Placing Linked PDF file with "Show Import Options > Crop to:", placement doesn't obey the option selected
On the latest update to Illustrator (early July 2023), when placing a PDF with "Show Import Options", no matter which option is picked (Art, Crop, Trim, Bleed, Media), it always places to the crop/artboard, even though there is bleed set and larger media/artwork beyond the artboard in the PDF.

"unknown filter error" when importing variables which have multiple links within the document
"unknown filter error" when importing variables which have multiple links within the document.
Reproduce:
1. make a document with variables. I have a mix of image and text but I don't think it matters.link multiple document objects to one variable, as is allowed within illustrator
try to update the variable library with a CSV that has the same structure just different values (average use case)
You should get a dialog warning that variable sets need to be overwritten blah blah click ok and then the error pops up. Probably forgot a nested loop would be my completely uneducated guess.

Automatic numbering does not continue in linked area type
While using automatic numbering, an area text linked to another Artboard or within the Artboard restarts the numbering from 1 after moving the overflown text to the second linked type area. Please add option to choose restart the numbering or continue numbering with user preference. Another issue is that one point with continuing the lines to the next type area also starts with numbering rather than considering the continuation of the last line from first type area.

Can't resize objects, issue with selection tool
Can't resize objects like images or text boxes once they have been placed. Could only use scale and rotate for resizing items. Seems the selection tool isn't working as it should, or it's illustrator itself. I've seen this seems like a recurring problem over the years
2 votesThis often happens when the bounding box gets accidentally turned off, presumably with the Cmd/Ctrl+Shift+B hotkey. You can turn it back on with this key or do it with the View > Show Bounding Box command.

Application name in dialogue box contains strange character
Illustrator version 27.6 shows strange characters in dialogue box.
The app name is $$$/GeneralStr/196=Adobe Illustrator.
It feels not good, to use an app with a strange behavior like this.2 votesThis issue is fixed in 27.6.1 update.

Illustrator 27.6.1 randomly freezing...
This is happenng to a few of the machines in my office. AI will randomly stop responding. The window will grey out and the only way to resolve is to force quit (I've given it an hour once to see if it resolved itself, but no).

Unfoldable layers
Illustrator does not display and allow to click unfold arrows next to these layers, despite the objects in them exist in the document.
The other problem is the applied-but-not-displayed gaussian blur, but that’s the different problem: http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447/suggestions/46794277
The test file is derived from the original provided by Glitschka Studios.

GPU performance enabled, but Illustrator is still using CPU at 100%?
Greetings, I have a 4070 ti and an AMD Ryzen 9 5900x (12 core) with 64 gb of RAM config, windows 11 machine. I have resetted the config files (deleted all the folders there), whenever I open a project that has 3d materiales and objects in it, illustrator refuses to use my GPU, despite having all the relevant boxes ticked in preferences. Here is a screenshot of whats happening. I am a CC subscriber and using the latest version (27.6.1 64bit). My video card should be able to handle any 3d task I set to it silky smooth, just applying…

Save Each Artboard to a Separate File waits until end to save all files at once.
When using the option to save each artboard to a separate file, illustrator keeps all the saved files as TMP files and doesn't finalize them until all artboards have already been exported to the TMP file. This isn't an issue for small files with a few artboards but causes delays with larger files / number of artboards because the AI files are all saved out at once at the very end of the process.
It would be more efficient for some workflows if the AI files were finalized along the way so that they can be further processed by others…

100% View is Inaccurately Sized - Wrong Monitor Resolution Detected?
This is marked ad fixed in older bug reports, but it is still an issue in 2023.
When viewing my artwork at 100% Display, it is not accurate. The document I will refer to for this example is a 6"x9" postcard. The settings I have tried and the actual results are below:Edit>Preferences>Display Print Size at 100% Zoom is checked
Result: ≈7.5"x11"Edit>Preferences>Display Print Size at 100% Zoom is not checked
Result: ≈5.25"x8"Tried both of these settings with the "View Actual Size" shortcut, they rendered the same results.
So currently, the only way for me to actually see the…

Changing color doesn't work sometimes
This bug goes long way back, as far as I remember using illustrator, both on PCs and Macs.
Sometimes (usually in text objects, but not only), when I pick a different swatch to change an object's color, the color in the swatch palette changes, but the object's color remains the same.
To resolve this, I have to choose "None" as the color, and then choose the color I want.2 votes -
Illustrator fails to export all text into final pngs or jpegs
I have been exporting images with text layers and I've noticed Illustrator seems to indiscriminately not export certain lines of text (not layer groups to be clear, but random lines of text). I don't know how to replicate this issue because it appears random, but I did include pngs of the file that I had this issue with most recently.
2 votesWe have been able to resolve the issue. You should not be running into this issue. Please do a relaunch or two to refresh the application.

my cursor is showing a black arrow all the time and doesn't show the tool that I am using
All the tools are working perfectly but instead of the cursor showing the tool I am using, it shows a black arrow all the time. I tried to reinstall Adobe but with the problem persists. Attached you can see two screenshots of me selecting two different tools but the cursor remains with the black arrow. thanks

Automatic hyphenation with + instead of -
Sometimes (not always), the automatic hyphenation divides the word with an "+" sign, instead of a "-" sign, which it should be. It appears with various fonts, it is NEVER reliable, sometimes I write a PDF for the customer, it has the + inside, I see it, I open the AI again and everything if fine again, without restarting anything or changing anything. Sometimes it gets not written correctly for weeks and I have to hyphenate myself, which we all know, is a drag in Illustrator.
Where is the Problem located, and how do we fix it.

The align tools don't work on rectangle in perspective plane
In particular, the center align button in the align menu doesn't work correctly on a rectangle in a perspective plane. I notice that the bounding box does appear to be correct, but the shape is no longer align with its bounding box. Again, this problem only occurs with objects in a perspective plane. And yes, I am using the perspective selection tool to select the object.

Illustrator is crashing all day long, for no reason
Illustrator is crashing straight away, it just crashes and closes, sometimes recovering the file worked on at the time and sometimes not, and for no apparent reason to me. It doesn't crash with a specific file, it has crashed with several. I stopped counting after crashing 20 times in one day. I use a Creative Cloud account where I alternate using it between a Windows computer (at work) and at home on an iMac (home-office) and it only crashes on Windows. There is no conflict to report in System Compatibility Report in the Help menu. When it crashes and closes,…

Justification attribute to center text in Illustrator API
Why do Justification to aiCenter and Align Center produce different results?
Given myLabel string with at least one line break character in it, when I use JavaScript code like this...Set myFrame = textGroup.TextFrames.Add
myFrame.TextRange.CharacterAttributes.Size = defaultFontSize
myFrame.TextRange.CharacterAttributes.TextFont = appRef.TextFonts.Item(nameOfFont)
myFrame.Contents = myLabel
myFrame.Paragraphs(1).ParagraphAttributes.Justification = 2 ' aiCenter
myFrame.Position = Array(myXPos, myYPos)...the lines of text are not centered with respect to each other.
Is there a way, using the JavaScript API, to achieve text-centering of multiple lines in a text frame?
If not, I'd like to request a new paragraph attribute to the JavaScript API to accomplish this function.…2 votes
