Paths in pattern fill are missing when exported via Export for Screens
When exporting a vector image, some of the paths in my pattern fill are disappearing. It's weird because in the Export for Screens dialog it shows up fine, but when actually exported the paths are missing.

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…

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.

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 -
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)

SVG text export inconsistent failure 23.0.1
On SVG export, one text node receives ID as expected, the other is wrapped in a <g> and given the id that should be on the text node (which has no id).
I don't know how to produce this result—it's happening intermittently in a large existing file. I was only able to whittle it down to an example, but this system won't let me attach an illustrator file (lol)

Devanagari scripts
The use of devanagari scripts in most Creative Suite is really laborious. It took me a long time before finding the way to have a correct display of simple copy/paste from Word or any other source of hindi or sanskrit texts by adjusting, in TWO différents dialog boxes the appropriate settings. I finally found the way to do it but, as I wanted to use a composition in a webpage, I exported my composition as SVG, and the result was just terrible: no word was correctly spelled and I had to retype all of them in Dreamweaver (which has a…

"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.

Export fails for path item with pattern stroke
Using File -> Export -> Save for Web or File -> Export -> Export For Screens (at scale greater than 1x) will give an error: "Could not complete this operation. An unknown error has occurred". This error only occurs when this particular item is visible and involved in the area to be exported.
See attached file and screenshots including that of mentioned path item.2 votes -
"Save as SVG" exports mojibake-parttern-ID when it contains CJK character
Illustrator CC 2018 (v22.1) on Windows 7
When I save the attached document as SVG in any setting, the stripe patterns had gone completely. I checked up the exported SVG file and noticed the pattern ID defines itself correctly, but actual tag id referenced by "xlink:href" attribute is a wrong mojibake-ID.
And I know this will not happen when use "Export for Screen". It export correctly, but not scriptable. I think it very strange...

The preview is incorrect because some images are missing
Ever since at least Illustrator version 29.8.5, I've been having preview issues with linked images. Some images are missing from my preview.
I tested it in Illustrator 30.3, and the problem persists.

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!
