Embedded images are lost when saving as a PDF
When I save a .ai file as a .pdf, many of the embedded .psd images are missing when I open the PDF in Acrobat. I have reinstalled Illustrator (2019) and Acrobat (Pro DC), but the problem persists. I have tried saving using different pdf formats, but the images are still missing in the PDF. If, however, I open the PDF in Illustrator, the images reappear. Thoughts?

Slow Mouse & shaking Cursor
Slow Mouse & shaking Cursor on Canvas.
Please remove this bug which is on illustrator since a long time (perhaps 2014/2015 version or before :/ ). It would be time to give a better UX on it because it's really boring.

Using Batch... and "Override save/export commands" does not work
Example: I have an action that prepares a logo file, then saves to ai and svg, and exports to png and jpg.
I have it recorded as an action, and it runs great.
If I try to use "Batch..." to run it on a folder of images I have options to "Override Action 'Save' commands" and "Override Action 'Export' commands" that will let you point the save/export commands to a new folder. This is great in theory, but does not work right.
After running the batch, I only have 2 files. Not 4. The Save as AI then SVG steps…

Buttons in properties panel not recording in Action
When recording an action, there are things in the Properties panel that does not record properly.
Example: Flip horizontally/vertically. The buttons does not record, but choosing the same options from the Transform panel menu does record.
Is anyone maitaining Actions in Illustrator? It is awesome, but still needlessly limited due to many things not recording, forced hard-coded paths when recording save steps, etc.
Perhaps learn a little from Photoshop where actions work better (though still limited).2 votes -
Action not showing all recorded attributes
In the Actions panel, most of the settings for some recorded tasks such as saving, exporting, etc. does not show up in the actions panel so I cannot even tell what file type the step is saving as. Is that intentional?

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

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

Intermittent SVG Text Export Bug
Intermittent SVG Text Export Bug
In 23.0.2 (and 23.0.3) when exporting and SVG sometimes text is exported as <text> tags with the layer name as an ID and sometimes the text is wrapped in a <g> and the <g> has an id with the layer name and the <text> element has no id.
The behavior is arbitrary, but one a text element begins exporting wrapped in a <g> it stays that way. Sometimes an element, after editing the text or font, that was exporting correctly will begin exporting wrapped (incorrectly).
This issue makes post-export parsing/processing difficult because you can't depend…

Issues changing type character properties
I have been having issues for a few weeks with illustrator not showing correct font or size. It used to be sporadic, but now it is happening the majority of the time! I even updated my Illustrator CC version & that didn't help.
For example, I will click on some text that is Gotham 15 pt, but the character panel says it is Myriad 12 pt. When I try changing the font or the font size, nothing happens.
It is getting to the point where I am not able to edit text size or font in my own files. Help!

If I have an illustrator file open, and then open a second, I can't view the 2nd file even if it's the one selected
I am having a consistent issue that any time I open a second file in illustrator, the view is always on the first file, even if I have the 2nd file selected. I have not found a way to resolve this so I can't copy and paste between files!

Tool Options Palettes Absent On Launch
The tool options palettes (those you select from the Window menu) are occasionally absent on launch. Not every time. Not even most times. It seems to occur in waves; sometimes more frequent, sometimes less frequent. Lately, it's been a near daily occurrence.
Choosing the palettes in the Window menu when this happens does nothing.
I have the palettes grouped in a single column, but it seems to make no difference whether they're grouped or spread out. Likewise it makes no difference if they're on my primary or secondary monitor.
Currently installed version: 23.0.3
I have CC set to auto update.…2 votesPlease accept my sincere apology for the inconvenience. Please get in touch with us at any of the other support channels – https://helpx.adobe.com/support.html .

can not operate the slider of the gradation panel

The same phenomenon as the attached image occurs. The opacity and position boxes overlap the gradient box, and the gradient slider can not be…

New Update 23.0.3 Causes Failure to Preview and Art Boards Save Erroneously in PDF
New Update 23.0.3 Causes Failure to Preview and Art Boards Save Erroneously in PDF- when saving out files they will error. The saved file will display and print a black gradient space in lieu of the art board and (seemingly random) graphics will be omitted. This is replicated when saving as a new AI or PDF or Printed from the saved file. The original AI file shows it prints normally but the print out is also erroneous.
