Navigation button (up, down, left right) not working
I am using the latest Adobe Illustrator on windows and it's always the navigation button (up, down, left, right) cannot work. Tried to use Shift key, but still not working. Been like this for a half year. Also, you should be able to permit us using mouse to zoom in/out. Otherwise, it's a nightmare for fast-paced workers.

Placed .ai artboards drop graphic elements randomly. This is disgusting for printers
The screenshot shows the placed artboards from - top row: .ai artboards, bottom row: pdf artboards. The circled portions show logos were dropped from the artwork arbitrarily.
When the .ai file is opened normally, it displays correctly - but not when placed.
This is a separate issue from placed artwork not displaying transparencies accurately.
This is supposed to be a professional level program and printing bugs are getting to be too much and costing my company too much in unnecessary reprints. PLEASE FIX.

[Bug] Perceptual Gradients change from CMYK to a RGB conversion of CMYK?
When I create a white to black gradient in CMYK mode as classic and it looks fine when separations previewed. When I change to peceptual it adds color in the areas from about 1% to 99% and does not stay black only. I tried it with 100% cyan to white and it added magenta and yellow in the same areas.

freedom gradient works only on half of the object if it has a clipping mask
When applying a Freeform Gradient to an object that uses a clipping mask, the gradient is rendered only on part of the visible area instead of the entire clipped object. The remaining portion of the object appears unaffected by the gradient, as if the gradient calculation were limited to only a section of the underlying geometry.

New proofread feature finds that dummy text is violating the community guidelines
This is more fun that a real problem, but some people may be irritated that the new proofread function finds words that violate the community guidelines when used on standard "Lorem ipsum ..." dummy text. ;-)
Maybe this should be whitelistet somehow.

Auto activate fonts option turns back on by it self
Auto font activate keeps turning back on after I turn it off. I do not want it on because I use my own font service and sometimes I already have the fonts. When it auto adds the font it makes it so the font doesn't work at all then I have to go in cc app and scroll forever (because there is no search) to remove the font.
Apparently the only fix is to completely turn of adobe fonts from the CC app which will remove all adobe fonts which is not what I want to do!! I still use…

Unicode - or wrong code - in file names
File names with strange characters produce strange and inconsistent info in the DocumentAfterSave and DocumentAfterActivate events. I keep adding regexes to my "fix name" routine....
These messages belong to the same file:
<documentAfterActivate><url>file:///X:/Symbole/Ornamente,%20grafische%20Designelemente,%20Blumendekor,%20einfache%20Grundformen/Designelemente%20basierend%20auf%20geometrischer%20und%20konstruierter%20Grafik%20%B9%20Basis-edit.ai</url><name>Designelemente basierend auf geometrischer und konstruierter Grafik ¹ Basis-edit.ai</name></documentAfterActivate>

White looks gray in Overprint Preview
The recent update to 29.8.1 now shows whites as grays in overprint preview. This changed feature now added leaving users unable to turn it off creates a massive problem when building anything containing white elements that are mixed or overprinting with or near grey elements. It is also a huge issue when sharing PDFs created in the new 29.8.1 with users who may not have the wherewithal to open their settings and start changing overprint settings.
Having been an artworker using Illustrator for over 20 years now, in which time I have seen some real clangers get through, but this…

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 :(

Color fill turning grey when selecting outside of Gamut area
I am selecting colors for CMYK that are not out of Gamut, and it is still turning grey. Very annoying. I've been having so many issues with Illustrator not performing as expected.

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…2 votes -
Stroke issues with text containers when exporting into SVG
When exporting to SVG, text frames are interpreted as separate entities and inherit stroke/fill attributes from the text or group they are in. This results in unwanted strokes around the text frame itself. With other formats there are no issues.
Attached a native-export-png and a result of a svg-export-png.
