Reading SVG does not respect dominant-baseline="middle" attribute
For <text> elements
dominant-baseline="hanging" and dominant-baseline="baseline" are parsed correctly, with text aligned on top and bottom, respectively.
But dominant-baseline="middle" is not respected, and is instead rendered as dominant-baseline="baseline".
This produces misaligned text, which is displayed aligned normally by Edge, Firefox, Chrome.

Merge button in Pathfinder panel works incorrectly
Merge button in Pathfinder now works the same as Trim. It cuts out invisible parts of objects but leaves them separated. Merge should unite shapes with same color. This is one of most used operations when creating logos and it is now broken. Sad.
Merge effect however works correctly, so current workaround is to group objects together, apply Effect > Pathfinder > Merge, then use Object > Expand Appearance.
Steps to reproduce:
Create two red and one blue rectangle. All without stroke.
Position them so they slightly overlap each other.
Open Pathfinder panel, click Merge (3rd icon at the bottom…3 votes -

The pencil tool is not responding to the fidelity even if is 100% smooth it will add anchor points making the drawing really wobbly. I noticed this only happens on the new Illustrator2021 version running on Mojave 11.1. Seems to be a common issue currently See link below:

"View Using GPU" Greys Out Using Images with "ProPhoto RGB" Colour Profiles
AI Version: 25.2
OS: MacOS 11.2.1
Using GPU Preview
MacBook Pro (13-inch, 2018, Four Thunderbolt 3 Ports)Problem:
- "View Using GPU" is visible and enabled
- Adding linked images (in this case a JPEG) with a "ProPhoto RGB" colour profile applied to the image file will cause "View Using GPU" to become disabled and greyed out.Expected Behaviour:
- Linked Images with any colour profile applied should not effect the ability to use the "View Using GPU" setting.Workaround:
- Open the image in Photoshop and convert it to another colour profile like sRGB IEC61966-2.1 then save the image. …1 vote -

Pdf open in AI different than Adobe Acrobat Reader
Sometimes, when I open a pdf in adobe acrobat reader, everything is ok. Image is aligned correctly.
But, when i open same pdf in Adobe Illustrator, the image is not correctly placed in Artwork bounds.
- Work around to solve this: Object – Artboards – Fit to Artwork Bounds
Why is it always shown correctly in Adobe Acrobat reader, but not in Adobe Illustrator.1 vote -
Select Next Object Below
Running Windows 10 (64-bit) and the latest version of Adobe Illustrator. The bug I am experiencing is the shortcut to Select Next Object Below (Alt+Ctrl+[) is not working properly. Neither is the Select Next Object Above, nothing new is selected when I press the buttons, it remains on my already selected layer which is neither the top most or bottom most.

Can't place circle or square in middle of other circle or square.
On circle tool.
1) Draw a circle
2) Go to the middle of the circle to draw another cirlce.
3) It does not let me. (Changes to some selection tool)This did not used to happen in older versions of illustrator. When it changed I just lived with it, but working on a file now where I have to create a bunch of objects in middle of other objects and its driving me mad. Anyway to revert it back to the way it used to be? (probably worked fine in about 2010)
