Unknown error during file import
Illustrator 2025 (29.1)
MacBook Pro M3 16"
MacOS Sonoma 14.7.1When importing I'm getting a random "Unknown error" message. Afterwich the import failes.
This seems chipset related. When I boot Illustrator 2024 (28.7.3) in Rosetta mode, the error is gone.

Does anybody know what could be the issue?
Thanks in advance.

Paragraph style with bulletpoints doesn't apply bullets when coming from CC library
When I make a new paragraph style with bullets or numbering in an Illustrator document, I would like to reuse that. When I copy the style to the CC library, and apply that in a new document: the bulletstyle or numbering is lost.
Instead when I copy the textbox to the library, and place that in a new document, the paragraph styles behave identical to how they did in the original document.
I would suggest to make an improvement there, and not break the functionality of the paragraphstyles when used in a proper way through the library.. For me this…2 votes -

Gaussian Blur Effect Changed in 29.1 from 29.0.1
As previously reported in July 2020 when this happened with 24.2: https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447-illustrator-desktop-bugs/suggestions/40865740-gaussian-blur-effect-producing-different-results-f
This was last an issue with 24.2.3, and since 24.3 it had been successfully fixed with consistent results in 29.0.1.
December 2nd, 2024: We have discovered that the issue is how the Gaussian Blur effect performs on Process vs Spot colours.
In 29.1, Gaussian blur now produces an identical effect on both process & spot colours. We'd consider that a fix, as a designer should expect the same result no matter the colour used.
The challenge here for Adobe is weighing "fixing the blur" vs customer legacy files.…

Pantone or other book colors in a CMYK document look fine in Overprint preview mode but get exported to an RGB images as dull
When we add a Pantone or a different book color into a CMYK document, we can see how it looks 'for real' when we enable Overprint mode — all fair.
Then we would need to share this image with a client, so we export an RGB image... and this image shows out vivid book color as a dull-and converted-to-CMYK-and-then-to-RGB color — which is not what we have in mind.
This is a bug, honestly, I think, but also a request — we need to be able to export images as we see them in Overprint Preview mode... Ai respect overprints…

Subject: Issue with Type Tool - Font Changes Automatically After Pressing Spacebar
Dear Adobe Team,
I hope this message finds you well. I am reaching out to report an issue I am encountering with the Type Tool in Adobe Illustrator.
When I select any font and start typing, the font automatically changes after I press the spacebar. This issue occurs regardless of the font selected, and I am unsure why this is happening.
Could you please assist me in resolving this problem? I would appreciate your guidance on how to fix this issue or if there is a setting I need to adjust.
Thank you for your help. I look forward to…

Constant crashing - can't even move an object
Have updated my illustrator to the most recent version 29.1.
Using Mac OS Sequoa 15.1.1 - M1.
I would make changes, scroll to another section of my frame. Return back and my changes were then 'reverted'.
Every time I open the app it lags, spinning wheel of death, and all i'm doing is trying to maybe zoom in or out, copy or move an object.
I have reverted to old versions, reinstalled etc
It's a small file, good computer with heaps of memory.
Illustrator is basically unusable at this point and can't do my work. .

Printed image dimensions .5" larger than dimensions in Illustrator
Mac Sonoma
Illustrator 29.1I am printing a mechanical drawing. I have added multiple dimensions. My image is 20/25" x 45 " so I am tiling my printout. No matter which printer I use and which print settings, my printouts are always .5" larger than the dimensions in illustrator. I have tried adding overlaps, printing on borderless paper, removing overlaps, etc. Nothing fixes this problem
