Charter font is misrendered at small sizes
The Italic version of the Charter font that comes standard on macOS is misrendered at small sizes by several Adobe programs, including Illustrator and Acrobat.
Steps to reproduce on macOS:
- Create some text in a new document, ideally including the character "A"
- Set the typeface of the text to Charter Italic
- Simply zoom out until the "A" is shown with obvious artefacts. Zooming in again resolves the issue. See attached screenshot of the same text rendered at larger and smaller sizes, for comparison.
Notes:
This affects not just the "A" character, but it's the most noticeable with it. Notably, it…

Glitch in Convert to Shape > Rounded Rectangle effect
When applying Convert to Shape > Rounded Rectangle effect to an object, and applying a corner radius larger than the shape can support, one side of the rounded rectangle is given an extra anchor point with adjustment handles that make an overlap visible. This only occurs on one side of the object.
The desired result is that the corners meet at a single anchor point, as on the right hand side of the objects in the attached AI file.

Can't right click to open context menu after selecting new object
Right-clicks very often (but not quite 100% of the time) fail to open the context menu if the right mouse button is clicked straight after selecting a new object and the mouse pointer has not moved between the left-click (that selects the new object) and the right-click.
Moving the mouse pointer even a little after selecting a new object makes right-clicks register correctly. The clicks will also register correctly if the user waits about 0.5 seconds before right-clicking, when not moving the mouse.
If the right-click fails to register, clicking the button again will work, even without moving the mouse…

Automatic numbering does not continue in linked area type
While using automatic numbering, an area text linked to another Artboard or within the Artboard restarts the numbering from 1 after moving the overflown text to the second linked type area. Please add option to choose restart the numbering or continue numbering with user preference. Another issue is that one point with continuing the lines to the next type area also starts with numbering rather than considering the continuation of the last line from first type area.

GPU Preview Disables GPU Preview & Crashes erase Embedded Files
Running Illustrator 27.8.1 on macOS Ventura 13.5.1
MacBook Pro 16" 2022
M2 Max
32 GBEvery now and then Illustrator switches to CPU Preview and disables GPU Preview. This can be fixed (most of the time) by saving, closing the file, and re-opening it.
Somewhat related, Illustrator crashes daily, and when opening the recovered file, all embedded images are either invisible, black, or turn into noise. When looking at the "Links" panel, those files show up as 0 bytes in size.
Weirdly enough, general performance is fine.

Arrow keys used in Color panel don’t force canvas to update in version 27.1.1 (2023)
Whenever Arrows or Shift+Arrows key are used to quickly increment the value in a field in th Color panel, without GPU (or with Overprint Preview, which is done with CPU), — the color does not get updated on canvas, while in 26.x version it works just fine.
The CPU canvas now gets updated only when Tab or Enter get pressed. Pressing an arrow key, with or without a modifier, is a finite operation, and should trigger the redraw event too!9 votes -

Selecting a shape selects multiple unrelated objects
I'm trying to select a shape on my artboard and it automatically selects multiple objects even though they are not grouped or linked together in an way. Also, an object is getting selected even though I'm trying to click another object on the artboard. There seems to be some kind of margin around that object but it is just a shape that I created, no clip mask or anything of that sort was applied to the object. Is there a way to figure out what actions were applied to an object when clicked? If not, that could come handy.

A size of a selection with a certain object inside is calculated wrong
Take a look at the GIF attached and the document.
When the text object is selected, Illustrator fails to calculate the size and coordinates of the selection and uses the previous values.- Open the file and display both Transform and Control panel (I don’t know if Properties panel does the same, because it’s just completely empty for me — another bug)
- Select the object with numbers — both panels display all zeroes (but Control has editable fields, while Transform have them disabled)
- Select any of two rectangles the document — panels display correct size (150×450 mm) and proper coordinates
- Select…
