  2. Problem with Grouping Layers

    I didn't use to have this problem and it doesn't seem to happen all the time, but when it happens it is annoying. That is, when I want to group two different sets of separately grouped objects into a grouped layer, what happens is that each of the layer groups with specific set of objects become combined into one single layer group. That is, the objects are no longer layer grouped by their original layer groups, but all the objects where combined into the same layer group. An Example would be: One layer group contains yellow objects and another layer…

  3. "Other option" for text in Properties panel slow down PC

    Illustrator beta 29.5 35
    When I try to open "other option" for text in the property panel the software slow down very much, I mean it freeze for at least 10 seconds and it happens every time. If I use the usual full Text panel no problems, but normally using the Properties is easier to have all in the same place, so it's a bit frustrating.
    I link the screenshot ot the software frozen after clicking the button.

  4. Unknown error during file import

    Illustrator 2025 (29.1)
    MacBook Pro M3 16"
    MacOS Sonoma 14.7.1

    When importing I'm getting a random "Unknown error" message. Afterwich the import failes.

    This seems chipset related. When I boot Illustrator 2024 (28.7.3) in Rosetta mode, the error is gone.

  5. Command-H stopped working for show/hide edges in 29.0.1.

    Maybe this stopped earlier, I never bothered with any release of 2024.

    I've been using Illustrator since 2000 and this hotkey is ingrained into my fingers. I don't care that MacOS wants to use command-hide to hide programs.

    Fooling around in Illustrator's keyboard settings reveals that if I set this to something else, I can't even reassign it to command-h.

    And annoyingly enough System Settings says that I can't assign custom shortcuts to Illustrator so I can't work around this by assigning nothing to illustrator>hide illustrator. Is this a deliberate choice being made by Adobe, the same way someone decided…

  8. プリントに選択したページは全て空白です

    Illustrator 2025(29.3)で、アートボードを印刷しようとすると「プリントに選択したページは全て空白です」 というエラーが出て印刷ができない。リンクオブジェクトにリンクを配置した際、リンク元となるデータが.aiのファイルで、かつそのリンク元のレイヤー内でリンクオブジェクト(確認したケースでは埋め込みリンク)のみが表示されており、その他のパスなどの要素が表示されていない場合にこの現象がおきた。

  9. Subject: Issue with Type Tool - Font Changes Automatically After Pressing Spacebar

    Dear Adobe Team,

    I hope this message finds you well. I am reaching out to report an issue I am encountering with the Type Tool in Adobe Illustrator.

    When I select any font and start typing, the font automatically changes after I press the spacebar. This issue occurs regardless of the font selected, and I am unsure why this is happening.

    Could you please assist me in resolving this problem? I would appreciate your guidance on how to fix this issue or if there is a setting I need to adjust.

    Thank you for your help. I look forward to…

  11. 合成フォントを使うとaiファイルのPDFデータが空白になる

    「PDF互換ファイルを作成」をチェックONにして保存したaiファイルには「ネイティブデータ」と「PDFデータ」の2種類の異なるデータが格納されています。

    Illustrator環境設定「ファイル管理 > バックグラウンドで保存/書き出し」をONにして合成フォントを使うと、aiファイルの「PDFデータ」が空白(PDFのコンテンツストリームが空)になってしまう場合があります。なお「ネイティブデータ」は正常に保存されます。

    ●PDFデータの確認方法
    拡張子「ai」を「pdf」に変更してAcrobatで開く。拡張子「ai」のままAcrobatで開いてはいけない。
    または、InDesignドキュメントにリンク配置する。
    または、macOSならクイックルックで表示する。

    再現手順

    ●前準備
    1. Illustratorを起動
    2. 環境設定「ファイル管理」の「バックグラウンドで保存」「バックグラウンドで書き出し」をチェックONにする
    3. 合成フォントをすべて削除する
    ●再現操作
    1. 新規ドキュメントを作成
    2. 合成フォントを新規作成
    3. テキストツールで文字を入力
    4. 2の合成フォントを3に適用する
    5. ファイル保存
    6. 合成フォントの設定を変更する(ウェイト変更など)
    7. ファイル保存

    2020(24)は5の時点でアラートが表示される。
    2021(25)は5の時点でアラートが表示される。
    2022(26)は5の時点でアラートなく保存されPDFデータが空白になる。

    2023(27)は7の時点でアラートなく保存されPDFデータが空白になる。

    対処方法

    環境設定「ファイル管理」の「バックグラウンドで保存」「バックグラウンドで書き出し」をチェックOFFにする。ただし抑止はされるが完全に防止できるわけではない。

  12. Macのスクリーンタイムでの利用時間カウントが正常でない

    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:
      Mac OS 13.6.4(22G513)
      Illustrator 29.3.1

    2. 問題が発生したときに実行していた手順:
      アプリを起動した状態で、Macをスリープした状態(操作は行っていない)

    3. 想定していた結果:
      Macのスクリーンタイムでは、Illustratorの使用時間がカウントされない

    4. 実際の結果
      スリープしている時間も、ずっとIllustratorを操作した時間としてカウントされている
      (添付画像はある日のスクリーンタイムのスクリーンショットです。
       深夜2時から朝の11時にかけて、スリープ状態でしたが、Illustratorを操作したことになっています。
       1度きりの発生ではなく、毎回このような状態になっています。)

  16. Text converting to outlines when exporting and/or saving as SVG in Illustrator 2025

    Text is getting converted to outlines when exporting and/or saving as SVG in Illustrator 2025, even though I am NOT selecting that option. This is bad for SEO and accessibility and needs to be fixed asap.
