Save error with embedded PDF (Unknown error occurred)
Just updated CC to latest version on my MacBookPro 2017, and now I am unable to save a ill document which contains an embedded PDF inside. PDF was created from a scan on a Xerox WorkCentre 7855.
PS: Why can't I copy content from file info in file Properties? That is just dumb!

.ai Files Auto-opening in After Effects
Ran an update yesterday and, since then, all native < .ai > files are auto-opening in After Effects. This occurs whether I launch from Bridge or Finder; double-clicking to open a native Illustrator file is now launching directly in to AE. I have checked each file to make sure that Illustrator is the default --- it is.

Illustrator problem
This is not ethical. I know that. But I want to publish this video. Just explain to me why these problems are caused. I've never seen any logical explanations until this time. And that makes me sad.
Illustrator is very clumsy, slow, has bad performance, interface bad and exhausting.
Example, I can't easily apply effects on an object or text. Restricts me with everything. These are very simple and the features that should be. I'm sure a lot of people think that.Affinity is small size, more practical and user-friendly, faster and cheaper.

Variables panel not redrawing
The variables panel does not seem to get redrawn as often as it should.
I am using the latest (early 2019) version of AI.
Create a new document.
Go to/open Variables panel
Panel corner menu->Create Variable.
Dialog opens: Enter name and choose type.
Close dialog.
New variable does not appear in list. (Yet)
Close and reopen Variables panel (or switch panel tab away and back)
Variable previously created is now visible.
Similarly, binding variables to objects is not updated in the panel without the close/reopen or tab switch trick forcing the panel to redraw.

Millimeter setting for font size not correct! cost me $1000s in reprinting
I'm a freelance designer working for a top hair care brand which markets their products world wide. We had our entire front label product run rejected because it did not meet EU regulatory standards for ml and net weight type size. When creating the labels the first time I set my font size from points to mm to ensure I met the minimum size requirements of 3mm. Imagine my surprise when we heard from our EU distributor our product was rejected! This is where I made my mistake I trusted Adobe Illustrator program to ensure when I set a font…

pasted guides are checked against the drawing area
While pasting artwork (CMD-V) which is copied from another Illustrator document and includes guides, I often get the warning seen in the screenshot.
This happens only because of the guide.
After pasting in place (CMD-F) I can move the artwork around w/o the guides being checked against the drawing area.Imo the guides shouldn't be checked against the drawing area while pasting.

Illustrator 2019 taking too long to save in Windows 1809
Illustrator 2019 started taking at least 20x longer to save in Windows 1809.
This makes it effectively unusable as I can't suddenly up my hourly rate by 1000%
