1. Restore Sequential Artboard Numbering for Exported Files

   Dear Adobe Illustrator Development Team,

   I would like to provide feedback regarding the recent change to artboard export naming behavior in Illustrator.

   In previous versions, exporting multiple artboards could automatically preserve the artboard order by adding sequential numbers to the exported filenames, such as:

   File-01.png
   
   File-02.png
   
   File-03.png

   This was a simple and efficient workflow because the artboard order already exists within the document.

   With the current behavior, exported files increasingly depend on individual artboard names. As a result, users may need to rename artboards simply to maintain a clear sequential file order.

   For designers working with catalogs, calendars, presentation boards, packaging variations, social media sets, or documents containing dozens of artboards, this adds an unnecessary management step and increases the chance of naming errors.

   The artboard index and the artboard name serve different purposes. A designer may need descriptive artboard names inside Illustrator while still wanting exported files to follow the document sequence.

   I strongly suggest restoring the previous behavior as an option, or adding an export naming preference such as:

   • Use artboard number
   • Use artboard name
   • Use filename + artboard number
   • Use filename + artboard name

   Ideally, users should also be able to choose the number format, for example 01, 02, 03 instead of 1, 2, 3.

   This would preserve existing professional workflows while still supporting the newer naming system.

   Please consider adding this flexibility back to Illustrator rather than requiring users to rename artboards or rely on scripts for something that was previously handled automatically.

   Thank you for considering this feedback.

3. Transform dimensions - Constraint applied even though it is disabled

   When transforming the dimensions in the 'Transform' window, the constraint option (chain icon) is applied even though it is disabled. One measurement - width or height - cannot be altered without the other following along.
   I have been able to fix this by closing the application completely, but this is happening repeatedly.

4. Adobe Illustrator freezes and crashes when using the Dimension Tool

   I’m experiencing an issue with the Dimension Tool in Adobe Illustrator. Whenever I activate the tool and try to use it, the entire program freezes and then crashes. This is interrupting my work.

   I’ve attached a screenshot showing the tool and its options. Could you please help me identify the cause and resolve the issue?

   Thank you.

6. Blend objects based on Paintbrush strokes render incorrectly and Illustrator crashes

   The document worked correctly approximately two weeks ago.

   The artwork contains many lines created with the Paintbrush Tool. Some of these brush strokes are used as source objects for Blend objects.

   Current problem:
   All Blend objects that are based on Paintbrush strokes are rendered incorrectly. Colors and/or stroke appearances change significantly after opening the file.

   Normal objects and non-blended artwork appear correctly.

   The document was originally displayed and saved correctly approximately two weeks ago. The problem appeared after recent Illustrator updates.

   Tests performed:

   • Illustrator 30.8.1:
     Blend objects based on Paintbrush strokes render incorrectly.
     "Save As" becomes extremely slow / Illustrator becomes unresponsive.

   • Illustrator 30.8:
     Same incorrect rendering of the Blend objects.

   • Illustrator 30.7:
     Illustrator crashes while working with/opening the document.

   • Illustrator 30.6:
     Illustrator also crashes with the document.

   Important observation:
   The problem specifically affects Blend objects whose source paths were created with the Paintbrush Tool.

   Other normal vector objects, colors and strokes remain largely correct.

   Expected result:
   The Blend objects should display exactly as they did when the document was originally created and saved.

   Actual result:
   Blend objects based on Paintbrush strokes are recalculated/rendered incorrectly, producing wrong colors and stroke appearances.

   In some Illustrator versions the document also causes Illustrator to crash.

   Impact / Severity:

   This is not only a visual rendering issue.

   The affected AI document is a production file and is currently no longer usable for normal work.

   All Blend objects based on Paintbrush strokes are displayed incorrectly, and attempts to continue working with or saving the document can result in Illustrator becoming unresponsive or crashing.

   The document worked correctly approximately two weeks ago and was saved without any known errors.

   At the moment I cannot reliably edit, save or continue working on this file without risking further damage to the document.

   This is therefore a production-blocking issue and potentially a data-integrity problem.

   I can provide:
   - screenshot of the correct appearance
   - screenshot of the incorrect appearance
   - crash reports
   - the original AI file if required

   Environment:
   Windows 11
   Adobe Illustrator 2026

7. Links Panel / Relink feature freezes and stops responding during batch production work

   When working on repetitive batch production tasks (such as updating multiple Amazon product listing variations where images are continuously relinked and embedded), the Links panel / Relink feature frequently breaks or stops responding entirely. Clicking the "Relink" button or using the context menu does nothing, effectively freezing that specific panel's functionality.

   Currently, the only workaround is to completely shut down Adobe Illustrator and reload multiple project files, which heavily disrupts high-volume production workflows and wastes significant work time.

8. AI files with 'Create PDF Compatible File' show missing artwork when opened in PDF viewers (Illustrator 2026, Windows 10)

   After updating to Illustrator 2026 for Windows, AI files saved with the "Create PDF Compatible File" option turn out to be incomplete sometimes when opened in any PDF viewer, with missing parts in both raster images and vector artwork. Saving the file several times often fixes the problem, but the only reliable workaround is to save the document as a PDF with the "Preserve Illustrator Editing Capabilities" option enabled, instead of saving it as an AI file.

   Windows 10 Pro 22H2, Illustrator 30.8.1

13. Keeps not showing parts of my artwork.

    I open a file, everything is fine, i start moving things around and suddenly parts of the artwork just disappear or they loose colour, when you move the cursor over it it shows that the shape is there but will not allow you to colour it move it or do anything with it. I thought it might have been a one-time thing, but it's happened for the past 3 days in a row on several different files.

15. 优化运行内存占用

    1. Adobe Illustrator 2026 (version 30.7) consumes excessive memory upon launch—just enabling it uses up to 900MB.
       
    2. A file with 80 artboards, all containing text, sized at 263mm wide by 359mm high, experiences lag when dragging 5 or 10 artboards; there is noticeable delay. After creating outlines for the text and clicking X to exit, the software crashes.
       
    3. Saving a document with 80 artboards as a PDF does not allow background saving.
       
    4. A file with 110 artboards, each 263mm wide by 359mm high and filled entirely with text, causes extremely high memory usage. Copying and pasting operations are sluggish. We request optimization on overall memory consumption, including per-software memory footprint, memory usage when creating a new artboard, memory usage for text-only artboards, and general performance improvements.

16. Artboard Names changes revert if names are tabbed between.

    When updating multiple artboard names via the Artboards Panel, pressing Tab advances to the next artboard name. However, if multiple artboard names are changed this way, and the changes are reflected in the panel, these changes are not reflected in the export artboards panel, and clicking in to edit any artboard name again causes them all to revert to their previous names.

19. Action shortcuts lost when saving, deleting existing, and adding back to action panel.

    MACOS Tahoe 26.5.2, Illustrator 30.6

    I deleted my personal action set from the actions panel, and when I re-imported them the (extensive) set of shortcuts were missing. No shortcuts were added. Using version history I re-added a saved set from a few days ago, and it only brought in some of the shortcuts that were saved with the set at the time. I frequently save/delete/add my actions because they change based upon the job at hand and I run out of F keys. I have never had an issue with lost shortcuts until today.
