insanely-bloated file size with placed images
Placing a 4.2 mb JPEG in Illustrator document (with little or no text or vector art) results in a file size of over 40 mb. Adobe dismisses this as "expected behavior" and closes the case with no effort to fix an obvious problem.
An Illustrator document with 47 mb of placed JPEGs and nominal text and vector art yields a 513+ mb document! An 18-page (1-side print) PDF produced from this document was 523 mb. WAY too big to send via e-mail or FTP, the client had to come to my office with a thumb drive and download it from…3 votes -
v23.1.1: Text with the "Outline Object" effect and Preview Bounds enabled has shifted to the right when opening an existing file
We have existing AI files with text, which has the following characteristics:
- Text has the Outline Object effect enabled;
- Illustrator preferences "Preview Bounds" is checked;
- Paragraph is "centred"When we open these AI files we find that the text has been shifted to the right a little bit.
This has occurred on both the Windows 10 and Mac OS Mojave operating systems. To fix the issue we downgraded to Illustrator 23.0.6

Illustrator randomly deform random nodes and elongates them!
illustrator ver 23.1.1
os ver macos 10.13.6
16gb 2.8ghz hd5750gpu board.While working with illustrator (2018-2019 both are doing the same thing. While moving or duplicating curved objects around the page, or while saving the document, it's randomly picks a one of curve nodes and elongates them to random length. Done experimenting with other mac stations and same file, we cannot reproduce this behaviour. Uninstalled - reinstalled illustrator and updated os system didnt help either.

Flashing screen when loading multiple files at once
When multiple files are loaded at one time when the Application Frame is disabled it will result in an annoying screen flicker/blinking of each file loading as a new window. The more files that are loaded at once the more blinking you will be blinded by.
Usually of Illustrator preloads all of the files first and then loaded the main window/set of tabs, as apposed to loading each tab one at a time with this visual annoyance.
I've tested this on earlier on Illustrator 23.1.1 on High Sierra and this issue does not occur.
It does occur on my primary…

CC Libraries panel doesn't respond when clicked
My CC Libraries opens, shows me everything but when I click on let's say a color to swap it does nothing. None of the libraries work. It's like the I'm clicking in a ghost swatch or something. I even reinstalled illustrator to see if it would help. Nothing. Bug or fixable?

Tracking plus center/right justify broken
macOS 12.13, Illustrator 2019 v23.1.1
The v23.1 update broke center/right justify on point type when tracking is applied. When tracking is applied, and type is center or right justified, the alignment uses the tracking after the last character to determine the center or right alignment point, then the type is not visually aligned correctly.
To reproduce in v23.1.1:
Create a point type object, type XX for the text.
Center justify the type. The type will correctly be centered exactly between the 2 X's.
Add a lot of tracking to the type, the anchor point (center) will be just to the…

With GPU acceleration on, click on rule when an art-board is under this rule, the art-board becomes active.
No problem if GPU is Off.
- Create a document with 2 art-boards,
- Show rules and switch to art-board rules (Display/Rules/),
Click on a rule when an art-board is under this rule, the art-bord under the rule become the active art-board. This is not the expected behavior.
On the other hand, the behavior is correct when GPU acceleration is off.1 vote -
Linked images opening in Photoshop by accident
Especially big files (exhibition walls etc.) operate so slowly that it often happens by accident that linked images open in Photoshop - although no double-click on the photo ever happened. I'd like to be able to turn off the image opening by double-click. If I want to edit images, I do this via the links panel.

Export to a local folder url beyond iCloud fails to pick up the full url
When I go File > Export > Export for Screens in Illustrator 23.1.1 (and for quite a few versions now) the local URL in 'Export to:' does not seem to want to register beyond the point at which the iCloud cloud icon appears in my folders. So a folder needs to be fully local on my macbook - otherwise I have to manually look up and type in the subfolders that I want to export to.

Toggling tabs does not refresh/display correct file.
When multiple files are open, toggling from one file to another (via tabs) does not always display the correct file.
I've only encountered this bug with CC 2019.
Each release = less usable + more bugs

Thai text is inconsistent between Illustrator 2017 21.1.0 and 2018 22.1 OSX 10.14.6
After opening and clicking on text created in 2017 accents are moved. Font Tahoma same version in both cases. See attached.
Adobe can you look at this bug please?
Thanks R

Using 'Paste in place' - it doesn't work as expected
If I create 20 blank art boards the same size and then create artwork on one, containing a background rectangle and a logo rectangle in one corner and then I use the paste in place command by using cmd+C on the selected items on art board 1 (the background and logo rectangles) and then use cmd+SHFT+V on each of those other art boards to accurately paste the items on each board it often either doesn't place, places incorrectly, can work out which art board is selected etc I have tried clicking on each of the art boards 'to activate' in…

Illustrator window is bordered with red
In some cases, Illustrator shows a red line around the window.
I run Illustrator 23.0.4 on MacOs Mojave 10.14.5
I don't want disable GPU performance to hide it, I will lose performance doing so.
I think it's a glitch, because if I press "F" two times, the red line it's gone.

Color panel switches from secondary display to the primary display
I run 2 monitors in Windows 7, most typically with my artboard window on the left (display 'A'), and a layout of panels on the right (display 'B').
Not sure whether it started with this immediately after installing 2019, but today, any click on a Fill/Stroke proxy, either the one in the Color panel, or the one at the bottom of the Tools panel, the Color panel instantly jumps from display B to (the same position on) display A.
So here's the normal state:
