines as shapes... then my mast ai version gets messed up...

   Need More Info  ·  Dirk Schulze responded

   Hi Steve,

   Thanks a lot for reporting the feature request. When you say shape do you mean you want lines to get converted to SVG elements? Does this apply to the other shapes like, ellipse, circle or rectangles as well?

   Greetings,
   Dirk

7. New Document Panel - make the 'thumbnails' more descriptive.

   The New Document Panel tends bring clarity, but the 'Thumbnail', containing a triangle, a square and a circle confuses this. Every size has the same thumbnail. It would be nice if the thumbnail reflects the aspect ration of the preset it belongs to.

8. Autosave ON Visual indicator

   A visual indicator in the application frame that Auto Save is still activated/on. When dealing with complex files auto save is turned off, and stays off. A visual indicator that it is no longer on would be helpful when working in a new file that it needs to be turned back on.

9. Packaging doesn't save library items

   I use my Adobe Library function to save time in placing common graphics into files. However, I notice when I go to package the file to prepare it for the press, it doesn't collect all of the library items, and then turns into an endless loop where the it keeps prompting me to update items in the library. The only workaround for this currently is to grant more people access to my library, which is not best practice, or to go through every link that's on the cloud and resave it into a links folder manually.

10. DATA MERGE . File Names from CSV

    REPEATEDLY NOTICED NOT YET AVAILABLE FEATURE
    It would be tremendously helpful, if we could name exported files via the CSV-file used for data merge, so we can have actual full names, instead „Data Set 1“, … „Data Set 217“.

    ISSUE
    Data Merge exports are being exported without customized file names, which is a major time issue, when dealing with large scale data merge exports.

    SUGGESTED SOLUTION
    Giving users in the VARIABLES -> VARIABLE OPTIONS menu the option to assign „FILE NAME“ to a variable via TYPE, and make this accessible to the ACTIONS when exporting via BATCH.

    WHY
    More effective and efficient turnaround, faster delivery to systems or clients using predetermined/required file naming conventions.

11. Allow to disable "Use Compression" option by default

    The new change making 'Use Compression' a default setting under the Illustrator Options when saving new files has negatively impacted our team's productivity. We require full autonomy over our file settings and find the imposition of new defaults to be unnecessary. We strongly suggest reverting this to an opt-in feature so that professional users can maintain their established saving protocols without manual interference because compression sucks. Thank you!

12. Save to cloud dialog: files in folder not visible

    The new update(s) does not bring back the feature to view files in the folders and in grid view when saving to cloud. This has been causing a lot of problems and inconvenience. Reported few times and have been told that these will be brought back in the next update, but it never did. Frustrating and annoyed.

14. Support compressing images with WebP when exporting via Adobe PDF Presets

    When exporting a PDF, there are several options to compress images: JPEG, JPEG 2000, ZIP. And we can choose the image quality, from Min to Max. To a degree, PDF file sizes can be reduced with these settings, but at a certain point the image quality is too poor for anything meaningful. WebP has incredibly high quality for a low file size, plus it supports an alpha channel.

    This feature would automatically benefit Photoshop and InDesign as well, as they share these presets.

15. Make Acrobat FreeText Comments Appear in Illustrator PDF Files

    When working with marked-up PDFs that contain FreeText annotations (comments), these are clearly visible in Acrobat Pro, but they completely disappear when opening the file in Adobe Illustrator.
    Illustrator only reads the main page content, not annotations. Please consider adding a feature in Acrobat that converts FreeText comments into actual text objects within the PDF so they appear in Illustrator, can be outlined, and printed properly.
    This would help designers and prepress professionals working on packaging, branding, and production workflows.
    Thanks!

16. 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 _".

17. Please please please repair the Template system

    Saving my own Template is still a pain, since the folder where those are stored needs extra privileges, which can't be given from within the Save Template dialog.
    Please, rework this Template save / load system, and make it fail proof and rock solid.

    This is how it should work in 2025:
    -Save Template.
    -Give Name
    -Done

18. Add an option to open the folder with exported images that stays for some time on scree

    I think it would be great if we could see a "View on Computer" or "Go to Folder" option on the screen, floating in the middle of nearly 5-7 seconds. So if we have to use it immediately we can go there with no effort... I'm writing it for Asset Export but I think this feature should be it for any save and export option on every Adobe software.

19. Remember if Artboard or Asset Tab Last Used in Asset Export dialog

    Please remember the last tab in the Asset Export window I was on. It defaults to Assets when I usually use Artboards due to the naming convention I build across artboards. GUI for it is still a bit rough and could use some enhancements. Thx

20. Allow to disable 'Create PDF Compatible File' option when saving AIT templates

    Compatibility with PDF takes a ton of disk space, and .ait templates don’t really need it, because these are no intended to be imported or placed — just launched. Perhaps you should disable it by default?

    As I understand, these are actually just .ai files, but the different extension causes Ai to process them differently...

    I don’t expect a full-blown dialog when saving, but why not?
    Take a look at this related request:
    Allow to choose file version when saving AIT templates
