File cannot be saved as png
Windows 10 Pro version 1909. Illustrator v 25.2.1.
I am trying to export a file as a .png. It is very large (15000 px x 9000 px at 300 dpi), and it comes up with this error every time: The operation cannot complete because of an unknown error. [!now].
I have also tried exporting the image as a much smaller file with the same error. The file I'm trying to export is a floral pattern I've created using the pattern tool.

Unwanted bounding box
I'm working on a
MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Mid 2015)
Processor 2,2 GHz Quad-Core Intel Core i7
Memory 16 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
Graphics Intel Iris Pro 1536 MBTwo bounding boxes appear in my .ai file they wouldn't have bothered me if it weren't for the fact that they distort the design on export.
Looking forward to hearing from you.
Best regards,

SVG Import damaged
Windows 10 latest, Illustrator 25.2
Importing a Svg vector city map, the street names are not rendered any more. The file works perfect in Inkscape and any Browser, but since some versions of Illustrator they are gone. Installing the latest available 24.3 version, the problem persists.
Is there a download option for older versions since 24.3, since some versions before it worked over years.
File upload doesn't seem to work here neither...2 votes -
Illustrator reverts back to Style Elements instead of Presentation Attributes for svg
BUG:
Steps to reproduce:
- Open an SVG file.
- Save as; in the dialogue for CSS Properties select <Presentation Attributes>

I expect that opening the file in a text editor will show that presentation attributes are used, such as fill=noneActual behaviour:
The file now contains style elements plus layer names that were removed have been named to Layer 12 votes -
Latest Version just quits on its own
Luckily I was in front of my computer as it happened so I could save the current files that were open but without needing an update to Illustrator or the OS, the app suddenly just started a quit sequence on its own.

"Save" action aborted by a subsequent "Save as" action
I'm using Version 25.0 on a Mac with Catalina OS (10.15.7). In all past versions of Illustrator, once you had initiated a "Save", nothing could interrupt that. Now, saves are both slower and interruptible. If I try to "Save" my .AI file, then do my "Save as low-res PDF" action to export a version for clients, the "Save as low-res PDF" action will cancel the "Save" if it's not yet complete. And there is no indication that this has happened. This means my AI file will revert to the old version without my knowledge, while the low-res PDF will be…

Cannot open any .ai file
Windows 10 64-bit (latest update) and Illustrator v 25.1
Opening a file from Explorer and with [File] > [Open...], yet the Illustrator application does not react. I also cannot open files that are stored in the cloud. There is no error, the app is just not responding, yet not crashing.Update: The issue is not with the files that I'm trying to open. They aren't corrupt or anything. I cannot even create a new project file. Templates wont load either. The hands-on tutorial do not start, too.

Files save backwards
Saving files (even new ones) is not functioning correctly. I will save a document only to next make a PDF for client review and go back to make changes and either nothing is there or the file is saved as a previous revision, not the one I saved as. Very harmful for my work environment. This is a MAJOR issue, not a minor bug.

Illustrator not opening Fusion 360 DXFs after 25.0.1
The primary reason I use Illustrator (on my Intel Mac running Big Sur) is to further process the DXFs generated by Fusion 360 and prepare them for laser cutting. Recently, illustrator started opening these files as blank, even though online viewers display them just fine. According to internet research, this should have been fixed in version 25.0.1. However, after updating and reinstalling illustrator the issue persists. This is incredibly frustrating as my laser has been unused for a number of weeks as I can’t prepare files. Please fix!

illustrator is unable to save this document ... due to some unexpected errors.
Prior that, I get a message saying "This file has been modified outside Illustrator. Do you want to continue?" Then I click yes.
Then... "Illustrator is unable to save this document ... due to some unexpected errors."
I've been getting this message every now and then whenever I try to save a document. Started when I updated my Adobe Illustrator to version 25.0.
Save a copy yields the same result.

Version 4 ICC profiles were converted to version 2 ICC profiles.
I get this message:
"Version 4 ICC profiles were converted to version 2 ICC profiles."
whenever I save a PDF when using the GRACoL_CRPC6.icc profile. I get it regardless of whether an image has been placed in the document or not.It is very inconvenient to have to click to dismiss this message every time I make a PDF, which over the course of job will amount to 100s of times. Also it means our automation of PDF making is interrupted and requires an operator to pay attention the whole time.
Thanks

Exporting from AI to Jpg/PNG - Thin line at bottom of photo.
When exporting and AI file (Logo in this case) to a JPG/PNG format from AI, each image had a thin black line at the frame of the image on the bottom. There was nothing on the artboards that would have caused this. I had to open the exported images in photoshop and remove the line manually. Image attached.

Save for Web Preview
This has bugged me for a very long time. When exporting, often the image looks like it will be missing a pixel width along the edge unless you increase the image size to go over the artboard vs. exactly fitting the artboard.
I check the dimensions of the art and, for example, it's 1920x1080 perfectly aligned in the corner at x=0 and y=0, yet you can see the missing pixel along the left edge. And, if I export it, it indeed is missing the pixel.2 votes -

SVGs opened in Illustrator don't include blend modes
I created an SVG in Illustrator that has some layers using the blend mode "overlay". I export out the SVG and it looks perfect. If I open that SVG in Illustrator it turns the blend modes into "normal" instead of "overlay".

SVG Text Export - multilayer bug
I am having an issue with text on a path and after SVG export the code shows the text now broken to multiple layers - this does not translate appropriately to web. This happens specifically if the text path is an angle interval of 45 degrees; intervals of 90 degrees work fine, all other degrees break this text path apart during export.
I am wondering if there is a way around this, or a different manner in which I should place text so that it may still be placed at a specific angle but remain all on the same layer…

Issues with using Assets Export in Isolation mode
If you enter the isolation mode of any objects and try to export any artboard by using Assets Export, it will eventually generate the wrong assets. However, if you exit the Isolation mode and try again to the same process, it will be all fine.
