    Quand je clique sur Fichier > Nouveau document, Illustrator ne réponds pas. Je suis obligée de cliquer sur Echap pour pourvoir continuer de travailler.
    Même problème sur le panneau d'accueil d'Illustrator, quand je clique sur Fichier > Nouveau, il se bloque.
    Je suis sur la version 25.1 d'Illustrator / Windows 10 Professionnel
    J'ai désinstallé et réinstallé le logiciel, le problème persiste.
    Merci de votre réponse.

  7. Unresposivness (again)

    I reported on this issue back in 2018 and for the past year or so, with the updates the issue has been solved (the response back then was that is was not a generic issue).

    Now with the latest update this came back again.
    After some time of using illustrator all the menus go blank when opening and everything stops displaying correctly especially throughout the interface and sequentially stops working all together. The good news is I can save even though I can't see if I do and after restarting the program everything works again, until it happens again.

    I…

  8. Esko Dynamic Barcodes plug-in crashing Illustrator

    Hi

    We use the Esko Dynamic Barcode plug-in for creating barcodes, but I've just moved over to a new M1 chip MacMini, and ever since if I try to use the plug-in in Illustrator (25.1) it crashes. Sometimes as I apply the settings, or sometimes as I just enter them.

    Has anyone else who uses this found the same issue? Esko say they're developing a Universal version of the plug-in, but it will also depend on Adobe updating releasing the native M1 Illustrator.

    Just wondered if there was a quick fix in the meantime for me to continue using it?

  10. Problema con trasparenze ed altri problemi in AI 25.1 (Aggiornamento del 8/01/2021)

    In seguito all'ultimo aggiornamento (Illustrator 25.1 dell'8/01/2021) riporto i seguenti bug e malfunzionamenti:
    1) I poligoni vettoriali quando vengono messi in trasparenza non hanno il bordo bello pulito ma presentano una linea tutta frastagliata! (allego immagine)
    2) Ad ogni avvio dell'iMac nel cestino compare una cartella "Recovery Files" con cartelle "AIRobin" anche se AI non è andato in crash e non ha avuto arresti anomali di alcun tipo.

    Qualcuno sa aiutarmi e indicarmi soluzioni a questi problemi?
    Grazie

  11. Font agent 9.6.1

    OS 10.13.6 High Sierra [don't want to upgrade OS yet]
    Illustrator 24.3
    Every time I open a file I get an error messgae saying that my 2015 plug ins need upgrading. Click to upgrade. I don't have 2015 plug ins. Suggestion from font agent is to upgrade Illustrator, can't do that as I don't want to upgrade OS.
    Solution dismiss error message every time, really tedious.
    What else can I do?

  13. artboards 1600% - 1700% zoom display error

    Dear Adobe, this an annoying feature or bug, which is always pursue me.

  14. Area-Type error when spaning over multiple pages

    Using a W10 pro with the last version of Adobe CC Illustrator.

    Steps:

    I have a small brochure that has some articles. I use area-type and there are some artciles that span over multiple pages. I format my text: font Myriad Regular 12pt, with fist-line indent 14pt and text alignement justify with last lign aligned left.
    In the case that the sentence splits at the end of the page, and continues on the next page, the rest of the sentence is shown with first-line indent (and it shouldn't). When selecting the text, the selection it shows you that there is…

  15. Applescript commands error on Ai v25.1.

    Applescript: Execute Menu Command & select all on active artboard (the only ones I documented) Fail on Ai v25.1 (MacOS Catalina).

    Seems certain AS commands have broke with the newest update.

    Multiple AS errors occurred on two Macs, both were fixed by downgrading to v25.01.

    Thanks.

  16. Problem with dragging assets out of CC library

    I have noticed that when I press opt + drag assets out of the library it will occasionally make all the objects of the assets scattered and misplaced. This also happens to most of my colleagues so I believe it might not be ai version issue.

    My operating system is MacOS Catalina and my illustrator version is Illustrator 2021 25.0

    I just paid for, and downloaded a new illustrator app three days ago and it's already not working, when I opened the app this morning it asked to verify me, so I added my email, password , it asked for phone number, verified that , no problem. Yet, once it was all done , a blank window with a loading symbol kept popping up every 4 seconds or so for hours, when I try to close the windows my entire app shuts down, I tried everything there is.. but I can't even uninstall the app. I'm really helpless here and…

  19. VBScript Internal Script Execution Error in version 25.1

    Running VBScripts from File > Other Scripts is not currently functional in the latest update- however the very same scripts work fine if the scripts are opened manually (and worked as expected from 'Other Scripts' in the previous version).

    Please fix!
