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:

Unavailable fonts in Illustrator vs Acrobat Reader
When I open a document with a missing font, Illustrator keeps displaying the correct font. However, when I open the same document without any changes in Acrobat Reader, the font changes to the default font. Is this normal? Or do I have to worry about converting to curves first?

Bug: Typing a "+" to begin a point text object and then following it with a space will break the point text object.
Typing a "+" to begin a point text object and then following it with a space will break the point text object. I have replicated on a completely separate machine with a different user. This is a bad bug for people trying to put a telephone number with a country code into a layout.
System info:
• Illustrator 29.6
• MacBook Pro M4
• 48 GB RAM
• macOS Sequoia 15.5.
Steps to repeat:
1. Create a new point text object
2. Type in "+ 123456789" (plus followed by a space followed by 123456789)
Observed behaviour:
• The cursor jumps…1 vote -
COLRv1 Fonts Rendering bugs
Rendering glitches for COLRv1 variable fonts. Glitches only show in Illustrator, but don't show up on the web or when exported (see screenshots)

Upon reopening Ai files, it shows that fonts are missing when they aren't
To fix the "error" I have to navigate to Adobe fonts, uninstall each font one by one, as uninstalling a font family all at once doesn't fix the issue, then individually reinstall each font. Super tedious and taxing to workflow. Issue is across multiple files, all that I have created on the same device that presents the "missing font" dialogue so I know it isn't a file issue. Please fix.

Illustrator wrongly says texts were created in different version of Illustrator
After the update, this message now appears, saying that my files were created in a different version. But it should be backwards compatible.

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

Fonts changing in files when opened in Illustrator 29.5.1
Existing files created in illustrator (on a different desktop) when opened in v29.5 & v29.5.1 display incorrect fonts - the font is changed to a completely different font (e.g. Myriad Pro will be changed to Times New Roman) throughout the document. All the text in that font family is changed, but other fonts used in the document will display correctly. The font is installed correctly on the system and the changed font can be changed to the correct font by selecting the font from the illustrator font list. The thumbnails display correctly in Bridge before opening in illustrator. Reverting illustrator…
63 votesThis fix is included in Illustrator v29.8.2.
If you reopen files that were not saved while the font change issue was present, the problem should no longer occur.
Please let us know if you continue to experience the issue in any new files created with v29.8.2.

Preview Only Text rendered as moved compared to the original
The new Preview Only Text feature is bugged. Attached is a screen shot of a comparison of the original document and Illustrators Preview Only text. The copy actually moves quite a bit from it's original position. The text is area type and within a box if that is a clue. This should be a huge concern for anyone trusting the preview only text.

Do not scale text when you have a text style applied
When I have selected multiple blocks of text or lines of text, I would like the option to scale the bounds as if I were selecting only one field, without scaling the font size — especially when a font style is applied. Alternatively, it would be helpful to have an option within the font styles to lock scaling. I often work on menus and need to lock scaling when moving or resizing groups of items. I wouldn’t mind needing to manually update the font style if I choose to scale text after locking document scaling.

Text tool inserting wrong style
If I have text typed out, then I try to change one letter it changes my font. For example I have the would "hot" typed in acumin regular, then I go to change the word to "got" and it might make the "g" bold or condensed or just an different style that is on the document. I am not using paragraph styles or character styles.

Fonts used previously won’t load and miss in the document
Many of the fonts aren't opening properly on the working files from the previous version of IIllustrator. It appears as I have no these fonts, but I sure had yesterday in 2024 version, so it's there :d

HEX Franklin Variable Font is Not Visible when Editing
I am on a Mac running Illustrator 29.4. I am trying to use the variable OTF version of HEX Franklin, and all Adobe apps do not render the letterforms. When I try to select the variable font in the dropdown, it just defaults back to Myriad or the default typeface.
Other variable fonts work as intended, but specifically, this one is broken. Any possible fix?
4 votesSeems to be fixed in the latest Illustrator build.
Please comment back if it’s not for you.
