Drop shadows in .ai files hide original object
When drop shadows are applied to placed images and the file is saved, only the drop shadow shows up both in the preview on MacOS, as well as when importing to InDesign or Photoshop. RGB or CMYK (in Illustrator) doesn't matter, the placed object is always missing.

There’s an existing report, about images embedded on saving only:

Does it feel like the same issue to you? -
Ted, can you please share the exact settings used to save a file, a simple test file itself, and mention the exact build numbers for all the apps?
