  1. Curvature tool does some funkiness when clicking on a point of a different object

    Curvature behaves weird when you click on another object (related to https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447-illustrator-desktop-bugs/suggestions/44830828--corner-anchor-points-become-smooth-when-joining).
    But I'm not trying to join the objects, just click on it. It works fine if you click on the path of the second object, but if you click where an anchor point is it joins the two objects together at the point you click and the first anchor point of what you clicked off of. It also deletes all corner points of the object you clicked on.

  2. In "recolor artwork" when I select a "user defined" color palette, it lets me chose it, but will not use those colors.

    In "recolor artwork", when I select a "user defined" color palette, it lets me chose that palette, but will not use those colors in the recoloring options. For instance, I can select the color palette, but when I go to randomly change the color order, it does not use those colors, it only uses the colors that are already in the artwork.

    In previous versions, once I selected the "user defined" colors, that selection of swatch colors would appear in the "Swatch group" side panel. That no longer happens. And as stated before, just doesn't work in general.

  3. Fonts changing in files when opened in Illustrator 29.5.1

    Existing files created in illustrator (on a different desktop) when opened in v29.5 & v29.5.1 display incorrect fonts - the font is changed to a completely different font (e.g. Myriad Pro will be changed to Times New Roman) throughout the document. All the text in that font family is changed, but other fonts used in the document will display correctly. The font is installed correctly on the system and the changed font can be changed to the correct font by selecting the font from the illustrator font list. The thumbnails display correctly in Bridge before opening in illustrator. Reverting illustrator…

  4. Variações de fonte desaparecem do acervo

    Eu baixei uma família de fonte, e aos poucos as variações da fonte vão sumindo do meu acervo, começa sumindo a light, depois some a bold, e assim vai. Já é a terceira vez que tenho que baixar novamente.

  5. Preview Only Text rendered as moved compared to the original

    The new Preview Only Text feature is bugged. Attached is a screen shot of a comparison of the original document and Illustrators Preview Only text. The copy actually moves quite a bit from it's original position. The text is area type and within a box if that is a clue. This should be a huge concern for anyone trusting the preview only text.

  6. Vector issue / problem (29.5)

    Hi everyone,

    I updated Illustrator to version 29.5 yesterday, and since then, I’ve been having issues with image tracing.
    I can no longer get a clean black and white vector trace like I used to.

    As you can see in the example above, my image outlines used to be very sharp and well-defined.
    Unfortunately, since the update, the results have become irregular, with blurry and uneven lines.

    I’ve tried several methods to fix the issue, but nothing seems to work.
    As a clothing designer, this is really preventing me from working properly, and I’m feeling quite stuck.

    If anyone has…

  7. Fonts used previously won’t load and miss in the document

    Many of the fonts aren't opening properly on the working files from the previous version of IIllustrator. It appears as I have no these fonts, but I sure had yesterday in 2024 version, so it's there :d

  8. Artboard Tool doesn’t create artboards based on a clicked object with an expected precision

    When using the Artboard Tool to click on an object, an artboard should be created accordingly. However, this feature rarely works as expected, and the success rate is unacceptably low. We kindly request improvements to ensure more consistent and reliable performance.

  9. Cursed Path includes non deletable artifacts — part of shape when outlined.

    I have drawn custom shapes using the pen tool. Visible artifacts are growing out of anchors. When I switch to outline mode, these artifacts are not visible, yet when I expand the strokes, the artifacts become part of the resulting shape. I cannot resolve this by deleting the anchors that cause the issue, if I do that and then reconnect the remaining points, the artifact simply reappears. I'm attaching an Illustrator file with the cursed paths so that others can see if they experience the same issue or if they can resolve it.

    I am running Illustrator cc 29.4 on…

    Hi All,


    Thanks for reporting the issue!

    We’ve reviewed the issue, but unfortunately, we're unable to reproduce the issue on our end.

    To help us investigate further, could you please share:

    • The .ai file where you’re seeing the issue
    • Or a short screen recording capturing the issue from the start

    Also, let us know:

    • Is the issue 100% reproducible on your side, or does it happen intermittently?

    Your input will help us get to the root of the problem faster.


    Looking forward to your response!

  10. Objects vanish when a PDF is exported

    The PDF document is not being saved correctly. I have tried saving it in different ways, changing the elements and it still isn't working. I believe it is a problem in Acrobat itself perhaps?

  11. プリントに選択したページは全て空白です

    Illustrator 2025（29.3）で、アートボードを印刷しようとすると「プリントに選択したページは全て空白です」 というエラーが出て印刷ができない。リンクオブジェクトにリンクを配置した際、リンク元となるデータが.aiのファイルで、かつそのリンク元のレイヤー内でリンクオブジェクト（確認したケースでは埋め込みリンク）のみが表示されており、その他のパスなどの要素が表示されていない場合にこの現象がおきた。

  12. スリープさせるとレインボーカーソル化

    MacBookPro OS 13.6.4
    Illustrator 29.3.1

    Illustratorを起動したまま、画面を（物理的に）閉じると、次画面を開いた時にIllustratorがレインボーカーソルのまま動かなくなります。毎回強制終了して再度起動しています。
    ブラウザなどの他のアプリケーションはレインボーカーソル化しません。

    Illustratorを28にしていた頃は起こらなかったです。

  16. 別の変数ライブラリを読み込むと「不明なエラー」がでる

    ・すでに変数ライブラリが読み込まれている
    ・１つの変数に複数のオブジェクトを割り当てている

    このようなとき、変数＞変数ライブラリの読み込み、から別の変数を読み込もうとすると、
    「不明なエラーのため、フィルター処理を完了できません。」
    と表示されるバグがありますので、報告します。

    なお、複数割り当てられているオブジェクトを「変数のバインディング解除」で１つしか割り当てられていない状態にすると、上記のエラーは起こりません。

  19. ファイルを開き直すとカーニングがリセットされる

    .aiファイルでデザインを作成し保存、ファイルを一度閉じてから再び開くと、特定のテキストのカーニング設定がリセットされます。
    発生条件は不明ですが、今のところファイル中に1つだけ現れています。
    ただし、いろいろ設定をいじって一つを解決すると、別の場所に新たに発生する可能性があります（これは作業前に全ての問題を把握してから取り掛からなかったのではじめから2箇所の問題があったのかもしれません）。

    現時点では対処法が見つかっていないので、目を皿にして入稿チェックデータを確認し、見つけ次第直し、の繰り返ししかありません。

    後から修正のできない印刷物にとっては重大な問題ですので、調査と修正をお願いしたいです。
    他に提供できる情報があれば提供いたします。
