Accented characters in PDF not showing correctly
Imported PDF text has spurious spaces (and broken into different text blocks). In the source program the only difference is whether RTF is encoded using charset-encoding in the current code page (OK) or using unicode reference (like this). In PDF readers looks correct either way.

Scrollbar breaks using stylus (windows/wacom)
While I'm using a stylus, if I use the scrollbar, illustrator acts as if I haven't released from the scroll bar and continues to wildly scroll, and all other features including closing the program are inaccessible. This continues even if I tab out of the program and doesn't stop until I force quit illustrator.
2 votesHi ,
Thanks for reporting the issue, but we are unable to reproduce the issue at our end and would need more information such as the AI build with which the issue started, Wacom device configuration, and OS details of the machine where the issue is observed.

Not sure who angered Microsoft, but Adobe Apps not Working again!
It seems like every Tuesday, after Microsoft sports it's guerilla updates, Adobe Apps, especially Illustrator Beta and Illustrator 2024 stop working. They will launch, but won't stay open for long before they just disappear. And though it pretends to save your work, it doesn't. This is probably the fifth or sixth time this has happened.
Last time this happened, I had to uninstall the entire creative suite and run a special program to wipe my drives of all things Adobe then reinstall from scratch to get it to work. What a nightmare.

Export As SVG - incorrect size
I compared the results of the "Save As SVG" and "Export As SVG" commands.
I found that the "Export" option often produces incorrect sizes, especially with patterns containing a lot of fine details.The decimal point settings are the same in both cases.

Direct selection tool doesn't work 90% of the time
90% of the time when I use the direct selection tool (and I'm sure I am using the rght tool because the curser turns white as it should when this tool is selected) I can't manipulate anchors and instead am dragging the entire shape.

「連結」視窗中，選取「多個連結」並按「重新連結」鈕之後，圖片未更新
此次是要更新.ai檔內所有相同圖片的解析度，
因此於「連結」視窗，「多選圖片」並按「重新連結」。然而，先於photoshop調完解析度後，
以下兩種方式都 無法反映 更新後的解析度：1) photoshop內變更完檔案，ai自動跳出「是否更新連結？」視窗，點確認後、跑圖，圖片還是維持舊連結檔狀態
2)「連結」視窗中，選取「多個連結」並按「重新連結」鈕之後，跑圖，圖片還是維持舊連結檔狀態
最後用一個方法可以 正確更新 連結圖檔：
3) 於「連結」視窗點擊「單獨圖片」，重新連結、跑圖後是正確更新的連結檔解析度；但這等於需要一張一張點擊

画像トレースパネルでカラーモードをモノクロに設定するとカラーを透過のカラーピッカーが使えない
macOS13.6.7
Illustrator 28.6問題が発生したときに実行していた手順
1. 画像を配置し、選択した状態で「画像トレース」パネルを開く。
2. プレビューをチェックしカラーモードをグレースケールに設定する。
3. 詳細を展開しオプションの「カラーを透過」のチェックボックスをチェックする。
4. カラーを透過がアクティブになっているにも関わらずカラーピッカーが選択できない。想定していた結果
他のカラーモードのようにカラーピッカーで透過色を選択できる。実際の結果
カラーピッカーで透過色を選択できない。デフォルトでは白が透過色となっているためカラーを変更していない場合にチェックボックスをチェックした場合は白が透過されるが、他のカラーモードで透過色を選択した上でカラーモードをグレースケールに変更した場合、 透過色が以前のモードのまま保持されるため透過される部分がなくなる。EN

Inconsistent Print Results with Intertwine Tool
The Intertwine tool does not appear to have consistent results from screen to print. A number of images in which I used the tool appear perfectly fine on screen, and even when exported to different file types (such as jpg), but when they are printed directly from their native AI file, the intertwined areas create graphical abnormalities. I've provided one such example below. The right shows the Intertwine tool failing to show the latch plate in between the hook's base and the hook's tip. In the left image, I've corrected this using a transparency mask instead. Please investigate and fix.

Calligraphic brush renders improperly if Roundness is less than 10%
Calligraphic flat brush renders improperly (brush tip is S-shaped) when roundness is less than 10%. Was trying to do calligraphy with 5% flat tip in Illustrator when I noticed this problem, that creates a lot of cleanup. See images.

Default line stroke color needs to be black and no fill for line segment tool, it keeps reverting back to no fill/no stroke color
This has been going on for a very long time so I'm sure many others have seen this by now. I do A LOT of work using the line segment tool. Nearly 50% of the time I am using it, the stroke color or fill selections change on the tool. It needs to be set on default with no fill, black stroke color, with either .5 or 1 pixel (should be selectable in settings). Please for the love of anything... fix this silly problem.

Home Screen shows incorrect data at start of month
At the beginning of a month, the Home Screen reports inaccurate "last modified" dates on recently opened documents. For example, on 1st March, a document last opened on 28th February is reported as having been opened "1 month ago" instead of "1 day ago".

The menu does not respond well right after Illustrator launches
en_US
Immediately after starting Illustrator, the menu does not respond to clicks and only works once every two times. Also, the phenomenon occurs that opening a new document does not show up the first time. Focusing on another application and refocusing on Illustrator fixes the problem.
While investigating the cause, it seems to be triggered by the presence of an invalid plugin or its warning screen. Without it, it worked fine.
Steps to reproduce
- Put the invalid plugin into Illustrator's plugin folder
- Start Illustrator
- Click the File menu
Expected result
The File menu will open.
Actual result
Nothing happens. A…

Random delay when running script via command line
When you run a script via the command line, sometimes there is a pause between launch and execution. The duration of this pause is always different.
It would be nice if there was no pause at all.
