File Bloat
I was tearing my hair out working with a file using multiple images containing patterns inside snowflakes. Every time I saved the file it got bigger and bigger even when nothing had changed except I was trying to rasterize images which was suggested to reduce file size. Finally after reading many other illustrator forum comments on this issue, someone suggested copying all the content and pasting it to a brand new file artboard. I did this and started an entirely new file with the same artwork, and when I saved this new file it it went from 240 MB to…

SVG Export Distortion
I am having 0 success with Adobe Illustrator exports that incorporate filters. Some are stock images from Adobe stock that have polygonal patters. Others are 3D text rendered objects. Others are layers built with a variety of transparency filters and opacity settings. The SVG exports are not usable and we are resorting to .png files until we solve this. I saw a similar post that was unresolved: https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447-illustrator-bugs/suggestions/33118615-sizes-and-coordinates-get-distorted-in-svg-export
I am using export settings with Styling: Presentation; Images: Preserve; Object ID: Minimal; 2 Decimals; Minify and Responsive checked. Other modifications to these settings has not worked.
Additionally, many of the Adobe…4 votesIncreasing the Decimals precision from 2 to higher value should fix this issue. Please try this and update the results.

New Project Screen Overflows Window
When I create a new document in Illustrator (either by clicking "Create New" or by using Ctrl-N), the New Project screen overflows the window so that the document setup bar is cut off. When the window is smaller, the leftmost edge of the bar is visible; when the window is fullscreen, none of the bar is visible. (See attached screenshots.)
This has been going on for several weeks. I have tried restarting Illustrator and restarting my whole computer, but neither helps.
I am running Illustrator 22.6 on a Windows 10 laptop.

Opacity Mask is acting funky. I paste in place an object. Exit Opacity Mask, and it's gone when I go back.
Having a bug where I paste in a graphic and neither clipping, nor invert work with my vector object. I then exit the mask to go back to the artboard, and when I go back my art is gone. I've updated all the apps for CC. Thanks.

Mad Color (Colour)
Colours are altered opening older files. The colour (color) settings are completely wrong—the idropper doesn't select properly. I tried to do a screen grab to get a sample from it but all the colours fade. The screen grab brought into illustrator then screen grabbed again fades all the colours again!!!! This doesn't happen if I screen grab anywhere else.

Saving an EPS file hangs Illustrator
When I save a file to EPS, Illustrator either takes forever to save it or hangs and I have to kill it and restart. Saving to an AI file isn't a problem.

Wrong font preview for RTL languages
There are a few problems with the new fonts preview in the last version of Illustrator.
1. Even though 'Selected Text' preview option is selected the preview shows first five Hebrew alphabet letters instead.
2. This happens weather the text box is selected or the text itself.
3. Sometimes the 'Selected Text' preview is shown. In those cases it's shown backwards (LTR instead of RTL).This happens in spite of the fact that the text box is marked as a 'Hebrew' one and 'RTL Arabic' digits is selected.
I'm using a Mac running OS X 10.13.6 High Sierra.1 voteHi Eli,
Not all the fonts have all the glyphs available with them to show the preview. For the fonts where glyphs are not available, we show the default sample preview (that’s why you get first five glyphs for those fonts)
Hope This helps.
Thanks

V23.0.1 Unable to drag artwork from Illustrator to PowerPoint and be able to ungroup the artwork.
Yesterday I was able to drag and drop my artwork from Illustrator to PowerPoint and ungroup the artwork. Today after I updated my Illustrator software I can't do this. The drag and drop places an uneditable image.

Art work not consolidating to the center window
Since updating my illustrator for a week or so ago... when I open art work the arrt work does not open and I am unable to consolidate art windows into the main window. Seems like some sort of bug. The only way I can bring open files is by navigating to window > arrange > float all windows. When I drag the window back into the main panel it disapears. The open screen will not go away

Illustrator CC constantly crashes in Touch Workspace
I switched to a Surface Pro 2017 (i5, 8GB RAM) a few days ago and Adobe Creative cloud is driving me crazy.
The issue I'm having is that Illustrator CC 2018 (V23.0) keeps crashing every few minutes when I'm working in the Touch Workspace - which badly needs a layers panel by the way. To use CC like this is the sole reason I got this Surface Pro!
Things that didn't work:
- Restarting
- Updating all my drivers
- Downgrading to Illustrator CC V22.0
- Re-installing Adobe CC completely
- Re-installing Windows completely from a Microsoft Surface Recovery USB…

Activate text field for numeric Rotation
When the numeric rotation dialog is opened - it would be convenient when the text field is active for direct input of the Angle (I think this was the case in earlier versions).
In Ai19, the dialog is 'dead' - nothing happens when we start typing - whe have to type 5x Tab to get in the field.
1 voteWe have the fix available in the latest release. Please update Illustrator using Adobe Creative Cloud application to the latest build for version Illustrator CC 23.0.2
Please refer to our knowledge base FAQ – https://illustrator.uservoice.com/knowledgebase/articles/1844590 if you face difficulty in update.

Text missing in SVG files
This is the first time trying to use Illustrator since it updated to the newest version (23.0.1) and updating my Mac to High Sierra (10.14). I have previously used Illustrator to edit SVG files, specifically the text in those files. When I open similar SVG files in the new Illustrator, all of my text is missing. My computer is due for a small update which will go through later tonight but this seems like a bug within Illustrator. When I open the SVG in Photoshop 2019 and re-export it as a SVG, I am able to see the text in…
