  2. Morisawa Fontsの和文バリアブルフォントDriveFluxが使えない

    いつのバージョンからかMorisawa Fontsの和文バリアブルフォントDriveFluxが急に使えなくなりました。macOS 15.6、Illustrator 2024 29.7.1を使用しています。2024の最初の方は使えてたんですが、どこかのマイナーバージョンアップで急に表示されなくなってしまいました。2025でも使えません。モリサワに相談したところ「こちらではどうしようもないのでAdobeさんに相談してください」とのことでした。ちなみにMonotypeの和文バリアブルフォントは問題ありません。ご対応お願いします。

  3. AI2025 v29.7.1 bug: SVG 1.1 is not accurately rendering

    AI2025 v29.7.1 bug: SVG 1.1 is not accurately rendering vector files. Even upping the decimal places, it's downsampling vectors and oversimplifying more detailed curves. Reverting to SVG 1.0 works fine. Please fix this!

  4. Dimensions of newly created objects have numerous decimal places and don’t get adjusted afterwards

    1. After leaving the computer on for a week with software running in the background, when trying to draw a new rectangle, the dimensions will show numerous decimal places. Moreover, when attempting to adjust the dimensions afterward, the values will jump erratically.

    2. The background backup process of the software occupies main operational resources, resulting in lag.

  5. Gaussian Blur preview is slow to calculate

    Gaussian Blur is just so difficult to use, and preview NEVER works.

    When it's activated, to make a change on the objects or font that it is applied to, requires that I always turn it off first and turn it back on later. There is always a long delay for it to appear. The Gaussian blur needs to be redesigned so it is as dynamic and powerful as the feature in Photoshop.

  6. Keyboard shortcuts for text formatting (kerning, tracking, leading, font size) no longer work in Illustrator 29.7.1

    These also don't work:

    Increase or decrease leading: Option + Up or Down Arrow (horizontal text) or Right or Left Arrow (vertical text)

    Increase or decrease kerning and tracking: Option + Right or Left Arrow (horizontal text) or Up or Down Arrow (vertical text)

  7. Scale Tool won't deselect

    After scaling a pattern within a shape using shift + back quote key you cannot deselect to accept the changes to the patterns scale. I cannot click on any other tool to get out of the glitch. It only stops when I press control + alt + delete.

  8. Properties panel fields don’t accept numeric input until focus resets (MacBook Pro, Illustrator 2025, macOS Sequoia 15.5)

    On my MacBook Pro (2023) running macOS Sequoia 15.5 with Illustrator 2025, I’m running into a recurring focus bug in the Properties panel numeric fields (Width, Height, Stroke Weight, etc.).

    Steps to reproduce:
    1. Select an object.
    2. Click once in the Width (W) or Height (H) field in the Properties panel.
    • The field highlights, but no blinking text cursor appears.
    3. Attempt to type a number.
    • Input is ignored — Illustrator interprets the keystrokes as shortcuts instead of text.
    4. Workaround:
    • Open the Transform panel (Window > Transform) and type numbers there.
    • After doing this,…

  9. Illustrator randomly substitutes fonts even though they are installed (works fine in older versions)

    In the latest version of Adobe Illustrator, I often experience random font substitution issues when opening older files. The fonts are properly installed in my system, but Illustrator does not recognize them correctly.

    For example, if I copy the same AI file 10 times and open each copy, Illustrator displays different random font substitutions each time. However, when I open the same files in an older version of Illustrator, the fonts display correctly without any issues.

    This indicates that the problem is not caused by missing fonts, but rather by how the new Illustrator version handles font data in older…

  10. Impossible to enter color values into Color panel

    When I try to enter numerical values into the Color panel, I can enter the first and sometimes the second number, but when I tab over or click on the next field, all of the fields go blank and the cursor switches back to the first field.

  11. Perspective Selection tool

    Moving an object I want to put in perspective leaves an afterimage, what does not disappear and contains parts of the background.

  12. Objects just vanish when rasterizing inside a clipping mask

    Okay, this is seriously annoying. In the latest Illustrator on Windows, if you rasterize inside a clipping mask, poof — your objects are gone.

    Steps (super easy to test):

    Draw a bunch of objects and group them.
    Make a shape and apply a clipping mask.
    Double-click to go inside the group.
    Select everything and rasterize.
    And just like that... everything disappears.

    If you leave even one object out of the selection, they don’t disappear.

    But when you select all → gone.

    If I only rasterize one object, or part of them, it works fine. But if I select all? Illustrator…

  13. Illustrator uses 100% CPU, sustained, even when idle and no documents open

    I've observed many times that when Illustrator (29.7.1, on macOS 15.6) is idle in the background, it's running a 100% CPU task. Even if I close all of its open documents, the CPU use is at 100% CPU, and stays there until I quit.

  14. "Learn the tools" popups appearing on their own

    The Learn popups for the tools on the tool bar keep appearing on their own whenever I am in the application. I have to wipe my mouse over them for them to disappear, just for them to keep popping up when I am using Illustrator. This continues to happen the entire time I am in the application.

  15. Character Panel Type, Leading and Scaling sizes have extra added decimals

    Ai 2025 v29.5 / Mac Sequoia 15.6 / M1 Macbook Pro / 32GB RAM - but happening on other macs with different configurations as well but same Ai version.
    We're noticing extra decimals are being added as shown in the attached screenshot. Despite choosing sizes from the drop-downs and then saving the file, the decimals return. I see a few others have posted about this previously but I haven't seen any resolution posts. Any help is appreciated. Thank you.

  16. Moving a part of a blend with any Selection tool makes it move faster than expected

    In 29.7.1 (and Beta 29.9.0.6) when I move one object in a blend with any selection tool, inside or outside of isolation, it moves twice as much.
    This is similar to this problem with symbols — http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447/suggestions/50293512

  17. Font styles applied to portions of text 'slide' / shift positions when area type overflows

    Illustrator 29.7.1 on Mac Ventura 13.5.2 (22G91)

    I dont' know whether it's related to this current issue, but now I have parts of my text that change appearance when I'm trying to change the Font weight of another part, or when I try to type more text.

    The workaround I have found it copy-pasting the text into a new Textbox. But still, this needs to be fixed.

  18. Bug - Cannot access Hands on tutorials

    I was doing the hands on tutorials and then I loaded into the app and the section for them was gone in my tutorials tab. I found the webpage online that allows me to launch hands on tutorials from browser https://www.adobe.com/learn/illustrator?tutorialType=inApp&learnIn=1 and it leads to the screenshot provided. I would love to be able to continue doing the hands on tutorials. I ensured that I have no VPN installed, I updated graphics drivers, and reinstalled Illustrator to no avail.

  19. Layer Assigned Color Changing Post Update

    Hello, After the update (August 12, 2025?) my Adobe Illustrator template layers change to black after saving a new project. I have built a template with many layers and assigned a color to each layer. After the update, when I open the template and save it as a new project, or simply update the template and save it, all layers that had an assigned color change to black. Is this a bug or an issue on my end?

  20. Pattern Scale Not Working

    My pattern scale has stopped working recently for user created patterns (it works ok on the default patterns). Previously I could create a pattern but dragging into the swatch menu, and then when I dragged the corners, the scale of the pattern would adjust along with the size of my shape. Now it does not.

    I have checked that "Transform Both (object and pattern)" is selected from the Transform Panel dropdown, along with Settings > General > Transform Pattern Tiles is also checked on.

    This has been going on since late July 2025 - I've tried every troubleshooting method I…
