Text highlighted with Layer color while I'm typing
Hi!
Do you have any idea why some of my Text objects stay highlighted with the Layer color while I'm typing (the yellow one in the video), and some don't (the orange one)?
Cmd-H doesn't change that (the yellow one stays highlighted while I'm typing).
Is this something in the Preferences, or Object settings, or Layer settings?
Thanks a lot for your help!
I'm on Mac OS 11.4, using Illustrator 27.0.1

Create Outline changed text frame (with text only) to coloured block
macOS Ventura, Illustrator 27.0.1
I have several documents with texts in frames and texts as 'loose'/text area. But as soon as everything is converted to letter contours, some text frames change into colored blocks. In the example file it concerns a Google font, but it also happens with Adobe CC fonts, the problem seems to have to do with the text frames, see the example file.

Can’t select a hyphen at the start of the line
テキストツールで半角英数字で入力したものが、後になって選択できなくなる場合があるようです。
「- 2022 -」と入力したあと、修正しようとしたら、最初の「- 」が選択出来ません。1 voteIllustrator converts a hyphen at the start of the line to a bulleted list, unless the 'Automatic Bulleted and Numbered lists while typing' option (enabled by default) is not turned off.
These converted markers can’t be selected, unless you convert the text back with the dedicated button in the Paragraph menu.
But be warned though, that sometimes disabling the auto-conversion does not work, and hyphen and other characters still force Illustrator to create a list.

When checking spelling, Illustrator does not move to the selected area of the page making it harder to see the "error" in context.
Have the viewable are move to the offending spelling like it does with InDesign.

Linked Text Boxes DEFORM
When spreading text over more than one text box, the first one is fine, but any consecutive one deforms so the copy is stretched.
1 voteThe problem was probably caused by scaling area type objects with another art selected. Illustrator treats these selections differently. Take a look in the comments for a more detailed explanation and demonstration.

Glyphs in a type on a path are placed wrong, rotate and shift
Type on a path seems to be glitching. There may be some setting I'm overlooking, but it's certainly never been an issue before my last update. Characters are rotating and randomly spacing along a smooth, curved path, as if there were sharp turns in the path.
Also, if I'm using type-along-a-path and then scale the objects with the text still live, the text will often glitch and then even if I undo the scale, it remains glitched.

Font weights have disappeared from existing document in 27.0
I opened an existing document, which used Quicksand in various weights. Now, with it opened via Illustrator 2023, all the weights have become one weight, ie light. There is nothing wrong with the Font, I am also using it in Indesign all the time, and it's working fine there. Please see screengrab, showing the PDF on the left (what it should look like) and Illustrator file on the right. The alert box only came up when I clicked on a text box, ie it wasn't there when i opened the document initially. Please help, this is a multi page document…

Change case feature not working.
I am trying to change from uppercase to lowercase. Using 26.5.1 (64-bit) version. I wish I had not upgraded as it crashes every few minutes. Steps: highlight text; Type-->Change case-->lowercase. (In the attached video the Type drop down does not appear in the recording; follow the mouse.
1 voteToni, for some reason you have All Caps option enabled in the Character panel for this particular text selection (or rather the whole type on path object).
Once disabled, Ai stops to force the capitalization for it, and the result of Change Case commands start to be visible.
I agree though it can be tough to discover.
If anyone else happen to have this exact problem — please add your votes, so the team can get data on reviewing this in the future.

text tool is slanted by default and cannot be fixed
(Using MACOS Ventura 13.0 on Macbook Air with M1 Chip.) This issue is both on PS and AI 2023.. When I use the text tool, the text appears slanted and cannot be set to the correct angle. Does anyone have thoughts on this? This was also happening on PS/AI 2022. See screen recording for visual.

No matter how the bullet list is set up in Preferences > Type, Illustrator will always make a list after typing the characters +, * ,# , - followed by a space. https://community.adobe.com/t5/illustrator-discussions/automatic-bulleted-amp-numbered-lists-while-typing-bug/m-p/13315015#M341830

Point type alignment trouble
I have an issue with Adobe illustrator, and the online help service didn’t help me at all
Here’s the deal:
When I type in English left to right, I can align the text to the horizontal center of the artboard.
BUT when I write in Hebrew (or Arabic), right to left, using a point type, the text will not align.
If I convert to area type, or if I change orientation of the txt to left to right, the text will align fine.
So the issue happens only when writing in Hebrew or Arabic, In right to left orientation, and…

preferences > Type "Automatic Bulleted and Numbered lists while typing" Not working
Version 27.0 64bit
This setting : preferences > Type "Automatic Bulleted and Numbered lists while typing" has no effect.
Illustrator is automatically numbering and bulleting, even when the setting is on or off.

fonts not displaying online
The specified typefaces rarely display online when sharing for review. They are being replaced by something else. This makes sharing a file online for review a waste of time. Even if I use an activated Adobe font, this font will unlikely be displayed in the browser. Even using a web friendly font doesn't help

paragraph copy converts to individual letters, or small small groups of letters
I have noticed this issue with some increasing frequency: where paragraphs of copy suddenly appear as individual letters or small groupings. These letters all appear on their own layer. I am unable to grab all the text, or modify an entire word. Thankfully, I save rounds of files, or work by copy and pasting , so I'm generally able to grab copy from an older version, but this is maddening to say the least. I work as a packaging designer and it's crucial that copy remain editable. I have attached an image of the copy selected and highlighted little pink…

26.5 Can not change text box's language in the Character Panel
When I highlight text or select a textbox I can not change the language in the dropdown menu located in the character panel. When I am editing, all my textboxes and either English: USA or Ukrainian and I can not change them. My default is English: USA but for some reason half of my text is labeled Ukrainian and the Auto Spellchecker is saying every English word is misspelled.

Localization bug with variable font panel
As shown, this is a variable font with 3 axes, the second axis is named "Italic", but it is incorrectly displayed as a localized text. I'm sure there is no localized name for this axis in the font file.
The font file can be downloaded from here: https://symphosizer.wearecollins.com/fonts/ABCSymphonyDisplayVariable.ttf
