1. Font changes from the current one to the previously used while typing

   I'm working on a document in which I used Avenir font, but for the most I use Myriad Pro. When I click with the Type tool I see in the character box I'm with the default font (Myriad Pro) and start typing. Then noticed I'm now in Avenir font!
   This bug is brand new with the latest update (29.1), I didn't add any issue of that type before.
   I'm on Windows 11 PC Core i7-13700 32 Go of RAM

   This issue has been fixed in 29.2 release. Please update your Illustrator to latest version through Creative Cloud Desktop.

2. PDF export without color conversion converts RGB images to CMYK

   This is a bug that occurs in Illustrator 2025 (29.2.1) and later.

   When an RGB image is placed as a linked file in a CMYK document, it gets converted to CMYK upon PDF export, even if "No Color Conversion" is selected. In Illustrator 2025 (29.2.0) and earlier, the image remained in RGB.

   This bug affects only PNG and JPG files. Other formats, such as PSD, remain in RGB.

   Steps to Reproduce

   1. Create a new CMYK document.
   2. Place an RGB image (PNG or JPG) as a linked file (do not embed).
   3. Export the document as a PDF with "No Color Conversion" selected.

   How to Verify That RGB Images Are Converted to CMYK in PDF

   1. Open the exported PDF in Acrobat.
   2. Go to Print Production > Output Preview.
   3. Set Preview to "Object Inspector."
   4. Click on an image in the PDF.
   5. The object information will be displayed, showing the actual color mode.

   You will see that the RGB image has been converted to CMYK, even though it should have remained in RGB.

   Issues

   Users who lack in-depth knowledge of color profiles rely on workflows where RGB images in PDFs are properly converted to CMYK at the output stage. However, with this bug, RGB images are automatically converted to CMYK during PDF export, meaning that any inappropriate color profile settings at the time of linking will carry over, making quality control at the output stage impossible.

   Additionally, this issue affects not only exported PDFs but also the embedded compatibility PDFs in AI files. When an AI file is placed as a linked document in InDesign, InDesign reads only the compatibility PDF, making it impossible to verify whether the AI file contains linked RGB images.

   Expected Behavior

   When exporting a PDF with "No Color Conversion" selected, linked RGB images should remain in RGB.

   カラー変換なしでPDFに書き出してもRGB画像がCMYKに変換される

   Illustrator 2025 (29.2.1) 以降で発生するバグです。

   CMYKドキュメントにリンク配置されたRGB画像が、カラー変換なしでPDFに書き出してもCMYKに変換されてしまいます。2025 (29.2.0) まではRGBのままでした。

   このバグが発生するのは、PNGおよびJPG形式の画像のみであり、PSDなど他の形式の画像はRGBのままとなります。

   再現手順

   1. CMYKの新規ドキュメントを作成
   2. RGB画像（PNGまたはJPG）をリンク配置（埋め込まない）
   3. カラー変換なしでPDFに書き出す

   RGB画像がPDF内でCMYKに変換されていることの確認手順

   1. PDFをAcrobatで開く
   2. 印刷工程 > 出力プレビュー を開く
   3. プレビュー を「オブジェクトインスペクター」に設定
   4. PDF内の画像をクリック
   5. クリックした箇所のオブジェクト情報が表示される

   この情報にカラーモードが表示され、RGBのまま書き出したはずの画像がCMYKになっていることが確認できます。

   問題点

   カラープロファイルの知識が不足しているユーザーは適切なCMYK変換ができないため、PDF内のRGB画像を出力側で適切にCMYKへ変換するフローが存在します。しかし、このバグによりPDF書き出し時にCMYKに変換されると、リンク配置時の不適切なカラープロファイル選択がそのまま反映されてしまい、出力側での品質管理が困難になります。

   また、この問題は書き出したPDFだけでなく、aiファイルの互換PDFにも影響を及ぼします。IllustratorのaiファイルをInDesignドキュメントにリンク配置する場合、InDesignは互換PDFを読み込むため、aiファイル内にRGB画像がリンク配置されているかどうかをInDesign上で確認することができなくなります。

   期待する結果

   PDF書き出し時に「カラー変換なし」を選択した場合、リンク配置されたRGB画像はRGBのまま維持されるべきです。

3. Line Extension Smart Guide not working

   I recently updated my Illustrator to 2025 and my smart guides are on but when I extend a line now it is no longer snapping to "Line Extension". I have verified that in my preferences under Smart Guides, "Anchor/ Path Labels" is turned on. Not sure if this is a bug with the new update or what is going on.

4. "Apply to All" checkbox or "Replace All" button are missing AGAIN

   Apply to All option for missing/replacing links is missing again in version 28.5. Now instead of being able to click that and replace all links I know have to do the relink step up to 30 times every print file.

   Hello all,

   The 'Apply to all' checkbox has been brought back in the Replace missing link dialogue.

   'Apply to all' checkbox was removed when we introduced the 'Auto-relink' (search for missing links in this folder) functionality, as we though 'auto-relink' is going to take care of the 'replace all' workflow as well. But it didn't work as expected in few cases as pointed out by some of you.

   Hence, with the latest release V29.2 (full roll out happens on Jan 9), we have decided to revert to the earlier experience whereby we are bringing back 'apply to all' checkbox and rolling back the 'auto-relink functionality.

   Because of conflicts, both of these functionality cannot co-exist unless we make some significant changes to the relinking experience.

   As we understand, 'replace all' was a important workflow for most of you, so we decided to quickly bring it back while working on the overall link panel revamp which is going to take sometime.

   Thanks

5. Error in Startup Script - Line 2798: { No matching closing brace found

   I am getting an error on launch of Illustrator, seems to have begun with the latest update.

   ---

   Error in /Library/Application Support/Adobe/Startup Scripts CC/Adobe Photoshop/photoshop_v2025.jsx
   Line 2798: {

   No matching closing brace found

   The error can be dismissed and the application runs fine after that.

   Note that this is an error reffering to a startup script named "Adobe Photoshop", but the error comes up when launching Illustrator. Interestingly, there is no error when launching Photoshop.

   The current workaround, shared in comments:

   1. Uninstall Photoshop 26.5 (make sure to remove preferences)

   2. Reinstall Photoshop 26.5

6. Selecting a path no longer helps to select its anchor below another anchor above from an unselected path

   iMac running Ventura 13.5.2
   Illustrator 29.4

   Since the latest update (I think), I cannot select anchor points that are below others like I used to.

   Until now, I used to be able to click on the object from which I wanted to select an anchor point (black line in the movie), then click on the desired anchor point with the white arrow and it would select the anchor point from this object.

   Now it selects the anchor point from the other object that is above (red line). Which means now I need to bring the first object to the front before selecting its anchor point, then sending it back to the back when I'm done.

7. Asset export does not include appearance outside bounding box area of text objects (preview bounds are ignored)

   In Illustrator 2025 (using version 29.3.1), when exporting assets, appearance elements outside the bounding box area are cut off.
   In 2024 (28.7.5) and 2023 (27.9.6), all elements are exported without cutting.

   Reproduction Procedure
   1. create a text object
   2. add a bold stroke color to the text
   3. add as an asset export item
   4. export the asset

   Expected result
   Designs with stroke color should be exported as in previous versions without problems.

   Appendix.
   If a fill is added instead of a line and “path offset” is applied instead, this problem can be avoided because the bounding box is extended.

   2024（28.7.5）、2023（27.9.6）ではすべての要素が切れることなく書き出しできている。

   再現手順
   1. テキストオブジェクトを作成
   2. テキストに太い線カラーを追加
   3. アセット書き出し項目として追加
   4. アセット書き出し

   期待する結果
   線によるデザインでも問題なく、以前のバージョンのように書き出しされること

   付記
   線ではなく、塗りを追加して「パスのオフセット」を適用したもので代用した場合、バウンディングボックスは拡張されるためこの問題は回避することができる。

8. 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...

9. 「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.

10. Direct Selection tool selects anchors below objects

    Direct Selection tool wrongly selects points hidden underneath filled objects in front of them, when the cursor clicks into a highlighted point.

    It seems that only Windows it behaves as expected when 'Highlight anchors on mouse over' in Preferences > Selection & Anchor Display is enabled. Macs still select stuff underneath.

    Originally discussed here at forums: https://community.adobe.com/t5/illustrator-discussions/i-m-having-this-issue-with-every-file-now-in-illustrator-object-selecting/m-p/15254043

    Take a look at the GIF attached for a quick demonstration.

    Bundled together with this report, it renders selection in Ai pretty broken :(

    Step to reproduce
    1.縦組みのエリア内文字を作成する
    2.矩形ツールで矩形を描く
    3.エリア内文字と矩形を選択してメニュー「書式→スレッドテキストオプション→作成」を選択する。
    4.矩形が縦組みエリア内文字に変換されるが、スレッドテキストにはならずエリア内文字のコンテンツがコピーされた状態になる。

    期待する動作
    矩形がスレッドテキストとして正常にリンクされる。

    実際の結果
    スレッドテキスト→作成を実行してもスレッドテキストとならずコンテンツの状態もおかしい。

    回避策
    Tツールを使って手動でスレッドテキストをリンクさせる。

    縦組みに対するスレッドテキストオプションの挙動は全般おかしく、エリア内文字や矩形の構成や状態によって挙動が異なる場合がありますが、全般的に意図した通りに動作しない。
    また、おかしくなったエリア内テキストを手動でリンクさせようとするとIllustratorがクラッシュします。

    Selecting a stroke or fill from the control bar menu changes the active appearance. When using sliders, it doesn't. i have tested on different Windows 11 machines and different documents. Replicated the issue every time.

    We have fixed this issue in 29.2 release.

    
    

    Please update your Illustrator through Creative Cloud Desktop.

13. Exclusive to Mac Version: Lines Appear in PDF/x-4 Files, Not Present in Windows Version

    When placing a compatible PSD file (*1) into an AI document and exporting it as PDF/x-4, there has long been a bug where black lines appear on the edges of transparent areas. This issue has been fixed in the Windows version, but it remains unresolved in the Mac version, even in version 2024.

    The issue does not occur in the Windows version, even with the same version of Illustrator. It only happens on the Mac version.
    It occurs whether the PSD is linked or embedded.
    Even if an AI file is created on Windows and has no problems in the Windows version of Illustrator, lines will appear when opened on the Mac version.
    The exported PDF data actually has pixel abnormalities, and lines will appear regardless of whether you are using Mac or Windows.
    The lines may already be visible when you place the file. They become less noticeable when you use the CPU preview. This does not happen in the Windows version.

    *1) This refers to a transparent PSD file saved with Photoshop's "Maximize PSD and PSB File Compatibility" option turned on, and without a background layer.

    ★Mac版のみに、PDF/x-4保存で互換性ありPSDファイル出力の不具合がある

    互換性ありpsdファイル（※1）をaiドキュメントに配置しPDF/x-4で書き出すと、透明部分のエッジに黒い線が現れる不具合が昔からありましたが、Windows版では修正され、Mac版ではバージョン2024になってもこの不具合が残ったままになっています。

    ・同じIllustratorバージョンであっても、Windows版では起こりません。Mac版でのみ起こります。
    ・PSDがリンクされていても埋め込まれていても発生します。
    ・Windowsで作成し、Windows版Illustratorでは問題がないaiファイルであっても、Mac版で開くと線が現れます。
    ・書き出したPDFデータは実際にピクセルに異常があり、Mac/Win関係無く線が出た状態になります。
    ・配置した段階で既に線が見えることがあります。CPUプレビューすると薄れます。これはWindowsでは現れません。

14. Select and Unlock objects on canvas option breaks Direct Selection

    With 'Select and Unlock objects on canvas' enabled (and at least one object locked) Direct selection no longer can move points (and select them with single clicks).

17. Ai2025 - The Pencil tool has become unusable again! There's no accuracy—it’s too smooth!!!

    I’m here to post about the same issue I did in 2014.
    The Pencil tool has become unusable once again! It’s smoothing too much, even on the maximum accuracy setting (left first slider tick).

    Back in 2014, when Adobe rewrote the Pencil tool, you removed the previous numeric settings and replaced them with four ticks. All of them were too smooth and took too much control over the path, leading to imprecise bubbly and smooth drawings.

    I made a post about this back then, and Adobe was super nice to respond by adding a fifth lowest left tick with the previous lowest accurate settings, which I’ve been using for nearly 20 years now: "lowest fidelity, 0.5px smoothness, 0%."
    Here is the post I made in 2014:
    PLEASE PLEASE adobe. The new pencil tool has become unusuble to me
    https://community.adobe.com/t5/illustrator-discussions/please-please-adobe-the-new-pencil-tool-has-become-unusuble-to-me/m-p/5771656#M19352

    Now, after the 2025 update, the pencil tool once again is smoothing too much, even on the lowest accuracy setting. This is making mine and my colleagues work impossible because the tool doesn’t generate enough anchor points to create the detailed and organic edge illustrations we need. Not everyone is looking to draw smooth, bubbly shapes!

    This is crucial in an free hand drawn operation such as the pencil tool because anchor points act as the resolution of the path, determining the type of edges you want to express in your drawings. The character of the edge is essential for the final look.

    Why shouldn't we have more control over the path resolution, allowing for higher values? Currently, Illustrator seems to be leaning towards reducing the resolution of our paths, limiting our creative control leaning towards more smooth bubbly or geometric style.

    Inkscape is fantastic in this regard as it doesn't limit the resolution the artist gets to add to the path. It has a numeric setting where you can set what you need. Unfortunately inkscape falls short on other aspects of the freehand pencil drawing process, for instance you can't redraw over and over again and sculpt your path with the pencil tool as you can in illustrator.

    With this post I’m requesting:

    (1) To fix the bug and bring back the ability to generate more anchor points on the path for accuracty on the lowest tick with "lowest fidelity, 0.5px smoothness, 0%."

    (2) I'm also making an additional feature request for the ability to add even more anchor points than that by adding an even lower sixth tick that generates even more anchor points, with a setting like "lowest fidelity, 0.2px smoothness, 0%."

    Alternatively, and idealy, please bring back the numeric values like you had before that allow us to set the path resolution more precisely, similar to how Inkscape still handles it.

    This won’t slow down the application in any significant way—today's machines can handle it. I've pushed Illustrator to its limits for many years, and higher resolution paths have never been an issue. There's no reason to hold back on giving users more control over the paths and the style of their illustrations.

    I would love to assist in testing it out.

    Please Adobe.

    Thanks

    MacBook Pro Apple M1 Max PRO 64GB RAM.
    macOS Sonoma 14.7 (23H124)

    I have posted this in the adobe community forums also in hopes of a fix.

    Here follows some comparisons of anchor point generation to show the bug and the feature request on the bottom:

18. Bring to front/back not working with new update

    Manually right-clicking and selecting "bring to front" and "send to back" aren't working. The shortcut (ctrl + shift + [ or ] ) is also not working. This seems to have started after updating to version 29.4.

    Every tutorial I can find hasn't helped. This bug has massively increased my workload as I use this action every few seconds.

19. “Duplicate Artboards” in the Artboards panel duplicates from the last artboard in the selection

    Illustrator 2025 (29.4)

    When selecting multiple artboards in the Artboards panel and executing “Duplicate Artboards” from the panel menu, the duplication starts from the last artboard in the selection list (i.e., the bottommost among the selected artboards).
    
    This behavior is unintuitive and differs from previous versions.

    • 2023 (v27.9.6): Duplication starts from the first artboard in the selection (expected behavior)
      
    • 2024 (v28.7.5): Duplication starts from the last artboard in the selection (unexpected behavior)
      

    This suggests that the issue was introduced in the 2024 version.

    Steps to Reproduce

    1. Create multiple artboards
       
    2. In the Artboards panel, select multiple artboards
       
    3. From the panel menu, choose “Duplicate Artboards”

    Actual Result

    Duplication starts from the last artboard in the selection (the one that appears lowest in the Artboards panel).

    Expected Result

    Duplication should start from the first artboard in the selection (the one that appears highest in the Artboards panel), consistent with previous versions.

    「アートボードを複製」が、選択中の末尾のアートボードから複製される

    アートボードパネルで複数のアートボードを選択し、パネルメニューから「アートボードを複製」を実行すると、選択中のアートボードの中で一番下にあるもの（＝パネル上の末尾のアートボード）から複製が始まります。
    この動作は直感的ではなく、過去のバージョンとは異なっています。

    ・2023（v27.9.6）： 複製は選択中の先頭のアートボードから始まる（期待される動作）
    ・2024（v28.7.5）： 複製は選択中の末尾のアートボードから始まる（不自然な動作）

    このことから、本不具合は2024バージョンで新たに発生したものと考えられます。

    再現手順
    1. 複数のアートボードを作成する
    2. アートボードパネルで複数のアートボードを選択する
    3. パネルメニューから 「アートボードを複製」 を実行する

    実際の結果
    複製は、選択中のアートボードのうち、アートボードパネル上で最も下にあるものから始まります。

    期待される結果
    複製は、選択中のアートボードのうち、アートボードパネル上で最も上にあるものから始まるべきです（過去のバージョンと同様の挙動）。

    このバグはIllustratorフォーラムで報告されました。

    Expected result
    The original appearance is displayed using the embedded font.

    Actual result
    The encoded font is saved in the "Embedded Font Binary Data" included in the document's Dictionary, but is not used when the document is opened.

    I tested several things, and even if it is a Western font or CJK, it will be displayed in the preview if it is TrueType. Japanese fonts included in AdobeFont and Morisawa OTF, etc. are not used for display even though they are included in the document.
    There seems to be a problem with the processing of the font family name and style name.
