  7. Working on a Mac touchpad when moving around the project with 2 fingers gesture zooming triggers automatically with extreme intensity

    Working on a Mac touchpad when moving around the project with 2 fingers gesture zooming triggers automatically with extreme intensity.

    I used to work on my projects on my touchpad and now with the new updates somehow this bug appeared. Now it is a struggle to move around the project without a spacebar or with a hand tool instead of the previous Mac touchpad gesture.

  8. Outlined text corrupting in "placed" logo files

    AI logos with outlined text are being clipped/thinned/skewed when placed in both Illustrator and InDesign in 2025 apps.
    Can we expect a fix in an upcoming update soon?

  9. Unknown error during file import

    Illustrator 2025 (29.1)
    MacBook Pro M3 16"
    MacOS Sonoma 14.7.1

    When importing I'm getting a random "Unknown error" message. Afterwich the import failes.

    This seems chipset related. When I boot Illustrator 2024 (28.7.3) in Rosetta mode, the error is gone.

  13. Automatic and manual saving does not function

    Autosave and manual save does not work for Illustrator.
    I created a file, worked on it, saved intentionally several times, but after a day of work illustrator has not saved anything neither locally nor in the cloud.

    The autosave function is on.

    Does anybody know what could be the issue?

    Thanks in advance.

  14. Paragraph style with bulletpoints doesn't apply bullets when coming from CC library

    When I make a new paragraph style with bullets or numbering in an Illustrator document, I would like to reuse that. When I copy the style to the CC library, and apply that in a new document: the bulletstyle or numbering is lost.
    Instead when I copy the textbox to the library, and place that in a new document, the paragraph styles behave identical to how they did in the original document.
    I would suggest to make an improvement there, and not break the functionality of the paragraphstyles when used in a proper way through the library.. For me this…

  18. Gaussian Blur Effect Changed in 29.1 from 29.0.1

    As previously reported in July 2020 when this happened with 24.2: https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447-illustrator-desktop-bugs/suggestions/40865740-gaussian-blur-effect-producing-different-results-f

    This was last an issue with 24.2.3, and since 24.3 it had been successfully fixed with consistent results in 29.0.1.

    December 2nd, 2024: We have discovered that the issue is how the Gaussian Blur effect performs on Process vs Spot colours.

    In 29.1, Gaussian blur now produces an identical effect on both process & spot colours. We'd consider that a fix, as a designer should expect the same result no matter the colour used.

    The challenge here for Adobe is weighing "fixing the blur" vs customer legacy files.…

  19. Pantone or other book colors in a CMYK document look fine in Overprint preview mode but get exported to an RGB images as dull

    When we add a Pantone or a different book color into a CMYK document, we can see how it looks 'for real' when we enable Overprint mode — all fair.

    Then we would need to share this image with a client, so we export an RGB image... and this image shows out vivid book color as a dull-and converted-to-CMYK-and-then-to-RGB color — which is not what we have in mind.

    This is a bug, honestly, I think, but also a request — we need to be able to export images as we see them in Overprint Preview mode... Ai respect overprints…
