1. A lot of empty PNG when using Export for Screens function

   When exporting with Export for Screens, many empty pngs are created in the file folder. The bug occurs completely randomly. The number of files also defies any explanation. There may be 10 or 1000 files at a time.

   System: Windows 10, Illustrator v.26.0.3

   New details: this bug occurs if you copy complex graphics to the clipboard. Video attached. I suspect the meshes are to blame.

   Update: If you disable Clipboard Handling → Include SVG Code or clipboard log Windows, the problem disappears.

3. Exporting assets as SVG with asset export tool is buggy

   Asset export in illustrator is a very convenient tool, the only problem I found is when exporting my drawings to SVGs they get distorted, but when I take my objects one by one to a single document and fit them in an artboard and save the document as SVG the problem resolves (a big process), essentially because SVG saving settings for saving a document isn't the same when for exporting with asset export, I believe it isn't a big problem to solve and I hope for it to get fixed soon, I can reply with images to assist my point.

   Thank you

4. Missing transparency in placed PDFs

   I do have issues with Illustrator displaying transparencies of placed PDFs as solid.

   Steps to reproduce:

   1. Open a new document.
   2. Draw two partially overlapping rectangles with different colors.
   3. Set he opacity of the frontmost rectangle to 50%.
   4. Save this document as a PDF with setting Illustrator Standard (see attached file).
   5. Open a second document.
   6. Place the PDF file.

   Expected result:

   The topmost rectangle should be displayed with transparency.

   Actual result:

   The topmost rectangle is not transparent.

   If you save the document with the placed PDF itself as PDF file, the rectangle is still transparent, so this is a display issue of Illustrator. Now it’s getting really weird: If you place this second PDF file in a new Illustrator document … all looks fine.

   I am using Illustrator 25.0.1 on MacOS 10.14.6.

6. TIFF形式で書き出す時に日本語でファイル名をつけるとTIFFファイルのレイヤー名が文字化けする

   Illustrator ver25.3.1 ja_JP/Macintosh
   macOS10.15.6

   再現手順
   １．アートボード上にアートワークを用意する。
   ２．ファイルメニュより「書き出し＞書き出し形式」を選択しオプションのTIFFファイルを選択する。
   ３．書き出されたTIFFファイルをPhotoshopで開くとレイヤー名が文字化けしている。

   結果
   TIFFファイルのレイヤー名が文字化けしている。

   期待する結果
   TIFFファイルのレイヤー名がver.25.2.3での結果のように正常に出力される。

   これは大勢に影響のない問題ですが、一連のUnicodeテキストの取り扱いに関する不具合だと考えられます。
   書き出されたTIFFファイルのイメージリソースブロック中の8BIMシグネチャ（TIFFファイルはリトルエンディアンですからファイル内のバイト順序は逆転してMIB8で保持されています）の関連する識別子が２つあります。このうちnormがシフトJISコードでビッグエンディアンにて記述されます。もうひとつのluniはUnicodeでリトルエンディアンで記述されるのが本来の状態です。このluniの方が文字化けを起こす要因です。しかし、どの様な変換エラーなのかまでは把握できませんでした。以下は不具合が生じている部分の抜粋です。いずれもファイル名は「テスト-1.tif」としています。

   ver.25.2.3による出力
   C630 B930 C830 2D00 3100

   ver.25.3.1での出力
   C900 6500 C900 5800 C900 6700 2D00 3100

   ※各文字コードはリトルエンディアンですからUnicodeLTとなります。
   ※最新版のPhotoshopはmormの方を正しく出力出来ないバグが存在します。

7. Saving error Adobe Illustrator 2020 [24.0.1]

   When saving an existing ai document that I have made an alt to illustrator keeps giving me a save error.

   Illustrator tried, but could not save the file 'file name' Click "Learn more" to try alternate options for saving a file.

   If I then use the 'save as' command and save over the top of the existing ai it will save. Illustrator leaves a .tmp file in the same folder as my ai. I may work on the file a few more time re-saving using the 'save' command with no issue and then randomly I will save and we go through the same issue all over again.

   This happens multiple time throughout the day on any ai file I'm working on.

   .tmp files just keep piling up until I delete them.

   Could this be a compatibility issue if I am still using MacOS Mojave 10.14.6 and Adobe Illustrator 2020 [24.0.1]

8. Hex Color vs Save

   Windows: 10.0.17763.557
   Illustrator: 23.0.3 (64-bit)
   Processor: Intel i7 8700k
   RAM: 16GB
   GPU: NVidia GTX970

   When I change the color of an object via hex code, Illustrator changes the color but does not detect that an edit has occurred to enable the save option.

   Step by step:
   1 - Create a new file in Illustrator in RGB mode.
   2 - Type M and create a rectangle.
   3 - Fill in the rectangle with any color.
   4 - Save and close the file.
   5 - Reopen the file.
   6 - Select the rectangle.
   7 - Press F6 to open the color panel. Choose the RGB mode.
   8 - In the color panel change the color through the # field and press enter.
   9 - Close the document.

   You will notice that Illustrator did not ask if you wanted to save the change.

9. Adding an asset to the Asset Export panel adds another object with it

   In the attached document when selecting one object and adding it to the Asset Export panel (with or without 'Option' key pressed), it'll always add the Light Red Curved brush the artboard #1, as if this line magnetized to all vectors on that artboard.

10. File size growing increasing bloating

    Illustrator 22.0.1 (64bit), Windows 10 64bit (latest version), 64GB RAM, 3.5Ghz 12 core CPU, 2x large SSDs

    As of last week, I have been encountering an issue with file sizes growing larger and larger each time I save. The file grows even when I only move or even delete objects. The larger the file becomes the more it adds with each save, and the slower it becomes. It’s as though it’s doing something like saving history states (although not in any useful way).

    This is a huge problem; the project file I’m currently working on, though modest in complexity (75k points, only a few effects going on) compared to other files I work on, has grown to over 130MB when I’d expect it to be around 20MB. Each time save the file, even to remove parts of the picture, it adds MBs to the file size. It’s currently taking 30 seconds to save. It has ceased to be usable.

    Things I’ve tested in an attempt to resolve the issue:
    • Uninstalling plugins
    • Reinstalling illustrator
    • Testing files on 3 other PCs around the office (they all have the same issue)
    • Deleting all objects with effects of all sorts
    • Expanding artwork
    • Deleting symbols, graphic styles, swatches etc
    • Vector First Aid, removing points, unnecessary groups, masks etc. (before I tried uninstalling plugins obviously)
    • changing colour mode
    • 300dpi > 72dpi raster effects

    None of that helped.

    I also tried making a small file and adding text and paths, then saving and moving objects and re-saving; the file starts small but grows with each save. The larger the file size becomes, the more the file size grows, regardless of the artwork complexity.

    The ONLY thing reduces the file size back to normal is saving in CS6 format.

11. Suffix still gets added when an image is exported even though the option to add it is disabled

    While exporting a AI file to, for example JPG, the checkbox for automatic file extension (suffix) is unchecked. When I export it, the filename gets a extension (suffix) '-01' behind it. When I export, check the box, and uncheck it, the file saves without the extension (suffix), like it should. So every time I have to check and uncheck the option before exporting. Very annoying. Never had this issue before.

    Newest updated installed 29.6.1 on Windows 10 Pro.

    Anyone else has the same issue?

    The team investigates this

12. Export As does not respect Large Canvas scale (Illustrator 29.2.1)

    If you are in a "large canvas" document, when using the "Export As" menu to export PNG(s), the resulting files are 1/10th the dimensions they should be. For example, if I have 100" x 100" artboards and export them at 72dpi, the resulting images should be 7200x7200 pixels, but they are only 720x720 (but still at 72dpi). This happens with "Use Artboards" checked or unchecked, and only seems to affect PNG export and not other file types.

    I'm not sure what version this first appeared in, but I know that previous versions of Illustrator behaved correctly.

13. SVG Precision and options are reset on every launch of IL. Add a place in IL preferences allowing users to permanently set SVG precision.

    I've gone over this problem in detail on the forums here:

    https://community.adobe.com/t5/illustrator-discussions/opening-a-svg-and-then-re-saving-it-causes-severe-distortions-in-the-resulting-file/m-p/15123107#M434142

    Illustrator's precision for saving out SVG files has a default of 1 decimal place. This can cause severe path distortion and rounding errors in the resulting file if you simply save it with CTRL+S.

    This precision setting is reset to 1 after closing and re-opening Illustrator no matter what settings you have applied in the past. To rectify this, you have to:

    1. FIRST select "Save As..."
    2. Choose SVG as your format.
    3. Click save and wait for the SVG options dialog to appear.
    4. Change the precision value from 1 decimal place to something like 5-6.

    If you don't do this, any SVG you open and save (even if no edit was made) will likely end up malformed.

    You can replicate this by opening a SVG, nudging it maybe a pixel or two, and then saving it with ctrl+s. Re-open the file and then observe the obvious distortions and rounding errors.

    Right now, as it stands, It's so easy to corrupt any icons you might be working on if you are making changes from SVG to SVG.

    All you have to do is make a small modification, hit CTRL+S, and then ... boom! Your file is now instantly corrupted and rounding errors distort your paths.

    Here is an example.

    Original Image:

    https://community.adobe.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/784478i544B7B1A8591C865/image-size/large/is-moderation-mode/true?v=v2&px=999

    Re-Saved Image:

    https://community.adobe.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/784479i67374AE1F641A82B/image-size/large/is-moderation-mode/true?v=v2&px=999

    I urgently request that Adobe does something about this, such as letting users define their default save options somewhere in the preferences so that this sticks permanently. Right now, precision is reset to 1 decimal place on every launch of the application.

    Please add an "Export Options" section to the application preferences, or a menu item that allows us to set a default SVG export profile.

    I beg that someone on the team incorporates an option to fix this!

    Thanks so much for reading.

14. Pantone or other book colors in a CMYK document look fine in Overprint preview mode but get exported to an RGB images as dull

    When we add a Pantone or a different book color into a CMYK document, we can see how it looks 'for real' when we enable Overprint mode — all fair.

    Then we would need to share this image with a client, so we export an RGB image... and this image shows out vivid book color as a dull-and converted-to-CMYK-and-then-to-RGB color — which is not what we have in mind.

    This is a bug, honestly, I think, but also a request — we need to be able to export images as we see them in Overprint Preview mode... Ai respect overprints (there was a problem with that: http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/37832167), but not fully when it comes to book colors.

    The only way to workaround is to temporarily switch the document’s color mode into RGB (and not to forget to undo this later).

15. Export As SVG - incorrect size

    I compared the results of the "Save As SVG" and "Export As SVG" commands.
    I found that the "Export" option often produces incorrect sizes, especially with patterns containing a lot of fine details.

    The decimal point settings are the same in both cases.

16. 'Share a review link to your file' advertisement dialog still pops when disabled

    Sometimes, when I save a PDF file (at least in Illustrator Beta), I get this dialog.
    I would like to see it go away forever.

    It pops up in the most inopportune moment — when I already decided to save a PDF and when I need to SAVE my data, and not to TRY something new. 'Come not between a user and his saved data'. Saving a file is an emergency operation — always, each time — JUST DON’T INTERFERE.

    Even though I already chose to never see it again, I still get it. Just use 1KB of your Cloud Storage per user to remember this choice. UV has a lot of request about you finally learn to sync settings, but do at least just that now.

    Also — the shady and dirty UX pattern when you hide the Don’t Show checkbox within a button. A button that does not look like a dropdown should never work as one. This approach doesn’t increase trust, it repulse.

17. Changing color via Hex doesn't count as an action, so save does not update file

    When changing the color of a selected object, if you paste a hex number in to the color palette window and hit enter the object will change to the correct color. However, the program does not register this as an action/history change. So you can’t hit save and have the color change applied to the saved the file. This also is apparent in that it doesn’t become an “Undo Color” item under the Edit menu. Besides pasting a Hex color, I get the same bug if I type a Hex color in.

    Any other form of changing the color of the object works as expected:
    clicking a swatch
    adjusting the RGB or CMYK sliders
    using the RGB spectrum/eye dropper
    using the eyedropper tool to select color from other object

    All of these items log and action as an undoable step, and therefore after the color change the file is seen as revised and therefore can be saved immediately after the Hex color adjustment.

    Currently work around is to do and additional action after changing the color. For instance: copy/paste then delete the object selected in order to go through some history steps to get back to state of file after color change and then hit save.

    To summarize steps to replicate:
    Open existing file
    Select object(s)
    Adjust color fill by pasting or typing in a Hex color code, hit enter
    Object(s) will adjust to new color
    (at this point the application does not register under the edit menu that a new change has occurred)
    Therefore, hitting keyboard shortcut to Save file has no action (Save is gray in menu)

    Thank you for taking a look at this.

    Done (Available in Beta)  ·  AdminEgor Chistyakov (Admin, Adobe Illustrator) responded

    The latest Beta 29.4.0.37 now correctly treats a document as changed when a color code is paste into the HEX field in the Color panel with an object selected.

    Please test it and comment back.

18. Editing Adobe PDF Presets crashes Illustrator

    When trying to edit a Adobe PDF Preset in Illustrator it crashes on hitting OK to save. I have tried deleting all preferences and uninstalling and reinstalling Illustrator but no luck. For most things this would not be an issue since I can overwrite most setting by saving it in InDesign and overwriting with the same name (Why can't we do this in Illustrator?) This is happening on Illustrator version 26.0.3 on Mac OS 12.0.1 Intel iMac. I have added a quick screen grab. It doesn't matter what I try to edit.

19. File won't SAVE nor SAVE AS; only SAVE AS COPY

    Working on MacBook Pro, Catalina OS, Illustrator 25.2
    The "SAVE" file is not an option. Whether an existing (an existing file with or without changes), or a new file - I cannot "SAVE".

    The "SAVE AS" option looks to be available, but then it does not work.

    The only thing that is a workable option is "SAVE AS COPY". Which is nonsense. This just started happening and I can't fix it. I've tried uninstalling Illustrator and re-installing. No change.

    This is completely unacceptable and I've wasted 3 hours of precious deadline time trying to figure this out. HELP!!!

    ARGH!!!!

20. Please allow fill="currentcolor" to be set for SVGs

    It is still necessary to open (hundreds of) SVG icons individually with a text editor to set their fill colour to current. This is quite an impediment. I would also like to set classes or styles to be exported with the SVG.
    Thanks!
