    Ctrl + D in Illustrator does not duplicate. There is no such a command, unfortunately. Instead this hotkey does another useful operation by default, it repeats the last applied transformation again — like if you move something to the right, you can move it (or any other shape) again, with the same distance.


    However, I agree that Duplicate command is something Ai might benefit from. Hitting Ctrl+C, Ctrl+F is still twice longer than one hotkey, and is nowhere instant, So please vote here for having it:

    f) Using the Selection…

  4. english text converts to chinese after using space bar

    When I type english text in a text box, it gets converted to chinese characters whenever I use the space bar.

    Illustrator 21.0.0

    Steps:
    1. Draw a text box
    2. type a word and press space bar
    3. attached screenshot is what I get after step 2.
    4. I expect a space to be added instead of having my text converted to another language.
