  3. Export Assets (Elements) as SVG results in additional content in exported file

    When exporting assets as SVG using Asset Export panel, additional content is added — content that I exported weeks ago. When using "artboards" to export everything is correct.
    Horror!

  5. Area type vertical alignment and auto size doesn't work

    I've been using Illustrator on my Intel Mac under Sequoia and last versions lets you choose center, bottom or justify alignment but it always acts as top and the auto size option is disabled.

  7. Launching Ai without the application frame places the document window behind the tool panel

    When I startup Illustrator without the application frame it often misplaces my document so it's tucked behind the tools panel — sometime it is where it is supposed to be.

  8. TIF files from Adobe Libraries are not supported

    TIF files from Adobe Libraries are not supported in Illustrator. This has been a problem for at least a year now that needs to be fixed. Unfortunately, we have had to create jpeg files and relink the graphics for all of our clients. I am unsure why that file type would not be supported.

  9. Right-click menu appears in wrong location

    Right-click menu appears far below the cursor. If clicked low enough on my secondary monitor, the menu appears on my MacBook Pro's internal monitor (arranged below my external display). Photos showing this behavior attached. Has been happening for quite a while now and driving me crazy, figured it would've been been fixed by now.

  10. Text editing issues in regular and large canvases

    1. Set the regional text to "align both ends, align the last line to the left", which aligns normally in a regular canvas, but cannot align on the right side in a large canvas.
    2. For the text in the same area, adjust the "Scale Spacing" text in the big canvas to overflow on the right. Display normally in regular canvas.

  11. Character styles seem sticky, sluggish

    The character styles dialog seems very sluggish, sometimes being unresponsive for a minute. So far no crashes, but a major pain having to wait for the styles to register changes....

  12. 3D Materials Panel Causes Much Longer Document Load Times

    Regarding the 3D Effects Panel in Illustrator, it seems to take nearly 20 seconds when launching a new document if in the previous session the Panel was active. If the 3D Effects panel was not active, then the document loads much faster. It would be great to have Illustrator handle the load time better.

    I'm using Illustrator version 29.2.1 in MacOS WITH Sequoia 15.2 on an M4 Pro 48GB RAM.

  14. Separations preview is wrong for dynamic symbol with spot color

    When a dynamic symbol gets a spot color applied to one of its fills, then the separations preview does not show the correct separation.

  15. Arabic text is not searchable in a PDF saved from Illustrator

    Arabic text is not searchable in a PDF saved from Illustrator.
    In Adobe Illustrator v. 29.2.1 (Middle Eastern version) on Mac OS 15.2, I created a document with A4 size page, typed any number of words, lines in Arabic Language.

    I choose to save the file as PDF. Then in Acrobat, when I search for any Arabic word, I get the message "No matches were found".
    The same text placed into Adobe InDesign or Microsoft Word, then Export the page as PDF. Those PDFs are fully searchable.

    I believe that PDFs out of Adobe Illustrator are the only ones with…

  16. Don’t display Touch workspace styled handles for Free Transform when Ai doesn’t use it

    If a computer has an access to a touch screen device, Ai offers users to switch the interface into the dedicated Touch Workspace: https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/using/illustrator-touch-workspace.html

    Normally this access won’t affect using Ai in the default mode, except for the way Free Transform tool’s controls.
    These start to look ugly: large contoured circles with small white square padding inside, smudged icons (when viewed at 100 UI scale), giant hint arrows...

    Maybe these work for some better, I can imagine this.
    But why do I see these when not in Touch mode?
    How can I force Ai to use normal ones without removing…

  17. Incorrect Blend Mode Appearance When Opening Illustrator 2024 File in Illustrator 2025

    I’ve encountered a potential bug in Illustrator. When I open a file created in Illustrator 2024 (version 28.7.4) in Illustrator 2025 (version 29.2.1), the appearance applied to the text does not display correctly.

    For example, in the attached file, the text at the bottom changes to a completely different design when opened in Illustrator 2025, which is causing a significant problem.

  18. Incorrect Zoom Label when Disabling "Display Print Size At 100% Zoom" Preference

    With an artboard zoomed to 100%, and after disabling the preference "Display Print Size At 100% Zoom" preference, the zoom level is incorrectly reading "52.55%" until I switch Pixel Preview on and off again. See the attached screen recording for the exact steps to recreate this issue with a 1080px x 1080px artboard.

  19. Wireframe Conversion of 3D objects distorts the paths, straightens curves

    Converting 3D text to a wireframe often doesn’t show the curves of fonts correctly. During the process, these curves often turn into straight lines or rough shapes, losing the original look of the font or the 3D preview.

  20. Changes made in acrobat PDF not reflected when opening in Illustrator

    Sometimes, text and graphical changes made using Adobe Acrobat on PDF's are not reflected when opened in Illustrator. For example, a client sent a PDF file of a banner with a phone number on it, when viewed in Acrobat the number is different than the one in Illustrator because the client made the edit in Acrobat. It would sure be a great feature if a file would open properly in across different adobe products.
