  1. White lines added around exported JPGs

    When I'm exporting images from Illustrator using 'Export Assets', often white lines or lighter lines are added on random edges of the images.

    Screenshot shows image in Illustrator and exported image showing lighter row of pixels on image edge.

  2. Windows版Illustratorで図形を描画すると、マウスカーソルの移動に沿って大量に生成される

    OS : Windows 10
    CPU : Core i5-9300H
    GPU : Geforce RTX 2060
    Illustrator : 26.0.2

    Windows版Illustratorで図形を描画する際に、マウスカーソルの移動に沿って図形が大量に生成されてしまいます。

    PC起動直後にIllustratorのみ起動している状態では発生しないことは確認できていますが、上記のバグが発生するタイミングはまちまちであり、どういった条件で発生するかの特定は難しいです。

    以下のフォーラムで報告されている現象と同様です。

  3. Menu windows eventually are inoperable

    Usually once per day my file menu windows become inoperable, they are completely white. This has only started happening since the most recent update. The only way out of it is to shut down. It doesn't even let me save. I'm running Windows 11 and the version is 26.4.1.

  4. Copy-Paste from CAD

    In Windows (or earlier versions, I don't know where could be the difference) I could simply Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V from a AutoCAD drawing to Illustrator and it would paste the lines perfectly (as a group though).
    Now in Mac, it pastes a temp file direction.
    How can this be fixed? Thanks!

  5. reading XMP data in scripts broken by 25.4 update.

    Illustrator 25.4 update broke scripts that try to read XMP data that worked in previous versions of Illustrator. This is the Mac version (have not tried in Windows).

    It appears to be getting the error on this line:

    ExternalObject.AdobeXMPScript = new ExternalObject('lib:AdobeXMPScript');

    Comparing the frameworks in the package contents for 25.3.1 vs 25.4, the AdobeXMPScript framework appears to be missing in 25.4.

    Below is an example script to read font data that worked in 25.3, but errors loading the library in 25.4

    // load XMP Library

    function loadXMPLibrary() {

    if (!ExternalObject.AdobeXMPScript) {  
    
       try {  
    
           ExternalObject.AdobeXMPScript = new ExternalObject('lib:AdobeXMPScript');  
    
       } catch

  6. M1 Apple McBook - Crashing

    I just got a new MacBook Pro with the M1 Apple chip. Illustrator keeps freezing and crashing. It also causes my whole computer to crash! I heard many other people are having the same problem. It is unusable by this point!

    This issue (entire M1 MacBook system freezes) is fixed for AI 25.0.1 and 25.1 This fix takes effect in a day's time, if you still face this entire system freeze then please follow the steps to update:

    1). Backup your preferences and launch Illustrator with fresh preferences

    2). Quit and re-launch Illustrator once again

    3). Use Illustrator in your workflow.

    If you see AI crash and entire system is not freezing then please create a new issue.

  7. Export for Screens doesn't remember settings.

    Export for Screen Doesn't remember my settings.
    Every time I restart Illustrator, I have to set again my Export for Screen setting.

    I have project where I want to export few different sizes PNGs and a PDF, so it is getting a bit tedious to set those again every time I restart Illustrator. And of course it doesn't remember Export folder either.

    It really amaze me how Adobe can brake some basic functionality like this.

  8. Stroke weight is not showing when we increase in small number, stroke weight appears only the point is more than 1000

    When I try to increase the stroke weight in small number it is not visible,
    If the stroke weight is more than 1000pt only then it is slightly visible.

    I am facing this issue from 25th June onwards... not sure why it is

  9. Package dialog resets folder name when a new destination is chosen

    If you enter a custom folder name in the Package dialog, then change the location to export to, the folder name resets to match the file and does not retain the custom folder name.

    Expected behaviour is for the custom folder name to persist when changing the export location.

  10. strange messages when saving

    this started with 26.5 update: saving a file shows a message that some variable text is converted to paths in the save progress dialogue.
    Since in some older version this message sometimes came before a crash with data loss, I verified the file - no text objects at all. Also it seems that the message is related to the amount of material saved

  11. SVG export - ignores object style when fill is empty

    While exporting to svg, Illustrator converts object styles to css classes. It works fine when object style has both fill and stroke, but when it's only stroke, Illustrator adds it's own generated classes (.cls-1) like if the object style didn't exist.

    Please see output examples:
    - both stroke and fill
    - just stroke

  12. Global Color swatch copied into new document even if not used on element being copy/pasted.

    Problem: create a square with stroke=0 and fill=100% black. Copy and paste into new document and color swatches are okay. Now go to first document and add a Global Color swatch (i.e. Pantone Green) but don't add it to the square (so it's still stroke=0 / fill=100% black). Copy the square and paste it into a new document. For some reason, that Global Color (Pantone Green) swatch is added to the swatch palette of the new document. Now choose 'Select All Unused', the Pantone Green is selected to prove it's not being used in the element (square) you copy/pasted from…

  14. placing (linking) JPGs in illustrator makes files incredibly slow to work with

    Often I create layouts that require linking JPG in my doc. Whenever there are multiple JPGs in my doc, the doc becomes very slow. I do not notice the same performance issue if the linked files are TIFs. This has been an issue for multiple versions of Illustrator.

    Illustrator 製品版フィードバックへのご協力ありがとうございます。

    ご報告いただいた内容を検証した結果、以下の現象を確認いたしました。

    • 環境設定の「プレビュー境界を使用」が有効の場合、特定の効果が適用されているポイントテキストオブジェクトを変形パネルの幅(高さ)サイズフィールドで縦横比固定でリサイズすると、文字が正しくリサイズされない。
    • 文字パネルのフォントサイズでリサイズする場合は、正しく演算される。
    • 環境設定の「プレビュー境界を使用」が無効の場合は、特に問題は発生しない。

    これは、以前のバージョンでも同じ現象が確認できました。

    修正などの開発の進捗がありましたら、こちらで報告いたします。

    よろしくお願いいたします。

  17. Illustrator 2022 GPU Preview freezes on file load/zoom/switch with RTX 2060 and RTX 3060

    Illustrator 2022 (26.2.1) freezes for up to 5 minutes when GPU Preview is enabled on file load, zoom, switch. The CPU usage rises to 99% during the freeze and a system level interruption is observed at the end of the freeze that lasts up to 10 seconds. A memory leak takes place after every freeze even after all files are closed. Only closing Illustrator entirely releases de the abnormally allocated memory. CPU Preview is not affected by this.

    The tested systems are:

    Setup 1:

    Windows 11 64-bit, 21H2, 22000.652
    Intel Core i7-9700F
    32 GB RAM - DDR4-2666 - Dual Channel…

  18. save for web (legacy) ui zoomed in

    Windows 10
    Illustrator CC 26.3.1 (but has been happening for the last couple of updates)

    Under Export> Save for web(legacy) the UI that I see is very zoomed in with no scroll bars to move around the window. I'm unable to get to anything past the line in the screenshot. I can hit Enter to save it and can hit Esc to cancel, but can't really do anything else with it.

    I have completely reset the preferences and tried checking UI scaling, neither helped.

    The first 2 screenshots are from illustrator, the first one is what the UI looks like…
