3. CEPHtmlEngine keeps macOS awake

   CEPHtmlEngine erroneously keeps macOS awake by setting PreventUserIdleSystemSleep

   See details below, CEPHtmlEngine is unnecessarily keeping macOS awake using the power management API and asserting PreventUserIdleSystemSleep, on this device it has been asserting and renewing its assertion for 170 hours.

   This presents a massive physical security risk to enterprise customers as it defeats IT controlled sleep/screensaver/walkaway preferences to lock the computer.

5. Exporting PDFs makes a single file instead of many for each artboard

   I am experiencing an issue exporting PDFS under export for screens. I have 2 artboards which I have named, but when I export it only exports 1 artwork and names the PDF the actual file name instead of the artboard name. Other file types, png, jpg, etc seem to be working but not PDFs.

6. Documents preview not updated properly in Indesign

   When I save an Illustrator file, import it into Indesign, then make changes to the file, save it again and update the link in Indesign, some parts are not updated in the preview (see attached image). This doesn't happen every time, seemingly at random.

   I have resolved this by first saving as an older version and then again as latest version, but that's not a real solution.
   Somebody told me to uncheck 'Save in background' in settings, this also solved the problem but again, is not a real solution.

   I have this problem simultaneously with the (already known) problem where Indesign shows all object layers of all artboards when viewing/hiding specific object layers.

   I'm using Illustrator 30 on Sonoma.

7. Clearly inform about specific words "violating" community standards when generating art

   I think when 'one or more words' violate the guidelines, Illustrator should clearly inform us what words these are exactly.
   I guess this can be used for a bad cause, like to gather the database of restricted words... but I don’t understand why normal users should suffer because of this.

9. Color assets from Libraries cannot be applied to objects in Illustrator 30.0 (2026)

   After updating to Illustrator 2026, clicking a color swatch from the Libraries panel no longer applies the color to selected objects. The color swatch highlights but does not change the object’s fill or stroke.

   • Drag-and-drop from Libraries to objects or the Swatches panel does nothing.
   • Issue occurs with fill and/or stroke targeted.
   • Behavior worked normally in previous Illustrator versions

   Steps to reproduce:
   1. Open Illustrator 2026.
   2. Open the Libraries panel (Window → Libraries).
   3. Select an object on the artboard.
   4. Click a color swatch in Libraries.

   Expected result:
   The object’s fill or stroke should change to the selected color.

   Actual result:
   No color change occurs; color cannot be applied in any way.

   Workarounds tested:
   - Restarted app and system.
   - Tried Alt/Option-drag, doesn’t work.
   - Tried creating new Library and new document, same issue.
   - Legacy Libraries panel unavailable by default.

   Environment:
   - Illustrator 2026 (build 30.0)
   - macOS (Sequoia 15.6.1)
   - Creative Cloud Libraries active

11. The issue of selecting tools to move lines

12. Repeat objects ignore Select > Inverse command

    Take a look at the GIF attached and the file.

    I select the magenta square and use Select > Inverse to select everything but the square.
    It select the circles, the black one and the white one (inside of Radial Repeat) — all correct.

    Now I try Select > Inverse one more time, expecting to get the opposite result, only the magenta square selected.
    But the Radial Repeat object stays selected.
    It must not.

    These applies to other repeat types as well.

15. Using Pen tool does auto switch to add or remove points when cursor is hoving over lines or anchors.

    I'm not sure if this is a new feature or not, but when using the regular pen tool, it usually displays the + or - symbol when it's over anchor points or on lines to indicate whether to add or remove. It doesn't do this now, and I have to manually switch between the 'Remove Point' or 'Add Point' version on the toolbar.

16. Saving a PDF with All Printer’s Marks only works twice

    Hello,
    I'm using version 30.0 on a PC.

    I need to save my files for printing as PDFs with crop marks. When I check the "All Printer’s Marks" option and save as a PDF, it works the first time, but the second time, and always on the third, I get an error message. This error message says, "This document was saved successfully, but an error occurred after saving. Close and then reopen the document."
    I then have to close Illustrator and reopen everything, giving me two opportunities to save new PDF documents with print marks. Then, on the third document, the same thing happens again; I have to close Illustrator, and so on.

    This is a very annoying problem for my work. Am I the only one experiencing this? I didn't have this problem in previous versions. It must be a bug.

    Thank you for your help.

19. All options within Window > Type are greyed out when 'Enable Wacom' option is enabled

    Running Illustrator 2026 (version 30.0) on a M4 Pro Mac Mini. Access to all Type options are greyed out (accessed via Window > Type). I noticed that, in the preferences, under Devices, there was an 'Enable Wacom' option, which was checked. (I don't have a Wacom tablet, though I do have an XP-Pen drawing display, though it was not plugged in, and all drivers and extensions were disabled, and I've only used it with Illustrator 2025.) However, I unchecked the option, restarted Illustrator, and all text options were available again.
