Pattern problem when making PDF
Artist created an ILL file in 27.9 version, using Pattern Swatches and also used a transparency on that pattern in the art. When PDF is created and opened, I get an error:
"An error exists on this page. Acrobat may not display the page correctly. Please contact the person who created the PDF document to correct the problem."The pattern does not display at all along with this display in Acrobat.
I did a test and replaced my version of 27.9 ILL to version 27.0. And it works perfectly. PDF does not flag an issue and RIPS properly as well.…

Colors Get Stuck in the Adobe RGB Color Space When Switching From Adobe RGB to sRGB
When I change the document color profile from sRGB to Adobe RGB and then back to sRGB, all the colors get stuck in the Adobe color space.
How to reproduce the problem:
1) Create an sRGB document with an R: 0 G: 255 B: 0 object.
2) Assign the Adobe RGB color profile.
3) Assign the sRGB color profile.

No overprint objects but a dash appears in Attributes panel
Documents that have no fill or stroke objects set to Overprint show a dash in the Attributes panel checkbox that makes you suspect there is overprint. Confusing, nothing should be checked if nothing is set to overprint. The example show a dash for fill when the image is selected and a faint dash for stroke when the text is selected.

Color Picker changes the settings when saved
I am tweaking a color in Illustrator CC. I make slight adjustments to the Saturation and Brightness controls and hit Save. When I open the color picker again, the Hue, Saturation and Brightness controls are all shifted slightly. The Hue is especially disconcerting as it appears to be shifting left with every save.

Livetracing Bitmaps gives results with random shades of black
Up until recently, if I used the Livetrace and Expand command on a bitmap it would produce results with only pure white and pure black, as you would expect. Now it randomly assigns values to every piece of what should be black. Instead of 100% black they are 99.29% or 99.67%. Normally I would select one piece, select all by color and move it. Now I need to click on every single piece and apply black to them. Very tedious.
1 voteKeith, the team reverted the Image Trace panel back to the more stable version. If you use 27.7 version, you can try to update to Beta, or revert to the older version, or wait until the Beta version will go stable.

RGB colors keep changing on their own
RGB colors keep changing on their own. File is open and after a while the rgb colours have changed. They become duller and keep needing to be reset. I have set the file up in rgb web mode. Have checked the color profile to rgb also. This makes illustrator almost unusable. Can't send file to client without having to go through every color to make sure it hasn't shifted. Serious bug issue that has been reported on before in 2022

線と塗りが黒のテキスト選択時にカラーパネルを変更するとパネルの挙動がおかしくなる
①
PC：Mac Studio M1 MAX / OS Ventura 13.4と13.5
Illustrator：26.5.3と27.7で同じ現象を確認②線と塗りにC0Y0M0K100が適応されているテキストを選択した状態で、カラーパネルをCMYKからグレースケールに変える。
③C0Y0M0K100からK100になる。
④見た目は黒だがカラーパネルはK=0になってしまっている。
修正しようとするとオブジェクトが白になってしまう。補足：グレースケールからCMYKパネルに変更した時も黒から白になります。ちなみにアピアランス設定で塗りと色を黒にして同じ操作をすると問題なく黒のままでした。
既出でしたら申し訳ございません、ご検証宜しくお願いいたします。

Color preview
When I select an object I used to change the color and have a live preview before choosing it...why is not available anymore???
3 votesAccording to the team, there was an issue because of live color preview, and it had to be disabled in 27.6.1. The team is working on fixing the issue at the earliest, and then the live color feature would be in the release with the fix.

Changing color doesn't work sometimes
This bug goes long way back, as far as I remember using illustrator, both on PCs and Macs.
Sometimes (usually in text objects, but not only), when I pick a different swatch to change an object's color, the color in the swatch palette changes, but the object's color remains the same.
To resolve this, I have to choose "None" as the color, and then choose the color I want.2 votes -

Files have a swatch that cannot be deleted
Please help me understand why this swatch cannot be deleted. In this case it is a Pantone swatch, but in other files it's just a global color. I have deleted all objects and links in this file to be sure it's not connected to some hidden element.
Thank you for looking. It is becoming an issue in file cleanup for clients. They all have this one odd, unremovable swatch from another project.
1 voteAs it turns out the swatch was in use by the plugin.
If the same happens to you — try to check all the symbols, graphics styles, anything like this in the document that might use the swatch.

Can't delete swatch
I have a random color swatch that appears in my Swatches palette every time I create a new document. It cannot be deleted. As far as I can tell, it is not being used anywhere. I can change it to a different color, but then if I try to delete it, it not only does not delete, but it changes back to the original color. Right now, it's some random shade of blue, but at other times it is a different color that persists. Here is a video: https://youtu.be/MVJKo4i0xfw

Merge Swatches not working
Selecting 3 identical Swatches, and choosing 'Merge Swatches' should result in 1 Swatch that is applied to all objects that were colored by the 3 identical swatches.

「レビュー用に共有」で塗りがネガポジ反転する。
「レビュー用に共有」をしたときリンク先で表示されるドキュメントの塗りや線の色がネガポジ反転してしまいました。
色々と試してみたところ、カラー絵文字フォントが原因のようで、アウトライン化したら正しく表示されるようになりました。
アウトライン化前とアウトライン化後のファイルを共有しておきます。
（正しい塗りの色は青です）こちらはリリース版（27.4.1)、プレリリース版（27.6）どちらも再現しました（Mac OS、Ventura）。
Windows11のリリース版も同様です。
いずれもブラウザはChrome。MacはSafariでも試しました。（OL前）

Recolour tool does not load custom colour palettes (AI 27.3)
I have restarted my machine already multiple times, but when I try to use the recolour tool, the added colour palettes I created do not load on the right hand side
1 voteThis happens because the swatches from the local library should panel should be added in the document’s Swatches panel for the Recolor to use it.

Ink value changes to 0 while adjusting color
When selecting multiple items with a different color mix, values changes to 0 when adjusting a single ink while it shouldn't change. In older versions this doesn't occur.
In the screencap, the Cyan value changes to 0 so the colormix changes completely.
Operation version: MacoOS Ventura 13.2.1
Version Illustator: 27.3.13 votesWe have fixed the issue and a build with the fix is available in Beta.
