In large curved text, every time you move any anchor they become very small. If you move the text everything goes back to normal until you touch the anchors again.

Illustrator 24.2 tab stops not working with blank text lines
Tab stops do not function correctly when the text line has no text. We commonly use this for creating underlines. Attached examples show a text field with tab stops. The text lines with characters use the tab stops correctly (spaces do not count). Any text lines without characters cause the tab stops to be one space wide.

Text Cursor in Medium Light mode is invisible
The text cursor and the click+drag selection box are the same color as the background outside of an artboard if the User Interface is set to Medium Light mode. They are completely invisible.

24.2 Unable to use special characters: English OS, German regional settings and keyboard
On a fresh English language Illustrator installation (English OS, German regional settings and German qwertz keyboard on Win10) I am unable to use any character that needs ALT GR as a Modifier. I therefore can not access €, @ | and a lot of pretty important letters. If that helps, Photoshop doesn't show this problem, but Indesign has similar issues. Other, non CC apps with English UI language work fine.

Cannot stop Auto Resize on Area Type box for large text areas
I do not want my text box to auto-resize. The "Auto-Resize" option fails on large text box areas. Auto-Resize is turned off in my preferences. I have large text box areas filled with type and whenever I need to make an adjustment to the type box it always automatically resizes. I have tried selecting the "fixed" options and those fail too. In the video attached you can see that large areas of text will automatically resize. However, on a smaller scale the Area Type box does not.

Illustrator 24.1.3 Type tool and text refresh
I've been experiencing an error and annoying Type tool bug since the last update to AI 24.1.3. It happens when I type something and later I go back to edit it (for example adding extra text, fixing a type) and the change does not appear to occur until I switch to Outline view. Alternatively, if I option-drag the text path the duplicate path shows the correct text. This is an old error (at least in appearance) that was fixed several versions ago and now it's back.

Text in connected Area Type Text boxes becomes very unstable when scaling
MacOs Mojave 10.14.6
What did:
Made area type square object
Copied it 13 times, connected it
put this structure under mask (tried also to put every object under it's own mask- same result).
added shape objects
Scaled everything - everything fine.
selected all the text in the structure and write new one with the same font/
Scaled it
Usually if you select this structure of connected area type boxes in company with some shape or object and scale all this, size of text in this boxes changes accordingly.
Result differs every time. Sometimes it's fine, sometimes all the letters have…

Optical Kerning issue when outlining and scaling
If you write something using optical kerning, copy it, paste in front and outline it, the outline matches up. However if you then scale both in pro, lets say 300%, then the live text no longer matches the outlined version (see attached example where the live text is in red and outlined vectors in black). This is causing us problems when scaling objects onto different panels but we are required to supply editable text. Logos etc are no longer exact scaled replicas!
We are using CC 2019 (as our clients need files in this format).1 vote -
Text path vanishes when moving it with selection tools (black or white arrows)
Since updating to version 24.1.2 from Adobe Illustrator 2019, whenever I move text objects using any of the selection arrows, the highlighted path disappears during moving and only reappears when I stop moving the text object. This is frustrating as I can't see the baseline or centre point of the text object while trying to align it to something else. This never happened before I updated Illustrator. My OS is macOS Mojave 10.14.6, Illustrator version 24.1.2.

Find and replace superscript
I've tried copying the superscripted text to the clipboard and pasting in the Replace box of the Find and Replace dialog, but it loses the superscripting, and pastes into the document without it. I find I have to go into each occurrence individually and superscript each one.

Cannot activate new fonts
I'm using Illustrator 24.1.2 with a creative cloud student subscription on Mac OS Catalina. When I try to activate any font not installed locally, the activation process will go on for five minutes, then terminate itself. No font would be installed. I Googled around for similar problems, and many suggested looking at the "Font" tab of the creative cloud app. I don't have that tab. The only tab in my creative cloud app is "Apps".

Fonts are not refreshed when right sided metrics are changed
This issue happens in the context of editing the metrics of a font file multiple times (in order to view new metrics changes in realtime).
Fonts will not always be refreshed to the latest version when overwriting a font file in the Adobe Fonts folder with a new updated version:
When a right sidebearing of a glyph is changed and the font regenerated, the font is NOT updated in Illustrator.
Whereas editing a left side bearing and regenerating the font will show the updated font with all edited metrics (both the new left & right sidebearings).
Issue happens in all…

Everytime creative cloud app is required to reactivate the fonts
I activated 2 new fonts from adobe fonts website and it worked well.
After that I closed Ai and next day when I opened Ai again then it's showing missing fonts and there is no way to activate them from Ai.
I have to start creative cloud app always to reactivate these fonts. This is very annoying and killing a lot of time. Also it takes ages to start creative cloud app even on fast internet connection. This also needs improvement.
Once the fonts are activated - isn't that installed locally on my machine? Why every time it needs to…3 votes
