  1. Baseline Shift units change to points when Language Options gets changed to East Asian

    For some reason Ai believes my Baseline Shift units MUST be in points when I choose to use East Asian Language Options, like the GIF shows.

  4. When revealing a link in Finder/Explorer Illustrator opens the folder but doesn’t select the file, unlike InDesign does

    Unlike InDesign, this function does go to the folder, but it doesn't select the file.

    I assume this is a bug and not how Adobe intends it to work??

    I don't buy the idea that "I really doubt Illustrator can SELECT the file in the Finder / Explorer... I bet it’s something outside of its capabilities and both OS don’t really offer an integration like this".

    Why is it that InDesign can do this if there's some inherent thing blocking this functionality?

  5. Unavailable fonts in Illustrator vs Acrobat Reader

    When I open a document with a missing font, Illustrator keeps displaying the correct font. However, when I open the same document without any changes in Acrobat Reader, the font changes to the default font. Is this normal? Or do I have to worry about converting to curves first?

  6. Bullets/Numbering indents don't scale with type objects

    The Indent/First line indent values set in bullets and numbering options don't scale with type objects.

    Normal paragraph indents do scale as expected, so I think this is an oversight or bug.

    Examples:
    1. Area type with text at 12pt, numbering options have an 18pt left indent and -18pt first line indent.
    2. Same object scaled 150% -- type is now 18pt, indents have not changed, meaning left indents for double figures have been forced to the next tab.
    3. Paragraph without bullets/numbers, 12pt, left indent 18pt, first line indent -18pt.
    4. Same object scaled 150%, type is now 18pt,…

  9. Impossible de redimensionner un objet sur Illustrator

    Bonjour, 
     
    Depuis la mise à jour Illustrator 2025, je n'arrive plus à redimensionner un objet ou une image. 
    Le curseur ne s'affiche pas dans le coin comme habituellement sur les autres versions d'illustrator.
    Pouvez-vous m'aider ?

  10. オブジェクトをバウンディングボックスで拡大縮小するときに、斜め拡大と縦横の伸縮拡大が逆になってしまう

    使用環境
    ソフトウェア: Adobe Illustrator 2025
    バージョン: 29.0.1

    特定のファイルを使用している際に、選択ツールを使ったバウンディングボックスでの拡大縮小操作が正しく動作しない現象が発生しています。他のファイルでは正常に操作ができるものの、特定のファイルにおいてのみ、斜めの拡大縮小と縦横の拡大縮小が逆になってしまい、期待通りの変形ができません。

    バグが起こった手順:
    1. 特定のファイルを開く。
    2. 選択ツールを使用してオブジェクトを選択し、バウンディングボックスの角または辺にカーソルを合わせて拡大縮小操作を行う。
    3. 通常であれば、斜めの拡大縮小(角をドラッグ)と縦横の拡大縮小(辺をドラッグ)が正しく行われるはずですが、問題のファイルでは、角をドラッグしても縦横の拡大縮小に、辺をドラッグしても斜めの拡大縮小に変わってしまいます。
    ソフトを終了して、環境設定を初期化して再起動することで、一時的に問題が解消されることがありました。
    しかし、一定期間使用していると再び同じ現象が発生してしまいます。

  11. Finder Apps and Adobe Bridge no longer open Adobe Illustrator

    Something changed with the last update that altered the default association between Illustrator files and the application. I first noticed it when my barcode app failed to launch Illustrator upon export—something that had been working perfectly for years. Then, I encountered the same issue in Adobe Bridge: every time I double-click a .ai file, it simply won’t open.

    After investigating, I discovered that the default file association for .ai files had been changed to something called IllustratorDiagnosys (see screenshot). Manually changing this back to Adobe Illustrator within Bridge resolved the issue inside that app, but external applications and links are…

  12. Illustrator 29.6.1: Script error on startup

    I get a message of a script error on startup; either InDesign or Photoshop. If I remove the 'offending' script, it moves on to find an error in another file.

  14. Edit Toolbar menu gets hidden when a toolbar is too close to the bottom edge of the screen

    If you have a custom toolbar and it’s positioned too close to the bottom of your screen, and you press the Edit Toolbar button — the portion of the 'drawer' with all the tool icons is positioned from the top of the toolbar, and it’s bottom half is missing... you can’t move it, scroll it, reach to the icons hidden — you have to close it, move the toolbar, and start editing it again.

    Please position this 'dropdown menu' in a way it’s seen in full, or resized to fit into the screen, no matter where the toolbar is on…

  15. File "..." was generated by a newer version of Illustrator. Would you like to import this file? Some data loss may occur.

    After updating Adobe Illustrator, I have encountered a serious issue when working with PDF files that contain multiple artboards. When opening such files, I receive the following error message:

    File "..." was generated by a newer version of Illustrator. Would you like to import this file? Some data loss may occur.

    If I choose to import, only one artboard remains in the opened file, and all other artboards disappear. This happens with all files saved with multiple artboards, resulting in significant data loss.

    Please assist in resolving this issue, as it greatly impacts my work and causes loss of important…

  17. 29.4 is hanging/freezing in dialogs

    I have found myself unable to work in 29.4. Program hangs/freezes all the time after entering some kind of dialog (save, settings, color mode, etc). I reset the settings to default, didn't help.

    Reverted back to 29.3.1, no problems

  18. Open or place PSD file does not keep any editable layers

    I am trying to open a file that I created in PSD that has three layers plus some adjustment layers. Two of these layers are text. Regardless of if I open or place them Illustrator, the file comes in as a single bitmap layer. Open does ask me if I want to keep the layers and text, but it does not work. Place doesn't ask; it just places the image.

  19. 2025 (29.0.1) is giving tons of errors on preview.

    I have a file with some simple multi-gradient appearance stacks that constantly throws two errors every time I load it, and every time I switch outline mode on and off. Also the document is marked as modified the instant I load it.

    Works fine on 2023. Dunno how it works on 2024, I never switched to that one. Constantly complains on 2025.

    This is happening in CPU preview mode, I would check if it's happening in GPU mode as well but I deleted 2025 before thinking about that detail.

    Uservoice isn't letting me upload this file so I've posted it…

  20. 線を細く設定した際の表示バグ

    線の太さを0.001pxなどに設定した場合、設定は出来ているのに実際の線の表示位置と、選択できる線実体の位置にズレが生じます。
    表示限界かとは思いますが、表示できないなら設定も出来なくすべきかと思います。
