  1. Illustrator最新版で A-OTF フォントが使用できない件について

    お世話になっております。

    現在、以下の環境で A-OTF フォントが Illustrator で使用できない 不具合が発生しております。

    環境

    macOS:15.6.1(Sequoia)

    Adobe Illustrator:最新版(28.x)

    Morisawa Fonts アプリ:最新版を使用

    フォント例:A-OTF ゴシックMB101 Pr5

    症状

    Illustrator のフォント一覧には A-OTF フォントが表示されるが、選択すると代替フォントに置き換わり使用できない。

    Photoshop など他の Adobe アプリ(Photoshop、InDesign)では同じフォントを正常に使用可能。

    Morisawa Fonts アプリ上では該当フォントはアクティブ化されている。

    実施済み対策

    Illustrator のアンインストール/クリーンインストール

    環境設定・キャッシュの削除

    Morisawa Fonts アプリの再インストール、ログイン/再アクティブ化

    macOS 再起動

    上記すべてを実施しても改善せず

    特記事項

    Illustratorを一つ古いバージョン(27.x)に戻したところ、問題なくフォントを使用できた。

    よって、最新版 Illustrator(28.x)と macOS 15.6.1 環境における A-OTF フォントの不具合である可能性が高いと考えられる。

    ご確認いただきたいこと

    Illustrator最新版と macOS 15.6.1 環境での A-OTF フォント非対応/不具合について既知の情報があるか

    修正版のリリース予定があるか

    回避策があればご教示いただきたい

  2. 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…

  3. Hyperlinks made in Attributes not working on final file, even when saving with "Preserve Hyperlinks"

    Hyperlinks don't work in the final PDF export even when exporting the file with "Preserve hyperlinks". It worked in the previous version but after the update last week, it just does not work.

  4. Pen tool can't close paths in draw behind mode in certain scenarios

    I'm drawing with the pen tool in draw behind mode. However, every time I start a path on where an anchor is of another path above it is located, I won't be able to close the path by clicking the starting anchor point. It will instead just create another anchor point in that exact same spot and continue the path.

  8. Disabling "Show The Home Screen When No Documents Are Open" corrupts custom workspace

    When "Show The Home Screen When No Documents Are Open" in General Preferences is disabled, the next time Illustrator is run, my custom workspace is corrupted, for lack of a better word. The toolbar and all panels are missing, and the Control Panel has become floating.

  10. "Can't define a pattern from the current art"

    Discovered in 29.8.1, also seen in beta 30.0.21. Both on MacOS 14.7.6.

    1. Draw some shapes. Select them.
    2. Object > Pattern > Make
    3. "Can't define a pattern from the current art" pops up instead of pattern edit mode.

    Dragging the shapes to the Swatch palette still works, luckily, so I can get on with what I want to do, but what the heck?


    oookayyy, further exploration reveals that it is something about one particular global color swatch?!? see attached file.

  11. Recent colors become None when Global or Spot Colors are used

    Some Recent Colors are displayed as the None Swatch when Spot or Global colors have been added to the Recent Colors.
    Turn on in the Edit > Color Settings all checkboxes for warnings about Mismatches or Missing profiles.
    The default is unchecked. When they are unchecked, you will get no warning when opening a file with Global (or Spot) Colors in the Recent Colors and the file just opens without showing the problem.
    When you have turned the warning checkboxes On in the Color Settings and have Quit Illustrator after adding the Global or Spot Colors in the Recent Colors,…

  12. CMYK colors get recalculated in a document with color mode changed from RGB to CMYK, using Color Picker

    According to the user, they often receive files created in RGB mode, and they have to convert them to CMYK, using File > Document Color Mode, make specific changes and push documents further. And while the document becomes CMYK, Ai keeps recalculating supplied values, as if these get double-converted via RGB space.

    There are easy steps to reproduce this problem from scratch.
    1. Create a new RGB document, using Web Document Profile
    2. Go File > Document Color Mode > CMYK
    3. Create a rectangle
    4. Open Color and enter a CMYK color, like 15-30-45-15, tabbing through values. Press Enter…

  13. Toggle Visibility Not Working in Layers Panel

    Windows 11 desktop, 12 GB graphics card, 32 GB RAM, Intel processor with 3.60 GHz, 64 Bit x64-based processor
    29.7.1 (64 bit)
    I am creating a design and trying to toggle the background layers to compare. When I click on the eye icon in the Layers panel, the layers sometimes go on/off and most often do not. Essentially, toggling visibility does nothing.

    I have checked that my layers are visible in the hamburger menu. I have restarted Ai and restarted my computer.

    My document is saved to the cloud - I did get an autosave is temporarily disabled warning and…

  14. テキスト右揃え不具合

    OS / Windows 11 Home 23H2
    Illustrator 2025(バージョン 29.1)

    右揃えテキスト中に四分アキ等の文字が含まれ、アキの設定を自動の場合、テキスト右端がズレます。
    自動設定ではなく、「アキなし」や個別にアキ量を「二分アキ」等に指定するとこの問題は解消されます。

  16. Threaded text areas display only first lines when Adobe Every-Line composer is used, since 29.6

    Issue: two or more threaded text areas no longer render all text inside. The text does still exist (as visible in View > Outline) but it does not render on screen or when exporting / saving out. Whereas text flashes visibility for single text areas with no threading, but does eventually show.

    Actions taken: fresh text areas; freshly typed text (not copy-pasted); fresh document with fresh areas and fresh text. All do not render fully. Also ensured text is at the very top with no unseen masks or shapes obscuring. Turning off and on Outline View, bounding box, edges etc.

  17. Eyedropper reports "nan" or inaccurate color

    Adobe Illustrator version 29.7.1.
    When picking a color with the eye dropper from a 2x2 raster image copied and pasted from Photoshop, on certain sub-pixel positions the eye dropper will return a "nan" color, and will fill all of its preview color windows to black. That, or it will be wildly inaccurate.
    Attached a screenshot and the .ai file.

  18. Embedded Grayscale Image Inverts When Unembedded from Illustrator 29.8.1 and Opened in Photoshop

    I’m encountering a consistent issue with Adobe Illustrator version 29.8.1 on Windows 10 (64-bit) involving grayscale images.

    When I unembed a grayscale image from an Illustrator file and open it in Photoshop, the image appears inverted (as a negative — colors reversed). This only occurs when the embedded image is in grayscale mode. Color images do not seem to exhibit this problem.

    This behavior did not occur in previous versions of Illustrator and seems to be specific to version 29.8.1.

    Steps to Reproduce:

    Open an Illustrator file (v29.8.1) with an embedded grayscale image.

    Unembed the image.

    Open the resulting file…

  19. CEPHtmlEngine keeps macOS awake

    CEPHtmlEngine erroneously keeps macOS awake by setting PreventUserIdleSystemSleep

    See details below, CEPHtmlEngine is unnecessarily keeping macOS awake using the power management API and asserting PreventUserIdleSystemSleep, on this device it has been asserting and renewing its assertion for 170 hours.

    This presents a massive physical security risk to enterprise customers as it defeats IT controlled sleep/screensaver/walkaway preferences to lock the computer.

  20. Newly installed fonts are not recognized

    In the past, when I activated or installed one or more new fonts with my font management program, Illustrator would indicate after a few seconds that the fonts had been recognized.
    If I do that today, I have to restart Illustrator so that the fonts are displayed as active in the program.
    Not nice.
    Can anyone help or is this a bug within Illustrator?
