making postscript file
i working with illustrator from cs4 and cs5.
in cs5 version of illustrator when i print my artwork to a postscript file with the generic post script driver, the default path for saving file was the path of saved current document or latest saved location, and that was very good and time saver for me.
but in CS6 and later versions, the default location for save file is "this pc" or my computer ...
and this is very time vested process.
with the best regards.

Hitting "enter" key when specifying page range of 'Save to PDF' on mac broken
Running AI on Mac 10.13.6 with AI 22.1.
On all programs, when a dialog box is 'highlighted' you can hit 'enter' which will do that action. There is a new bug on save to PDF on Mac at least. Should be very easy to fix guys!When you Save as PDF, and you have a multi-artboard file - if you want to save out a couple of the pages to PDF, you click 'Range' and type the page range, ie. 2-3. Usually I would always do this and then hit enter, as there is no point picking up the mouse.

Command-s save reverts back a few steps
Sometimes saving the document (command-s) causes it to revert a few steps back. WHAT? What is going on with all this weirdness!

Tool Menus Errors: Tool menus click through into the tool options below them.
Tool Menu Interface Errors:
I have my Character Tools on Top, then my Swatches below, then my Transparency tools.
I click to change transparency setting and the color swatches are below, thus what ever I click in the menu clicks through into the swatches and thus my color changes. Same issue when I change fonts.
I click the multiply option in my transparency tools and that menu pops up over the swatches, thus whatever I click, clicks through the little menu and into the swatches color. See attached or you won't understand.

Choose where to place new artboard
Choose where to place new artboard, like how Illustrator used to act:
Please bring back the ability of a user to control where new artboards appear, rather than Illustrator always putting it next to whatever artboard might be selected or last one made. In earlier versions of Illustrator, users could make a new artboard in any particular location by simply clicking the artboard tool in the paste board.
It is SO frustrating to make a new artboard in some odd location and then have to move it to where you wanted it to be in the first place.

Stop automatically changing RGB files to grayscale when working with colors
Illustrator takes an RGB file and converts it to grayscale when changing the color of paths. For example- in an RGB file I change a path to red. Illustrator turns the path gray and converts the file to grayscale. I then have to convert the file back to RGB in order for the path to show as red.

Linked image file cannot be deselected
I have an infuriating problem with selected linked files that's been going on for years now.
If a linked file becomes selected (often by dragging within it's area to select other items) it is then impossible to deselect it again. I generally work with the Path Selection Only option on but a link often gets selected anyway and then this problem occurs. It's usually necessary to close the document to get out of it.
Occasionally, deselecting the file in the links panel used to work, but this problem has generally got worse. It sometimes results in editing an item unintentionally.

Font style descriptor repeated in the Font's name
I just created and exported a new font using Glyphs app.
While I was testing it, I realize how the style descriptor "Regular" appeared in the name as well.
Tried to fix this with Glyphs support as long as I discovered it's this way only on Illustrator.
No repetition on Photoshop or other non-Adobe apps.
Problem goes away if I have 2 or more styles, but other single-styled fonts (like Impact) don't have this repetition.

Freeform gradient lighter at edges
Windows 10 running Illustrator 23.0.1.
Created 2 colour swatches - light blue and dark blue.
Applied a freeform gradient using the 2 swatch colours.
Created a solid fill object underneath with the light blue swatch.
The freeform gradient's light blue doesn't match the solid light blue; the gradient is lighter.2 votes -

"Create Outlines" is causing text to move from its original position !
When outlining text in artwork to send to the printer, the text moves from its original position by a fraction.
This is catastrophic for finished art purposes.
Dealing with misaligned print can be hard enough without the file being off from the beginning.MacOS Sierra

Undo function in Illustrator 23.0.2 (64-bit) is behaving funny. It is doing one simple undo of a transformation after 2-3 steps. Sometimes the undo totally gets disabled resulting frustration!

Start Screen/Blank Screen Persists
Every time I close an Adobe window, AI, PS, Acrobat, it leaves a "home screen" up. This is annoying in the extreme. I can uncheck show this screen in prefs, but then it just leaves a blank black slate up there. Equally annoying. When I close a document, I expect the app to not still be there in my way. Please fix this. We pay a bunch of money for access to these great tools of the trade, give us the ability to make them work like we prefer. Thank you. I am aware this is not technically a bug,…

Scrolling mouse wheel over Stroke Weight Bug
To re create the bug:
1) Draw a path with the default path tool.
2) Highlight the path by clicking and dragging across it.
3) Open the Stroke Panel
4) Using a mouse that has a scroll wheel (in my case a $20 Logitech mouse), scroll up or down while the mouse pointer is hovering over the number for the stroke weight.
5) The weight does not change until you go 2 full weights passed the original weight.Sometimes the weight will change but what often happens is that the weight must go at least 2 weights before 1 weight…

🐛 Illustrator CC2018 doesn't show certain font styles while Adobe Xd does.... [BLOCKER!!!!]
The font style is visible in all tools but not in Illustrator and Photoshop. What is more than annoying... A hotfix would be nice because it's definitively a colossal blocker!

Artwork won't display on artboard, but in the layers panel, navigator etc.
AI 23.0.1 / MacOS 10.14.2
When an additional file is opened it sometimes shows the content of a previously opened file on the artboard.
In the layers panel or the navigator the correct content is displayed.
Also upon undocking the tab the correct content is displayed.
Only workaround I found so far is restarting AI.2 votesPlease accept my sincere apology for the inconvenience.
