  1. Bug - Variable Concept fonts do not show on screen or in output

    Mac OS 15.3.2
    Illustrator 28.4.5
    Plugins: Esko DeskPack Essentials 24.07; extensis Connect Fonts 27.0.0

    Variable Concept fonts do not show. The text box is visible when I change to View Outlines. I can select the text lines and see the colour and font information; the text does not appear on screen or in output. Our only solution is to quit Illustrator and restart. This seems to fix the view issues, but we now have to quit/restart multiple times per day.

  2. 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。

  3. Font switches to default and back while navigating string with arrows

    It's a bit hard to explain in words, so please watch the screencast I recorded. To put it simply: if a text block has a font other than the default (Myriad), and you want to navigate the text using the arrow keys, each time you click the button, the font in the panels changes to the default font and then back. The new letters have the correct font, although this does impact performance, especially for large texts.

  4. Bullet or numbered list incorrectly applying when copying text boxes

    If text that has a bullet or numbered list applied to it runs across a joined text box, the list effect will be applied to all the text before it in the duplicated text box.

  7. Area type vertical alignment and auto size doesn't work

    I've been using Illustrator on my Intel Mac under Sequoia and last versions lets you choose center, bottom or justify alignment but it always acts as top and the auto size option is disabled.

  8. Auto Spell Check is splitting words causing false highlights.

    The false highlights are making editing a typo impossible. See attached example.

  10. 表示用に埋込んだ日本語OTFが表示されない

    1.新規ドキュメントを開き任意のテキストを入力し日本語OTFフォントを指定する。

    実際の結果
    ドキュメントのDictionaryに含まれる「Embeded Font Binary Data」にはエンコードされたフォントが保存されるが、ドキュメントを開いた際に利用されない。

    いくつか検証しましたが、WesternフォントやCJKであってもTrueTypeであればプレビュー表示されます。AdobeFontに含まれる日本語フォントやモリサワのOTF等がドキュメントに含められているにも関わらず表示に利用されません。
    フォントのファミリー名やスタイル名の処理に問題があるように思います。

  11. Text editing issues in regular and large canvases

    1. Set the regional text to "align both ends, align the last line to the left", which aligns normally in a regular canvas, but cannot align on the right side in a large canvas.
    2. For the text in the same area, adjust the "Scale Spacing" text in the big canvas to overflow on the right. Display normally in regular canvas.

  12. Bullets/Numbering indents don't scale with type objects

    The Indent/First line indent values set in bullets and numbering options don't scale with type objects.

    Normal paragraph indents do scale as expected, so I think this is an oversight or bug.

    Examples:
    1. Area type with text at 12pt, numbering options have an 18pt left indent and -18pt first line indent.
    2. Same object scaled 150% -- type is now 18pt, indents have not changed, meaning left indents for double figures have been forced to the next tab.
    3. Paragraph without bullets/numbers, 12pt, left indent 18pt, first line indent -18pt.
    4. Same object scaled 150%, type is now 18pt,…

  14. Live text in transparency mask not outlining or showing in font list

    This is a 2 part issue:

    1. If I select all and outline the type the document doesn't outline anything that is in a transparency mask. This is a major flaw that needs to be resolved as has lead to mistakes being printed with default text.
      Select all and outline needs to either include everything within transparency masks or a new command to outline text within these masks needs to be created as a separate option.

    2. A huge worry is I released work last week where I believed everything in the transparency masks had been correctly outlined by individually going in…

  15. ファイルを開き直すとカーニングがリセットされる

    .aiファイルでデザインを作成し保存、ファイルを一度閉じてから再び開くと、特定のテキストのカーニング設定がリセットされます。
    発生条件は不明ですが、今のところファイル中に1つだけ現れています。
    ただし、いろいろ設定をいじって一つを解決すると、別の場所に新たに発生する可能性があります(これは作業前に全ての問題を把握してから取り掛からなかったのではじめから2箇所の問題があったのかもしれません)。

    現時点では対処法が見つかっていないので、目を皿にして入稿チェックデータを確認し、見つけ次第直し、の繰り返ししかありません。

    後から修正のできない印刷物にとっては重大な問題ですので、調査と修正をお願いしたいです。
    他に提供できる情報があれば提供いたします。

  16. Missing fonts warning when no fonts are missing

    Every time I open any illustrator document, the missing fonts box shows up telling me all of the fonts are missing, but when I click replace fonts, they don't show as missing any more and there's no issue. This is a really annoying bug.

  17. Illustrator Beta Font Selection Panel Disappearing Problem

    When the pop-up font preferences panel opens, which is an easy selection area, the window that opens to select a font disappears when hovering over it with the mouse. The font preference preview panel closes before making a selection. It occurred after the last update.

  19. 保存後、再度開くと文字スタイルがリセットかつ適用できない箇所が一部発生

    文字スタイルの不具合が2点。
    いずれも、クラウドドキュメント(.aic)で保存したファイルを、次の日開いたら発生。

    1. 適用していた文字スタイル(標準文字スタイル)が解除され、再度どの文字スタイルを選択しても適用されない

    2. 適用していた文字スタイル(標準文字スタイル)の部分が文字化けし、設定していないフォントに書き換えられる

    正直、保存→ファイルを開くだけで、こんな不具合が出るのは非常に困ります。尚且つ、1.の再度文字スタイルが選べない = 復旧できないは致命的です。
    XDに近い、テキストスタイルはとても便利な機能なので、早急に安定活用できるよう改善お願いいたします。

    [添付]
    1. 選択箇所のように、サイズ10級にしていた箇所が、フォント種、サイズなどめちゃめちゃになり、スタイルの再設定もできない

    1. 1.と同様の「標準文字スタイル」箇所が勝手に他のフォントに設定され、尚且つ文字化けを起こしている

  20. 縦組みのエリア内文字のスレッドテキストオプション作成が正常に機能しない

    macOS 14.7.2
    Illustrator ver.29.1

    Step to reproduce
    1.縦組みのエリア内文字を作成する
    2.矩形ツールで矩形を描く
    3.エリア内文字と矩形を選択してメニュー「書式→スレッドテキストオプション→作成」を選択する。
    4.矩形が縦組みエリア内文字に変換されるが、スレッドテキストにはならずエリア内文字のコンテンツがコピーされた状態になる。

    期待する動作
    矩形がスレッドテキストとして正常にリンクされる。

    実際の結果
    スレッドテキスト→作成を実行してもスレッドテキストとならずコンテンツの状態もおかしい。

    回避策
    Tツールを使って手動でスレッドテキストをリンクさせる。

    縦組みに対するスレッドテキストオプションの挙動は全般おかしく、エリア内文字や矩形の構成や状態によって挙動が異なる場合がありますが、全般的に意図した通りに動作しない。
    また、おかしくなったエリア内テキストを手動でリンクさせようとするとIllustratorがクラッシュします。

    以下のコミュニティ投稿もご参照ください。
    https://community.adobe.com/t5/illustratorフォーラム-discussions/縦書き文章でスレッドテキストオプションが正常におこなわれない/td-p/15077023?profile.language=ja
