  2. Text stroke disappears

    Illustrator 28.6 on Mac OS Ventura 13.5.2

    I'm not sure whether it's an Illustrator or Photoshop problem.

    I have text with white strokes in the background, but when I open the .ai in Photoshop (300dpi) , the white outlines have all disappeared.

    They don't appear in the Art View (preview) of the .ai either. Nor if I open the file with Preview or Adobe Acrobat. That's why I'm thinking it's an Illustrator issue. Zooming in with Acrobat actually makes it crash…

    I have attached screenshots of my Illustrator artboard (you can see the white strokes), of the JPG I generated…

  4. Font characters get replaced with weird symbols in Illustrator 2024

    I've noticed that I'm unable to change my variable fonts in Illustrator after updating to 2024. In my case, the characters are replaced with weird symbols as soon as I alter any of the variable axis.

  7. Copy paste breaks up text frames

    When I copy paste text frames in Illustrator 28.5 they end up broken up in individual letters. This is due to interference with the clipboard manager of LaunchBar and is a regression — the previous version of Illustrator did not have this issue but I've experienced problems with LaunchBar and Adobe applications in the past.

    Adobe Illustrator 28.5
    LaunchBar 6.18.5

  8. 文字パネルで合成フォントを選択すると、テキストの操作ができなくなる

    文字パネルで合成フォントを選択する操作を行うと、
    ・テキスト自体が表示されなくなる
    ・表示されていても他のフォントに変更できなくなる
    ・文字化けのような状態になることもある
    ・このバグが発生しているテキストオブジェクトをコピーすると「オブジェクトをコピーできません。メモリが足りません。ID:-108」というエラーが発生する
    ・まれにバグが発生しないこともあり、再現性や規則性は不明
    などの不具合が発生します。

    いずれにせよ、この不具合が起きるとテキストツールでの操作やドキュメントの保存が一切できなくなってしまいます。
    合成フォントではない通常のフォントを使用していても、まれに「同じ名前の合成フォント「○○」が既に存在します。」というエラーが発生し、その後Illustratorはフリーズします。

    Illustrator 28.5, 28.4.1, 27.9.4でこのバグを確認しています。
    OSバージョンはWindows 11 Pro 10.0.22631 ビルド 22631です。

    ・環境設定の削除やアプリケーションの再インストール
    ・グラフィックドライバの更新
    ・PCの再起動
    ・SFCやDISMなどのOS修復
    ・FNTCACHE.DATの削除
    などの操作も行いましたが解決しませんでした。

    不具合の様子をキャプチャしたものを添付しております。
    解決策をご存じの方はいらっしゃいますでしょうか。よろしくお願いいたします。

  9. Character line height has to be entered twice before it changes

    If I ever want to manually enter a specific line height for text, the first time I type it in and hit "enter" it automatically reverts back to auto (or whatever it was previously). I have to open the character panel again and do it a second time for it to actually change. This has been the case for awhile and makes no sense!

  10. フォントのアウトラインを取ると中が塗りつぶされる

    あるフォント(DFP中太丸ゴシック)の「管理部 部長」をアウトライン化すると「部」の文字の一部が塗りつぶされる。添付参照。
    他のフォントや文字では発生しない(自分が調べた限りです)
    現象はwindows版のイラレでのみおこり、同じファイルをMacのイラレで開いても起こりません。

    win10/イラストレーター28.5

    ※イラレCS2でも起きませんでした

  11. Text gets launched into the ether

    When moving text in any sort of way (keyboard, click and drag), it would completely disappear from the artboard and launch itself either to the top left corner of the boundary or way outside to the light grey area. Screenshot of the latter is attached. The text outline/boundary box shows up where it is supposed to be on the artboard, but it is untouchable and out of bounds.

    Copying and pasting the text seems to have temporality fixed the issue. It's not the biggest problem, just kind of funny and a little annoying after the 5th time.

  13. Letter "N" symbol instead of hyphen when hyphenation is activated

    Hi,

    We have a problem with a certain file. After first auto activation of a font, the hyphen character is replaced by a "N". When we then close the file, not Illustrator, so fonts stay active and simply reopen the file, the hyphen is displayed correctly.

    We use Connect Fonts for fontmanagement, but apparently the problem is on the Adobe side (according to Extensis)

    OS: Windows 11 and MacOS Sonoma (latest version)
    Most recent version of Illustrator

  15. All Text is not visible and Can't move the objects. The requested transformation would make some objects too large issue.

    I opened a project I was working on last week this morning and encountered this issue. All my text is not visible and I cannot move any text boxes without an error message coming up stating: Can't move the objects. The requested transformation would make some objects too large. I tried all the other solutions listed that could be found on Google and this forum. It happens for every project I open. I attached images of what I see and the error message.

  16. Pasting text from Microsoft Office does not work on Mac but works on PC

    This has been an issue for quite a while on many different machines Mac OS version, and Illustrator versions over the years and is consistent. When copying text or vectors containing text like graphs from a Microsoft Office app like Excel, PowerPoint, or Word. Then pasting into Illustrator, the graphics and vectors are correct but the text is illegible in that it is corrupted in some way so it looks like symbols.

    I know it works on Windows as this is my usual workaround in the past, but my main machine is a Mac and this is a very annoying…

  17. Illustrator Freezes when trying to scroll fonts

    When text is highlighted, and I go to change the font and use the scroll bar on the right to scroll down, the program freezes indefinitely.

    No custom fonts installed.

    2021 Macbook Pro M1 running Sonoma MacOs 14.3.1 (23D60). No other applications open.

    I used the MacOs Screenshot App to record the bug in action. However - when recording my screen, the bug does NOT happen. I tested this multiple times. Talk about the observer effect...

    In order to capture the bug, I used my phone to record. I tested this multiple times. I'm attaching both videos below.

  20. Turning off hinting does nothing.

    I have a font with poor hinting where the alignment of several letters isn't working properly. When I select 'none' from the drop-down menu for hinting in the character panel, nothing changes. In previous versions of Illustrator, this is used to treat the letters as standard vectors.
