  10. 폰트 호환성 관련하여

    일러스트 CC 사용중입니다.

    작업을 하면서 국가에서 배포한 Free 글꼴을 사용중인데, 새로 만들기 할 때는 유첨자료 처럼 잘 보이는데, 새롭게 불러오기 하고 나면 글꼴이 없다는 메세지가 계속 뜹니다.

    글꼴의 호환성 문제일 듯 한데, Free 글꼴을 adobe에 정식적으로 등록하는 방법이 없는지 궁금합니다.

  12. Kalligraphiepinsel

    Hallo, ich habe einen ovalen Kalligraphiepinsel angelegt und einem Pfad zugewiesen und die Pfad-Form erhält einen kalligraphischen Kontrast. Soweit so gut. Klicke ich allerdings erneut auf die kalligrafische Linie, um sie erneut dem Pfad zuzuweisen (zum Beispiel, weil ich diesen verändert/verlängert habe), so ändert sich mit jedem Klick der Winkel im des Ovals. Ein Bug oder eine Voreinstellung, die ich noch nicht kenne? Vielen Dank für jede Hilfe.

  14. Illustrator ne tient pas compte du réglage d'unité dans les préférénces

    Illustrator ne tient pas compte des unités spécifiées dans les réglages des préférences. Par exemple : lorsque dans les préférences, l'unité est réglée sur Pixel pour Général, Contour et Type ; dans la fenêtre Propriétés l'unité est en mm. Ceci même après relance du programme et réinitialisation des préférences

  15. Shape are invisible/Glitch

    Hi, I use Adobe Illustrator 2021, and my laptop is Mac OS Big Sur. Recently, illustrator bugs often appear. When I drew the shapes/lines with a pen tool, the objects are invisible Or glitch. It suddenly happens, so I had no idea what I can do.
    When I zoomed out/in or tried to re-create in a new file, uninstalled and installed the app, I tried everything that I can do, but the result didn’t change.
    It’s inconvenient because even I drew all the shapes; after all, it’s invisible to see...I’m not sure what the reason is. Would you help me…

    So i have to find a previously created file where that doesn't happen, replace the vector content, resize my file and i 'm good to go.

  18. 3D - Extrude - Isometric Top is skewed so edge does not run parallel with Isometric - Right

    I made a square out of vertical rectangles of alternating colour and wanted to make it into each face of a cube.

    However, 3D - Extrude - Isometric Top (with no bevel or shading) effect is slightly skewed.

    Therefore, I cannot connect each anchor point to make a cube. See screenshot to see how the top's edge veers away from the right side.

    OS: Mojave 10.14.6
    Illustrator 2021: 25.0
