  1. artboards 1600% - 1700% zoom display error

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

    When I select an artboard with double click, which contains an icon (64x64px), always give me a visual error.

    First time automatic switch to 1700% zoom, and mess up the pixels, looks like slips over the grid, arround 0.5 px.

    If I click on it one more, or zoom in and out, the pixels are jump to the right place.

  2. 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…

  3. 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.

  4. 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

  5. Verification

    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…

  7. 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!

  9. ritardo

    In Illustrator quando trascino con il mouse gli oggetti, se non aspetto un secondo dopo aver lasciato la pressione del mouse, l'oggetto si sposta come per inerzia dietro il successivo movimento del mouse poco quanto basta per non accorgersene e perdere allineamenti vari....

  10. Adobe AI CC Fonts error question

    We recently encountered a "severe error" regarding FONT problem in Illustrator CC.

    There are TWO symptoms all regarding using MonoType Chinese Fonts(OpenType Embeddable Fonts) :

    1. Fonts size automatically decreased once we change the style, e.g. Regular > Bold.
    2. Fonts inside the "Cloud Assets" will automatically decrease its size randomly once we "Embedded" the assets.

    This error occurs probably after the update of AI CC 2021.25.105 (or maybe 1 or 2 versions prior not assure)

    Please investigate and revert us the solutions.

    Many thanks.

    (Attached are the screenshots of the errors)

  18. Asset export scale not working correctly (1x, 2x, 3x etc.... no longer keep files at 72 ppi)

    There is an issue with the asset export options in Adobe illustrator. When exporting with the png scale options .5x, .75x, 1x ,2x, 3x, etc... the file's ppi is also changing rather than staying at 72ppi. For Example when exporting a 100x100 square @1x, 2x, & 3x the expected behavior would be to get 3 pngs (@1x - 100x100px @72ppi), (@2x - 200x200px @72ppi), and (@3x - 300x300px @72ppi) (I'm pretty sure the asset export used to work this way); However what is happening now is you get 3 pngs (@1x - 100x100px @72ppi), (@2x - 200x200px @144ppi), and (@3x…

  20. Ai 2021 - crashing after 1 or 2 minutes on Mac OS Big Sur 11.1

    While starting to work on Ai, the system shuts down unexpectedly in 1 or 2 minutes - after opening any ai files. I had a chat with Adobe support team and they have advised me to delete the Creative Cloud app, after which the app was working fine but fonts were missing. Because I required the fonts to work on - I have reinstalled the CC app, then the issue started again. Request to please support in resolving the issue or suggestions.
