  1. Illustrator最新版で A-OTF フォントが使用できない件について

    お世話になっております。

    現在、以下の環境で A-OTF フォントが Illustrator で使用できない 不具合が発生しております。

    環境

    macOS：15.6.1（Sequoia）

    Adobe Illustrator：最新版（28.x）

    Morisawa Fonts アプリ：最新版を使用

    フォント例：A-OTF ゴシックMB101 Pr5

    症状

    Illustrator のフォント一覧には A-OTF フォントが表示されるが、選択すると代替フォントに置き換わり使用できない。

    Photoshop など他の Adobe アプリ（Photoshop、InDesign）では同じフォントを正常に使用可能。

    Morisawa Fonts アプリ上では該当フォントはアクティブ化されている。

    実施済み対策

    Illustrator のアンインストール／クリーンインストール

    環境設定・キャッシュの削除

    Morisawa Fonts アプリの再インストール、ログイン／再アクティブ化

    macOS 再起動

    上記すべてを実施しても改善せず

    特記事項

    Illustratorを一つ古いバージョン（27.x）に戻したところ、問題なくフォントを使用できた。

    よって、最新版 Illustrator（28.x）と macOS 15.6.1 環境における A-OTF フォントの不具合である可能性が高いと考えられる。

    ご確認いただきたいこと

    Illustrator最新版と macOS 15.6.1 環境での A-OTF フォント非対応／不具合について既知の情報があるか

    修正版のリリース予定があるか

    回避策があればご教示いただきたい

  2. Export for Screens won’t export artboards as a single file

    When a document has multiple artboards and is exported as PDF using Export for Screens, although all artboards are selected and a Single File option is checked, it will still be exported as multiple files.

  3. モノクロになってしまう

    illustrator2025
    Windows11

    Adobeクラウドに保存していたものを開くと「プレビューを終了できません。指定した処理を実行できませんでした」というポップアップが出てしまい、保存していたものがモノクロになってしまって編集もできない。クラウドの一覧で見ると正常そう。

  5. Incorrect object size when exported to SVG - Illustrator v 28.4.1

    The latest Illustrator v28.4.1 generates slightly different SVG code compared to its precursors.
    Attached is the code generated by 28.3 and 28.4.1 of the same design.
    Then the latest version of the SVG file is loaded to my laser software (Glowforge) the design ends up being much smaller than it is supposed to be, for comparison a 12 cm square will only end up being 9 cm square. The issue disappeared once Illustrator was reversed to version 28.3 and files were re-opened and re-saved.

  6. Image Trace (Make and Expand) has changed default settings

    When following the Object>Image Trace>Make and Expand, the action used to just convert the image to a black and white cutout, but since the last update it's changed to "logo" preset like in the advanced settings. Now I have to enter the advanced settings every time to use the black and white option, rendering the menu option useless, and taking a few extra steps to get the result I want. Is there a way to change it back to the old settings? Or actually be able to choose what the default setting in the menu option is?

  7. Inconsistent colors across the Adobe apps, even when synced via Bridge

    With the new CC update, I can't calibrate colour across apps using Color Settings in Bridge. This started happening often on the previous release, but I was able to fix it by resetting this in Bridge. Now, it doesn't work. See attached – same Pantone colour (50% of Pantone Bridge 7500) in InDesign and Illustrator. The InDesign is accurate; Illustrator is not. Nothing I do seems to help. I may revert to older Bridge and Photoshop until you sort this out.

    The tool is still there, but he team decided to hide the Knife tool from the Basic toolbar, based on the usage statistics, aiming to reduce clutter for new users.

    You can still access it. There are two options:

    1. Go to Window > Toolbars and pick Advanced, to view the classic tool layout, including all plugin tools added.

    2. Press Edit Toolbar button at the bottom of your current toolbar (with three dots), find the Knife there (it’s the last one in the Modify section), and drag it into the panel in the slot you find fitting (be careful not to insert it into a tool-group by mistake, it’s a tight wiggle).

  9. Type on a path tool resizing causes crash

    I have the latest version of Illustrator CC 2020 v. 24.0.3. Unfortunately, everytime I try to resize a type on path, Illustrator crashes. I have restarted the app and system and that didn't help.

  11. Please fix "colour changing of vector elements between Illustrator and Photoshop

    If you Copy/Paste vector objects - saving it to a library - from Illustrator to Photoshop, there is a marginal colour change. That's pretty annoying and has to be fixed immediately, thx!

  12. Stop asking about switching to the Touch interface

    I have a laptop with a touch screen (that I never use, and never intend to use). Every time I open Illustrator, it tells me that it has detected that I am using a touch enabled screen and asks if I want to switch. I would be VERY appreciative if you could make this pop up with a "don't ask me again on this computer" checkbox as it is really annoying as it not always obvious that it has popped up and it makes the screen unresponsive.

  15. Pattern origin

    Why is the pattern anchored to the art board and not the item? I often create shapes and apply a pattern (lets say a plaid) and I adjust the alignment of the pattern so that it is equal on all sides. If I then copy the shape containing the pattern so that I can then offer the client a different color combination of the pattern, I now have to nudge the pattern of the new shape to align properly again! Because the pattern is anchored to the art board not the shape.

    This behavior can be toggled in Preferences > General > Transform Pattern Tiles.

    Once enabled, the pattern stays relative to the object it’s applied to, when you move or copy it between documents.

    It also makes it deform if you stretch, resize, rotate,  skew or transform the object, because it’s all a part of 'transformations' we can make.

  16. Selection tool, bounding box

    Square did not fill with the fill color I selected. The objects are all pixelated and not clear. Bounding boxes keep disappearing. Objects moving back to previous positions.

  17. Can't work on a server - crashing and not saving files

    I recently updated my OS to High Sierra V. 10.13.3 and have Illustrator CC18 22.0.1. I work on a server and at first, every time I tried to resave a file for the second time it would crash. Now all of a sudden I am able to save once and when I try to save the second time it says it can't and I have to save the file with a new name. It also keeps making .tmp files. If I work off of my server on my desktop this does not happen.

  19. Harmony Rules display all selected colors when recoloring artwork

    1. Mac Studio M1 Ultra 128GB, Tahoe 26.5.1
    2. Illustrator 30.7

    I want to premise this is likely a minor bug and doesn't really affect everything, but me+ others previously reported a color guide bug on 30.6 and there is a current bug with Recolor Artwork, so I assume this inconsistency might be helpful information.

    With a group of shapes selected (any amount), select Recolor Artwork with the Color Guide panel open.

    Once the Recolor Artwork menu opens, the Color Guide Harmony Rules panel is updated to contain every color within the selected artwork group.

    Rather than display the harmony group related…
