  2. Color assets from Libraries cannot be applied to objects in Illustrator 30.0 (2026)

    After updating to Illustrator 2026, clicking a color swatch from the Libraries panel no longer applies the color to selected objects. The color swatch highlights but does not change the object’s fill or stroke.

    • Drag-and-drop from Libraries to objects or the Swatches panel does nothing.
    • Issue occurs with fill and/or stroke targeted.
    • Behavior worked normally in previous Illustrator versions

    Steps to reproduce:
    1. Open Illustrator 2026.
    2. Open the Libraries panel (Window → Libraries).
    3. Select an object on the artboard.
    4. Click a color swatch in Libraries.

    Expected result:
    The object’s fill or stroke should change to the selected…

  4. Frozen Libraries Panel in Illustrator 30.1

    This has happened to me in various CC programs, but Ilustrator is the one most persistent. Basically I have Illustrator open most of the day and am switching between various apps in my workflow. Most commonly, when I return to Illustrator after it has been open for a while the CC library panel will be frozen. I am unable to click on anything in there, and if I resize the panel it distorts the contents. Sometimes the panel is partially frozen and I find out by trying to apply a color swatch, but instead the click opens a graphic asset…

  8. Losing data saved in cloud

    I'm using version 2025 of Illustrator, if the files stored in the cloud re-run the program, all the text will disappear. Don't you really have to compensate me for losing data while paying a lot of monthly fees? I'm so angry.

  10. Non-global swatches in cloud libraries don't retain names when added in new documents

    I have a large cloud library with like 800 swatches for customers that I need to use in multiple different documents. Most of the swatches were uploaded with the global tag so when I use them later on, they still have their name when I add it to the documents. However, some of my swatches are missing the global tag so when I add them later on, they just automatically convert the selected object to CMYK and doesn't add it to my swatch panel.

    If it matters, my workflow is selecting the objects that need the new swatches, then clicking…

  12. CC Libraries don't retain Lab values of swatches

    If you create a color with Lab values in Illustrator or InDesign and add it to a CC Library, it will convert to CMYK in a new .indd doc and RGB in a new .ai file. We work in Lab 99.9% of the time, so this is super frustrating. We have a database of custom color mixes/names. It would save us a ton of time if we could use CC Libraries for this.

    The crazy thing is... if you make a rectangle with a fill of a custom spot color with lab values and save it as a Graphic, it…

  13. Issue when removing asset from Lib CCEnterprise Storage

    Quand la bibliothèque CC est créée comme une "marque" dans le "Stockage d'Entreprise" au lieu du stockage personnel, et que l'on supprime un des éléments de cette bibliothèque, la fenetre de visualistation de la bibliothèque s'efface complètement. et impossible de reéafficher le contenu sans quitter et relancer le programme.

    A priori celà ne se produit pas avec une lib CC en stockage perso.

  15. TIF files from Adobe Libraries are not supported

    TIF files from Adobe Libraries are not supported in Illustrator. This has been a problem for at least a year now that needs to be fixed. Unfortunately, we have had to create jpeg files and relink the graphics for all of our clients. I am unsure why that file type would not be supported.

  16. Align art to pixel grid applied by default when adding vector images to CC libraries

    Steps to reproduce: Select a vector graphic in an Adobe Illustrator file and click the Add ("+") icon at the bottom of the Libraries panel. Choose "Graphic." (note: the Illustrator file containing the graphic does not have "Align art to pixel grid" applied.)

    Expected result: The newly created library asset should not have "Align art to pixel grid" applied.

    Actual result: The library asset has "Align art to pixel grid" applied.

    I'm forced to uncheck "Align art to pixel grid," close, and then re-open the library asset. This removes "Align art to pixel grid" about half the time.

    I'm on…

  17. Cloud documents miss profile when downloaded

    Color profiles are missing when downloading .aic cloud documents from adobe.com/files or using the CC app, ICC profiles are missing. When opening the .aic files from the desktop application, the embedded profiles are still there.

  18. Adding cloud fonts is a terrible experience

    I click to use the cloud font and it should just download, it says it is downloaded and it is not. I have to remove it (which it doesn't show that it's on my system, it's a bug) and then re-add it.

  20. Paragraph style with bulletpoints doesn't apply bullets when coming from CC library

    When I make a new paragraph style with bullets or numbering in an Illustrator document, I would like to reuse that. When I copy the style to the CC library, and apply that in a new document: the bulletstyle or numbering is lost.
    Instead when I copy the textbox to the library, and place that in a new document, the paragraph styles behave identical to how they did in the original document.
    I would suggest to make an improvement there, and not break the functionality of the paragraphstyles when used in a proper way through the library.. For me this…
