Not constraining to 91 degrees & 136 degrees instead of 90 degrees & 135 degrees with shift
Even with constrain angle at 0 degrees & smart guides at 45 & 90 degree angles & turning all snapping options off:
holding down shift when rotating while drawing with line segment tool shows live angle snapping at 0, 45, then 91 & 136, then back to 180, 225, 270, 315, then 0 again.
When I release at what it says to be 91 or 136 degrees by my mouse -> I check the rotate properties in the right panel & the angles are correct at 90 & 135 degrees where they snapped.
So it's just displaying the wrong snapping…-

Saving as PDF loses all artwork outside of artboard - THIS HAS TO BE FIXED
For 15 years I have never had an issue saving files as PDFs. I have always used the save as Smallest File Size PDF option, I do a lot of large format printing so this is necessary in order to rip files in a timely manner to the printer. Now when I save a pdf all my artwork that's outside the artboard disappears, hours upon hours of artwork just gone, no warning. Its bad enough there is no longer a way to purchase the software so having to pay monthly and the constant terrible updates are ruining me and my…

Objects vanish when a PDF is exported
The PDF document is not being saved correctly. I have tried saving it in different ways, changing the elements and it still isn't working. I believe it is a problem in Acrobat itself perhaps?

I can't delete or merge swatches.
I have 4 separate issues, all stemming from the swatches panel:
1. I can't select a range of swatches and delete them. I have to select them individually and then delete them. Huge waste of time.
2. Sometimes when I delete a swatch, the thumbnail remains in the panel but changes to the red slash for "no color." I now have multiples of these in my swatches panel (see attachment).
3. Merge swatches simply doesn't work, even if they are both global swatches that I've generated.
4. Using the command "select all unused," and then trying to delete the batch,…1 vote -
Font switches to default and back while navigating string with arrows
It's a bit hard to explain in words, so please watch the screencast I recorded. To put it simply: if a text block has a font other than the default (Myriad), and you want to navigate the text using the arrow keys, each time you click the button, the font in the panels changes to the default font and then back. The new letters have the correct font, although this does impact performance, especially for large texts.

Blob Brush strokes often include garbage on turns
What is wrong with Blob Brush. Even with simplest strokes I often get groups, and these have the main part and tiny pieces of garbage next to it in them.
Sometimes these are thinnest slivers, sometimes knotted madness, sometimes chunks chomped off...
If I run simple Pathfinder Add, some of this get 'healed'. Why don’t you do at least this? Why these awfully angular turns and garbled edges happen in the first place? Please study the file.4 votes -
Major Bug: Illustrator "undo"s randomly the last step (transform, move and copy using "alt")
Adobe Illustrator does randomly revert the last transformation. Sometimes it reverts movement, sometimes scaling, sometimes copy and moving using "alt".

Missing fonts warning when no fonts are missing
Every time I open any illustrator document, the missing fonts box shows up telling me all of the fonts are missing, but when I click replace fonts, they don't show as missing any more and there's no issue. This is a really annoying bug.

Artwork gets shifted when an artboard is resized with width and height constrained and Scale Artwork Constrained enabled
CC 2025 v29.0 introduces the long-awaited "Scale Artwork with Artboard" option. When we drag the transformation frame with the Artboard tool, the objects are scaled synchronously, and the position’s calculated properly.
However, when we start to enter the width or height of the artboard, with Constrain locked, the objects get shifted relative to the artboard after being scaled.
The problem has been confirmed on both MacOS and PC.10 votesFixed in Beta 29.1.0.93
Please verify and comment back.

New file window always in fullscreen instead of previous window size
In the past, Illustrator opened a new file to the size and position of the previous window. Now it ALWAYS goes to full screen, and I then ALWAYS have to size it back down to how I want it. this is a new and unwanted behavior, so please fix it. Thanks.

Holding Shift ignores Snap to Grid when creating artboards
When Snap to Grid is enabled, artboards now respect it, both when moved or get created... unless you hold Shift to constrain proportions when resizing or making it a square.
Totally works for rectangles, I can see no reason to prevent artboards from behaving in a similar fashion.
Here’s a somewhat similar request about these also misbehaving with smart guides:

Shift+Dragging an Object doesn’t constrain it
Dear Adobe, if I wanted to nudge an object across the screen with the arrow keys to retain it's current horizontal/vertical alignment I would be designing everything in Microsoft applications. Please, PLEASE, PLEEEEEEAAAAAASE fix the Shift+Drag position constraint, it hasn't worked for over a year, and I'm losing my mind.

Sudden and constant "Out of GPU memory" error, Ai 29.4
I am suddenly getting constant "Out of GPU memory" errors, which renders all the graphics in "Outline" view, and crashes Illustrator. It just started occurring today (Wednesday April 23, 2025). Yesterday everything was fine.
Mac Studio, M2 Max, 64 GB RAM, Sonoma. Ai 29.4My CS6 version of Illustrator at home on an old Mac, runs so much better than anything coming out of Adobe ever since this Creative Cloud debacle disaster!

File with links to the same filename, when folder is moved, tries to open itself
Suppose a file X have links to file Y with the same name but in other folder. If you move the original file so Illustrator can't find Y, it then tries to open the filename in its own folder and find the file itself (X). Multiple links cause the message "the file is already opened"
