The "HDV 1080" preset needs fixing
The "HDV 1080" preset resolution is 1920x1080. Small point, but the resolution of HDV is 1440x1080, so the naming of it is kinda wrong. I think in Photoshop, AE & Premiere, it's referred to as the "HDTV 1080" preset, so I think it's probably a mistake/typo by someone at Adobe.
Also, the preset gives you an extra artboard which is 14400 x 14400 px for some reason (I imagine it's also a bug), so when you try to export your file, it always defaults to exporting this artboard unless you delete it. Again, small thing but clearly a mistake and…

Allow Shift + arrows in an input field to always add 10 (like in Photoshop) instead of rounding up to a 10 first
In illustrator if you change sizes using shift + arrows in the top bar, it rounds up to the nearest 10 and then goes up in 10s. In photoshop it doesn't round up just increases by 10.
I think it would be better to be able to choose which mode to use as sometimes I prefer either depending on what I am doing.

Adobe Ilustrator CC 2017.1.0 Release
I have a 93in x 117in artboard which I am trying to print to PDF. I go to File > Print and choose "Adobe PDF" as printer. Illustrator starts saving the file then prompts me to say, "Can't print the illustration. File I/O error has occured while it's printing."
Please help.

Kerning Font Characters (Letters) Causes Cursor to Jump Around
While kerning letters in a statement, each time I press the up arrow to give more space or to press the down arrow to shrink space between letters, the cursor jumps to the second line in some random spot. I have to move the cursor back each time I press the up arrow and down arrow. This is definitely a bug.

Non-persistant Align To bug is back, Constant Crashes, Etc.
Non-persistant Align To bug is back, Constant Crashes, Etc. And, I had to reset ever preference after upgrading AI. I don't understand. I was given a fix for AI to install, then the update for AI has the same bugs and whatever. Why Does AI crash all the time, now? It's like, oh no, I did something, time for AI to crash. Why don't you all observe the application being used for something besides overlaying circles?

Swatches disappear
I've been experiencing this phenomena in which my swatches would disappear every now and then. One day, I'll have all the default swatches available in the swatch menu, other days, it'll only be the color white.

In CC2017 when you were resizing an image you could check its ppi, in CC2018 this is not possible. I checked in info panel with the image selected but this information is not even there.

Applescript convert to paths deletes image used as transparency mask
Since Illustrator 21.1.0 (okay before) there is an problem with Applescript command "convert to paths (every text frame of current document)"
If the text has an image as a transparency mask the script will delete the image. This does not happen if I do this manually within Illustrator. The problem still exists with the latest version of Illustrator.

Pen Tool - Arrowhead
No objects selected, Pen Tool equipped.
Stroke settings: 2 pt, arrowhead #5 selected for end conditionBug: Place first point and the arrowhead on the end condition reverts to blank (no arrowhead)
Workaround: Resellecting the arrowhead after placing the first point returns the line's behavior to what is expected: arrowhead trailing on the last point drawn.

Text and Objects Randomly Rotating
When I move text or an object, I will always notice they get slightly rotated. It's hard for the eye to see it sometimes, but the guide lines will show that things get slightly rotated sometimes for no reason.
2 votesMost probably Constrain Angle in Preferences > General is not zero.
Read more about this parameter here, in 'Rotate the x and y axes of a document' section.

Align Stroke isn't allowing me to place stroke on outside or inside of line on certain items.. Both options are greyed out.
Since latest update, Align Stroke isn't allowing me to place stroke on outside or inside of the line on certain items. I'm noticing this on both text and vector objects with "holes".

Clipping path in psd file does't work in Illustrator.
On macOS Sierra (Illustrator CC 2018).
Clipping path of psd file does't work in Illustrator CC 2018.
The full of the psd image was shown in Illustrator, ignoring its clipping path.
Same problem has occured in older versions of Illustrator (probably CC or later).There are two conditions for this problem to occur.
One is that the name of the clipping path has Japanese characters.
And the other is that a Mac's system language is set to English.As a test, I tried to change my Mac's system language to Japanese from English, this problem was solved.

Pasting non-English text from Word
v. 22.0.0
iMac 2017 High SierraPasting some Russian or Chinese text from Word, in my case, and then trying to change the font, collapses the font samples popup menu so I am unable to do it.
I figured it was some formatting the text had from the word file because the same scenario but with unformatted text from TextEdit app, didn't trigger the bug.
Still it is very frustrating having to copy my texts to TextEdit first!
