1. alt+gr typing pass through

   So, after spending an hour googling through different people having language / character issues with alt+gr on windows in Illustrator, I think I have identified what is happening (see screenshot)

   Win10 can do mixed display language / keyboard layout combinations that most Adobe products will handle just fine, but Illustrator seems to set keyboard language based on general language set, not on keyboard language set.

   So, if I type my normal alt gr+q for @ symbol or alt gr+e for € symbol on a german layout while using english language with german keyboard, it does not pass through as altgr+e but instead interprets it as alt+ctrl+e (export for screens) even when I'm inside the text tool.

   When I use german language and keyboard instead of english with german keyboard, it correctly uses the symbols on alt gr and "export for screens" on alt+ctrl+e.

   This has apparently been an issue since 2017, but only affects people using mixed settings with keyboard layout different from general language.

   Quick fix is making a language/kb profile in win10 and using that for illustrator, then switch back for indesign photoshop or whatever else you use. It's dirty but it's a better workaround then copy+pasting every fifth character when writing non english text.

2. Unable to activate fonts

   I am unable to activate new fonts using the find more feature in AI. When I attempt to activate a font, it attempts to activate but does not complete. However, the font is indicated as active on fonts.adobe.com, yet still not available in AI.

3. Textframe bugs out, and won't change color. Had to make new text boxes

   Found a bug where a specific text box will NOT ovewrite the color of the text. I tried deleting paragraph styles, making new paragraph styles with different color, character styles and eyedropper tool. I can change weight, italics etc but the color would NOT change, despite the changes appearing in the appearance panels and other areas. Fixed by making new text boxes and moving the copy to those, but an annoying bug for sure.

   I am happy to share that we have fixed this bug in our latest release – 25.2.3 which is available worldwide now.

   Going forward, our goal is to fix as many top User-Voice bugs as possible and as frequently as possible. Given the nature of the fixes, some of the bugs will take a longer time to fix, but we are on it.

   You can update to the latest release using Creative Cloud desktop App: https://helpx.adobe.com/in/creative-cloud/help/creative-cloud-updates.html

   Thank you for all the feedback. Keep it coming!

5. type tool is fundamentally broken.

   Why did you f up the type tool?? It, like almost everything else in Illustrator, doesn't work as good as it did a few versions back. I don't mind you making changes, but when it starts to impede productivity, it's a problem. I hate this program now. HATE. It's a buggy, aggravating, and just does not work seamlessly as it once did.

   With the type tool, I have issues placing the cursor in the type. if I use the hand tool in conjunction with the type tool, it overrides the hand tool and starts adding spaces. Neve been a problem until a couple of months ago.Those are my main complaints at the moment, but the entire way illustrator handles type...with the type menu and how its organized, with how the program handles outside (non-adobe...or even older adobe fonts) type, with the atrocious ux and organization of the adobe type site. How it doesn't automatically activate type... Its blatantly obvious that the people making decisions about Illustrator do not use it. Please start focusing on your user's experience and talking to, and working with, designers. How are ya'll missing so badly with this once amazing program????? Please, please make this better

6. Apple Emoji glyphs now crop at the bottom when rasterising + viewing - after Big Sur update

   I have updated to Big Sur. 2018 MacBook Pro. The Apple Emoji glyphs updated. Now, they are cropped about 3-5px on the bottom. Baseline shift doesn't help, rasterising doesn't help, changing the size of the type doesn't help. The emoji are permanently cropped now in both 2019 and 2020 AI versions, as well as in Photoshop. This is both when viewing the letterform, and when rasterising or outlining it. Please help! <3 I am trying to finish a job that looked great before Big Sur. Can't find anything on line.

7. When copying text in Arabic or Hebrew, Illustrator messes up the characters.

   Somehow the text gets flipped into Jibberish. Even when Arabic fonts are used such as Adobe Arabic. This causes the world to be filled with jibberish Hewbrew and Arabic.

8. Variable Font bug: "wiggling" top of "U"

   1. Download and unzip https://www.dropbox.com/s/3b6k0izkm5ma3dy/200719-AdobeVFBug.zip?dl=1

   2. Install the font from font/DaikonVF-mini.ttf

   3. Run Illustrator 24.2.1

   4. Type "AU" and choose the Daikon VF font

   5. In the property bar, click the Variable Font button and move the weight slider between the extreme locations. Observe how the top of "U" "wiggles" (jumps up and down). This is shown in videos/DaikonVF-Illustrator-24.2.1,.mp4

   6. The same problem occurs in InDesign 15.1.1

   7. The same problem occurs in DTL OTmaster 7.9 and in FontView 2019 (an open source app built from https://github.com/googlefonts/fontview ) — both apps use older versions of the FreeType library.

   8. The problem no longer occurs in FontView 2020 (which I’ve rebuilt with newest FreeType). I’m including both the 2019 and 2020 version of FontView in the ZIP.

   9. The problem also does not occur in Chrome 83 (which I think uses FreeType for VF), nor it occurs in Safari 13.1.2. Videos are included in the "video" folder.

   So it seems that it’s a bug in FreeType which was fixed by the FreeType developers. If Illustrator and InDesign use FreeType for VF, then Adobe should update FreeType to the newest version

   1. Download and unzip https://www.dropbox.com/s/3b6k0izkm5ma3dy/200719-AdobeVFBug.zip?dl=1

10. Type on path side brackets shrink after the object gets resized, until moved

    With a large text placed on a curve, every time you move any bracket they become very small. If you move the text everything goes back to normal until you touch the anchors again.

13. Text path vanishes when moving it with selection tools (black or white arrows)

    Since updating to version 24.1.2 from Adobe Illustrator 2019, whenever I move text objects using any of the selection arrows, the highlighted path disappears during moving and only reappears when I stop moving the text object. This is frustrating as I can't see the baseline or centre point of the text object while trying to align it to something else. This never happened before I updated Illustrator. My OS is macOS Mojave 10.14.6, Illustrator version 24.1.2.

16. Black versions of color fonts are no longer accessible

    EmojiOne font B&W fallback version is no longer accessible in current versions of Illustrator. This is a crying shame! I am forced to stay with AI CC2015 because I need access to the black and white version of this font. Why would Adobe take away a perfectly useful variation of a font because it is a "color" font????

18. Character styles do not allow for optical alignments and kerning

    Paragraph style applied to text area does not allow for optical margin alignment.

    Not sure why this is happening but one paragraph style will let me kern punctuation outside of the box, and then another one will not. Instead, the character styles flicker around as I kern and will not change.

    Converting the paragraph style to another one fixes this issue - but reappears when I apply the intended style.

    Mac OSX Catalina.

    Shown - top: Un-kernable
    Bottom: kernable

    Not sure where it went, but in the Paragraph tool, the "Space After Paragraph" feature is simply gone. I've rebooted the program and its still missing. Need this basic standard feature back ASAP.
