  2. テキスト右揃え不具合

    OS / Windows 11 Home 23H2
    Illustrator 2025(バージョン 29.1)

    右揃えテキスト中に四分アキ等の文字が含まれ、アキの設定を自動の場合、テキスト右端がズレます。
    自動設定ではなく、「アキなし」や個別にアキ量を「二分アキ」等に指定するとこの問題は解消されます。

  3. Threaded text areas display only first lines when Adobe Every-Line composer is used, since 29.6

    Issue: two or more threaded text areas no longer render all text inside. The text does still exist (as visible in View > Outline) but it does not render on screen or when exporting / saving out. Whereas text flashes visibility for single text areas with no threading, but does eventually show.

    Actions taken: fresh text areas; freshly typed text (not copy-pasted); fresh document with fresh areas and fresh text. All do not render fully. Also ensured text is at the very top with no unseen masks or shapes obscuring. Turning off and on Outline View, bounding box, edges etc.

  4. Fonts get missing on file reopening

    Sometimes when I open a file I have already worked on, fonts go missing even though I used them before closing the file.

  5. Threaded Type not scaling correctly

    Mac Pro (2019, Intel), MacOS 15.6.1, Illustrator 29.7.1

    After the update to version 29.7.1, the text in linked type objects does not scale (using the Scale tool) or scales disproportionately (using the Selection tool).

    The Free Transform Tool currently appears to be the only way to scale these objects together while keeping the type size proportional to the objects being scaled.

    The issue occurs in new and existing documents.

    See thread here for more details: https://community.adobe.com/t5/illustrator-discussions/type-not-scaling-correctly-in-linked-type-objects/m-p/15492486

  6. HEX Franklin Variable Font is Not Visible when Editing

    I am on a Mac running Illustrator 29.4. I am trying to use the variable OTF version of HEX Franklin, and all Adobe apps do not render the letterforms. When I try to select the variable font in the dropdown, it just defaults back to Myriad or the default typeface.

    Other variable fonts work as intended, but specifically, this one is broken. Any possible fix?

  7. 一部の日本語フォントが正常に表示されない

    macOS Tahoe 26.0 / Macbook Pro Late 2023
    Illustrator 29.8.1

    添付画像のとおり、一部の日本語フォントが正常に表示されません。
    他のAdobeアプリ(Photoshop等)では正常に表示されますが、Illustratorだけがダメです。
    また、同じフォントでもウエイトによって表示される文字と表示されない文字が混在している様です。

    さらに、フォントパネル上ではフォント名が表示されていますが「フォントの検索と置換」のドキュメント内のフォント名が文字化けしています。

    Illustrator 28.7.9では正常に表示されている様なので、OS依存のバグではなさそうです。

  8. Illustrator crashes when I double-click a text to edit

    These are awful. You are awful. The program has closed 10 times. The reason is I don't want to double-click a text and edit it. I can't get it to work. You're screwed for the program. Every time I double-click a text and try to edit something, the program closes. The world's highest-earning software is a worthless software team.

  9. Text is not working

    My textboxes are empty including those that use to have text in it. I can create or select and edit them but when I type something in, nothing appears. If I try to select a text layer thats connected to a group, it randomly changes to selecting the parent/group.

  10. Crashes immediately when adding a leader before a "tate-chu-yoko" text in vertical orientation

    Guaranteed immediate crashing upon adding a leader in the Tabs panel to a tabbed gap right before a character that's set as tate-chu-yoko.
    Now I have to use bad workarounds just to circumvent this...
    Hope it gets fixed soon.

  11. 文字組みアキ量設定の動作不良

    1.お使いのオペレーティングシステムおよび Adobe Illustrator (デスクトップ版) のバージョン
    Windows10、Adobe Illustrator28.7.1

    2.問題が発生したときに実行していた手順
    Illustrator28.5以前で作成した添付の文字組み設定を、Illustrator28.7.1で開き、移動するなどすると前カッコが移動する。
    添付資料の文字組み設定を利用したテキストで、全角丸開始カッコのみ移動する。
    他の全角カッコでは問題なし。
    複数のPCで同様の症状が出る。

    3.想定していた結果
    4.実際の結果
    添付資料を確認ください。

    1件のデータ内に、上記の文字組み設定利用有無の文字列が混在しており、同様のデータが100件以上あります。大変困っています。
    現状は、Illustrator27.9.5で対処しています。

  12. 表示用に埋込んだ日本語OTFが表示されない

    macOS14.7.2/27inch iMac/i5/32GB/1TB
    Illustrator ver.29.3

    再現手順
    1.新規ドキュメントを開き任意のテキストを入力し日本語OTFフォントを指定する。
    2.「ファイルプレビュー用に許可されたフォントを埋め込む」チェックボックスをONにして保存して閉じる。
    3.指定したフォントをアンインストールする。
    4.先のドキュメントをIllustratorで開く。
    5.プレビュー用に埋め込まれたフォントが表示に利用されない。

    期待する結果
    埋め込まれたフォントを利用してオリジナルの体裁が表示される。

    実際の結果
    ドキュメントのDictionaryに含まれる「Embeded Font Binary Data」にはエンコードされたフォントが保存されるが、ドキュメントを開いた際に利用されない。

    いくつか検証しましたが、WesternフォントやCJKであってもTrueTypeであればプレビュー表示されます。AdobeFontに含まれる日本語フォントやモリサワのOTF等がドキュメントに含められているにも関わらず表示に利用されません。
    フォントのファミリー名やスタイル名の処理に問題があるように思います。

    Translated:
    Steps to reproduce
    1. Open a new document, enter any text, and specify a Japanese OTF font.
    2. Check the "Embed permitted fonts for file preview" checkbox, save, and close.

    4. Open the previous document in Illustrator.
    5. The font embedded for preview is not used for display.

    Expected result
    The original appearance is displayed using the embedded font.

    Actual result

  13. Glyph substitution not working in v28.7.1

    In v28.7.1, if the formatting of the character immediately before a glyph substitution is different, the glyph substitution does not work, and the default glyph is displayed instead. This bug occurs just by opening an ai file from a previous version. It's an extremely serious bug.


    v28.7.1でグリフ置換が機能しない

    v28.7.1では、グリフ置換の直前の文字の書式が異なると、グリフ置換が機能せず、デフォルトのグリフが表示されてしまいます。このバグは、以前のバージョンのaiファイルを開いただけで発生します。非常に深刻なバグです。

  14. Many issues in Illustrator 2025

    Hi everyone,
    I'm experiencing a range of serious issues in Illustrator 2025 when working with AI or PDF files (many of which originate as PDFs and are then converted to AI for editing). Here's a breakdown of what's going wrong:

    ⚠️ Main Problems:

    Error ID: -128 when pasting text
    Every time I try to paste text into a text box—whether copied from a browser, a PDF, or even another Illustrator file—I get an error saying:
    Can't paste the type. ID: -128
    This makes it impossible to replace or update any existing text areas.

    Can't move objects: transformation too large
    When…

  15. Installed Fonts not showing

    Previously installed fonts not showing anymore. Says the fonts are missing but it worked previously and maybe 1 in 10 times it will have no error and the fonts will show. These fonts exist on my PC so it's not a cloud issue as far as i can see.

  17. Upon reopening Ai files, it shows that fonts are missing when they aren't

    To fix the "error" I have to navigate to Adobe fonts, uninstall each font one by one, as uninstalling a font family all at once doesn't fix the issue, then individually reinstall each font. Super tedious and taxing to workflow. Issue is across multiple files, all that I have created on the same device that presents the "missing font" dialogue so I know it isn't a file issue. Please fix.

  18. Spell check error - changes language to Bulgarian

    Spell Check starts in English for the first few then always changes to Bulgarian! This renders spell check absolutely useless, unless I happen to type in Bulgarian... which I haven't had the need to so far.

  19. Morisawa Fontsの和文バリアブルフォントDriveFluxが使えない

    いつのバージョンからかMorisawa Fontsの和文バリアブルフォントDriveFluxが急に使えなくなりました。macOS 15.6、Illustrator 2024 29.7.1を使用しています。2024の最初の方は使えてたんですが、どこかのマイナーバージョンアップで急に表示されなくなってしまいました。2025でも使えません。モリサワに相談したところ「こちらではどうしようもないのでAdobeさんに相談してください」とのことでした。ちなみにMonotypeの和文バリアブルフォントは問題ありません。ご対応お願いします。

    That's it. It just disappeared. Reset computer - didn't fix it. I'm on Windows 11 Pro Version 24H2. I'm updated to the latest Windows 11 version, and the latest Adobe Illustrator CC version (v 29.8.1)
