1. Live Paint + Eyedropper recolors entire Live Paint group (macOS)

   Product/Version: Adobe Illustrator 2026 — v30.1
   OS: macOS 26.2 (Build 25C56)

   Issue:
   When a Live Paint group is selected, using Live Paint Bucket (K) and Option/-click to temporarily switch to the Eyedropper samples a color but also recolors all faces inside the Live Paint group to that sampled color. This prevents using the Eyedropper to “pick a color to paint with” without changing existing fills.

   Expected result as in previous versions: Option-click while using Live Paint should only sample/set the active paint color, without changing existing faces in the Live Paint group.

   Actual result: All faces in the selected Live Paint group change to the sampled color.

   Steps to Reproduce:
   - Create artwork with multiple enclosed faces and group them
   - Select the group with Selection Tool (V)
   - Switch to Live Paint Bucket (K) and click a face to create a Live Paint group.
   - Hold Option/Alt (temporary Eyedropper) and click a color on another object.

   Observe: the entire Live Paint group’s faces recolor to the sampled color.

   Frequency: 100% (whenever the Live Paint group is selected)

   Workaround: Deselect all (Cmd+Shift+A) before sampling, then continue painting, or option+shift with eyedropper.

2. Hitting Down with an artboard selected in Artboards panel now moves it on canvas instead of in the list

   In the newest update, if I have an artboard highlighted in the panel and I hit the down arrow, it used to go down the artboard list. But now it nudges the actual artboard.
   I acknowledge that nudging artboards could maybe be useful for something (though I can't think of what) but being able to navigate the list with arrows is much more valuable in my opinion.

   To navigate artboards in the the panel, without zooming into them, hold Opt/Alt with arrows keys (up/down work the same way as left/right).

3. Changing the Japanese font in the Type tool does not update it.

   macOS Tahoe 26.2
   Adobe Illustrator (Desktop version) 30.2.1

   Changing the Japanese font in the Type tool does not update it.
   This occurs even when "Enable missing glyph protection" is initially set to OFF and no other settings are changed.

   This does not occur in macOS Vetura13.7.8

4. Illustrator changes text after modifying a text box with White Arrow tool

   Illustrator changes text after modifying a text box with White Arrow tool. Its been happening for a few weeks. I work in a professional big corporate company and its changing my layouts after I am doing changes and it is really problematic.

   This needs fixing right away. In packaging if some text is changed after I make layout changes it can have serious legal ramifications.

5. Strange loops and spikes when using pressure-sensitive brushes with XP-Pen Tablet on Illustrator 29.3 and newer on Windows 11

   An employee directed me to this forum to explain my problem (I explained everything here: https://community.adobe.com/questions-652/inconsistent-strokes-when-using-pressure-sensitive-brushes-with-xp-pen-tablet-illustrator-30-2-1-windows-11-1553544)

   My system:
   Windows 11, Version 25H2 (Windows Ink is deactivated, tried with activated too).
   Old tablet: Artist 12 Pro (XP-Pen)
   New tablet: XP-Pen Deco Pro MW
   I tried all available Illustrator versions (I will explain later).

   I am getting very weird and inconsistent strokes when drawing with a tablet and the Blob Brush Tool (please see screenshot and video attached EDIT: video too big pls see the article from the other forum, the video is posted there).

   I did a ton of troubleshooting (new drivers, new installations, new Windows installation, new tablet, different settings in Illustrator, the tablet, the graphics card, etc.). I also worked on a different PC - same problem.

   Then I tried different Illustrator versions and noticed that the problem appears in version 29.3 and newer.
   In 29.1 and 29.2 the paths look fine. (I am working with 29.2 at the moment as 29.1 had a bugged Smooth Tool.)

   My theory:
   Since this only appears with the Blob Brush, I think Illustrator somehow messes up the outer strokes of the Blob Brush. (Maybe this is even related to the bugged Smooth Tool in 29.1?) But I can't find any settings that affect the shape the Blob Brush creates.

   So here I am - thanks for reading, any help would be greatly appreciated.

   Need More Info  ·  AdminIllustrator Engineering (Software Engineer, Adobe Illustrator) responded

   Hi,

   
   

   We weren't able to reproduce this issue on our end, so we'd like to gather a few more details to help us investigate further:

   
   

   1. Wacom/tablet driver version- Could you share the exact driver version you're currently using?

   2. Did this issue appear immediately after upgrading to a specific Illustrator version?

   3. Illustrator version currently installed?

   
   

   Regards,

   Aishwarya

6. Font styles applied to portions of text 'slide' / shift positions when area type overflows

   Illustrator 29.7.1 on Mac Ventura 13.5.2 (22G91)

   I dont' know whether it's related to this current issue, but now I have parts of my text that change appearance when I'm trying to change the Font weight of another part, or when I try to type more text.

   The workaround I have found it copy-pasting the text into a new Textbox. But still, this needs to be fixed.

7. プレビュー用のPDFの文字が化けました

   macOS Sequoia 15.6.1
   Adobe Illustrator v29.7.1
   他社で作成されたCentury Gothic Regular が使われているIllustratorドキュメント（作成バージョンは29.7）を開いて修正して保存した。
   このデータはInDesignドキュメントにリンク配置されていた。
   InDesignドキュメントの表示の、Century Gothicの数字が異なる数字になっていた。
   1→3、0→2 のように。
   修正した環境にはCentury Gothicがインストールされていない。Font Bookに表示されない。
   が、Illustratorはフォントエラーを表示することなく、開いた。
   PDFを書き出すと、正常に表示される。
   プレビューのPDFのみ化けている。
   その後、調べてみると、Illustrator内では「/System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/FontServices.framework/Versions/A/Resources/Fonts/ApplicationSupport/CenturyGothic.ttc」が使用されていることがわかった。
   また、Illustrator v28.7.9ではプレビューのPDFが正常に表示された。
   さらに、「/System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/FontServices.framework/Versions/A/Resources/Fonts/ApplicationSupport/CenturyGothic.ttc」を適当なFontsフォルダにインストールすると、Illustrator v29.7.1でもプレビューのPDFが正常に表示された。
   コミュニティの記述にv29.2.1までダウンバージョンすると様々なバグが回避できるとあったので、ダウンバージョンしてみたが、やはり化ける。
   v29.0までダウンバージョンしてみたが、全て化けた。
   再現方法としては、
   1. Century Gothicをライブラリ/Fonts フォルダに入れる
   2. Illustratorでドキュメントを新規作成
   3. 数字を入力
   4. 書体をCentury Gothic Regularにする
   5. 保存して閉じる
   6. Century Gothicをライブラリ/Fonts フォルダから外す
   7. 5.のドキュメントを開く
   8. 修正して保存（または別名保存）
   以上を、各バージョンのIllustratorで実行。
   InDesignに貼り付けるまでもなく、Finderのプレビューで確認できる。

   修正は最新の30.3一般リリースに反映されています。アップデート後、問題が解消されているか確認し、引き続き問題が発生する場合はご報告ください。

   開発チームによると、macOS版Illustratorのフォント処理方法を変更し、一貫性を向上させ、サポートされていないシステムリソースへの依存度を低減したとのことです。その結果、Appleのガイドラインに従い、Illustrator 30.3以降ではシステムフォントが使用できなくなります。

   The fix has been pushed into the latest 30.3 general release. Please update, check, and comment back if it still happens.

   According to the team, they changed font handling in Illustrator on macOS for better consistency and reduced reliance on unsupported system resources. As a result, system fonts won’t be accessible in Illustrator 30.3 and later, according to the Apple’s guidelines.

8. Unknown Error when saving

   Windows - Adobe Illustrator 2026

   When saving files for a proof - Press Quality, no editing, password, low resolution printing, no changes, no enabling copying of text - this error comes up on the first attempt every time.

   If I save it a second time, this error doesn't happen. I wasn't receiving this issue until I updated to 30.2.1, but it was rare. Now that I've updated to 30.3 it became every time I saved a new file for the first time. As much as I want the turntable feature, I'm going to have to use 30.1 again until the issue is resolved. Having this error come up so often is slowing down production.

9. Bug - Graduated stroke colors automatically changed!

   A graduated stroke color was in a saved file applied to a brush stroke. I had not been in the file for several months. The preview appeared full color, but when I opened the file, it was like the opacity of the colors had been turned down, except they hadn't been! Inside the file, it appears faint. But the stroke does not indicate the opacity has been reduced. It is so confusing since the file has not been opened for over two months.

   Don't know if it is a gradient or brush stroke issue or a compatibility issue.

10. Illustrator insanely not optimized

    It's unbelievable that I have a 2025 recent PC, AMD Ryzen 9 9900X3D, 64Gb RAM DDR5 6200MHz, RTX 5070 Ti, M2 gen5 11500m/s and Illustrator 2026 is super slow, with a lot of lag when zooming in and out, the tools behavior also super slow. Honestly, the worst version so far.

12. All fonts disappeared in Font Explorer list

    I work on PC with the latest version of Illustrator, version 30.1. None of my fonts show in the drop-down menu. I've deleted and reinstalled Illustrator, deactivated and reactivated the auto-activate Adobe fonts option, checked whether Adobe fonts are synced through the Creative Cloud App. Nothing seems to work, while they work fine on Photoshop and InDesign. The only way I can use a font is by using the Eyedropper tool on an already existing body of text. How do I fix this? Please help!

13. Font drop down list won't allow font selection.

    Mac Studio
    Sequoia 15.6.1
    Adobe Illustrator 2026 version 30

    My font drop-down list allows me to preview fonts, but not select them. If I preview and click a new font to select it, the type window closes and my select text reverts to the original font. I've tried using the text tool and the selection tool - same problem. To change a font, I must type the ENTIRE NAME in the font window and hit return. Very time consuming. :(

15. Ai won’t change the fill of an object when using Shape Builder exactly according to rules

    A minor quirk of the Shape Builder.
    Following this post by Hanako Igarashi (hamko): https://x.com/hamko1114/status/2035911311763399048?s=20

    As per the post, when Shape Builder tool is selected, the color chosen in the Color panel, Swatches, or Color Picker, won’t recolor the selected objects (that is a big difference with Live Paint tools, that would recolor the selection, unless a 'Live Paint Select' selection is made), but use the set color to force on a result of the next Shape Builder Union operation.

    This happens only when 'Pick Color From' option is set to 'Swatches' in the tool’s options (called by Enter)... and it happens to be the default behavior I get when I reset the Preferences! Plus, the 'Cursor Swatch Preview' option seems to be disabled, and it makes the use of keys in the Live Paint style unclear...

    We have two helpx articles on this, and the second helps here:
    1. https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/using/creating-shapes-shape-builder-tool.html
    2. https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/using/building-new-shapes-using-shape.html#setting_the_shape_builder_tool_options

    So we can sort this out... It’s just odd the default option the default article suggest isn’t a default one used.

    However, with the 'Swatches' option enabled, if I temporarily hold Cmd/Ctrl while using Shape Builder, to pick a Selection tool, and select an object, the color in Color, Fill/Stroke, Swatches, Control, Appearance, Properties — all places that display the current color — won’t update to the actual current fill used by the object, nor allow to change the color, as if Shape Builder overruling still, despite Cmd/Ctrl is being held.
    I think this should be changed.

16. Windows Explorer freezes when Saving As PDF

    • Fresh install of Windows 10 Pro. Fully up-to date (as of Feb. 27, 2026). DXdiag attached.
    • Illustrator 30.2.1 (64-bit) ** Only Illustrator and Photoshop installed (via Creative Cloud application)

    1. Open AI file
    2. Save as.. PDF
    3. Choose a PDF option, click Save
    4. Click Windows Start Menu icon (or any other icon on the task bar) - Windows task bar (explorer.exe) will be unresponsive
    5. To remedy, Ctrl-Alt-Del and open Task Manager -> Right-click Windows Explorer -> Restart

    I literally have to do this every time I start Illustrator. It then seemingly stay stable for awhile, but then will randomly lock up Windows Explorer again after working for awhile. It seems to most often happen when using the Type tool, and clicking on other parts of the Workspace.

    This is infuriating, and has caused me to entirely reinstall the Operating System to try to find a remedy. Nothing has worked.

    • Fresh install of Windows 10 Pro. Fully up-to date (as of Feb. 27, 2026). DXdiag attached.
    • Illustrator 30.2.1 (64-bit) ** Only Illustrator and Photoshop installed (via Creative Cloud application)

    1. Open AI file
    2. Save as.. PDF
    3. Choose a PDF option, click Save
    4. Click Windows Start Menu icon (or any other icon on the task bar) - Windows task bar (explorer.exe) will be unresponsive
    5. To remedy, Ctrl-Alt-Del and open Task Manager -> Right-click Windows Explorer -> Restart

17. Swatches don’t display names on hover

    Please restore the display of color names when hovering over a color swatch in the palette.

    Enabling Show Tool Tips in Preferences > General helped to have the names for swatches on hover back

18. Area type centering option not working, text jumps to top of frame

    When creating text frame with area type (it is not threaded nor multiple columns) set to center vertically, the text jumps to the top and will not center align at all. This is a function I have used in 2025 with no issues and now it will not work at all in 2026.

    Done (Available in Beta)  ·  AdminEgor Chistyakov (Admin, Adobe Illustrator) responded

    This problem is reportedly fixed in the latest Beta Build 30.5.0.18. You can update and test if it’s truly gone.

    However, please not there are some known issues with this particular build:

    • Opening recent files from Home Screen Recent section is not working (opening recent files from File > Open Recent Files works fine).
    • Generative Expand does not open its own HUD when used after Generate Vector, Generative Shape Fill, or Sketch to Vector. Instead, the previous tool's HUD is displayed and Generative Expand remains inaccessible. Workaround: Ungroup the generative content first, then apply Generative Expand.
    • Half of Astute Graphics plugins can’t get loaded. Both teams are now aware of the problem.

19. The tooltip about the ability to smooth a part of the path get displayed many times instead of once until tried

    The tooltip about being able to use the direct selection tool to select only a few anchor points and smooth just that portion is helpful... once. Afterwards, it's just distracting. Please have it turn off either after the first time it appears, or if the user has successfully done this maneuver at least once.

20. DICカラーの表示がおかしい

    Ver30.3で新規ファイルを作成したうえでカラーにDIC指定をすると、色がくすんで表示されます。CMYK値に変換したとき、くすんだ色のままの数値になってしまいます。
    新規ではなく以前作ったファイル上でDICカラーを指定した場合はこれまで通りの表示になっています。
    設定の変更で対応可能でしょうか？

    Got resolved with toggling the way Spot Colors are handled with a dedicated Spot Colors option in the Swatches panel’s dropdown menu
