  1. SVG Save As 'SVG Code...' not same as marked up saved SVG. This now matches Export As SVG

    The content saved when you Save As... SVG is different in 28.5 to 28.3. When you click SVG Code... the text file preview matches that of the old version. Example file header:

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    <!-- Generator: Adobe Illustrator 28.5.0, SVG Export Plug-In . SVG Version: 9.03 Build 54727) -->
    <svg version="1.1" id="Layer_1" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" x="0px" y="0px"
    viewBox="0 0 2255 692" style="enable-background:new 0 0 2255 692;" xml:space="preserve">
    <style type="text/css">
    .st0{fill:none;stroke:#000000;stroke-miterlimit:10;}
    .st1{fill:#FFFFFF;stroke:#000000;stroke-miterlimit:10;}
    </style>

    When you actually save this with OK it changes to :

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
    <svg id="Layer_1" data-name="Layer 1" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" version="1.1" viewBox="0 0 2255 692">

  2. Partage d'écran: «conversion des éléments déplacés au format EPS»

    Lorsque j'utilise Illustrator avec le partage d'écran, déplacer une image et très compliqué.
    Lors du déplacement d'une image, le pop-up « conversion des éléments déplacés au format EPS » apparaît plusieurs fois. Très souvent lors du déplacement d'une image, la connexion au Partage d’écran se coupe et il faut attendre un certain temps avant que la connexion ou Partage d’écran se fasse de nouveau.
    Tous les autres logiciels de la suite, Adobe Creative Cloud fonctionne parfaitement. Je ne rencontre ce problème qu'avec Illustrator.
    Illustrator est installé sur un Mac studio, 2023, avec une puce Apple, M2 Max et Sonoma 14.5
    L'ordinateur utilisé…

  4. Very wired and bad line jitters in "Accurate" Fidelity mode in Pencil tool

    I'm using the Pencil tool quite a lot in "Accurate" Fidelity mode, but it seems like this mode somehow got worse with the last updates? Did they change anything with the Pencil tool?

    Does anyone suffer the same results while drawing with some speed?

    There are these wired bumps in a lot of sections, which are absolutely NOT accurate.

    I know I can smooth the lines, but that smoothes everything. For some drawings I really like the accurate mode — but not this way...

  5. Hilfe reagiert nicht, sowohl Lupe als auch Hilfe unter "Fenster" Mac OS Ventura 13.6.7., AI 28.5

    Die HilfeFunktion ist unzuverlässig.
    Manchmal reagiert sie, manchmal erst in einer zusätzlich neu erstellten Datei, manchmal nach dem Neustart von Illustrator und manchmal gar nicht.
    Das Entdecken-Fenster ist also nicht zugänglich.

  6. Exported SVG's containing a soft carriage return convert text to outlines

    Until AI 28, when exporting an SVG with soft carriage returns (shift-return in Illustrator), text was not converted to outlines.

    With Illustrator 28, Adobe significantly changed the format of exported SVGs.

    Now, when exporting an SVG with Font Type: SVG, using a soft carriage return (shift return) in Illustrator causes the text to be converted to outlines.

    If I create a simple AI file containing only the text "test file", here is the resulting SVG code:

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
    <svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" version="1.1" viewBox="0 0 500 500">
    <defs>
    <style>
    .cls-1 {
    fill: #3e3e3e;
    font-family: ArialMT, Arial;
    font-size: 19px;
    }
    </style>…

  7. テキストバグ

    v28.5
    英数で 「1(いち」「.(ドット」「 (半角スペース)」と入力するとスペースは全角で入力され、バックで削除できなくなる。選択もできなくなる。これをアウトラインをとった時、消えてしまう場合とそうでない場合がある。

    「1(いち」「.(ドット」「 (半角スペース)」と入力したい場合は「1(いち」を入力する前に何か任意の数字(文字)を入力してから「1(いち」「.(ドット」「 (半角スペース)」を入力した後、任意の数字(文字)を削除すれば通常通りに入力、アウトライン等可能

  8. Clipping Path Dimensions disregarded when exporting JPG in version 28.5

    When using "File -> Export As" to create a JPG of your illustrator document, the size of the JPG includes artwork hidden by a clipping path and adds white space. Attached is an example where I've exported a JPG from versions 28.4.1 and 28.5. The JPG from version 28.5 added additional white space to the left, right, and top edges where artwork was hidden by a clipping path. This is not how Illustrator behaved previously. Is there a workaround?

  9. Width tool not working right: can’t adjust widths at the first point of the path

    Have a fairly simple shape inside a radial repeat x 12. That shape has about 4 width adjustments. And one of them has a hard adjustment, from wider to smaller, but it acts really weird and can't make it a smooth width. It doesn't have two width adjustments on top of each other, and I can't delete the width adjustment. This has happened twice in different files, made separately but with similar processes. Can't seem to find a way to fix this besides deleting and starting over.

  10. Custom/saved workspace doesn't update toolbars the first time

    After I choose a saved workspace, the toolbars don't get updated/repositioned until I choose the saved workspace the second time from the window>workplace menu. In the first attempt, it positions the toolbars somewhat but not properly/fully. Therefore each time I have to go back and choose the saved workspace once more to get everything positioned how it is set.

  11. Can't copy, paste or delete data on graph tool

    Illustrator has a very old and annoying bug when using the graph tool: from times to times you can't copy, paste or delete data. Sometimes the keyboard shortcuts stops working and you need to use the menu (slower workflow). But sometimes even the menu doesn't work. Then you need to quit Illustrator and even restart the Mac.

    It doesn't matter which OS ou Ai version you have installed. As I said, it has been behaving like that for years.

    Please fix it.

  12. Copy paste breaks up text frames

    When I copy paste text frames in Illustrator 28.5 they end up broken up in individual letters. This is due to interference with the clipboard manager of LaunchBar and is a regression — the previous version of Illustrator did not have this issue but I've experienced problems with LaunchBar and Adobe applications in the past.

  16. 特定のデータで印刷ができない

    あるデータで印刷をするとメーターが100%で止まってしまい、印刷ができません。
    しばらく待ってもプリンターが反応せず困っております。(プリンターダイヤログにも表示されません。)

    これ以外のデータは正常に印刷可能です。

    キャンセルを押すとフリーズしている様子もなく、普通に印刷キャンセルされます。
    新規ドキュメントを作成し、コピー貼り付けしてみましたが、それも同じ症状です。

    データ自体は他に比べ極端に重いデータでもなさそうです。(41956KB)

    また、他のPC環境でも試しましたがどのPCを使っても同じ症状で、
    そのデータの中の一部パスデータをラスタライズしたり、データ自体をPDF化すると印刷が可能でした。
    出来ればPDF化などせずに印刷をしたいです。
    何か解決方法がございましたらご教示をお願いいたします。

  17. Center points vanish at a certain level of magnification

    Above a certain level of magnification, the object's center point vanishes, which is an issue if that's what you are trying to zoom-in on.

    This seems mostly to happen in artwork mode.

  19. 新規ファイルを保存しようとするとクラッシュする

    新規ファイルを立ち上げて、保存しようとするとクラッシュする
    イラストレータが固まり、強制終了することになる。

    1.メニューのファイルから保存できない
    ・保存
    ・別名で保存
    2.ショートカットキーでも保存できない
    ・保存(⌘ S)
    ・別名で保存(shift ⌘ S)
    全て同様。
    新規ファイルを作成できないので、既存の作業済みのファイルを活用することでなんとか新しいファイルに作り替えている。
    ※既存のファイル(すでに名前があるファイル)は保存(⌘ S)できるが、別名保存(shift ⌘ S)にするとクラッシュする

    イラストレータを立ち上げる前に以前作業したファイルをコピーして、リネームしてから、ファイルを開いて、レイヤーや画像、テキストなど、全て削除してから、作業しています。
    もう何ヶ月もこのような状態で、とても使いにくいです。
    バージョンアップも、creative cloudからアンインストールも試したが、状況は変わりませんでした。
    解決策があれば教えていただきたいです。

  20. Action with Image Trace does not record preset selection

    When creating an action with the Image Trace function, I am only able to utilize the default image trace settings when batching.

    While creating the action, loading custom parameters for the image trace function does not appear to be recorded in the action. When attempting to batch multiple files, the image trace uses the default black and white setting.

    My work around is the edit the trace parameters found in /collection7 in the vector_parameters.json found in the user folder. This is hardly an ideal workflow.

    Please have the action of loading the preset recorded in the action, so this workflow…
