Can't open my most recent aic file
Using windows 10. I created the file on v25.0 of illustrator and yesterday updated to v25.01 and the file continued to work fine and my work was saved.
Today I am unable to open that one file from my cloud documents. On the illustrator home page if I click on the file preview nothing happens, whereas with every other document clicking on the preview opens the document. I have tried opening it from my cloud storage webpage but it just opens the home page of the desktop app. It also says there's an error when I try to download the…

Export Artboards occasionally exports bleed
I'm using Windows 10, up to date as of 8th Nov 2020.
I have a new file, 85mm x 55mm. set up with a 3mm bleed. When attempting to export a JPG or PNG without the bleed (so, only the artboard visible) it still outputs the bleed area. I have tried exporting for screen, exporting with the 'Use Artboards' box both checked and unchecked. I have even reset my Illustrator preferences. No idea why this is suddenly not working in V25.0
I also get an error when attempting to export at 300DPI, which has never been an issue in the…

Illustrator CC 2018 in macOS High Sierra Save 'Adobe PDF' presets/.joboptions scrambled, unsorted, mixed up
Since the Illustrator CC got updated to 2018 in macOS High Sierra, whenever saving as Adobe PDF, the PDF print settings/job options got all scrambled/mixed up in the 'Save Adobe PDF' dialog.
These should be sorted alphabetically, but as you can see they're all mixed up. A couple of colleagues are also experiencing this. Is there any way to workaround/fix this issue? See related thread from InDesign - could a startup JSX fix this issue?

some graphics missing when exporting artboard using "export as"
Hello, I am experiencing strange results during artboard export - after export to bitmap file, there is often some part of graphics missing. Latest example is this - the 1pt stroke, visible in editor, is not present on exported image. Simillar result achieved in numerous different cases, ussually some shapes or contours with white color are missing in exported image. I am includign source files, you will have the background photo link missing, but this can be replaced with any colored box with same result. This is dangerous bug, because you have to control your exports carefully, and is easy…

A lot of empty PNG when using Export for Screens function
When exporting with Export for Screens, many empty pngs are created in the file folder. The bug occurs completely randomly. The number of files also defies any explanation. There may be 10 or 1000 files at a time.
System: Windows 10, Illustrator v.26.0.3
New details: this bug occurs if you copy complex graphics to the clipboard. Video attached. I suspect the meshes are to blame.
Update: If you disable Clipboard Handling → Include SVG Code or clipboard log Windows, the problem disappears.

Missing transparency in placed PDFs
I do have issues with Illustrator displaying transparencies of placed PDFs as solid.
Steps to reproduce:
- Open a new document.
- Draw two partially overlapping rectangles with different colors.
- Set he opacity of the frontmost rectangle to 50%.
- Save this document as a PDF with setting Illustrator Standard (see attached file).
- Open a second document.
- Place the PDF file.
Expected result:
The topmost rectangle should be displayed with transparency.
Actual result:
The topmost rectangle is not transparent.
If you save the document with the placed PDF itself as PDF file, the rectangle is still transparent, so this is a display issue…

Reading SVG does not respect dominant-baseline="middle" attribute
For <text> elements
dominant-baseline="hanging" and dominant-baseline="baseline" are parsed correctly, with text aligned on top and bottom, respectively.
But dominant-baseline="middle" is not respected, and is instead rendered as dominant-baseline="baseline".
This produces misaligned text, which is displayed aligned normally by Edge, Firefox, Chrome.
Cheers

Adobe Illustrator CC 2019 is not able to generate PDF-compatible files
No matter what I do (re-save as a AI, EPS, PDF, check/uncheck 'create PDF compatible file', etc...), if I save as a PDF, the PDF will show up saying "This is an Adobe Illustrator File that was saved without PDF content" etc... Is this a version 2019 bug??? What am I doing wrong?

Since this is not a generic issue that we can reproduce at our end, we will need someone to look into your machine to figure out what is going on here.

Illustrator 27.9 Adobe PDF Preset will match what it was last modified to.
This seems new to 27.9 and removes confidence in save presets.
Steps to replicate:
1) Save file as Adobe PDF format
2) Select [Smallest File Size] from presets.
3) Check Preserve Illustrator Editing Capabilities (note it now says: [Smallest File Size] (Modified))
4) Click Save PDF
5) Save file as Adobe PDF format
6) Select [Smallest File Size] from presets.Notice the Preserve Illustrator Editing Capabilities is now selected. Also notice the preset name hasn’t changed to say it's (Modified).

TIFF形式で書き出す時に日本語でファイル名をつけるとTIFFファイルのレイヤー名が文字化けする
Illustrator ver25.3.1 ja_JP/Macintosh
macOS10.15.6再現手順
１．アートボード上にアートワークを用意する。
２．ファイルメニュより「書き出し＞書き出し形式」を選択しオプションのTIFFファイルを選択する。
３．書き出されたTIFFファイルをPhotoshopで開くとレイヤー名が文字化けしている。結果
TIFFファイルのレイヤー名が文字化けしている。期待する結果
TIFFファイルのレイヤー名がver.25.2.3での結果のように正常に出力される。これは大勢に影響のない問題ですが、一連のUnicodeテキストの取り扱いに関する不具合だと考えられます。
書き出されたTIFFファイルのイメージリソースブロック中の8BIMシグネチャ（TIFFファイルはリトルエンディアンですからファイル内のバイト順序は逆転してMIB8で保持されています）の関連する識別子が２つあります。このうちnormがシフトJISコードでビッグエンディアンにて記述されます。もうひとつのluniはUnicodeでリトルエンディアンで記述されるのが本来の状態です。このluniの方が文字化けを起こす要因です。しかし、どの様な変換エラーなのかまでは把握できませんでした。以下は不具合が生じている部分の抜粋です。いずれもファイル名は「テスト-1.tif」としています。ver.25.2.3による出力
C630 B930 C830 2D00 3100ver.25.3.1での出力
C900 6500 C900 5800 C900 6700 2D00 3100※各文字コードはリトルエンディアンですからUnicodeLTとなります。
※最新版のPhotoshopはmormの方を正しく出力出来ないバグが存在します。8 votes製品フィードバックへのご協力ありがとうございます。
ご報告いただいた「日本語ファイル名で書き出した TIFF ファイルのレイヤー名が文字化け」問題を修正した、Illustrator 2021（ver.25.4.1）を一般リリースいたしました。
Creative Cloud デスクトップアプリケーションから、製品版のアップデートが可能となっておりますので、動作をお確かめください。
もし、修正されていないような場合は、コメントをお願いいたします。

Exporting assets as SVG with asset export tool is buggy
Asset export in illustrator is a very convenient tool, the only problem I found is when exporting my drawings to SVGs they get distorted, but when I take my objects one by one to a single document and fit them in an artboard and save the document as SVG the problem resolves (a big process), essentially because SVG saving settings for saving a document isn't the same when for exporting with asset export, I believe it isn't a big problem to solve and I hope for it to get fixed soon, I can reply with images to assist my point.

Saving error Adobe Illustrator 2020 [24.0.1]
When saving an existing ai document that I have made an alt to illustrator keeps giving me a save error.
Illustrator tried, but could not save the file 'file name' Click "Learn more" to try alternate options for saving a file.
If I then use the 'save as' command and save over the top of the existing ai it will save. Illustrator leaves a .tmp file in the same folder as my ai. I may work on the file a few more time re-saving using the 'save' command with no issue and then randomly I will save and we go…
