Illustrator automatically changing colors
When you place image (RGB) into Illustrator it would preserve the color profile. Now it changes it automatically and this seems to be a common problem if you search the internet. Fix it as it makes this program far less useful.

Surface Pen Stylus Pressure paintbrush doesn't work
The stylus pressure for the paintbrush tool in the touch workspace on a Microsoft Surface seems to work occasionally but not always. The Surface Pen is connected (Bluetooth), I can get stylus pressure to work sometimes and not others. Sometimes in the same session! Or if I flip to the regular desktop workspace it'll work occasionally. I cannot figure out what the key ingredient is. It seems very random. I can also get it to recognize pressure if I enable "constrain drawing 45deg" but not if I disable it. How does that make sense? Must be a bug. Please address…

Smooth Blend Tool Broken
On the Mac OS, when blending between two shapes using the smooth blend tool, 7/10 times the blend will not be smooth but have one step between the shapes. I can instead create lots of steps as a work-around, but the designated tool does not work. If the shapes are separated far enough, more (but few) steps will appear.
In the images below, you will see an attempted blend between a dark green gradient square, and a light green square. I am using the smooth blend tool.

Latest Version just quits on its own
Luckily I was in front of my computer as it happened so I could save the current files that were open but without needing an update to Illustrator or the OS, the app suddenly just started a quit sequence on its own.
OS is Mac 11.2 Big Sur. Illustrator Version: 25.12 votes -
AI loses GPU support when using rulers or accessing grouped elements
Hello @ Adobe!
Both of my macs (Big Sur, latest updates) show the same reproducible bug with Adobe Ai Version 25 (incl. 25.2): GPU support works just fine when I open a new document and start from scratch. Turning on Rulers or accessing grouped elements by double click instantly turns off GPU support wich I cannot turn back on. After that Ai responds slowly and overall it’s no pleasure to work with. To fix this I need to make sure that in a document all rulers and guides are switched off/deleted. With these measures I can reopen the document and…4 votes -
Pdf open in AI different than Adobe Acrobat Reader
Sometimes, when I open a pdf in adobe acrobat reader, everything is ok. Image is aligned correctly.
But, when i open same pdf in Adobe Illustrator, the image is not correctly placed in Artwork bounds.
- Work around to solve this: Object – Artboards – Fit to Artwork Bounds
Why is it always shown correctly in Adobe Acrobat reader, but not in Adobe Illustrator.1 vote -
Pantone Connect
Hi there,
When trying to load the Pantone Connect Extension I see a black window instead of the swatches and other features of the extension. The only message I see is a purple link that says “reload plugin” which has no effect when I click on it. This was the case for the 2020 version when I tried it today, so I updated all my apps, thinking this might help. However, the same error occurs with the 2021 versions of Photoshop, Illustrator and Indesign. When I last used the extension in summer last year, it worked great… has there been…

Adobe Illustrator 25.2While launching Adobe Illustrator, a window appears warning of an unsupported video driver although the exported report (txt-file) does not show any problem. All drivers are up-to-date.
22 votesI am happy to share that we have fixed this bug in our latest release – 25.2.3 which is available worldwide now.
Going forward, our goal is to fix as many top User-Voice bugs as possible and as frequently as possible. Given the nature of the fixes, some of the bugs will take a longer time to fix, but we are on it.
You can update to the latest release using Creative Cloud desktop App: https://helpx.adobe.com/in/creative-cloud/help/creative-cloud-updates.html

Kerning not working between first two characters of any word
No matter what I do, I can't adjust the kerning between the first two characters of any word in illustrator. The rest of the word can be spaced just fine, just not between the the first two letters. Please help, this is sort of an essential duty of this software.

Select Next Object Below
Running Windows 10 (64-bit) and the latest version of Adobe Illustrator. The bug I am experiencing is the shortcut to Select Next Object Below (Alt+Ctrl+[) is not working properly. Neither is the Select Next Object Above, nothing new is selected when I press the buttons, it remains on my already selected layer which is neither the top most or bottom most.

Can't place circle or square in middle of other circle or square.
On circle tool.
1) Draw a circle
2) Go to the middle of the circle to draw another cirlce.
3) It does not let me. (Changes to some selection tool)This did not used to happen in older versions of illustrator. When it changed I just lived with it, but working on a file now where I have to create a bunch of objects in middle of other objects and its driving me mad. Anyway to revert it back to the way it used to be? (probably worked fine in about 2010)

Your software keeps crashing
With every new release your software becomes more unstable and unusable. There are alternatives out there that are way more inexpensive and soon might be better. And if you don't thinks giants can't fall. look around you.

art brush direction
I created a new art brush. When applied to a stroke it rotates 90 degrees. The same bug was reported by another user in July 2020. How many months will it take to fix this?

Instead of adding features, fix what's already broken and been ignored.
Since the launch of V25 ( 2021 )
-The Surface Dial does not work
-The properties panel is all screwed up when trying to select a number in a field.. you cannot just change one digit
-The shear panel does not remember the angle applied anymore.
-Scaling with multiple monitors is none existent. ( use the resolution from the monitor Ai is open in , NOT from the display set as main.. Apply the smart scaling like you did with Photoshop )1 vote -

Illustrator 2021 (25.1.0) slows, freezes, crashes every 1-3 hours.
I have tried to use Illustrator 25.1.0 on 3 different laptops, ALL instances resulted in the same problem. The application will perform normally for a while, then at some point, typically between 1-3 hours of constant use, the function you are asking for via mouse input will freeze. (examples: moving a text box or shape, highlighting text, etc.) Sometimes the freeze will be preceded by a slight slow down in responsiveness. Once there is a freeze, the menu pull downs are inoperable too, so you can't ask it to save. When it freezes, a recovery file may or may not…
