  2. Bug in Illustrator v 25.2.1 - Under Type > Font. Font menu option inactive

    Upon clicking the Type>Font menu option, nothing happens. Used to bring up list of fonts. Apparently, the person responsible for menu functionality wasn't thorough enough to include it the latest update.

    Using Windows 10 Pro, OS Build 19042.928

  3. オブジェクト(主にテキスト)が選択できない

    打ち込みをしたテキストが選択できないことが多々発生しております。
    その部分は印刷もできないので文字が抜けたまま出力し現場に回ってしまうという業務に支障が出ています。
    保存をして落とし再び立ち上げると問題は解決するのですが毎回その動作をするわけにもいかず、必ず不具合が起こっているわけでもないので困っています。これはPCの問題でしょうか?ご回答お願いします。(著作権等の問題で一部しか画像がのせれません)

  4. variable font

    There's some sort of bug in AI 25.2.1 where the variable font icon disappears after working for some time. A properly installed OT variable font doesn't have the icon to adjust its width axis.

  5. Rotation of a text while Snap to Grid is on

    You can't rotate a text with the Rotate tool when Snap to grid is on.

    Please watch the GIF attached.

    Then try to replicate.

    Open the attached document.
    Enable Snap to Grid.
    Select text.
    Grab Rotate tool.
    Hold Shift (or even do not).
    Try to rotate the text.
    Failure?
    If yes, move it a bit to the side (with snapping still on) and try again.
    Experiment a bit with different positions.

  6. Crashes whenever I use the Type tool

    Illustrator 2021 is crashing whenever I draw a text box, or attempt to select a the text box. I get the greyed out 'not responding' and either have to force close the programme or it crashes.

    Occasionally after 5 mins or so the grey screen and 'not responding' will disappear and I am able to draw a text box, however I am unable to type in it. VERY ANNOYING! My Illustrator version is up to date, using a PC, I have tried closing all other applications and restarting my machine.

  7. can't use the hand tool while using type tool anymore

    If you're using the type tool, you used to be able to hit the command key, then press the space bar to bring up the hand tool to move the canvas around without affecting the type. It's worked this way for years and years. Now, however, when you bring up the hand tool while type is selected, the space bar adds spaces while the hand tool is also operating. Please fix this!

    This is another one of dozens of examples of things that worked flawlessly in Illustrator for years, but is now fundamentally broken. These types of problems are plaguing…

  10. Textframe bugs out, and won't change color. Had to make new text boxes

    Found a bug where a specific text box will NOT ovewrite the color of the text. I tried deleting paragraph styles, making new paragraph styles with different color, character styles and eyedropper tool. I can change weight, italics etc but the color would NOT change, despite the changes appearing in the appearance panels and other areas. Fixed by making new text boxes and moving the copy to those, but an annoying bug for sure.

  12. Strings that are too long per line are not rendered

    Strings that are too long in one line are not rendered

    OS: Windows 10 Pro 20H2
    Ai Version: 25.2.1

    This problem is probably caused by documents that are larger than about 2000px on a side.
    If the text has no line breaks and exceeds a certain font size, the text will not be displayed at all.
    Image output is also not possible.
    It is also common for this problem to occur at the same time as Adobe Fonts license errors and save errors.
    In most cases, the number of characters that stop the string from rendering is more than 1000,…

  14. Auto spell check occasionally not working

    I turn on the auto spell check always. However I still found out some typo mistake weren't underlined. I can still spot the spelling mistake by clicked into spell check function, but I cannot see the auto spell check is functioning well all the time.

  15. 25.2.1 Windows 10 - Occasionally No Fonts Load

    I am not sure if this is a reproducible but on Windows 10 1909, since upgrading to Illustrator 25.2.1 will occasionally not load any fonts after opening. The font selection dropdown list is entirely blank and no system fonts or activated typekit fonts show. I have no issue with fonts in any other programs.

  16. Error when pasting if one symbol is built with symbol font

    I'm working with maps in Illustrator and for a long time copying and pasting text inside an illustrator document has been acting weird. Each time I paste, the text is being pasted, but also added to the text is one or a few letters from a symbol font. It's like when copying text, it also copies something else.

    Today I noticed that I have one symbol which is basically one of the letters in one of my symbol fonts. (not outlined) And when outlined that symbol instead I noticed that pasting text no longer added the symbol font in the…

  17. Auto Spellcheck Squiggly does not go away when adding a word to dictionary...

    The red squiggly that appears under words when auto-spell check is enabled does not automatically go away when you add the word to the dictionary. If you edit the text somewhere afterwards, it looks like auto spell check is ran again, and only then is the squiggly removed.

  19. Regular Text in SVG opens as Italics

    Please check the attached AI which was saved from an SVG exported from Avid Sibelius 2021.2 on macOS 11.2.1 — in Finder and Spotlight the preview is correct and corresponds to what was in the source program (Sibelius).
    Opening the file in Illustrator makes all text objects which were in Academico font, Regular weight, become Italics weight.
    Opening the file in Affinity Designer doesn't show this particular problem.

    I cannot attach the SVG so I'll attach the AI.
    I hope you can investigate it in the same way.
    This is the Dropbox link to the SVG: https://www.dropbox.com/s/l4aja38o3iu0txu/bach-inventio4_0001.svg?dl=0
