Files with extra-long file names aren’t saved on Windows, without a warning
If the file name is too long for Windows 10, no error message is generated but the file is not saved.
Interestingly, the thumbnail on the Home page for AI shows the final version of the artwork, but clicking on it opens the last one actually saved instead. I didn't know what had happened and closed/reopened AI to get AI to open the correct file, then saw the file did not actually exist.
I was able to recover my work because the last 3 tmp files were not removed, so I renamed the extensions to "ai" and got my work…

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)

Unable to save Illustrator file as SVG using artboards
We use Illustrator to draw lots of icons.
If we place each icon on an artboard and try to save each artboard to a file by selecting Save as > SVG > Use artboards > All, we expect multiple icons to be saved to multiple SVG files.We actually get multiple SVG files, but each SVG contains all layer names from the original file and one SVG icon.
It would be very helpful, if manual cleanup after saving / exporting wasn't necessary.
2 votesNils, please try export svg through File > Export > Export As > SVG and let us know the result

"Export as" not working as expected
When I use File > Export > Xxport as ...e.g. png, using the "Use artboards" function the "Save As" dialog isn't working properly...
Firstly, it doesn't save the name I typed exactly... "Version 1.2.png" it somehow uses parts of already existing file names like "Version 1.2_Text.png" which is really weird...
Secondly, if I use parts of the name of a file that already exists like "Text_Version 1.2.png" in the saving process and Text.png already exists it asks me if I want to overwrite that file...
2 votesIf you still have the problem, please share a test file and a strict chain of steps to reproduce the problem, ideally with a video attached the team can follow. Please mention the exact names for the files already existing in the target folder also, if it matters.

Transparency Lost in After Effects When Importing v30 AI Files
Transparency Information Lost When Importing Illustrator v30 AI Files into After Effects 2026
Environment:
- Hardware: MacBook Pro 16-inch (November 2023), Apple M3 Pro, 36GB RAM
- OS: macOS Sequoia 15.7.4
- Illustrator version with issue: v30.2.1 (2026)
- Illustrator version without issue: v28.7.10 (2024)
- After Effects version: 2026When an .ai file saved in Illustrator 2026 (v30) is imported as footage into After Effects 2026, transparency information — including blend modes, opacity settings, and effects such as drop shadows — is lost or ignored. Affected layers render as fully opaque.
Re-saving the identical artwork in Illustrator 2024 (v28.7.10)…
1 voteHi,
Thank you for reporting this issue. Could you please try reproducing the workflow on the latest version of Illustrator (v30.3) and let us know if the issue still persists?
Thanks,

AI2025 v29.7.1 bug: SVG 1.1 is not accurately rendering
AI2025 v29.7.1 bug: SVG 1.1 is not accurately rendering vector files. Even upping the decimal places, it's downsampling vectors and oversimplifying more detailed curves. Reverting to SVG 1.0 works fine. Please fix this!

Latest version of illustrator (v29.1) does not export pngs with the same pixel placements as the one before.
Export from the new version of illustrator places artwork off center: Up and to the left slightly. This causes SO much work in our pipeline, please fix this urgently.
1 voteAnders, please share a test file and the exact setting and the method you use to export an image.

PDF export misses
After performing "Save a copy" and choosing the PDF, the PDF created does not contain all the art of the artboard. It seems random with no consistency as to what is affected.
- Sometimes ungrouping helps, 50%. Most often I have to delete the art and replace it.
- Could even be the same art that appears on another page, so its not errors in the art.
- Could be copy or vector work.
- Does not matter if its save as smallest size or other size1 voteThe team would need the test file you can reliably reproduce the problem, the steps to reproduce it, the exact OS specs and the version of Illustrator used. A video can also help to study the issue.
If you can share the file publicly — please attach it in the comments. If if you are not allowed to do so or you do not want to make it public — you can send it over to sharewithai@adobe.com

上書き保存時に時々保存前のaiデータが勝手に複製される
バージョンはCC2022です。
「sample.ai」のデータを上書き保存すると「ai100000000sample.ai」（0部分は任意の数字）というファイルが時々勝手に複製されます。
削除しようとしても「権限がありません」と出て消せません（再起動すると消せるようになることがあります）
バグなのか設定の問題なのかわからなかったのでここで質問させていただきます。1 voteお手数ですが、一度こちらのAdobe Support Communityにございます内容をお試しいただけないでしょうか。
引き続きどうぞよろしくお願いいたします。
