Doing undo (Cmd + Z) Illustrator often deletes more than one step and resets the document close to its original/previously saved version.
Illustrator version: 23.0.3

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

Latest version of illustrator (v29.1) does not export pngs with the same pixel placements as the one before.
Export from the new version of illustrator places artwork off center: Up and to the left slightly. This causes SO much work in our pipeline, please fix this urgently.
1 voteAnders, please share a test file and the exact setting and the method you use to export an image.

Struggling with Invisible Geometry when mapping a 3D object
I’m having a trouble with this invisible geometry. It just doesn’t work for a cross object. Either I’m doing something wrong or I don’t know.

Please share it in comments if you are OK with it, or send it to sharewithai@adobe.com (in this case please put the link to this report in the body of the email for tracking purposes:

Version 2025 crashes more than usual and freezes when a pen used with tablet
With the last update 2025 there have been crashes, more than usual, and when I use the pen and the graphic tablet, Illustrator freeze.
4 votesHi ,
Thank you for reaching out to us regarding the issue you're facing. Unfortunately, we are unable to reproduce it on our end. To help us investigate further, could you please provide the following details:
- Wacom tablet configuration (model and driver version)
- When you first noticed the issue
- Is the issue consistently reproducible? (i.e., does it happen every time?)
- Machine's OS and GPU specifications
If possible, it would also be helpful if you could share a short recording of the issue, or let us know if you're available for a debug session. This will enable us to resolve the problem more promptly.
We appreciate your cooperation and look forward to assisting you.

Recovery opens Print.ai document profile instead of restoring a document after crash
This has happened twice in the past few days, the first time Illustrator unexpectedly crashed and just now it froze and I had to force quit the program. Both times, when I reopen Illustrator it tells me it's recovered my file(s), shows the correct document name (like Untitled-3, etc) and I press OK. It then pulls up a document called Print.ai which is just a blank artboard, maybe something I made in the past and didn't use? I go to the folder on my computer where the recovered files are supposed to go, it will say the folder has been…
2 votesElizabeth, the team suspects that can be triggered by moving the original file to another folder while it’s still opened.
Then, if Ai crashes, if can’t properly locate it and it leads to this exact problem.
Does it sound like something that could have been the case?

Uneven stroke widths using width tool
Using width tool, stroke comes out uneven, even though system claims it is the same on both sides of the path. This only happens on one side of the stroke, not sure if it's at the beginning or end of the stroke. This only happens when width is adjusted at the very end of the stroke; adding a node just before the end of the stroke and adjusting that way functions properly.
0 votesPlease provide a test file with the path that gives these results along with full specs for OS and GPU.

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">

.cls-1 {…3 votesThis change is intentional. The team aims to improve the way SVG is generated (speed, size, redundancy, etc.) and merge current both code branches into one.
Since some workflows heavily rely on the way the code structure is organized, the team tries to gather feedback on it.
Please describe what engine changes affect you and why.

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。＜環境＞

Scrollbar breaks using stylus (windows/wacom)
While I'm using a stylus, if I use the scrollbar, illustrator acts as if I haven't released from the scroll bar and continues to wildly scroll, and all other features including closing the program are inaccessible. This continues even if I tab out of the program and doesn't stop until I force quit illustrator.
1 voteHi ,
Thanks for reporting the issue, but we are unable to reproduce the issue at our end and would need more information such as the AI build with which the issue started, Wacom device configuration, and OS details of the machine where the issue is observed.

PDF export misses
After performing "Save a copy" and choosing the PDF, the PDF created does not contain all the art of the artboard. It seems random with no consistency as to what is affected.
- Sometimes ungrouping helps, 50%. Most often I have to delete the art and replace it.
- Could even be the same art that appears on another page, so its not errors in the art.
- Could be copy or vector work.
- Does not matter if its save as smallest size or other size1 voteThe team would need the test file you can reliably reproduce the problem, the steps to reproduce it, the exact OS specs and the version of Illustrator used. A video can also help to study the issue.
If you can share the file publicly — please attach it in the comments. If if you are not allowed to do so or you do not want to make it public — you can send it over to sharewithai@adobe.com

Stroke width is scaled along with the element it is applied to
The stroke width is scaled along with the element it is applied to (transform="scale(sx sy)") if the scale values (sx, sy) are different. Stroke width is not scaled if the scale values are the same. Ideally stroke should not be scaled.
Workaround for the browser is to use vector-effect='non-scaling-stroke' attr, but it is still not being supported by AI.1 voteThis need some clarification.
I don’t think I can understand the problem.
Illustrator is capable of scaling strokes with object, it the corresponding option is checked. When it’s enabled, it does not differ between uniform and non-uniform transformations. So, is it a feature request and not a bug report, or am I missing the point of it?

Cut/Copy/Paste not working
Cut/Copy/Paste are not working properly in the most recent version of Illustrator (Windows version). I'll cut/copy something, and then it'll refuse to paste. This is not an error with my hardware, the clipboard works fine on every other program.
27 votesIf you have this problem, please try to answer these:
1. Do you have an external clipboard managing app installed?
2. Does this get better if you disable 'Include SVG Code' in Preferences > Clipboard Handling?
3. Do Edit > Paste menu commands get disabled when you try to paste and fail?
4. Does it happen only when you try to paste text, or does it fail for non-text artwork as well?
