Spot colors converting to Magenta when saving .PDF files
We have a few team members encountering issues when saving PDF files out of Illustrator (running Windows 10 and 11).
If the file contains spot colors (built from scratch or pulled from library), there's a chance it will convert to solid magenta. The biggest challenge is that the glitch isn't always noticeable on the designer's screen, so sometimes it will get sent to the client without knowing. It's also not always repeatable, so it's difficult to troubleshoot.1 vote -

Recolor Artwork tool broken
Mac Sonoma 14.2.1, Illustrator desktop 28.5 Recolor Artwork,
1) I click on the arrow between current color and new color to prevent the tool from changing the current color but the tool is changing the color anyway and including it in the mix when rotating colors around from a color group.
2) Two colors are in a current color row and I used to be able to drag one of them out to an empty row, but now when I attempt to drag just one of the two, they both move.
I have tried closing the program and restarting program,…1 vote -
Pattern shifts when opening a SVG file
When I try to open an SVG file with patterns, they seem to randomly shift. It might be an issue with the origin point, but I'm not sure. When I open the SVG file in Inkscape or an internet browser, everything appears fine. However, in Illustrator, the patterns always shift regardless of the settings and preferences.

Converted text won't change color. Eyedropper nor manual change not working (even though "fill" panel picks it up)
I tried resetting everything, and updated Illustrator, which didn't help. Then I installed the new one and told it to remove old versions. So I now have the new illustrator 2024, and eyedropper still doesn't work. Exact same bug between versions of illustrator.
Note, it seems to specifically be happening with text, even after changed to outlines.
I saw a release note that this had been fixed yesterday, but I am having the issue right now, with the brand new install.

パターン作成時に幅と高さに0.0001mmの誤差
基準点を中心にした状態でパターンを作成する際に、パターンオプションの幅と高さに0.0001mmの誤差が発生します。縦横比維持の選択を解除し数字を均一にしても、「オブジェクトにタイルサイズを合わせる」などの項目を選択することにより、また0.0001㎜の誤差が発生します。

Fill opacity, rgba color results in no color
Released Version of Illustrator (28.0)
Problem Description:
I can change the opacity of an element fill using fill-opacity attribute or by adding the fill like this: fill="rgba(12, 12, 12, 0.5)". But seems rgba color is not recognizable by AI, we see such element as black. If we save this as svg (save as -> svg), we can see that such elements do not have color at all, that why we see them as black.
Workaround: To avoid it we can use fill-opacity instead of rgba. But then, if we save such svg in the way like file -> export ->…1 vote -
Fill/stroke color changes won't work despite restart/Illustrator being up to date (windows 11)
On my PC with Windows 11 that's up-to-date (as is Illustrator), I've lost the ability to change fill and stroke color even when a shape is selected, and even after rebooting my laptop. Note the orange-circled areas in the screen capture for reference.

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.…

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.
