  1. Second line of type (point and area) is picking up the style of the first line when pasting plain text

    New to 25.3.1 update, MacOS 11.4. When there are two lines in a point or area type object separated by a return, selecting the entire second line (formatted differently from the first line) and pasting in plain text (copied from a Finder filename) is now picking up the formatting from the first line instead of retaining the formatting from the existing line, as if there were an invisible return character from the first line, or as if it were a continuation of the first line. This is contrary to AI behavior since forever.

  3. Doesn't open cloud files

    Illustrator just couldn't open a file saved in the cloud.
    This issue only occurring when a file was double-clicked. When I single click on the file, it opens normally after installation.
    This problem has occurred after the update.

  4. テキストの半角スペースに点が現れる

    Ver 25.3.1 windows

    25.3.1にバージョンアップすると突然テキストの半角スペースにピリオドが現れました。

    1. テキストに半角スペースを打つ
    2. テキストに線幅を入れて縁取りにする
    3. その線の線端を丸型線端にする

    するとスペース部分に点が現れます。テキストをアウトライン化すると消えますが、そのままPDF書き出しすると残ります。

  5. Color changes when saving as .eps

    Saving out a pattern with a purple background as .eps turns out as black when previewing the file on the computer or in pdf-reader and when opened on other computers. Opening the file back into illustrator still shows everything as purple.

    MacOS BigSur 11.4
    illustrator 25.2.3

    Right side show as the colors are perceived in illustrator, left side is what other software see when opening the file.

  7. Selected UI field not readable

    The existing contents of all UI fields go blank/white when they are double/triple clicked to manually enter a value.

    I would expect the existing value to be highlighted/selected in grey so that they're legible.

    Examples attached:
    1. Before
    2. After double-clicking the "12 pt" value

  8. Illustrator running really slow, no GPU preview

    Hi Illustrator 25.3.1 is running horribly slow on my MacBook Pro (15-inch, 2018) / 2.2 GHz 6-Core Intel Core i7 / 32 GB 2400 MHz DDR4 / Radeon Pro 555X 4 GB - it is constantly running CPU Preview, I cannot get it to use GPU. Zoom in and out is awful to use. Illustrator is impeding my productivity. Please help.

  9. Save document popup does not correspond to the current document

    When closing a document that is not the current working document, the save dialog pops up but the only the currently active document is shown making it difficult to see which document the save dialog refers to. This is handled correctly in Photoshop but not Illustrator

    Repro:

    1. Open Illustrator

    2. Create two new documents

    3. With the type tool write on the empty artboard of the first untitled doc "Important work"

    4. Click on the document tab for the second untitled document and with the type tool write on the empty artboard "Useless garbage"

    5. While viewing the 'Useless garbage' doc, click on the…

  10. Fill appeared outside of outline on single copied object once when duplicating all objects multiple times

    Work was done in Illustrator 25.2.3 under Mojave 10.14.6. A screenshot showing the fill separated from the outline as well as a simplified/de-branded version of the 5-up document with only the problem art and a section of non-problem art (for relative position reference) left in place are attached.

    In Illustrator, the customer's AI file was opened and stepped 4 times to produce a 5-up document (as has been done countless times before on similar files). The resulting 5-up file was saved to subsequently be imposed in Prinergy. All artwork was duplicated perfectly in the first 3 copies but in the…

    This issue is happening due to a security feature added in Illustrator to inform the user if any external application tries to execute a script in Illustrator.

    Solution: Update your Logitech options app to the latest version – https://www.logitech.com/en-in/product/options

    https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/kb/fix-scripting-error.html

    We heard from some users that above solution is not working for them, we are investigating this issue. Meanwhile users can try the below workaround

    Create a JSX file with the following content:
    app.preferences.setBooleanPreference(“ShowExternalJSXWarning”, false);
    Save the above JSX file. Now, go to File > Scripts > Other Script, and choose the newly saved jsx file.

    This will suppress the warning dialog and run the script.

  15. 日本語入力時に英数キーで確定されます

    macOS Hi Sierra/Catalina/Big Sur
    Adobe Illustrator CC2017〜2021(それ以前の可能性も有)

    Macには独自の日本語テキスト入力のシステムがあります。
    入力した文字を確定する前に「英数キー」を2度連打すると
    半角アルファベットに変換されます。
    「かなキー」を2度連打すると再変換することができます。

    CS5までのIllustratorとすべてのPhotoshopではこのシステムが有効です。
    しかし、IllustratorCCでは「英数キー」「かなキー」での
    変換ができません。
    日本語を入力中に「英数キー」を押すと変換されず確定されます。

    私はMacOS X10.3から長くこのシステムに慣れているので
    現在のIllustratorの仕様は誤入力につながり不便です。

  17. Black Boxes appear and Unable to zoom past 1600% when GPU performance is turned off in Illustrator 25.3.1

    Well, I updated illustrator today and have major viewing issues.

    Black Boxes appear when selecting outlined text with the direct selection tool, when moving a shape, and in the upper left corner when viewing artboard. Everything disappears when zooming in more than 2400% in Preview mode and has a pixelated outline.

    I am happy to share that we have fixed this bug in our latest release – 26.2.1 which is available worldwide now.

    Going forward, our goal is to fix as many top User-Voice bugs as possible and as frequently as possible. Given the nature of the fixes, some of the bugs will take a longer time to fix, but we are on it.

    You can update to the latest release using Creative Cloud desktop App: https://helpx.adobe.com/in/creative-cloud/help/creative-cloud-updates.html

    Thank you for all the feedback. Keep it coming!

  18. Custom Brushes no longer working in newset update 25.3.1

    My custom brushes stopped working with the new update. When I switch between custom brushes it either does not change or changes to the incorrect brush.
    I have several custom brush files that I use for my job and this is happening with all of them.
    I switched Ilustrator back to the previous version, 25.2.3, and the brushes are working fine, however I would prefer to be using the most up to date version of illustrator and to not have to rebuild 5 custom brush files that each contain around 7-20 brush variations.
    I am on Windows 10.
    Thanks for…

  20. Saved swatches from previous version doesn't look the same

    I've made a custom palette in an earlier version of Illustrator. Now importing these swatches into new documents the swatches and codes are vastly different - both cmyk and rgb swatches has been altered.

    On reference picture - left side colors are original swatch colors, right side is the imported swatches. Also attaching the correct color codes.

    What happened? How do I fix this?
