1. Severe Lag in Adobe Illustrator When Editing Text and Objects—~15s Input Delay on 2MB File

   While working in Adobe Illustrator, I encountered severe performance issues across the entire application. Even with a lightweight file (~2MB), there was an approximately 15-second delay after any action—such as typing text, pressing Enter, or modifying objects. This lag affected not just text input but also general object manipulation and UI interactions.

   The issue persisted despite the file being relatively small. I’ve previously worked on significantly larger and more complex Illustrator files without similar lag. This suggests the problem may not be file size-related, but possibly linked to a software bug or compatibility issue.

   I attempted standard troubleshooting steps, including restarting the application and computer, but the problem remained. This level of unresponsiveness made it nearly impossible to work effectively in Illustrator.

   Adobe Illustrator Version 29.8.1
   Windows 11 Enterprise Version 23H2
   RAM 32 GB
   CPU: 13th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-13800H 2.50 GHz

2. Font Weights Change Upon Opening Files

   When opening a file I previously saved, all the font weights switched around. Things that were bold were now light and light font were bold. A few fonts were switched out to different fonts altogether, even though the same font was still in the document, so it wasn't like it was unavailable.
   I deleted any duplicate of the fonts and only had fonts from Adobe Fonts used in my documents, but the problem didn't go away. When opening an older version of the file that had the correct fonts weights, it would automatically change once I saved it.
   I ended up just going to an older version of Adobe so I wouldn't have to worry about all my files being messed up (and now it's crashing a lot with I guess is the preferable problem.)

3. Missing fonts with asterisk still appear in Illustrator font menu — even after cache cleanup

   Illustrator keeps showing missing fonts with an asterisk (*) in the font menu, even when those fonts are no longer installed or active.

   This happens even in new blank documents and after multiple attempts to clean caches and reset preferences.

   It makes the font list cluttered and hard to navigate, especially for users who work with many typefaces.

   Please consider adding an option to hide missing fonts from the font menu, or improve the way Illustrator handles font references and cache rebuilding.

   This issue has been affecting productivity and font management for a long time.

4. Illustrator no longer keeping custom layer colors. Layer colors revert to black

   In recent Illustrator builds, custom layer colors applied to layers are not being saved with the document. When reopening the file, all layers that used custom colors revert to black, regardless of the original assignments. Default layer colors still persist correctly.

   Steps to Reproduce:
   Create a new Illustrator document.
   Add multiple layers.
   Assign custom RGB colors to the layers (not from the default layer color list).
   Save and close the document.
   Reopen the document.

   Expected Result:
   Layers retain the custom colors assigned to them.

   Actual Result:
   All custom-colored layers revert to black, while default colors are preserved.

   Impact:
   This breaks workflows that depend on a standardized layer color scheme (e.g., manufacturing, prepress, or complex multi-step production). Users can no longer rely on Illustrator to persist custom colors across sessions.

7. Hand tool is getting stuck in 29.1, massive performance issues

   Since yesterday Illustrator has virtually become unusable to me and I have no idea what happened. I didn't install any new apps.

   The issue is seems to be focused around using spacebar to pan around my document. It gets stuck on the hand tool and the pan itself is laggy. When using the middle button on my mouse, the pan works perfectly though.

   Left clicking on elements and manipulating them is an unsurmountable task with these issues, effectively making Illustrator unusable to me now...

   I really hope someone else is also experiencing this, but I haven't been able to find any resources.

   I tried everything. Restart my Mac. Reinstall Illustrator. Tried older versions. All the same...

   It seems like using Magnet app together with Illustrator breaks something. Try to disable it for now (sadly, it is reported Ignore option does not do it).

9. Alt & drag to copy not working.

   I only read one post about this problem with a GIF example. I'm working on Windows desktop, every time I try to alt + drag to copy something, at first it creates a copy, but when I release the mouse or keys (tested many combinations), it ends up only moving that object to that place instead of creating a copy. It's really frustrating because it's making my job difficult.

    再現手順
    1. 新規ドキュメントを開きアートボード上に楕円を描画する。
    2. パス上文字ツールで楕円をクリックして楕円を対象にパス上文字を作成
    3. 左右のブラケットを楕円の左右のアンカーポイントに合わせる。
    4. 中央のブラケットを操作するとブラケットが反対側に飛んだり戻ったりする。
    5. 4の挙動の後にクラッシュする。

    期待する結果
    ブラケット操作時に安定して操作できる。

    実際の結果
    ブラケットの操作が不安定で、高確率で最悪クラッシュする。

    回避方法
    楕円の一部をはさみツールで切断しておくことで不安定な動作を回避可能。

    EN
    Step to reproduce
    1. Open a new document and draw an ellipse on the artboard.
    2. Click on the ellipse with the Type on Path tool to create a Type on Path for the ellipse.
    3. Align the left and right brackets with the left and right anchor points of the ellipse.
    4. manipulating the center bracket causes the bracket to jump to the opposite side or back.
    5. crash after behavior of 4.

    Expected Results
    No crash during bracket operation.

    Actual Result
    Unstable bracket operation, high probability of worst-case crash.

    Workaround
    Unstable operation can be avoided by cutting a part of the ellipse with the scissors tool.

13. 「環境にないフォントを解決する」などからバリアブルフォントをアクティベートできない／Cannot activate variable fonts through Resolve Missing Fonts.

    Adobe Fontsが含まれたドキュメントを開くとき、そのフォントが環境になくても「環境にないフォントを解決する」などからアクティベートできるのですが、バリアブルフォントの場合はアクティベートができず、困っています。

    ・和文でも欧文でもバリアブルフォントだとアクティベートできない
    ・Beta版と製品版（2025、2024）で確認したが、アクティベートできないのはいずれも同じ

    回避策として

    ・Adobe FontsのWebサイトで事前にアクティベートしておく
    ・文字パネルの「さらに検索」タブからアクティベートする

    などの方法が挙げられますが、単純に手間ですし、初心者さんにとってはハードルの高い作業だと感じます。
    ほかのフォント同様に「環境にないフォントを解決する」や「フォントの検索や置き換え」からでもアクティベートできるのが正しい挙動だと考えています。

    UserVoiceで似たような報告を見つけられなかったので、日本語版だけのバグではないか？と疑っています。
    バグであれば早めに解消いただけると嬉しいです。

    ---

    When opening a document with Adobe Fonts, missing fonts can usually be activated via "Resolve Missing Fonts," but variable fonts cannot.

    • This affects both Japanese and Latin variable fonts.
      
    • Tested in Beta and release versions (2025, 2024) with the same result.
      

    Workarounds:
    
    - Manually activating fonts on the Adobe Fonts website.
    
    - Using the "Find More" tab in the Character panel.

    However, these add extra steps and can be difficult for beginners. Variable fonts should also be activatable through "Resolve Missing Fonts" and "Find/Replace Fonts," just like other fonts.

    I suspect this might be a bug specific to the Japanese version, but if you experience the same issue in non-Japanese versions of Illustrator, please vote and leave a comment.

14. GPU rendering & mouse with indents (stepping) scroll wheel = blurry graphics

    When scrolling with a scroll wheel that has indents, the GPU rendering causes blurry graphics at the beginning of the newly rendered pars that come into the workspace. See attachment.
    It takes half a second to render that portion of the screen in normal quality on a Mac Studio Max! This machine should render fast enough to see no blurry parts. (120fps games as an example!)
    I suspect Ai 29.8.2 to have a render engine problem. It’s just too slow. Other apps like Figma, Affinity Designer render the same documents 100x faster.

    Hi All,

    Regards,

    Aishwarya G Gadodia

16. Suffix still gets added when an image is exported even though the option to add it is disabled

    While exporting a AI file to, for example JPG, the checkbox for automatic file extension (suffix) is unchecked. When I export it, the filename gets a extension (suffix) '-01' behind it. When I export, check the box, and uncheck it, the file saves without the extension (suffix), like it should. So every time I have to check and uncheck the option before exporting. Very annoying. Never had this issue before.

    Newest updated installed 29.6.1 on Windows 10 Pro.

    Anyone else has the same issue?

    図形や文字の幅をアピアランス→塗りを指定→パスのオフセットで
    幅を変更しています。ｖ29.61と29.6でイラレを使用すると
    縮小などをした際に幅の比率が変わってしまいます。(線幅と効果拡大縮小もチェック済み)
    ※線で作成した図形や文字は比率を守ってくれます
    29.51を使用すると問題なく拡大縮小ができます。
    これはバグなのでしょうか？

18. Not Getting "Overwrite notification" when exporting using "File/Export/Export as..."

    This only started happening recently and I'm not sure what to do to fix it. Whenever I export a file using the "Export as..." feature, I'll navigate to the location where it was previously exported and click the "Export" button. I used to get an overwrite notification asking if I wished to do so and I'd just click yes or no. Now, for some reason, that notification isn't triggering and Adobe Illustrator is just overwriting. I tried using Windows Explorer to copy and paste a file to the same location, and Windows "does" give the standard notification to confirm overwrite. It's only when I'm using Illustrator (specifically "File/Export/Export as..." with "Use Artboards" checked, that it's skipping that step.

    It doesn't matter what format I'm exporting.

    I created a 100 pt x 100 pt artboard.  Export as JPG to desktop with settings outlined in the attachment.  When I try to repeat the process, I should get an overwrite notification but I do not..  No notification. The process simply overwrites without question.

    I'm on PC

    Microsoft Windows 11 Professional Version 24H2
    Illustrator version 29.8.2 (64 bit)

19. Linked images (with embedded profiles) shift color when embedded

    Embedding an Adobe RGB (or any profile that is different than the current document profile) image (jpeg, png, tiff) in an sRGB Illustrator 2025 document gives a different result than with an Illustrator 2024 document.
    When Profile warnings are checked in the Color Settings, the warning dialogs are different between 2024 and 2025
    2024 warns for a Paste Profile Mismatch and allows to “Convert.(preserve color appearance)”
    2025 warns for an Embedded Profile Mismatch and wants to “Use the embedded profile (instead of the working space)”.
    When embedding in 2024 the default is “Convert” (which tries to keep the color appearance and the result will look more or less the same).
    When embedding in 2024 and selecting the “Don't convert (preserve color numbers)” option, the color appearance will change visibly (as expected).
    When embedding in 2025 the default is: “Use the embedded profile”, which will change the color appearance visibly).
    When the option “Discard the embedded profile (don't color manage)” is chosen, the result is the same as the Use the embedded profile option, it also will change the color appearance visibly.
    When the warnings for Profile mismatches are turned off in the Color Settings (which are off by default), the user has no choice and will see the color change in 2025 because the numbers are always used instead of the profile.

20. Real Time Drawing & Editing will not turn off for drawing shapes

    When I have Real Time Drawing & Editing turned OFF, shapes (rectangle, ellipse) still show up filled while drawing, instead of just the vector outline as expected.

    Steps to recreate:
    turn off real-time drawing & editing
    select random fill color
    select shape tool
    draw shape

    expected result: only vector outline is seen during drawing
    actual result: filled shape is seen during drawing

    I tested this and found the same behavior on both my Windows 10 desktop and my Windows 11 Laptop, both running Illustrator 29.8.1 (64-bit).

    There is no problem when moving an object, that still displays the vector outline as expected.

    Done (Available in Beta)  ·  AdminEgor Chistyakov (Admin, Adobe Illustrator) responded

    Fixed and works as it should do in Beta 30.0.0.72 — please try to install it (or update if it’s installed) and verify if it works for you, before it gets pushed into General build.
