  1. 文字組みアキ量設定や禁則処理設定を含む文字列ペースト結果が不安定

    Windows 10/11の、Illustrator Ver.25.4および26.0.2で起きる不具合です。

    1. 文字組みアキ量設定、禁則処理設定を任意で作成する
    2. それらを適用した文字列を作成する(片方だけでも構わない)
    3. 該当文字列をコピーする
    4. 新規ファイルなどにペーストする

    この場合、文字組みアキ量設定や禁則処理設定はペーストしたファイルと文字列にそのまま反映されるはずですが、反映されず、ペースト先に用意されているプリセットの設定が反映される、または設定「なし」としてペーストされます。
    何度かペーストすると反映される場合がありますが、ペースト時の挙動が不安定としての不具合にナrいます。

  2. Optical kerning changes when opening AI file in Illustrator 2021

    Opened an AI file created April 2021 (using Optical kerning) to make changes. Kerning looks ok when I first open the file, but when I click on the text, the kerning changes significantly.
    The font used is Georgia. Mac OS 10.15.7. Illustrator 2021 25.3.1. I had to open the file in Illustrator 2020 and copy the kerning values between the letters. I then opened the file in Illustrator 2021, changed from Optical to Metric and entered the kerning values from the Illustrator 2020 file.

  3. Incorrect display of Bangla (Bengali) sequence র‍্য

    This sequence, which is described in detail in the Unicode Standard, involves a zero-width joiner character that should force display of the final form of the last letter. This works correctly in InDesign and Photoshop, but not in Illustrator. Please see https://twitter.com/TiroTypeworks/status/1354160819865493505?s=20 for more details.

  4. Unwanted horizontal text scaling

    Illustrator will apply horizontal scaling to text when I am working on different part of the document. This even happens to text that is on a hidden layer. So far I have failed to "catch Illustrator in the act" so can't say what leads up to it happening. I just look at the text and it is magically scaled! Bah!

  5. eyedropper leading 0.1

    I have noticed that, in the last few updates to Illustrator, if I copy the type attributes from one text box to another using the eyedropper tool that the leading amount does not get copied. Instead, it gets set to 0.1 -- which really negates the utility of coping type attributes through the eyedropper.

  6. Emoji Baseline issues

    Using macOS Big Sur with Illustrator 25.0.1

    Anytime I use emojis on Illustrator, a portion of the emoji below the baseline gets cut off. When I zoom out, it looks normal again. I haven't had this issue before. Even on export, a chunk at the bottom of the emoji still gets cut off.

  7. Cap Height setting not using Font Cap Height

    Hello, the option for setting a size of a font by the font's specified cap height appears to be using a metric other than the cap height in at least one instance.

  8. Creating new paragraph or character style does not honor selected text

    https://helpx.adobe.com/au/illustrator/using/character-paragraph-styles.html

    ^ That page states you can select text, and click the new paragraph or character style button to create a new style that uses the selected text as a base. This does not work at all, it just creates a new style with Myriad and default settings.

  9. Layers are messed up, live text broken up

    File was last edited on Dec 23, 2019 - saved in illustrator 2020 .ai and .pdf formats. There were grouped layers, and live text layers.

    When I opened it today, my layer groups are all gone, and my live text has been broken up into separate layers (some mid-word).

  10. Text copied from Illustrator and pasted into Word, Keynote and other editors appears as image and not editable text

    Illustrator CC 22.1.
    Mack book pro MacOS high Sierra Version10.13.6.
    Microsoft Word Version16.23 (190309)

    Copy text from illustrator (Command C) and paste it into Word (Command V) using shortcuts on keyboard the text does not come in to word as editable text but as a picture that I cannot edit.

    I copy text from illustrator and past it into Word for editing and then past it back into Illustrator when I am done with the word editing. I do this for technical drawings, sketchbooks and any other 2D design and presentation work.
    Since 2011 until 2018 I was able to…

    If you right click in word you should get a paste as text option.
    Can you please contact Microsoft support. Like most applications we do promise text in clipboard along with other formats like svg, metafile etc…
    It is for word to pick any of these clipboard formats and consume.

  11. Text always shows as black

    Sometimes, when I apply color to a text box (using the swatches or the eyedropper) the color shown on screen is black even though in the Appearance panel the Fill is the one I applied.
    I made a screenshot (attached) to demonstrate

    Hi,

    The attached screenshot displays the FILL color underneath the CHARACTERS in the APPEARANCE panel therefore any change applied to the FILL will not be displayed, to display it correctly please move the FILL color row on top of the CHARACTER row (Click & Drag) in the Appearance panel.

    Hope this helps to resolve this issue.

    With Best Regards,

  12. Adobe Fonts dont sync properly with Typekits fonts purchased.

    My synced fonts don't show up in Illustrator. These are fonts that have been syncs for months. Restarting Illustrator does nothing. Unsyncing and resyncing fonts on Typekit does nothing

  13. Most of the fonts cannot show and load in the list of AI CS6

    Most of the fonts cannot show and load in the list of AI CS6 suddenly today. The down arrow button (red circle in the attached picture) of the font list is not working (no response), but I can still choose other fonts by clicking up/down keyboard arrow to choose around 10 fonts (my computer installs over than hundreds fonts!).
    Also, all fonts are still working in Photoshop and MS Office. Can anyone help on this? Thanks!

  14. Style Sheets

    In Illustrator CC (Latest version and several previous) on Mac:
    - BUG 1: Copying text with a Paragraph and/or Character Style applied and pasting it into a new text box adds a "+" to the end of every applied style, effectively breaking every bit of formatting that has been done. (Every style must be reapplied to the text to make the text update when the Styles are updated).

    • BUG 2: When Staggered margins are set while editing the Style Sheet (e.g. a 20px Left indent and a -10px First Line indent), clicking on the "Tabs" tab, wipes out all newly…

  15. font favorite

    Adobe Illustrator CC 22.1

    I updated my Illustrator App, and of course, I had to migrate all my templates over to the new CC2018 folder. Why do you make us do this EVERY update?

    Additionally, ALL of my Favorited fonts were lost. Ive spent so much time sifting through my fonts to favorite fonts in each class. Now, after the cc2018 update, all of my favorite font filters are gone. Why would you reset our font filters on this update? It seems you guys come out with more bugs than features in all of the Adobe CC software I use,…

  16. Changing text spacing duplicates text and makes other object glitch

    There is some kind of problem with the text spacing feature. It has been causing issues such as duplication of previous text, deleting text from another part of the page, causing all text to be spaced incorrectly and more.

  17. Character Panel doesn´t change fonts name

    AI version: last one, 22.0.1
    I typed the same words in 10 different fonts (all Google fonts), and they all look different of course, but when selecting them a second time, the font shown in the Character panel was always the same. I closed Illustrator and then it worked for few minutes, then the same issue appeared again.

  18. Illustrator CC 22.0.1 Type Anti-Aliasing Issue

    Illustrator CC 22.0.1 Type Anti-Aliasing Issue

    1. The dropdown menu in the type window for anti-aliasing options is disabled seemingly at random.
    
    1. The anti-aliasing dropdown menu in the type window allows me to designate a render setting to one type selection however, this setting also seemingly applies to all type on the document (i.e. I cannot apply "Sharp" to one text block and "Strong" to another).

  20. Selecting text with triple-click and navigating it with Cmd-arrows

    Since day one with Macintosh. Click ONCE for a point, Click Twice for a WORD, click Three times for a sentence, Click four for a paragraph.

    Illustrator CC 2018 no longer sees a Forced line break as the end of the sentence. All previous versions of Illustrator worked fine.

    Triple clicking now selects from Paragraph return to Paragraph return.
    This is definitely a BUG.

    Breaks, ^n is the common notation in a find field. But does not have one for a more common Paragraph Return.

    You can copy the hidden paragraph return and search for this. The search field will…
