Direct Selection Tool on Control Handles Doesn't Work Properly After Puppet Warp
Normally, you can adjust a single control handle of an anchor point with the Direct Selection tool without affecting the other control handle. But after you perform a Puppet Warp on a shape, this is no longer the case. Using the Direct Selection tool on a control handle affects both handles simultaneously. In order to reproduce this bug, the object you're working on may have to be a group of objects. Here is a video of the problem: https://youtu.be/qZoJOQb0seI
This is in Illustrator 23.0.6 on a Mac.

Diagrams pasted from Excel (Office 365 version) to Adobe Illustrator on Mac cannot show correct font of numbers and characters
It seems that the original versions of Excel (such as Office 2013 and 2016) do not have this problem. However, diagrams pasted from Excel to clipboard is correct. So there may be some problem in transferring diagrams from latest Excel version.

Placing SVG object locks AI for >5 seconds
Hello,
On some AI installations, Placing an SVG file locks up AI for a 'long' time. Clicking makes the screen go black. After a relatively long wait, even for a trivial SVG file, the SVG object can be placed on the canvas. Placing a png does not show that slow down. On most machines this is not experienced
What could be the cause of this?

Illustrator 23.1 (64bit) hangs - hourly
Didn't have a problem with previous versions.
Updated to v23.1 (64bit) Windows 10 Home 1903 and regularly hangs.
Sometimes hangs while working. Usually hangs when opening a new file, particularly when already have a file open. The files I'm using are less than 1mb so shouldn't cause issue.1 vote -

Why is illustrator running so slow on my laptop?
Illustrator runs really slow on my laptop running windows 10. It is provided by my employer and is one of the fastest you can currently buy. Im running 16mb RAM.
A simple logo takes a minute or more to open. BUT when I take my laptop offline it seems to work alot quicker.
No such issues with InDesign or Photoshop.
So Illustrator seems to want to know everything I do and slows my workflow down massively. When I have a complicated peice of work I am waiting five minutes or more for it to either open or save. I save…1 vote -

Bad translation in French for Embed a Linked Image command
I wanted to draw your attention on a problematic/erratic translation in the french version of illustrator (formerly it was ok, up to CC) : when you want to incorporate/embed a linked image, you go to the links panel menu, and instead of having "incorporer l'image" (incorportae/embed the picture), the option is "image(s) incorporée(s)" which means "incorporatED images", which is wrong, and totally misleading/confusing as it means the same as the other option, saying "montrer les images incorporer" (show incorporated images).
You really should correct this… and reactivate the possibility to incorporate images just by double-clicking an image in the links…

Glyph rendering bug with non-empty space char on OT-SVG fonts
The space character is not rendered consistently when it includes an SVG glyph:
- The glyph is invisible by default
- But - as expected - it is visible in full color when moving the text object, and in greyscale version when switching to Outline mode

Resizing a new document window is broken
When creating a new document the widow goes full screen, when I try to resize using the bottom right corner to resize window, it automatically grows larger than the screen size and can't grab the corner... then when I do get the corner back on the screen trying to resize just doesn't work well, it’s very slow and largish and half the time it won't resize it jumps back to full or only partially resizes... never did this before and it’s a pain. I spend 10 min trying to get the window like I want it to be nearly every…

Fonts not updating on the fly
Copied from my forum inquiry that I eventually solved on my own...
I am a type designers & I use illustrator in building & testing fonts as part of my production workflow. I use the same array of font apps along with my cc2019 suite on 2 different machines. One is a mac mini one is an imac, both are on the latest mac os.
On the mac mini, with Illustrator open I can see changes to a font immediately reflected in the document. In other words if I replace a .otf or .ttf font file installed at mac hd/library/fonts…

Free Distort doesn't apply to certain gradient strokes
I was working on a type effect when I realized the Free Distort filter (found under Effect > Distort & Transform > Free Distort) doesn't apply when the selected object uses a stroke with a gradient that is applied along or across the stroke. Is this intentional? I hope it isn't since it doesn't seem intentional.
Here's how I did it.
Create a rectangle. Make sure it has a fill color. Then add a stroke and pick a gradient. Change the stroke style to be either the second or third option. Then apply the Free Distort filter to the object…1 vote -
Version 23.0.3 Adobe PDF Preset / Transparency Flattener Preset "Convert All Text to Outlines" Not Working
In all previous versions of Illustrator and InDesign, when saving a PDF, I have been able to set my PDF settings to convert all text to outlines by checking "Convert All Text To Outlines" in my Adobe PDF preset. Since my recent update to 23.0.3, this feature is no longer working properly. The setting is still an option, however, upon save/export of the PDF, text is not converted to outlines as it previously was.
I have reached out to customer support for this issue and have been informed that this issue is "expected behavior of the software".
How is this…

New document window sticks to single space when working in macOS
When you start a new document, if you switch spaces in macOS Mojave, the new document window sticks to the original space it was opened in instead of following the user from space to space. This can lead one to think that Illustrator is frozen or stuck as the workspace is locked when the new document window is open. Double clicking Illustrator on the dock does not switch the user back to the space the new document window is in.
