Nested Linked AI Files don’t display proper fonts
Nested or linked AI files inside other AI layouts are not letting the fonts come through. It renders to default font.

Can't Link PDF
Cannot link PDF into an AI file. When opening the file an Unknown error is detected. Help us investigate further....
However opening Illustrator in a Intel based version on the M1 mac it will open without issue. However as this feature apparently is going to be removed it will cause major issues for me.
This needs to be fixed.1 vote -
Embedding linked EPS files in an over-sized artboard cause them to shrink to 10% and moves
When using an over-sized artboard, when I embed a linked .EPS - the .eps is scaled down to 10% of the original size AND it is moved to a seemingly random location on the artboard. This only happens with .EPS files. .AI and bitmap files are fine - they stay in the correct location and correct size.

Color profiles are silently discarded for the placed screenshot thumbnails on Mac
Can we fix the strange discarding of the color profile when dragging a screenshot thumbnail into an open Illustrator document (Mas OS — Command+shift+4, or Command+shift+3, or Command+shift+5). The thumbnail appears in the corner of the screen prior to the screenshot being saved to the Desktop.
Using File>Place, or copying/pasting from any other program, or even dragging and dropping a screenshot from the desktop or other folder all cue a warning if there is a profile mismatch. And to my experience, placing in any of those ways does not change the document profile, regardless of what I choose when the…

Linked ai file being cut off
a Flattened tiff is opened and then saved in illustrator with a mask as ai. It is placed in another ai. file and when that happens part of the image is cut off, and its not part of the mask. I tried making sure there was only one layer in photoshop and in illustrator, resaved it different ways and still comes out the same. seems to follow a few particular files and sometimes appears all black or part of it black or just cut off. the files are no different than the ones that do work.

Using blending modes with embedded images now gives darker colors
In version 28 transparency in embedded images doesn't work the same way it worked in version 27, thus making impossible to use older files with the new version.
Transparency (as in soft light, overlay...) gives a different result, usually darker, flatter.
Looks like the issue is with embedded images, not linked, but since I need to use images in patterns I need to embed them.1 vote -

Image trace limited palette no longer works in AI 27.1
Image trace does not use a limited palette when this option is specified in the tracing options.
Steps:
- Place photographic or other image with many colours
- Choose any of the limited colour presets (16 in this example) and trace
Expected result: Trace uses the specified number of colours
Actual result: Trace acts as if 'Automatic' was selected (or otherwise disregards limited palette)24 votesI am happy to share that we have fixed this bug in our latest release – 27.1.1 which is available worldwide now.
Going forward, our goal is to fix as many top User-Voice bugs as possible and as frequently as possible. Given the nature of the fixes, some of the bugs will take a longer time to fix, but we are on it.
You can update to the latest release using Creative Cloud desktop App: https://helpx.adobe.com/in/creative-cloud/help/creative-cloud-updates.html
Thank you for all the feedback. Keep it coming!

Replacing or updating an image often results in crashes

Before crashing, it loses the preview and can't be restored until closing and reopening the file. But even so, the crash is coming.1 vote -
The "Placement options" in the document have been replaced with the computer's final settings
I placed an 'img-1.ai' picture in Document-A with the placement option set to Bounding Box.
After saving and closing it, I created a new document, Document-B.
In Document-B, I placed the 'img-2.ai' picture with the placement option set to Bleed.
After saving and closing Document-B, I reopened Document-A.
The placement option for 'img-1.ai' had changed to Bleed.Why does the placement option not follow the document but instead follows the last-used setting?
If I send the document to the client, they will see the incorrect layout.2 votes -
EPS color bug
Adobe illustrator keeps changing the colors of .eps images that I link. Both profiles are set to RGB so that should not be a problem.

rotating and croping causing jagged banding
Rotating and croping an image leads to an odd banding pattern appearing through the image. This does not occur when clipping using a clipping mask or when only cropped or only rotated.

File adding images unnecassarily in file
When i reopen a file, illustrator has duplicated and randomly placed (and sized) images from within the file or even doubled the link that was in place. It adds an additional image for each link in the file and also asks them to be relinked! Very frustrating having to look through and clean up the file.

Illustrator crashes if you search in the file explorer to relink/change image
Windows 10 Pro (22H2)
Illustrator 28.0 (64 bit)When you try to relink/change an image you get the file explorer window.
Then you click on the search box and it freezes, only option is to cancel and return to Illustrator, but the program is frozen and the only solution is to kill it via the Task Manager.1 vote
