Application crash when copy/pasting SVG paths
I have several logos that were created in Inkscape and saved in SVG format that I now need to edit in Illustrator. However even after re-saving them as AI files, any attempt to copy/paste any part of the SVG paths from the logo results in an immediate application crash.
Adobe Illustrator CC (latest) Windows 10 64bit
Steps:
1. Open the attached AI file (which was converted from SVG by opening then saving in Illustrator).
2. Select any part of the logo.
3. Copy using Edit -> Copy or CTRL+C
4. Paste using Edit -> Paste or CTRL+V
5. The application…2 votesPlease get in touch with us at sharewithai@adobe.com or any of the other support channels.

Offset Path creates notches
Certain paths with certain Offset Path values create these.
Usually it’s a rather small value, but this sometimes happens with larger ones.There are other related problems with Offset Path:
1. Stroke displaying incorrectly and Offset Path broken — http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447/suggestions/39059872
2. Offset Path with small values (or Inside / Outside strokes) results in skewed lines — http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447/suggestions/394259591 vote -

Share for review comments are misaligned - about 5mm off.
Share for review comments are sometimes misaligned - about 5 mm below the actual comment.
In the case of text errors usually few lines below the actual error-comment.
Web interface shows the comments in the right place, but something bad happens when illustrator reads the comments back in. Its persistent in every illustrator version i have.
The same bug keeps following me in different illustrator versions. I'm not sure what is causing this. One time i suspected some file specific bug, but it keeps reappearing in newly created files. Might it be related to bleed settings? I don't know. But…

Error in startup script with InDesign path, line: 1 I/0 error since latest update 29.8.2
This error pops up on every Illustrator startup now:
Error in C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\Startup Scripts
CC\Adobe InDesign\indesign-v20.0.jsx
Line I:
I/0 errorTried reinstalling Creative Cloud and all apps using CC cleaner, no effect. Tried resetting preferences, no effect. Renaming the .jsx file helps but it's not recreated and presumably has some purpose (removing a similar one for Photoshop breaks Bridge Batch actions for instance).

Preview issues with Home recent files and Placed files not properly showing all artwork.
Home recent files not populating with updated artwork previews. For example: I use a personal file template, make changes, save as new, and the new file does not populate an updated preview on the home screen. Second, when placing an AI file in another AI file some of the assets are missing in the place file and/or moved and distorted - even though when I open the original file everything looks fine.

Every single time Adobe updates, all my settings and workspaces are completely wiped out
Every single time Adobe updates, all my settings and workspaces are completely wiped out. Do you have any idea how much time this wastes?
It’s beyond frustrating — it’s infuriating. And to make things worse, you keep raising prices while sneakily auto-renewing subscriptions without proper notice. This isn’t just bad service — it’s predatory. At this point, your behavior is no different from a scam.1 vote -
buscando lista de impresoras
Al intentar abrir cualquier archivo en Illustrator el programa en lugar de abrir el archivo se queda cargando y dice obteniendo lista de impresoras, carga y vuelve a iniciar la carga, como un bucle.
Al darle click en detener, el programa se bugea y solo me da la opción de cerrarlo.

Illustrator reverts all the work done and doesn’t allow to expand
It’s just I'm doing work — and it reverts back to the start of my process and isn’t saving the work I work on as I go.
Also it doesn’t let me expand shapes and sizes.1 vote -
Major Bug: Illustrator "undo"s randomly the last step (transform, move and copy using "alt")
Adobe Illustrator does randomly revert the last transformation. Sometimes it reverts movement, sometimes scaling, sometimes copy and moving using "alt".

Adobe illustrator hangs up/not responding whenever the application is closed
Whenever my adobe illustrator application is closed the hangs up for 5-10 seconds and enters "not responding" in windows before closing. This happens whether or not a file is open and has been replicated across user profiles in windows. Previous tickets with support for this issue are : ADB-39790766-X5M6, ADB-40236629-R6J6, and ADB-40751699-T0T2. I have uploaded logs from the adobe log collection tool under the following name: AdobeLogs20250711062022_057-win-GS.zxp and have a local copy as well if it is needed (unable to attach here).

Bezier handles become invisible
I use the latest version of Illustrator cc 2025, on Windows 10.
This problem has been going on for several, many versions back so it is not a version problem, but an Illustrator problem.When I work on a file for a long time, for example creating brands, so the entire table is full of tests, ideas, etc..
I noticed that after working on the document for hours, days, it gets to a point that the BUG appears...As shown in the photo, the yellow vector on the right is the original document. I cannot see on that vector and…

Verification takes too long
I just went to open an Illustrator file and it decided it need to verify Illustrator. It just took 25 minutes for the verification progress bar to complete before it even began to open the program. This is way too long when you’re under a deadline or even just trying to run a business. What a waste of time. I’ve had the same issue with Photoshop and InDesign as well when CC or the computer (I don’t know which) decides it needs to verify the program. Extraordinarily frustrating and embarrassing when working with a client.
How can the verification time…1 vote -
Constant random crashing of application (version 29.5.1) with no obvious operation as the cause (on MacOS 15.5)
I am experiencing random crashes in any file with the latest version of Illustrator (29.5.1) on the latest version of MacOS (15.5). | have also been having similar (although not as often) crashes in InDesign (again, latest version 20.3.1). Meanwhile, I see stories that you are about to increase the subscription prices for access to generative Al tools, while the stability of your software--the basic usability is in question. Not acceptable.

Flatten Transparency color change
Illustrator 2024 29.4 (64-bit) Windows 11 Pro, Intel(R) Core(TM) Ultra 7 165H 3.80 GHz, 32 GB Ram
When using the "flatten transparency" or "rasterize" options, there is a single line of text that keeps changing color. See screen shots attached. This happens regardless of what settings I select. I need the color of the text to be maintained through the operation.
