Leaders in Tab
I was using leader with tabs to draw lines. They do not flush evenly to the right in Illustrator 2020 (24.2.3). This feature works in Illustrator 2019 (23.1.1). On a Mac (10.14.6)

Preference settings for Type have changed
Previous versions of Illustrator allowed me to set my preferences for type to this:
Size/Leading = 0.5pts
Baseline shift = 0.5ptsBut in Illustrator cc 2020 v24.2.2 it is no longer possible to do that. This is what I am getting:
Size/Leading = 1pt
Baseline shift = 1ptIt seems like 1pt is now the lowest you can go.
Please help.1 vote -
Point Type moving when opening CC2019 AI file in AI2020
MacOs Catalina 10.15.3
CC2019 version 23.1.1
AI2020 version 24.2.1Only seems to occur when the text is aligned to the centre, set as point type and has tracking applied to it.
We have artwork files created in CC2019. When opening one of these files in AI 2020, version 24.2.1 on either Mojave or Catalina, text that is set up with tracking, is point type (instead of area type) and centre aligned shows a significant movement to the right.
As you can see from the attached .gif of the two files, there is one instance where there is no tracking applied…1 vote -
The name of the font & font style aren't refreshed (top bar)
The name of the font & font style aren't refreshed (in the character box of the top bar) When I click on another text element, it keeps the name of the previous font and font style.

Illustrator 24.2 tab stops not working with blank text lines
Tab stops do not function correctly when the text line has no text. We commonly use this for creating underlines. Attached examples show a text field with tab stops. The text lines with characters use the tab stops correctly (spaces do not count). Any text lines without characters cause the tab stops to be one space wide.

24.2 Unable to use special characters: English OS, German regional settings and keyboard
On a fresh English language Illustrator installation (English OS, German regional settings and German qwertz keyboard on Win10) I am unable to use any character that needs ALT GR as a Modifier. I therefore can not access €, @ | and a lot of pretty important letters. If that helps, Photoshop doesn't show this problem, but Indesign has similar issues. Other, non CC apps with English UI language work fine.

Optical Kerning issue when outlining and scaling
If you write something using optical kerning, copy it, paste in front and outline it, the outline matches up. However if you then scale both in pro, lets say 300%, then the live text no longer matches the outlined version (see attached example where the live text is in red and outlined vectors in black). This is causing us problems when scaling objects onto different panels but we are required to supply editable text. Logos etc are no longer exact scaled replicas!
We are using CC 2019 (as our clients need files in this format).1 vote -
Cannot activate new fonts
I'm using Illustrator 24.1.2 with a creative cloud student subscription on Mac OS Catalina. When I try to activate any font not installed locally, the activation process will go on for five minutes, then terminate itself. No font would be installed. I Googled around for similar problems, and many suggested looking at the "Font" tab of the creative cloud app. I don't have that tab. The only tab in my creative cloud app is "Apps".

Text element with multiple paragraph styles & colors turns white when adding used colors
I have a text element with two paragraphs and have assigned a style to each paragraph. One paragraph style is a different color, for emphasis.
When I go to Swatches (palette) > Add Used Colors, all of the text turns white (invisible against a white artboard) and a swatch named "K=0" is added to the swatches palette. This can be avoided by setting all Paragraph Styles to black or no color and using Character Styles to apply color, but that's not really how the styles are supposed to work.
If the paragraph and character styles ever are fully functional in…

Font Sample Halt
I'm frustrated that as I run down my list of fonts testing them on a specimen of type that the font scroll halts for no apparent reason, forcing me to use the down arrow and manually select the font I want to try the specimen on.

Text in opened SVG is wrong size and outside artboard in v23.1 and v24.0.2
In newer versions of Illustrator (23.1 and 24.0.2, for example) the text in our SVG files may appear at the wrong size and outside the artboard. This incorrect text commonly appears at the top-left.
The ZIP file contains a problem SVG, a preview JPG of how it should appear, and any customer-provided files used in the design.
Also attached are copies of each version's System Info readouts and a screenshot of a problem design open in AI 24.0.2.

Type tool not working properly
Running Windows 10 and Ai version 24.0.2
Trying to hit a return between words in a text sentence, neither the backspace or delete or enter work. No it's not a keyboard issue, since it works with any other program without a problem. This bug is also happening to several machines in the work place consistently. We need to close the whole application so it responds to this text command issue, but after having the document open for a little time it does it again.
I expect to be able to edit my text... this is a big one...1 vote -
