Saving as PDF with no editing capabilities should not allow you to edit
Currently, if you are working on an AI file, and then choose File / Save as / PDF (and select PDF output options that have NO editing capabilities), once the PDF is saved it then remains open.
The bug is, that although the PDF is set with no editing capabilities - the file will still allow you to make changes and add items outside the Artboard area.
The problem with this is that once you save and close. if you open the file again - there is no way to access the content outside the Artboard area.

Freeform gradients become uneditable
I actually don't know if this is a feature request or a bug report, but I can't edit freeform gradients after I deselect the object with the gradient and then come back to it. When I come back to an object with a freeform gradient, using the gradient tool, the mouse pointer gets a little "no" symbol next to it (Wikipedia says it's called a general prohibition sign) and I can't see, let alone select and edit, any of the stops of the gradient. Is this a bug, or am I supposed to not be able to edit these? If…

Pattern Editing Mode Swatch Width and Height max out at 4000px
Pattern Editing mode lets the user create swatch tiles over 4000px, but does not give you the size of the tile over 4000px. I noticed this first with rectangular pattern that was forcing my computer to crash on edit. I confirmed this behavior by opening a new file creating a 60 in by 60 in square. Pattern was created fine, but the width and height of the swatch still maxed out at 4000px. AI 2018 22.1

Mobile Adobe Draw open in Desktop App (AI) does not work
Opening in Adobe Desktop Apps does not work in iOS Adobe Draw. There is the option to save as a PSD in cloud files, but NOT to save as an AI. Highly disappointing for tablet integration.
Also, two finger gestures are slow and interpret commands poorly.

undo is broken
Undo is just wonky. I hit Undo, and rather than just stepping back one step, it jumps several actions backward, and the Redo steps can't even get back to where I was. I wish I could provide more info, but it's just jacked, so I can't trace the problem.

Selection tool automatically nudging object when clicked.
When (v) or (a) are used and a vector line or object are clicked on with the mouse, the object automatically jumps/nudges right. Multiple clicks produces multiple jumps/nudges.

Expanding a Live Paint Object Changes Dimensions
Reporting a very frustrating Illustrator bug that has been there since version CS6 at least.
There is a bug concerning the Live Paint tool. Live Paint objects need to be expanded most of the time to develop them further in Illustrator. However, after expanding, the dimensions of the shapes get distorted and this renders the Live Paint tool completely useless for precise drawings or illustrations.
I hope something can be done to eradicate this bug as it extensively hinders workflow of many projects that need to be developed with Illustrator.
Thank you.
P.S. The same happens not only with imported…

Center points are not visible
Guide objects have lost their center points. I have "Show Center" turned on in the Attributes panel and "Show Edges" turn on, and still, the Center-Points are not visible on object guides.
Object guides used to all have center-points showing all the time, as long as the guides were turned on. Now the center-points are missing.

Illustrator CC2019 23.0.3 crashes on save ONLY WHEN connected to Internet
Every time I attempt to save an Illustrator file, it freezes and I get the spinning wheel, to the point where I have to force quit. After I force quit and reopen, all my preferences are reset to default.
I've attempted saving on Dropbox, iCloud, my external hard drive, and my local hard drive - it all freezes. The only time it doesn't freeze is when I disconnect from the Internet, and at that point I can save literally anywhere I want.
This happens LITERALLY every single time. I've gotten to a point where whenever I work on Illustrator, I've…

Version 23.0.3 Adobe PDF Preset / Transparency Flattener Preset "Convert All Text to Outlines" Not Working
In all previous versions of Illustrator and InDesign, when saving a PDF, I have been able to set my PDF settings to convert all text to outlines by checking "Convert All Text To Outlines" in my Adobe PDF preset. Since my recent update to 23.0.3, this feature is no longer working properly. The setting is still an option, however, upon save/export of the PDF, text is not converted to outlines as it previously was.
I have reached out to customer support for this issue and have been informed that this issue is "expected behavior of the software".
How is this…

HDTV 1080 preset has a PAR of 1.33
When the HDV 1080 and HDTV 1080 document presets were combined the HDTV pixel aspect ratio never changed from 1.33 to 1. The HDTV 720 has the proper square PAR, but the 1080 still has the old HDV one. This is only a cosmetic issue, as it affects the AI ruler, but not the shapes created or when art is imported into after effects, but it is still wrong when you're trying to measure distances using the Guide Ruler.

Variable Font Rendering Distorts Master
I'm getting some weird things happening with a 4-axis font I'm working on.
Illustrator seems to mangle the outlines for some of the masters. I realize this font is doing some weird stuff, but hoping for some clarification if it's a bug in Illustrator or my font. It appears correctly on the web though, on Axis Praxis(Chrome).
I'm attaching the ttf. It only has an 'H' glyph present. If it's helpful, there's more information about the typeface and intentions at the link below. This issue is related to an upcoming version which isn't available yet. https://www.futurefonts.xyz/scribble-tone/whoa
