  2. Lorem ipsum placeholder text spelled incorrectly

    This is silly, but the placeholder word "consectetur" is spelled incorrectly as "consectetuer"

  3. Text Overflow / Overset (+) Indicators are not shown

    A strange thing is happening with a few of my files. Some text boxes have stopped showing the indicator when clicking off of the text box which has text overflow. This recently cause me to mistakenly print a file that had text overflowing with no indication. Why is this happening?

  4. 中韓フォントの文字組みを変更してもアキが変わらない

    フォント「思源黑體 TW」の文字組みを「なし」や「行末約物半角」などに変更しても、アキ量が変化しない現象がありました。
    上記現象が発生したバージョンは下記の通りです。

    OS:Windows 10 Pro
    Illustrator CC:V 29.1、V 29.2、V 29.3.1(V 29.2.1、V 29.3は調べてません)
    なお、V 29.0、V 28.7.3 は当該現象は発生していません。

    問題発生時の手順:

    ・スクリプトを使いCSVデータを読み込んで文字情報を取得、文字をイラストに書き込む
    ・文字入力後、フォント「思源黑體 TW」へ変更
    上記どちらでも問題が発生します。

    想定していた結果:
    添付をご参照ください。
     V29.0文字組み「なし」.png
     V29.0
    文字組み「行末約物半角」.png

    実際の結果:
    添付をご参照ください。
     V29.1文字組み「行末約物半角」.png
     V29.1
    文字組み「なし」.png
    この2つの全角、半角のアキが同じ(変化がない)となっております。
    (どれを選んでも「なし」と同じ状態です)

    他のフォント(下記)で試してみましたが、アキ量の変化は確認できました。

    ・源ノ角ゴシック JP
    ・A-OTF UD新ゴ Pr6N L
    ・メイリオ
    ・游ゴシック

    Illustratorフォーラムにも投稿し他の方にもご検証いただいたところ、日本語以外(繁体字、簡体字、ハングル)のフォントで同様の現象が起きているようです。
    また、InDesign20.1(2025)でも同様の現象が起きているようです。

    バグであれば是非ともご対応いただけると幸いです。

  5. 割注指定の文字と通常の文字の間のカーニングおよびトラッキングができない

    「割注で2段に指定した文字」と「通常フォントサイズの文字」の字間をカーニングおよびトラッキングで広げることはできますが、詰めることができません。環境設定でトラッキング「100/1000em」で設定もしています。割注設定している文字の字間は詰めることはできるのですが…。

  6. When a justified area type with a short line gets converted into a point type, text shifts

    Why this justified text suddenly jumps into the middle of the area type’s bounds when converted into a point type? Not new at all, happens in CC2017 at least. It should stay where it was. If I change it to be just left-aligned, it works as expected.

  7. 2025 Paragraph styles broken opening files created in previous versions

    Opening up previously formated files (2024) with Character/paragrah styles applied is useless in 2025!

  9. 特定のテキスト状態のファイルを開くと旧バージョンで保存されたファイルと誤検知される

    Windows11(macOSでも発生すると思われる)
    Illustrator ver.29.0

    再現手順
    1.新規ドキュメントを作成し文字ツールでポイントテキストを入力する。
    2.1行目を36pt、2行目を10ptで指定する。
    3.Illustrator2020形式でファイルを保存して閉じる。
    4.保存したファイルを開くと「このファイルには旧バージョンのIllustratorで作成されたテキストが含まれます……」のダイアログが表示される。変更を確認しても文字のずれなどは見受けられない。

    期待する結果
    ver.29で保存したドキュメントを開く時にダイアログが表示されない。

    実際の結果
    特定のテキスト構成にて旧バージョンで作成されたドキュメントと正確でないダイアログが表示される。
    おそらく誤検知だと思われます。

  10. Center Vertical Alignment for Area Type becomes Top when Every-Line composer is used

    Take a look at the GIF attached.
    When vertical alignment is set to Center, it works only for Single-line composer. When Every-line composer gets chosen, the alignment becomes Top instead.

    And please rename the option finally — it should be VERTICAL alignment, not horizontal: http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447/suggestions/45711817

  11. The entire document fails due to the use of area text linked to different pages. Text is lost, the file freezes, won't save, or is stuck

    Mi computador es un MacBook Pro 2022 - Chip Apple M2 - MacOs Sequoia 15.5, pensaba que era un error del Mac por lo que formatee el computador y volví a instalar la suite de adobe, pero no, el error sigue, fue a partir de la actualización hecha después del sábado 28 de Junio. Desde allí el ilustrator presenta diferentes errores que detallaré a continuación:
    1. Para abrir un documento luego de haber trabajado en otro, se queda pensando diciendo que esta leyendo el documento y no lo abre, allí se bloquea y tengo que reiniciar el programa (adjunto pantallazo).…

  12. 29.7.1アップデートにおけるテキスト入力について

    半角入力では問題なく行えますが、日本語の入力時にリアルタイムで反映されず、画面左上で文字が表示され、Enterを押すと入力されるという仕様になっていました。(添付画像参照)
    また、以前のバージョンではAlt + 右 / 左向き矢印キーでカーニングできていましたが、出来なくなりました。
    改善していただきたいです。

  14. Cmd+Opt+Shift+M Erases Text

    OBSERVATION
    The keyboard shortcut Cmd+Opt+Shift+M will open the Character Window and highlight the current font, however this exceptionally incredible time saving shortcut works only if the text is selected and not highlighted.

    While the text is highlighted, performing the Cmd+Opt+Shift+M shortcut, simply erases the highlighted text.

    EXPECTED RESULTS
    The mechanics of this shortcut, many versions ago, performed the expected function, whether the text was highlighted or selected.

    Illustrator: 29.7
    OSX: Sequoia 15.5

  15. Embedded font previews get substituted when pasted as a vector smart object in Photoshop

    In some case, when opening the files, the app does not inform there are missing fonts. They're still displayed like the font is already installed in system. When I copy and paste into Photoshop (as vector smart object), the text is replaced by other fonts automatically without any announcement.

  17. Illustrator sometimes reports the font is not installed but then finds it on its own

    Boa tarde, há uns dias abri um documento que dizia que o tipo de letra estava ausente e hoje ao abrir dizia que já tinha o tipo de letra utilizado naquele texto. Sendo que não instalei a fonte nem passei nenhuma ficheiro da mesma de um pc para o outro, podem dizer-me se isto é normal ou se há algum bug no vosso programa?

  18. Quit making fonts unavailable (Neuropol)

    Almost every time that I open my menus and logos the fonts that I use are no longer available. I used the same Neuropol font for my menus and logos for 14 years before going to the cloud-based software. Since going to cloud based software I have had to resolve the missing Neuropol font to a slightly different variation at least 4 or 5 times. Not only is it annoying and time consuming, it is causing inconsistencies in my brand, and with this current update, it does not work at all.

  20. Text Converted to Outlines Upon Copy in 2026 with Keyboard Maestro Installed

    Adobe Illustrator 2026 (30.0)
    macOS Sequoia 15.7.1
    Keyboard Maestro 11.0.4

    When copying a live text object in Adobe Illustrator 2026 (point type, area type, type on a path objects), pasting with CMD+V or Edit > Paste converts the text into outlines when Keyboard Maestro Mac automation software is running.

    Quitting Keyboard Maestro Engine stops the behavior so that copying and pasting gives live text in the pasted object.

    Disabling com.adobe.svg as a clipboard copy flavor also fixes the problem, allowing copy and paste to preserve live text instead of creating outlines.

    This problem does not occur in Illustrator 2025 (29.8.3)…
