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 -
Illustrator crashes when saving as CC (legacy)

4- Illustrator suddenly crashes without warning.2 votes -
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…

Illustrator not allowing file saving bug
The Save or Save As functions aren't working. After going to File and selecting either one, nothing happens. I'm left with work unsaved and at risk of losing. This hasn't happened before and I have been using illustrator perfectly for the last 6 months.
I have a MacBook Air, macOS catalina version 10.15.5.
I have Adobe Illustrator 2020.

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.

Repeated objects are invisible when an SVG is opened in Illustrator
When the attached SVG is opened in Adobe Illustrator 2020 - second usages of glyphs (B, 2, 0) are not displayed properly like in attached screenshot.
Is this an issue with original SVG (it looks fine in Chrome or Firefox) or Illustrator?2 votes -
SVG paste truncating curves
Pasting SVG seems a bit broken. I have 1778 curves that I've copied from Rhino 3D WIP (it copies as SVG). I paste it to Illustrator, and Most of the curves automatically change to straight. Not only that, but it's automatically merging some of the points that are close together.
This leads me to believe that Illustrator is rounding the points lower than it should.
Enter Inkscape. I pasted there, and it's fine. I wanted to check to see if it was a failure of Rhino. So copied from Inkscape and paste to Illustrator... same issue.
Copy only a Little…

Background Save does not work
Background Save does not work in Illustrator unless very specific conditions are met (must be a PDF-compatible AI file). Many users prefer to work with PDF switched off - and background save should also work when saving the file as a PDF document. It's basically a half-finished feature and should work under all circumstances and conditions.

Subsequent document saves create temp files and fail to save
Whilst working on a document in the latest version of Illustrator, any subsequent saves after the initial first saves is not guaranteed to have saved. Instead I may find a temp file in the folder alongside the original version rather than the fresh updated document. This is the first time in any versions of Illustrator that I have experienced this and am extremely worried as to what other documents have supposedly been updated but haven't really?
Before you ask, yes, I did refresh my folders and also opened the illustrator file to only find that the changes made have not…

Transparent PNG exporting fine but gives black background when importing
I used Illustrator 24.1.1 to export transparent PNG images. I can use these images in other programs and as web images but when I want to use them in Illustrator again it opens with a black background. I've tried to copy and paste the images, I've tried to place it and even to open it and then drag it to my workspace. Nothing works. I'm using Windows 10.

Asset Export does NOT retain the layer name
When selecting two or more elements in a layer named "A" for instance, and adding to the Asset Export panel with the single plus button, it renames it 'Asset1' or something random.
HOWEVER, if that same layer is nested one level deep, clicking the multiple + add button adds it as a SINGLE object, WITH the proper name.
Very funky indeed.
Need the single add button to just simply add it with the name of the layer.
Here's a notion of what I mean (includes several long standing bugs in Asset Export)

When importing PSD files with layers into AI, if you 'outline', masks get deleted and transparency made 100%
When importing PSD files containing smart objects into AI, the masks get deleted and opacity reverts to 100% when you create outlines (and it is really dangerous cos I only export to AI as a last step before i print, so this can be easy to miss!!!!).
You can rasterize smart objects before exporting them as a work around, but that's not a great solution really, and means you are best creating a copy of the layer if you don't want to lose fidelity.

SVG files not properly being displayed in Adobe Illustrator

save change
I opened an existing Illustrator .ai file. Changed the colour of an object's stroke. Saved. Closed. Then I noticed the change was not there.
Repeated several times. Kept trying to make the change and command-s.
I could see the colour change when I changed the value, but saving did nothing. I noticed that after making the change, the red circle at the top left of the window did not get a black dot to indicate an unsaved change.
I finally did a Save As to make it remember the change. Using Illustrator 24.2 on Mac OS 10.13.62 votes -
