1. Export for screens too slow when saving PDF multiple times

   I use export for screens to export many artboards in PDF for simple vector artwork like brand assets (brandwithtagline, horizontallogo, verticallogo, symbol, brandblue, brandyellow, etc.) everytime I need to export the same file multiple times for Pantone, CMYK and RGB versions of those same artboards, but every time I export, the time it takes increases. For example: one file with 80 artboards take 0:10s to save each artboard as a separte file in Ai format, but takes 2:00s to save in PDF for first batch, then 2:50s for second batch and gets slower and slower. The problem don't happens when I save in PNG or SVG formats and I need to restart the computer to fix it.

   I use Win10 - 20H2, Illustrator 25.2.3 and I am saving the files in a fast M.2 drive, the PC, I believe, it's not the problem, it's a Ryzen 9 5900X with 32GB of RAM and my notebook (i7 9750H also with 32GB of RAM) have the same problem. Looking in the system monitor, it shows that the Illustrator only use one single core to save the files unfortunately.

   Is this a Windows problem or a Illustrator one?

4. Exported ai files cannot be saved again

   Problem Description:
   When exporting an ai file via script or action, the exported ai file cannot be [Save], [Save As], or [Save a Copy].

   • Specify ILLUSTRATOR11 or lower for compatibility and true for saveMultipleArtboards.
   • This problem does not occur when ILLUSTRATOR12 or higher is specified or saveMultipleArtboards is false.
   • The version of the original ai file is not relevant to the operation.
   • It happens in both ExtendScript and AppleScript.

   Environment:
   • macOS 10.14.6
   • Illustrator CS6(16.2.1)-2021(25.2.3)

   Steps to Reproduce:
   1. Open an appropriate ai file and execute the script in the [Code to execute] section.
   2. Open the exported ai file in Illustrator, edit it in some way, and save it.

   Actual Result:
   Illustrator will not be able to save the document and nothing will happen. The file name displayed in the window is still marked with *. When I close the document, it asks me if I want to save it, but I cannot save it.

   Expected Result:
   The document will be saved.

   Any Workarounds:
   • Save the document manually, without going through any scripts or actions.

   Similar report:
   SAVING FILE NOT WORKING – Adobe Illustrator
   File won't SAVE nor SAVE AS; only SAVE AS COPY – Adobe Illustrator

   Code to execute:
   ```
   (function() {
   var doc = app.documents[0] ;
   var dstFile = new File(doc.fullName).saveDlg() ;
   if(!dstFile) {return ;}

   var aiOpt = new IllustratorSaveOptions() ;
   aiOpt.compatibility = Compatibility.ILLUSTRATOR10 ;
   aiOpt.saveMultipleArtboards = true ;
   aiOpt.artboardRange = '1' ;

   doc.saveAs(dstFile, aiOpt) ;
   })() ;
   ```

   The following is in Japanese>

   書き出したaiファイルが2度と保存できない

   【説明】
   スクリプトまたはアクション経由でaiファイルを書き出すと，書き出したaiファイルは［保存］［別名で保存］［複製を保存］ができなくなる。

   • compatibilityにILLUSTRATOR11かそれ以下，saveMultipleArtboardsにtrueを指定する
   • ILLUSTRATOR12以上またはsaveMultipleArtboardsがfalseの場合この問題は発生しない
   • 元となるaiファイルのバージョンは動作に関係しない
   • ExtendScriptでもAppleScriptでも起こる

   【動作環境】
   • macOS 10.14.6
   • Illustrator CS6(16.2.1)〜2021(25.2.3)

   【再現手順】
   1. 適当なaiファイルを開き，【実行するコード】項目のスクリプトを実行する
   2. 書き出されたaiファイルをIllustratorで開き，何か編集をして保存する

   【実際に起こる動作】
   Illustratorは書類を保存できず何も起こらない。ウインドウに表示されたファイル名には*がついたままでいる。書類を閉じると保存するかどうか尋ねられるが，保存はできない。

   【期待する動作】
   書類が保存される。

   【回避策】
   • スクリプトやアクションを経由せず，手作業で保存する

5. Illustrator CC 2020 Saving Unknown Error

   Illustrator won't let me save my files. I've tried to open another new file to save my files and the same error has occurred unless I have the "Create PDF Compatible File" option turned off. I have never encountered this before and this is my first time encountering this problem.

6. Add title in svg export

   I would like a way to add a title to exported SVGs.

   You should be able to set this at the artboard level, not just at the document level.

   This would greatly improve the accessibility of exported SVGs and simplify workflows.

7. Bad image quality on Export Asset

   If I use Export Asset, fine details in patterns get smeared and destroyed in the resulting bitmap (png). This happens regardless of whether I scale the object up, or export at super high resolution.

   If I use normal Export, the detail is as expected. In fact, this happens even at very low resolutions where you naturally expect to lose detail. Regardless, Illustrator does attempt to preserve brightness and detail as best as possible given the resolution when choosing normal Export. But with Export Asset, the behavior is totally different and, honestly, unusable in most cases.

8. Perte d'une fonctionnalité qui était très pratique : l'arborescence lors de l'import de fichiers DXF.

   Depuis la version 25.1 perte d'une fonctionnalité qui était très pratique : l'arborescence lors de l'import de fichiers DXF.
   Lors de l'import de fichiers DXF à partir d'un logiciel CAD (Solid Edge), chaque pièce de l'assemblage était reconnue par Illustrator (1 pièce = 1 calque).
   Ce n'est plus le cas depuis les dernières mise à jour (dernière mise à jour qui fonctionne : 25.0.1)

9. All PNG's exported are blurry

   Every time I export a file to PNG, it comes out blurry. It also appears blurry when I turn on the pixel preview. I have never experienced this problem until I recently updated my version of Illustrator. Exporting to PDF does not cause an issue.

   I am using Windows 10 Pro version 19042.746, with Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-10500T CPU @ 2.30GHz 2.30 GHz, Installed ram: 32.0 GB (31.8 GB usable), 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor.

   Illustrator version 25.1

13. AI files opening as old versions

    Illustrator is intermittently not properly saving my files and is opening old versions of the AI file.

    This is my workflow:

    Create design and save AI file. Save PDF file and send to client. Receive amends, open AI file and amend + save. Save PDF file and send to client.

    Repeat until the design is approved.

    At this point I open the AI file and prepare the print files for production.

    However, the AI file is opening as an older version and does not have the latest amends saved. This is costing us £100s in incorrectly manufactured items.

    PLEASE HELP!!!

19. Save as .ai can be interrupted by another save

    If you are working on a new document, or opened an EPS or PDF, hit save as .ai and it does the background save, if you dont wait or dont realize it isnt finished, and try to save as PDF by way of example, the first save will not complete (ever) and this may result in a loss of data. Very reproducible
