duplicates all the placed images
Every time I open a document with images I get an alert about images not found, without having moved them since I saved the document and when I locate them again, when the document is opened all the duplicate images appear, and it places them in the center of the document . I attach a screenshot of how duplicate images appear to me

Illustrator (still) cannot read TIF files.
When can we remedy this? I cannot open or place a TIF file in Illustrator 27.6.1. The error message is the file is an unknown format and can't be opened.
There are reports on this page still open from 2021. When will this be fixed?
I have several TIFs from a museum to lay out for printing and I'm having to individually bring them all in to photoshop and export them as a different format.

EPS color bug
Adobe illustrator keeps changing the colors of .eps images that I link. Both profiles are set to RGB so that should not be a problem.

rotating and croping causing jagged banding
Rotating and croping an image leads to an odd banding pattern appearing through the image. This does not occur when clipping using a clipping mask or when only cropped or only rotated.

照片進行影像描圖失敗Photo image tracing failed
Image tracing with the same PNG file is low-fidelity. At different times, the display results have different drawing effects, and become a failed image drawing. Please correct or explain the reason

Linked PDFs resizing when pasted
If you open a multi page PDF in Illustrator and then copy and paste it either into the same document or a different one, it changes from cropping to the bounding box to whatever was specified last in the File/Place options dialogue box and scales up or down to fit the same space.
If I place a file (any file) and specify cropping to Bounding Box, and then open the same multi page PDF as before, the problem does not occur. It appears that by opening a multi page PDF it crops to bounding box but by copying and pasting…

1 bit TIFF files still importing inverted after all these years
It's been a while since I needed to import a 1 bit tiff file into Illustrator (maybe two years?) And I was so surprised to see this problem still occurs even in version 24.0.3
Does anyone know a fix bedside inverting it in Photoshop before importing it?
This is a no go, because when people open the file who aren't experiencing the the problem, it's wrong again.3 votes -

Cannot update links from links panel
Cannot update links by clicking "update" icon in links panel or by going to panel menu > Update Links. They do nothing. I have to wait until AI shows the "Some links need updating..." alert and then confirm to update or I have to close/open the file.
What the heck happened in the latest update(s)? Feels like all of the panels are super busted.

Link option in inactive in the Place dialog, even after a name is pasted from clipboard
I am working on a huge document with hundreds of linked images. All files are now changed due to company policy. So I need to relink a bunch of files. This is not possible automatically so I believed I found a solution. But the shortcut was devastating. If i choose say 10 links which have the same name, lets call them Image1 but now the name should be Image01. Same image is in other words used in several places in same file. I marked the links and chose Relink. So far so good.
I choose the new name Image01.ai and…3 votes -
.TIF are distorted when placed and rotated in AI
There is a bug in Illustrator 22.0.1 that distorts placed .tif files that are rotated. It is not just a display issue, but actually distorts the placed .tif image when I export my art to all file types. Attached is a before and after screen shot of what I am experiencing, using a bitmap .tif as a texture placed over my vector art. The two .tif files are the same, one just rotated 90°.

Link location mistaken for other document's link location
When opening a specific document, links are found missing.
When I open the document nevertheless, click on a link and check the location, the path it shows is one that was used in a previously opened, unrelated document.
When my colleague opens the document on her computer, everything is fine.

Images embedded disappear after reopening the file 2025
This problem has been occurring for a few weeks: when I reopen a file containing embedded images, they disappear, turn white, or turn the original image color.
In 15 years of using ILLUSTRATOR, this has never happened, and it's truly annoying. Some files contain more than 50 images, and if a small one disappears, it's unmanageable.
The strange thing is that it doesn't happen with all files; it's random.
I'm working with Illustrator 30.0, but the same thing happened with 29.8.3.
Looking through various forums, you may already be aware of this problem.
Please fix it, as we pay a…

Documents preview not updated properly in Indesign
When I save an Illustrator file, import it into Indesign, then make changes to the file, save it again and update the link in Indesign, some parts are not updated in the preview (see attached image). This doesn't happen every time, seemingly at random.
I have resolved this by first saving as an older version and then again as latest version, but that's not a real solution.
Somebody told me to uncheck 'Save in background' in settings, this also solved the problem but again, is not a real solution.I have this problem simultaneously with the (already known) problem where…

画像配置の際のフォルダ When placing or relinking images, Illustrator no longer remembers the folder location
画像配置の際、複数回使っている同じ画像でもフォルダを記憶してくれず、大変に困っております。
以前のように、一度フォルダを指定したら同じ場所を自動的に参照してくれる仕様に戻していただきたいです。
制作作業において非常に不便で、効率に大きく影響しています。When placing or relinking images, Illustrator no longer remembers the folder location — even for multiple links that use the same image.
It would be very helpful if Illustrator could once again remember the previously used folder, as it did before.
This current behavior is extremely inconvenient and has a serious impact on workflow efficiency.2 votes
