  2. 色違いで作ったパターンがコピペされない

    MacOS Catalina 10.15.7　Illustrator 2021（25.3.1）

    同じ模様のパターンの色違い３つ作成（ABCとする）→
    ABCに塗ったオブジェクトをコピー→
    別ファイルにペースト→
    オブジェクトすべてがAの塗りになり、BCのパターンはペーストされない

    コピペされないBCを別のオブジェクトに塗り
    再度コピペしても、勝手にAの塗りに変換されます。
    同ファイル内でコピペしても同じ現象がおきます。

  3. Kerning Issues with latest update

    The last Illustrator update has caused havoc with all of my type placement for files saved under the previous version. I tried to change color modes for a project and all of my text shifted (different now between the digital and print versions). This would seem to be a bug; the kerning gets super tight and some of the empty spaces (just the space character) all but disappear, compacting words together. This is happening all files I've tested with and on a system running Windows 10 (not sure if the same issue exists on Mac environments). Is this something that's…

  4. Export for screens too slow when saving PDF multiple times

    I use export for screens to export many artboards in PDF for simple vector artwork like brand assets (brandwithtagline, horizontallogo, verticallogo, symbol, brandblue, brandyellow, etc.) everytime I need to export the same file multiple times for Pantone, CMYK and RGB versions of those same artboards, but every time I export, the time it takes increases. For example: one file with 80 artboards take 0:10s to save each artboard as a separte file in Ai format, but takes 2:00s to save in PDF for first batch, then 2:50s for second batch and gets slower and…

  7. The white-filled circle arrowhead has some very strange geometry.

    The white-filled circle arrowhead in Support Files/Resources/en_us/Arrowheads.ai has two doubled points in the black circle. This results in unexpected imagery when a path is given this arrowhead, expanded, and has further effects applied.

    Screenshots: outline view, and outline view with half of each point pair selected and moved down 1pt.

    This was discovered in 25.3.1 but I bet it's been lurking there long enough that it predates your current source control tree. :)

  8. 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.

  11. 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。

  12. 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.

  14. 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

  15. 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.

  16. 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…

  17. 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.
