Artboards with the same number / missing number
In the artboards menu, two have the same number, and so one cannot access or export one of those two artboards (see the attached photo, with two artboards labeled "9")

The team again asks for help with this issue, since there are not specific steps they can try to reproduce it — the nature of the bug is random.
If you are a Windows user, the next time you spot a missing or a duplicated number in Artboards panel, please follow these instructions below.
1. Open Task Manager
2. In Details tab, locate 'Illustrator.exe'
3. Right click it and choose 'Create dump file'
4. Wait until the dumping process is complete and click 'Open file location' button
5. Find 'Illustrator.dmp' (sorting files by date helps) and compress it with any archiving utility
6. Upload the archive to a file hosting service of your choice and sent the link for download to sharewithai@adobe.com. Please use the subject 'Artboards numbering bug dump'
This will help provide necessary clues to locate the source of the problem. If you are a Mac user — please ignore this message.

when open more then 9 artboards, illustrator make the same page number for some of the artbords (look at the video attached).
it open 1-9 artboads normally the next artboard is no 10 but 11 and also the one after it also 11 then until 14 it's also OK but then no 15 artboard but 2 16!
it make very hard to export the artboard that have the same page number
and generally really confusing -
Stef Naskova commented
When I drag to copy an artboard it creates a new artboard. So when i try to export that new artboard it shows error and says it doesn't exist.
It also happens the new artboard to have number that already exists.

I am running into the same problem and I it doesn't work to export artboards that get stuck within the numbering glitch.

Geraldo P commented
Same Problem here.
It was caused specifically when duplicating having more than one artboards selected using alt+drag with the artboard tool. When tried to export, it just exported the first one, ignoring the second.
As well, restarting the Illustrator fixed it. -
Scott commented
Upon restarting Illustrator, file was fine.

I too am having this problem. But duplicating dartboards 15, 19, 28 and 32 out of 32 artboards. When exporting, only saves the second duplicate. Deleting duplicated artboards does not help.

Tom commented
I have this error too

I'm having a similar issue, I have two 15's and only one exports..

Myk commented
When I make extra artboards, sometimes the numbering doesn't work and it gives problems with exporting files.
See the file I included
1 Artboard 1
3 Artboard 3
3 Artboard 3
4 Artboard 4 -
Leo commented
Also there is no 18...18 is 19.....

Leo commented
Artboard 15 had been named 16 for quite sometime now, hadn't had a problem much except if you export 15 and 16 at the same time it would override "15" because it is 16

I created a new document and made up empty artboards and it still had the bug but restarting the application seemed to reset and it works now.

Justin Wallace commented
When creating multiple artboards the boards are given the same number i.e. two 15's or two 23's (see attached ) which means when you export to eps the artboards that have the same number are ignored.

I got the same bug today.
I have made two new artboards, one has got number 46 (OK) and next happen to be 48 (47 is missing). If I try export range 46-48, AICC2018 says it's invalid. 46-47 is OK.
Bug stays after reopening file.
Here's the link for downloading both screenshot and file (with art removed):

Link will stay valid for two weeks.
(Uservoice, why can't I attach files in comments?) -
Ruth Watson commented
Some Art boards are being missed out and re-numbered as a repeat of the previous number, see attached images

Hi Aidan,

Thanks & Regards

I also have this issue. My document has 67 artboards, and number 27 is repeated (26 is omitted).
