missing fonts logged in error
When I open a document with missing fonts, the 'resolve missing fonts' screen keeps telling me I'm currently logged out of Creative Cloud, and to go to "help/log in". This despite the fact I'm logged in, and going to "help" shows my account name and logged in status..

Variable Font not working properly
Hello, I am a type designer and am working on a variable script font. The variable font file work fine everywhere else except in Adobe products.
It appears the sidebearings aren't adjusting with the changes in width. Very odd. You can see whats happening in the first file. The second is on the Axis Praxis website.
I've spoken with Glyphs App developers and they said it's a glitch with Illustrator, so I wanted to bring it to your attention.

Fonts Syncing
I just upgraded my computer to the Macbook Pro 2021 M1. I downloaded the latest versions of Adobe and noticed none of my fonts will sync. I've tried posted troubleshooting methods and none have worked (closing and restarting apps, reinstalled apps, multiple computer resets, unsyncing and resyncing manually, etc). Any time I open an Illustrator project with previously used fonts that aren't native to the app, it prompts me to sync but the load wheel just keeps spinning and will never finish.
I'm at a loss. Any ideas?

Selection of multiple text objects - changing font not working
We can no longer change the font of multiple text objects at once.
When multiple text objects are selected, Ai thinks this is a 'mixed selection' and does not come up with the typeface selector.

Character Panel doesn´t change fonts name
AI version: last one, 22.0.1
I typed the same words in 10 different fonts (all Google fonts), and they all look different of course, but when selecting them a second time, the font shown in the Character panel was always the same. I closed Illustrator and then it worked for few minutes, then the same issue appeared again.4 votesPlease accept my sincere apology for the inconvenience.

Adobe Illustrator 22.0 64-bit
Windows 10 1703 (build 15063.632) 64-bitCharacters refuses to render, be it in an area frame or a single line. Can't work like that, returning to CC 2017 right now.
I had a full page of text yesterday and now I have just the backgrounds. The text frame can be selected but the characters panel doesn't show any information regarding type weight or anything. Also, the Find Font dialog is broken.4 votesPlease get in touch with us at any of the other support channels – https://helpx.adobe.com/support.html .

Spell Check doesn't understand what "Uncapitalized Start of Sentence" means.
While running spell check, Illustrator doesn't seem to understand that a comma is not the end of a sentence, or that the word following the comma is the start of a new sentence. See attached screen shots.
(running the version of Illustrator on Mac running OS 10.13.6)

zoom
When snap to grid is on, it will only create new text. It won't select existing text for editing - probably because it isn't on the grid. This never used to happen before the latest update.

Rendered text doesn't match its edges or its true state visible in Outline mode
Text content differs from edges and "path preview" (Cmd Y) to print preview (or GPU).
In my example, the word "Optipro" appears at the GPU Preview and disappears when I use the Cmd Y preview.2 votesI could not understand much looking at the screenshots.

Restart every 1 min to fix a bug – Illustrator Font Panel Bug
Adobe Illustrator always show the default font Myriad Pro no matter which typeface/font you are using. Also Fonts and weights that you are using disappear from the dropdown of the font.
The only way of fixing it is to restart illustrator every 1 min.

Font Suggestion/Preview Font NOT Working on MAC's
I select a text box on my art board and go to the character palette to change the font. I was able to use the arrow keys up and down and see the font change on the art board. This feature no longer works with CC2018 Mac.
Or I was able to start typing a font name into the Character Palette and suggestions would pop up. This feature no longer works with CC2018 Mac.
I find this very irritating and a difficult way to work. This only happens on my MAC, my PC still works.
Can anyone help me with…
