1. Illustrator does not embed a color profile when exporting artwork to PNG format

   When exporting to JPG format there is option to select color profile and an option to embed the chosen color profile in file. There is no such support for PNG files and I find many times I am asked for a transparent PNG file for print work and am unable to embed color profile.

2. Unable to retain the last active artboard on switching from another file

   This is related to this issue here, though I'm unable to vote or comment on it. So I'm reposting this issue, because it's still annoying.

   https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447-illustrator-bugs/suggestions/32101687-zoom-to-arbitrary-artboard-when-switching-between

   When I https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447-illustrator-bugs/suggestions/32101687-zoom-to-arbitrary-artboard-when-switching-between

   When I ⌘+Tilde (~), on certain documents (the setting seems to be saved to a document), it automatically Fits Artboard to Screen on the last artboard of the document. It is confusing, and annoying, and interrupts workflows where I need to move quickly between artboards. Please fix this.

3. Freezing when working on files with lots of details

   I've noticed others are having this exact same problem:

   When working on files with a large number of items, the program will freeze up the whole computer -- necessitating a forced reboot. This happens constantly with the latest update.

4. Major Type issues

   Having major dramas with type. I cannot select any existing type in any file. I cannot add any type either. On the rare occasion that any cursor may appear, it is so tiny as to be impossible to see anything. On typing, no text appears at all.
   Extremely weird and extremely frustrating.

5. secondary view moves when editing text

   OSX 10.13.5, Illustrator 22.1.

   When I have two windows open on the same document and start editing text, the inactive window will recenter its view on wherever my text cursor is.

   Reproduction:

   1. Open a new document
   2. Draw something off on the side of it
   3. Zoom in on this thing
   4. view>new window
   5. arrange both windows so you can see them at once
   6. recenter the new window far away from the thing you drew in step 2
   7. in the window that's not showing the thing you drew in step 2 make a new text box, or create a new point type object
   8. start typing stuff
   9. observe that the inactive window has changed its view to center on the text

   This drives me crazy when I have pasted the script for a page of comics into the side of one document, and am trying to rework it into a series of word balloons scattered about the page.

6. Poor quality images from Export for Screens

   Mac OS 10.13.5, Illustrator 22.1

   Images from artboards containing embedded raster files output using Export for Screens are of decidedly lower quality than those output from Save for Web. Please see the attached image for a side-by-side comparison. Save for Web is on the left, Explort for Screens on the right. Top images are actual size, bottom enlarged for emphasis. Notice the jaggies in the raster images.

11. Dynamic Symbols don't move when direct selecting.

    If I drag a selection box around a static symbol and then move it - it moves as expected. If I do the same with a dynamic symbol - it's broken.

    Definitely need this to work for my workflow. Thanks!

12. Resizing Bug

    Been having a lot of issues with a bug in the last couple weeks. I frequently find that the bounding box disappears (even when I have on 'show bounding box') absolutely out of nowhere. The program then proceeds to get very glitchy when trying to move the selected text, then crashes and shuts down. Doesn't allow transformations. I find myself restarting the program multiple times a day and it is honestly unacceptable. This is the most up to date version of illustrator.

13. "Save for Web (Legacy)" defaults to some arbitrary folder (on Win10)

    Whenever I do a "Save for Web (Legacy)" the first time in an Illustrator session, it defaults to some arbitrary location that has nothing to do with... well, anything. I think it might have been the location I used the first time I issued the command under Illustrator 22.0, but that was months ago, so I can't say for sure.

    If I choose a different directory and save my images/slices there, that's becomes the new default directory for the remainder of that Illustrator session. But if I exit and restart Illustrator, it's back to defaulting to a location that makes no sense.

    IDEALLY: the directory that I wound up doing a Save for Web into should be recorded in the .AI file when I save it afterwards, such that the next time I edit that file and need to re-export my slices, it defaults to saving them where I put them last time.

    And if I've never done a Save for Web on this particular .AI file (and haven't done a Save for Web during this current session, either), defaulting to the same location as the .AI file would not be a bad guess. It would at least have the advantage of making some sense.

14. fix 'sticky' text boxes within sublayers

    Fire up Illustrator 22.0 or 22.1 and create a new document.

    Select the Text tool and draw a rectangular area. Fill it with placeholder text. Select the Rectangle tool and draw a filled rectangle (non-overlapping, though it doesn't matter).

    Double click some word in the text box and start typing. Then in the Layers panel, click the 'select art' square corresponding to the filled rectangle. The rectangle becomes selected and the text box is deselected and all is good and well.

    Deselect everything, hilight the rectangle and textbox objects in the Layers panel, and "Collect in New Layer". This puts the two objects into a new sublayer under the existing "Layer 1". Rotate the arrow-thing to uncollapse the new sublayer.

    Now, repeat the above procedure: select the text box, select the text tool, double click on some word in the text and start typing. Then select the rectangle via the 'Selected Art' marker in the Layers panel.

    The Layers panel shows the rectangle as selected and the text as deselected. The 'selection hilighting' (if 'Show Edges' is turned on) in the drawing area also shows the rectangle is selected and the text is deselected. Both of them are lying, however!

    BUG: The text box is still (incorrectly) secretly selected. There's still a flashing text cursor right where it was. Pressing 'a' on the keyboard (unsurprisingly) puts in 'a' in the text box where the cursor is, rather than switching to the Direct Selection Tool.

    Also, while in this confused state, click on the Selection Tool in the tools panel. The Layers panel updates to show that both the rectangle and the text box are selected, and both will have bounding boxes shown (assuming Show Edges is enabled) as well as a third bounding box that encompasses the two of them. All of that's fine and normal for both objects being selected, but the text box should have been deselected when the other object was selected via the Layers panel.

    This only seems to happen when the text box is in a sub-layer. If it's in a top-level layer it correctly deselects when you select something else.

    Needless to say, this is annoying as all get-out, and I routinely find myself inadvertently injecting arbitrary 'a' and 'v' characters into text that I've 'deselected'.

    WORKAROUND: Hitting ESC or ctrl-shift-A (Deselect All) does correctly deselect the text box (whether it's in a sublayer or not). But I count on the Layers panel to make my object selections, and so this bug keeps biting me.

    Fire up Illustrator 22.0 or 22.1 and create a new document.

    Select the Text tool and draw a rectangular area. Fill it with placeholder text. Select the Rectangle tool and draw a filled rectangle (non-overlapping, though it doesn't matter).

    Double click some word in the text box and start typing. Then in the Layers panel, click the 'select art' square corresponding to the filled rectangle. The rectangle becomes selected and the text box is deselected and all is good and well.

    Deselect everything, hilight the rectangle and textbox objects in the Layers panel, and "Collect in New Layer". This puts… more

16. Illustrator CC 2018 in macOS High Sierra Save 'Adobe PDF' presets/.joboptions scrambled, unsorted, mixed up

    Since the Illustrator CC got updated to 2018 in macOS High Sierra, whenever saving as Adobe PDF, the PDF print settings/job options got all scrambled/mixed up in the 'Save Adobe PDF' dialog.

    These should be sorted alphabetically, but as you can see they're all mixed up. A couple of colleagues are also experiencing this. Is there any way to workaround/fix this issue? See related thread from InDesign - could a startup JSX fix this issue?

    See my original post on the Illustrator users forum: https://forums.adobe.com/message/10419940#

19. SVG href property exports incorrectly

    When illustrator exports SVGs, it sometimes will use the href property to reference something like an embedded image or gradient from the <defs>, which is reasonable. Docs for the href property here:

    https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/SVG/Attribute/href

    However, safari does not support href yet, and will completely drop the reference, making SVGs widely render incorrectly in safari, up to the latest version. In order to make them work properly, the deprecated xlink:href property must also be used, docs below:

    https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/SVG/Attribute/xlink:href

    All bases can be covered by including both the href and xlink:href properties, until all modern browsers have fully adopted the SVG2 spec.
