2. Text Converted to Outlines Upon Copy in 2026 with Keyboard Maestro Installed

   Adobe Illustrator 2026 (30.0)
   macOS Sequoia 15.7.1
   Keyboard Maestro 11.0.4

   When copying a live text object in Adobe Illustrator 2026 (point type, area type, type on a path objects), pasting with CMD+V or Edit > Paste converts the text into outlines when Keyboard Maestro Mac automation software is running.

   Quitting Keyboard Maestro Engine stops the behavior so that copying and pasting gives live text in the pasted object.

   Disabling com.adobe.svg as a clipboard copy flavor also fixes the problem, allowing copy and paste to preserve live text instead of creating outlines.

   This problem does not occur in Illustrator 2025 (29.8.3) or 2024 (28.7.10). User's history usage anecdotally confirms that the problem did not occur in any version of Illustrator '22, '23, '24, or '25.

   The problem is not because of a macro (tested with every group and macro disabled). If the Keyboard Maestro Clipboard History monitor is running, copying live text in Adobe Illustrator 2026 converts that text to outlines.

   Developer of Keyboard Maestro reviewed the bug and confirmed user's decision to report it to Adobe.

   Temporary solution: exclude Adobe Illustrator 2026 from Keyboard Maestro's Clipboard History via the KM Settings.

3. PDF Export for Screens saving full document even thought multiple files selected

   When you 'Export for Screens' as a range or tick certain artboards to export as PDF. These exported PDFs opens the full document rather than just the selected artboard. This happens when you open an exported PDF artboard in Illustrator 2026, but if you open it in 2025 version it opens as it should.

4. Applying a material to an extruded object says it’s not enough RAM

   I apparently don't have enough RAM to do this. I'm trying to add a material to the border of the left file, it's a fill not a stoke... I have 96GB of RAM.... I am apparently using 26GB of memory. 70 Gb of RAM Should really be enough for almost anything I would think. Please let me know if there's a way I can use these tools if not I'll have to go back to my client and say "Adobe can't do it" once again.

6. Command+V not working in Pantone Connect

   I just had an automatic update for Illustrator version [30.0], and since then, copying the hex code and pasting with shortcut Command+V is not working in the Pantone Connect extension. It seems that it is working with a right click of the mouse, but does anyone have an idea why the shortcut is not working anymore, as this was way faster?
   I'm on Apple M4 Pro 24GB Version 15.6.1 (24G90).

   Done (Available in Beta)  ·  AdminEgor Chistyakov (Admin, Adobe Illustrator) responded

   This problem is reportedly fixed in the latest Beta Build 30.5.0.18. You can update and test if it’s truly gone.

   However, please not there are some known issues with this particular build:

   • Opening recent files from Home Screen Recent section is not working (opening recent files from File > Open Recent Files works fine).
   • Generative Expand does not open its own HUD when used after Generate Vector, Generative Shape Fill, or Sketch to Vector. Instead, the previous tool's HUD is displayed and Generative Expand remains inaccessible. Workaround: Ungroup the generative content first, then apply Generative Expand.
   • Half of Astute Graphics plugins can’t get loaded. Both teams are now aware of the problem.

   Comment back if the bug still persists for you.

9. Text style in a mess when editing text. They appear ok in Preview mode. I can't complete the task or job.

   I am trying to edit this text in illustrator 29.7.1. Each time a type, make an amendment to the existing text it scrambles all of the settings and messes everything up (please see screenshots of before and after). I've tried to output to PDF but this also displays in a mess. Please let me know if there is a fix so I don't have to abandon this job and start again. Thanks, D

12. Split Into Grid adds printable lines instead of guides

    In Split Into Grid window there's an option to "add guides". But instead of guides lines are added that have standard stroke — printable lines that are conveniently in neutral greenish color 0,1 pt stroke and look like guides so it's easy to miss that.

14. Spots and Globals are converted into process colors when included into Swatch Info

    If we pick several spot or global color swatches to display in Swatch Info, the resulting color chips won’t be using the actual swatches picked — these would become process color copies — while Ink Types are shown as 'Spot' for spots... which are not... and no information about some being 'Global'.

    I realize this connection would have to be monitored, refreshing cards when a swatch is changed...
    But this is what is expected. This is what scripts that offer a similar functionality do.

    If we choose to convert these into process colors, we can just can select one and press the button in the Color panel... yeah, it won’t work for several of these selected, but that’s another problem.

    No longer a problem in the latest release

15. Joining two paths completely ruins brush width/variable stroke width profiles

    1. Draw a path with a pressure-sensitive brush. Draw another one that begins near where the first one ends.
    2. Select the ends of both paths. Object > Join.

    3. Wonder why the resulting pressure profile bears no resemblance to what you had on screen before the join.

    4. Draw a path with a variable stroke width. Draw another one that begins near where the first one ends.

    5. Select the ends of both paths. Object > Join.

    6. Wonder why the resulting width profile bears no resemblance to what you had on screen before the join.

    I think it might be just grabbing the pressure/width profiles from the topmost stroke and applying that to the entire joined path. Which is not what I think anyone would expect, I feel like the expected behavior is that a new stroke has a pressure/width profile generated by appending the first path's profile to the second.

    I'm super surprised there isn't an entry for this in UserVoice that I can find. Maybe I'm just no good at searching this thing. Maybe there's a ton of bug reports in the old bug database from before uservoice. Remember that thing? Where it was just a form on Adobe's site that you could type stuff into with no idea if anyone ever saw it? Wikipedia tells me UserVoice launched in 2008, two years before variable-width strokes were introduced in 2010, but I dunno when Adobe started using it. And of course this behavior has existed for pressure-sensitive brushes since 1998 when brushes were first introduced back in Illustrator 8. I dunno when the Join tool first appeared, I started with Illustrator 8 and I assume it goes back to like v1 or 2.

    Anyway. Now there's a bug for this. I wrote it up because a new user just asked what they assumed was an incredibly stupid noob question on the Illustrator subreddit and I got to tell them that no, they're not missing a weird corner of the docs, Illustrator just bungles this incredibly basic operation because Adobe has had zero attention to detail for twenty-seven years.

    1. Draw a path with a pressure-sensitive brush. Draw another one that begins near where the first one ends.
    2. Select the ends of both paths. Object > Join.

    3. Wonder why the resulting pressure profile bears no resemblance to what you had on screen before the join.

    4. Draw a path with a variable stroke width. Draw another one that begins near where the first one ends.

    5. Select the ends of both paths. Object > Join.

16. Documents don't open

    If I create a new document the dialog appears and I select the option and hit OK. Then the screen does not show the document. Only a gray screen. The same happens when I try to open an existent document. I have to close and and open several times until it opens or create the document.

19. Eyedropper not working when object is within nested groups

    Illustrator V. 29.1
    MacOS Ventura 13.6.2

    I need to be able to direct select objects that are within nested groups and then eyedropper to change how only that object looks. This feature doesn't work correctly and I don't want to have to click + click + click + click + click to get into the isolated object for every single shape I need to do this on every day. See screen recording to better explain. Thank you.
