Bug: Adobe Acrobat PDF fields are no longer retained in Illustrator file
Adobe Acrobat PDF fields in a Illustrator PDF file should be retained upon save. Up to version 27.5, Illustrator did respect and retain PDF text fields, I started noticing the issue in Illustrator 27.6.1 and 27.7
OS: macOS Ventura 13.4
Affected AI versions: 27.6.1 and 27.7
Steps to reproduce problem: Open an existing illustrator PDF file that has Acrobat PDF text fields embedded, make any change and then save the file. After re-opening the file, the Acrobat PDF text fields are no longer present.
Expected results: Acrobat PDF text fields in a Illustrator file should be retained upon save. Up to version 27.5, Illustrator did respect and retain PDF text fields, I started noticing the issue in Illustrator 27.6.1 and 27.7

This is happening to our company as well, we had to downgrade to 27.5 in order to not have our workflow interrupted so much.
