macOS system typeface error, SERIOUS bug
I'm on a 2020 M1 Mac Mini running macOS 11.1 (Big Sur). Every time I open Illustrator, the system typeface on my OS changes in certain other apps (like Finder, Safari, Calendar, Notes, Spark, and Things) from the usual San Francisco (Apple) typeface to Helvetica. The change in typeface is making the text in these apps off-center, resulting in a weird bootleg-like look. I can temporarily resolve the issue by deleting
/Library/LaunchAgents/com.adobe.AdobeCreativeCloud.plist
and restarting, but the issue occurs again almost instantaneously when I open Illustrator. I understand that these apps aren't designed for the M1 chip yet, but please at…

Type on Path Brackets Not Appearing
When using type on path tool (and then direct selection for realignment), the brackets to realign often don't appear regardless of how long you tediously go over the path trying to get the cursor to change. In the off chance we can get them to appear, often it isn't possible to drag the text fully to where it needs to be to go in place before the cursor jumps. This isn't happening in Photoshop, only Illustrator, which leads me to believe it is a bug.

When copying text in Arabic or Hebrew, Illustrator messes up the characters.
Somehow the text gets flipped into Jibberish. Even when Arabic fonts are used such as Adobe Arabic. This causes the world to be filled with jibberish Hewbrew and Arabic.

Area-Type error when spaning over multiple pages
Using a W10 pro with the last version of Adobe CC Illustrator.
Steps:
I have a small brochure that has some articles. I use area-type and there are some artciles that span over multiple pages. I format my text: font Myriad Regular 12pt, with fist-line indent 14pt and text alignement justify with last lign aligned left.
In the case that the sentence splits at the end of the page, and continues on the next page, the rest of the sentence is shown with first-line indent (and it shouldn't). When selecting the text, the selection it shows you that there is…1 vote -
Adobe AI CC Fonts error question
We recently encountered a "severe error" regarding FONT problem in Illustrator CC.
There are TWO symptoms all regarding using MonoType Chinese Fonts(OpenType Embeddable Fonts) :
- Fonts size automatically decreased once we change the style, e.g. Regular > Bold.
- Fonts inside the "Cloud Assets" will automatically decrease its size randomly once we "Embedded" the assets.
This error occurs probably after the update of AI CC 2021.25.105 (or maybe 1 or 2 versions prior not assure)
Please investigate and revert us the solutions.
Many thanks.
(Attached are the screenshots of the errors)

Cannot select objects near text object
This is a bug and not an idea.

Can't see the fint size in the type panel
Hi, I work in publishing so I need to see the font size in the top bar but all I can see in illustrator 2020 is the stroke size when I choose the T tool. When I watch tutorials I can see they have the type bar across the top but all I have is the character window which is very cumbersome when I need to constantly change the font size. Can you tell me how I can see that type bar? Is it something simple because I just can't figure out how?

Illustrator font panels shows wrong data
When I have a text selected on Illustrator, the fonts panel shows a wrong font, it shows a font what I previously selected for a different text and not the font that the selected text actually is.
in other words, I cannot see what font is used unless I copy the text, and find the font that looks the same.Same thing with font size etc. if I have a text active and the font size is for example 47 px, and I just changed a different text size to 15 px, the fonts panel shows that all of my…

I'm reporting all of these bugs I'm considering asking for a refund my money back for the last months CC Subscription as it the software has been that unreliable.

Strokes not showing properly round on curves they appear to have extra anchor points, which there aren't when you inspect It closer. This is making simple curves look off.
