1. Justification doesn't work right

   In a block of justified text, when you fine tune the justification settings to spread the letters more evenly and avoid white gaps, the justification gets broken.
   (In Indesign the same procedure works perfectly.)

   On my screenshot you see the default setting on the left, and on the right with the letter and glyph spacing set to slightly decreased minimum and slightly increased maximum values – and the justification is gone…

2. Unable to skew individual words/letters in type

   In previous versions of illustrator, you were able to skew individual words/letters from the character menu. That option has been replaced by an option to rotate.

   Distorting highlighted text distorts the whole box of type. The font I'm working with does not have and italics and I need this option to italicize specific words.

   I am using 23.0.6 on a mac with OS Mojave 10.14.6.

   I'm attaching screenshots of this feature in InDesign so you can see what this used to look like in illustrator, as well as a screenshot of the new character panel in illustrator where it's missing. I've also included a screenshot from InDesign that shows what I'm trying to do.

3. GPU Issue in Touch Mode on Surface Pro (2017)

   Hello,
   I have been having a repeated issue with Illustrator leaving checkerboard artifacts onscreen when drawing in Touch Mode on my Surface Pro. After drawing for a while, Illustrator will crash. I've included a clip displaying the artifacts I'm talking about.

   A related issue happens at random when drawing, where the outline will display in red while I'm drawing it, then the line won't actually get drawn. Sometimes when selecting or scaling objects they will similarly display the scale happening, but then nothing actually happens. Usually Illustrator crashes after that.

   Request to Contact Support  ·  Ashutosh Chaturvedi responded

   From the looks of it it seems to be crashing with GPU. Here is what I can suggest
   1. TEST: Disable GPU from preference panel and then create a anew document to see if it still crashes
   2. FIX: Update GPU driver – each manufacturer will have a different way to get and install drivers. some help here: https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/kb/illustrator-gpu-performance-driver-update.html

   3. IF NOTHING WORKS: Please get in touch with us at any of the other support channels – https://helpx.adobe.com/support.html . Since this is not a generic issue that we can reproduce at our end, we will need someone to look into your machine to figure out what is going on here.

10. Move objects always moves downwards in y direction, behaves fine in x

    Selecting an object and hitting ENTER brings up the 'Move' dialog and, for a while now, negative values moved things up and positive values moved things down the y axis. Fair enough, we all got used to it. As of today, things behave differently and everything is always moved up, unless I adjust the angle in the two entry fields below. Please see attached GIF.

11. Changing values in Move dialog immediately applies them

    There appears to be another bug crept into the latest version of Illustrator when selecting an object and using the Object > Transform > Move dialogue.

    When you change values it commits those values rather than previews them, even if you cancel the operation. Ie. if you type 100mm into the x-coordinate box then change it to 150mm it will move your object 100mm then a further 150mm (250mm in total) rather than honouring the last value and only moving it 150mm.

    Illustrator is becoming all but unusable of late.

12. insanely-bloated file size with placed images

    Placing a 4.2 mb JPEG in Illustrator document (with little or no text or vector art) results in a file size of over 40 mb. Adobe dismisses this as "expected behavior" and closes the case with no effort to fix an obvious problem.
    An Illustrator document with 47 mb of placed JPEGs and nominal text and vector art yields a 513+ mb document! An 18-page (1-side print) PDF produced from this document was 523 mb. WAY too big to send via e-mail or FTP, the client had to come to my office with a thumb drive and download it from my iMac.
    While I can understand a few mb of bloated coding in the Illustrator or PDF formatting, perhaps a 50 or even 80 mb file, half a gigabyte is f*cking inexcusable.

13. Swatches not naming properly vs document color mode

    I create my document in CMYK but when I open my swatches the first time (I have done no copying or pasting into the document or anything to mess with any color settings), they are CMYK blends with RGB names. Why is it doing that and what can I do to fix it?

14. SVG: RTL text is shifted

    We have tried to import correct SVG with RTL text. The SVG looks ok in browsers(Chrome, FireFox). If we just open the SVG file in Adobe Illustrator the RTL text will be shifted to the right. As we see Adobe Illustrator pre-processes SVG but the result looks incorrectly. Are there some specifics of RTL processing that we can take into account? We aspect to see the same SVG rendering as in browsers. (see attached file : as SVG files can not be attached, I've replaced .svg with .txt)

    Hello Maksim,

    Thanks a lot for bringing this issue to our attention. We can confirm the issue and added it to our backlog.

    Greetings,
    Dirk

15. Installed Fonts Not Being Updated

    I've tried the forums but this issue is still not solved & I've not been able to find a solution anywhere. Allow me to clarify.

    This issue affects both the font menus and fonts in the entire document & actually across unlimited documents after unlimited numbers of app restarts and system restarts. I assume this can be fixed because I have proper behavior on one machine & improper behavior on another.

    I build fonts. I use Illustrator as one of many apps in which I test the fonts as part of my workflow. The problem I am having is that fonts DO NOT UPDATE in Illustrator after I have deleted the old, installed copy & installed an updated version. If I change some characters or kerning or font names or any other characteristic of the font & reinstall Illustrator still shows me the old version of the font. The changes are not reflected in the doc or in the menus no matter how many times I start a whole new doc or restart Illustrator or restart the system.

    Again I want to make clear that on my other machine which has the exact same OS & the exact same version of Illustrator the behavior is totally different. That machine behaves the same as every other version of Illustrator I've had on every machine since the 90's. If I update an installed font file the changes show up immediately in any open doc with no need to quit, make a new doc or restart. Illustrator picks up the new copy of the font immediately with no action on my part.

    I can not get my new machine to behave this way after trying many, many fixes & investing many hours of research into the issue. I would appreciate some help from an Adobe expert please.

16. Pasting a hexadecimal color code into the Fill or Stroke under properties > appearance occasionally causes Illustrator to freeze up

    1. MacOS 10.14.5 (18F132)
    2. Select an object (for example, a rectangle), in the properties panel, under the appearance heading, select either fill or stroke, and paste a hex code into the textbox at the bottom of the popup panel. Occasionally, this results in Illustrator freezing, and can only be fixed by force-quitting.
    3. It not to freeze
    4. It freezes
    5. Video attached showing the behaviour once it is frozen

17. ExtendscriptToolkit is 32bit-only, OSX Catalina is 64bit-only

    I use a script I wrote for an important business function. For the last couple OSX upgrades, it has been warning me that ExtendscriptToolkit is not compatible with future versions of the OS. Specifically, OSX Catalina, which has been seeded to developers, will only support 64bit applications, and ExtendscriptToolkit is a 32bit application. Is that going to be addressed before the OS is released?

18. Document window opens as narrow strip, will not expand to full width

    Every document. Every time.

    Multiple documents stack inside this narrow window.
    Documents set to open in tabs.
    Same regardless if Illustrator is opened first or opens with document.
    Documents on external drives and local machine.

    Illustrator 23.0.4
    2016 MacBook Pro 15-inch 16 GB RAM
    Mid-2015 MacBook Pro Retina 15-inch 16 GB RAM
    MacOS Mojave (current)
    Mac Illustrator CC 2019 (current)
    Application Frame turned off. (with frame turned on things work differently... fine)
    Both built in display and 32-inch 4k.

    Only started this when I upgraded to CC 2019.

    Clicking here expands the window too it's original, correct size.

    Reset preferences.
    Uninstalled Illustrator and files. Caches, etc.
    Reset workspaces. Changed Workspaces.
    Happens on both of my machines. I do not run any third-party plugins or extensions, so all is basically stock across machines.

20. Illustriator does not always open files (Windows 10)

    Problem:
    Illustriator does not always open files (Windows 10)

    Don't works:
    Illustrator is not open > Windows Explorer > right click on file > open file with > Illustrator opens first file, each further file is opened only with: "Drag and Drop", with open menu from Illustrator or when closing Illustrator

    Always works:
    Open Illustrator (empty) > Windows Explorer > right click on File > Open File with > Illustrator opens first file and each subsequent file

    Is this a bug or what do I have to do to make "Open file with" always work in Windows Explorer?
