  1. Falsche Darstellung von Flächen im Kreisdiagramm

    Ich lade die in der Anlage gezeigten, abwärts sortierten Zahlen aus einer Excel-Tabelle in die Tabelle der Adobe Ilustrator-Diagrammfunktion.

    Dennoch generiert Illustrator mir daraus ein Diagramm, das eindeutig bei den letzten Werten falsche Teilgrößen anzeigt.

    Ist das ein Bug? Oder zumindest ein bekannter Fehler, den man irgendwie einfach umgehen kann?

  2. パネル等のテキストについて「全てを選択」できない。

    1.Mac Sonoma 14.6.1 Illustrator 31.0
    2.線幅パネルから線幅の数値を変えるために、数字付近へカーソルを当ててからcommand+Aを押した
    3.数字が全選択される
    4.何も変化がない
    5.スクリーンショットは線パネルのみです。(変化がないので伝わらないと思いますが…)

    ●今回のケースで他にも調べましたが、パネル系のテキストフィールドにて同様のことが起こりました。
    (パネル:文字、段落、コントロールバー/レイヤーの名前の変更[直接・レイヤーオプション]など)
    ●新しく導入された「AIアシスタント(beta)内の、テキストフィールドでは問題ありませんでした。」

  4. Move dialog keyboard shortcut for Copy works sometimes

    The Move dialog that appears under Object→Transform→Move menu has a keyboard shortcut for the Copy option. If the Option key (macOS) is held when pressing Return/Enter key, the Copy operation is executed instead of Move.

    This shortcut only works if the UI focus is in the Horizontal field, or any of the checkboxes or pushbuttons are focused. If the Vertical, Distance, or Angle fields are focused, the Copy operation does not occur -- the objects are moved even though the Option key is held.

  6. PDF export loses unrelated artwork when document contains gradient strokes

    Environment
    macOS Golden Gate; Illustrator 29.x and 30.x, including 30.8.2.

    Summary
    Saving a document as PDF can omit gradient strokes and other artwork. In a simplified test, some gradient strokes and two images disappeared from the PDF even though they were visible in Illustrator.

    Steps to reproduce with the supplied test
    1. Open teste.ai in Illustrator and compare the artwork with the reference screenshot. The artwork contains four groups of three gradient strokes and four color chart images, with images positioned in front of and behind strokes.
    2. Save the document as an Adobe PDF.
    3. Compare the PDF with…

  7. Illustrator artboard refuses to show.

    I’ve been experiencing this issue in Illustrator for about a year, and it still hasn’t been fixed. I’ve uninstalled and reinstalled the application several times, updated Windows and my graphics card drivers, and tried every troubleshooting step I can think of. I’ve toggled GPU settings and adjusted options in the Performance menus, but nothing has worked.

    Whenever I open Illustrator and load an artboard, it doesn’t appear. The same thing happens when I open an SVG or an image: the artboard remains blank. As a result, I can’t edit or make changes to vector artwork or images in Illustrator.

  8. GPU Preview hides black faded background in live vector envelope; CPU Preview renders correctly

    Illustrator 30.8.2 incorrectly displays a live vector envelope containing clipping masks, transparency and a gradient fade in GPU Preview. The black background disappears, while the white pattern and black lettering remain visible.

    Switching to View → Preview on CPU (Cmd+E) immediately restores the background without changing the artwork. Exported PNGs also retain the correct black background and fade.

    System:
    • Illustrator 30.8.2
    • macOS 27.2, build 26B123
    • MacBook Pro, Apple M1, 8 GB RAM
    • CMYK document

    Steps to investigate:
    1. Open the attached Illustrator sample.
    2. Locate the live envelope below the empty artboard. It is intentionally on…

  9. Missing items when saving as PDF, when exporting as PDF, and when placing .ai files in InDesign

    I have a significant problem with items that are missing from my .ai document with any of the following:

    • save as PDF
    • export as PDF
    • Place an .ai file in InDesign

    I have tried all of the various workarounds I've found online, including turning off Save in Background and Export in Background. I have tried Flatten Artwork. I have tried moving the items into other layers. I have even tried making a new document and copying/pasting the affected pages into that document.

    The items are even missing in the QuickView file preview. ... But all of the relevant items are…

  10. Texto desbordado

    Estoy usando Illustrator 2026 Versión 30.8.2 y la aplicación de para las tipografías RightFont 2026 Versión 10.2.1 (ambas actualizadas) y cuando creo un archivo que contiene cajas de texto con un área específica y utilizo 1 sola tipografía en Bold para los títulos y Regular para el párrafo general y solamente agrego 1 caracter numérico con desplazamiento vertical (ya que expresa un exponente), al guardar el archivo, lo hace de forma correcta, pero al cerrarlo y abrirlo al día siguiente, las cajas de texto aparecen con el texto desbordado a pesar de mantener las mismas características de tracking y escala…

  11. Severe object dragging lag in Illustrator 30.8.2 after macOS 27 update

    Environment: macOS 27, Adobe Illustrator 30.8.2

    Problem: Since upgrading to macOS 27, dragging objects with the mouse or trackpad no longer works smoothly in Illustrator. The cursor moves normally, but the selected object remains stationary for several seconds before suddenly jumping to a new position.

    Steps to reproduce:

    Open Illustrator and create a new document.

    Draw a rectangle or create a text object.

    Select the object and attempt to drag it with the mouse or trackpad.

    Expected: The object follows the cursor continuously and without delay.

    Actual: The cursor moves normally, but the object does not respond immediately and subsequently…

  12. Ai files not opening on the first attempt

    Illustrator sometimes goes into this status when trying to open an Ai file. The first time you hit open it just doesn't respond or recognize the action, the second time you do it it tries to but gets locked into this status and can only be solved by closing and reopening the app. I recently updated my version.

  13. Embedding a placed file no longer triggers the profile mismatch dialog (changed between 28.7.7 and 30.8.2)

    Environment:

    Illustrator 30.8.2, Windows: dialog does NOT appear
    Illustrator 2024 28.7.7, Windows: dialog appears
    Illustrator CS6 16.0.0, Windows: dialog appears
    I do not have 2025 installed, so the change happened somewhere between 28.7.7 and 30.8.2.

    Colour settings used (unchanged for years, verified before testing):
    Preserve embedded profiles for both RGB and CMYK. Ask When Opening and Ask When Pasting both enabled. Saved settings file still selected, nothing was reset by an update.

    Summary:
    Placing a file as a link and then embedding it used to raise the profile mismatch dialog when the incoming file carried a different CMYK profile than…

  14. Excessive Illustrator file size

    I recently updated to latest Illustrator version, and for some unknown reason files are now saved with a way too much size.

    For example - a blank file, brand new, is more than 1.5 MB and a file with 4 very simple vector elements is more than 12MB.

  16. macOS 27: window can't be resized from top edge/corners - drag only moves the window

    1. OS: macOS 27.2 (also on 27.0.1), MacBook Pro 16" built-in display. Same with mouse and trackpad.
    2. Illustrator 30.8.2 (2026).
    3. Steps: hover over the top edge or a top corner of the Illustrator application window until the resize cursor appears, then click and drag.
    4. Expected: the window resizes. Actual: the window is moved instead of resized. Bottom edge, bottom corners and side edges resize correctly. Resizing from all edges works fine in Apple apps (Finder, Safari) on the same Mac, and the problem persists with third-party utilities (Logi Options+, etc.) closed and window tiling disabled, so it seems specific to how…

  18. Color pallete stroke color

    When working in the color palette in CMYK mode, if I have the foreground color selected and drag a black swatch (0,0,0,100) onto the stroke color (which is positioned behind the fill color), the stroke color—once selected and brought to the front—ends up being defined by all four color components. This does not happen if I apply that same black color to the stroke while it is already in the foreground position.

  19. Align - distribute spacing NOT WORKING with anchor points within a shape

    When I select some anchor points within a shape, I'm unable to use Distribute Spacing (it's just grayed out). This didn't used to be the case, and shouldn't be the case.

    Steps to repeat:
    1. create a shape with several anchor points
    2. select some of the points
    3. Distribute Spacing is grayed out in the align panel

    The expected result is that I can distribute spacing of anchor points within a single object. I used to do this ALL THE TIME. Please fix immediately

    I'm using windows 11, illustrator version 30.8.2

  20. ブレンドパネルのシフトの数値が正しい数値を拾わない

    macOS26.6/imac27inch/Intel/32GB/1TB
    Illustrator ver.30.8.2

    Step to Reproduce
    1. 2つの図形を用意しブレンドを行う。
    2. 複製を行い2つのブレンドされた図形を並べる。
    3. 一方はブレンドパネルでアピアランスのシフトを90%程度にシフトさせる。もう一方はシフトを50%のままにする。
    4. シフトが90%のものを選択している状態から50%のものを選ぶとシフトスライダーは90%のままで正しい数値を表示しない。

    期待する結果
    シフトが50%で設定されたオブジェクトでもシフト量を正しく表示する。

    実際の結果
    シフトが50%のオブジェクトのみ旧来のブレンドオブジェクトとして扱われるためか、シフトのパラメータを正しく読み込まない。

    Steps to Reproduce
    1. Create two shapes and blend them.
    2. Duplicate the blended shapes and arrange them side by side.
    3. In the Blend panel, set the Shift value for one shape to approximately 90%. Leave the Shift value for the other shape at 50%.
    4. When we switch from selecting the object with a 90% shift to the one with a 50% shift, the Shift slider remains at 90% and does not display the correct value.

    Expected Result
    The shift…
