  1. Properties panel doesn’t detect the actual font and shows Myriad Pro by default

    When I select a word, the Properties panel doesn’t detect the actual font and shows Myriad Pro by default. None of the text settings respond or update. The program doesn’t freeze, but the panel acts as if no text is selected. The same thing happens in the Control panel

  2. Bottom margins for labels are too small for Swatch Info objects in the column view (with no card backgrounds)

    If I choose to display Swatch Info card in a column, and choose to omit background cards, the result would have text lines too close to the chips below, like the attached image shows. It makes it feel like the text is not related to chips above, and forces us to use cards still to control 'space after' at least somehow, even when cards are not necessary.

    While the team hardcoded the 'space before' as a strict gap (again, hardly OK), they seem to forget to do the same for the bottom line.

    And if you pick this up, please…

  3. A group with any Warp effect applied to it fails to render hidden objects within when these are shown back

    When an image with 3 or more layers is grouped together then an arch effect is added to that group, the layer visibility toggle behaves strangely in a way where the layers disappear but do not reappear. once the layer visibility is back to on but the image cannot be seen Illustrator will allow you to click and drag the area to grab the "hidden" layer but it is now only an outline with no color fill until you move it. or refill the color. This is a feature we have used for years and never had an issue until…

  4. 29.4 is hanging/freezing in dialogs

    I have found myself unable to work in 29.4. Program hangs/freezes all the time after entering some kind of dialog (save, settings, color mode, etc). I reset the settings to default, didn't help.

    Reverted back to 29.3.1, no problems

  6. SVG保存時にスワッシュ字形等が書き出されない

    macOS 14.7.2 iMac27inch
    Illustrator ver.29.3.1

    再現手順
    1. 新規ドキュメントを開きアートボード上に「Air」と入力し欧文フォント(スワッシュ字形が有効なもの)を指定する。
    2.OpenTypeパネルの「スワッシュ字形」と「タイトル用字形」をクリックする。
    3.SVG形式で保存。その際、フォントをサブセットで埋め込む。
    4.ブラウザ等で確認するとスワッシュ字形等がデフォルトの字形で表示される。

    期待する結果
    スワッシュ字形やタイトル用字形が正しく表示される。

    実際の結果
    スワッシュ字形やタイトル用字形が標準字形になる。

    SwashやTitlingAlternatesはスタイルに対してfont-feature-settings等の設定が必要になりますが、Illustratorはそういった設定を保存しません。また、フォントサブセットを保存した場合でも標準字形のグリフが保存されます。

    EN Translate:
    Step to Reproduce
    1. open a new document, type "Air" on the artboard, and specify a western font (with swash glyphs enabled).
    2. Click "Swash" and "Titling Alternates" in the OpenType panel.
    3. Save the file in SVG format. (Embed the font as a subset.)
    4. When we check the file in a browser, the swash and Titling Alternates will be displayed as default glyph.

    Expected Results
    Swash and titlling Alternates are displayed correctly.

    Actual result
    Swash and titleling Altermates are fallback…

  7. Align art to pixel grid applied by default when adding vector images to CC libraries

    Steps to reproduce: Select a vector graphic in an Adobe Illustrator file and click the Add ("+") icon at the bottom of the Libraries panel. Choose "Graphic." (note: the Illustrator file containing the graphic does not have "Align art to pixel grid" applied.)

    Expected result: The newly created library asset should not have "Align art to pixel grid" applied.

    Actual result: The library asset has "Align art to pixel grid" applied.

    I'm forced to uncheck "Align art to pixel grid," close, and then re-open the library asset. This removes "Align art to pixel grid" about half the time.

    I'm on…

  8. CJKフォントを指定したテキストに文字間のカーニングをメトリクスやオプティカルを設定するとSVGフィルタのレンダリング結果が元の位置より上に上がる

    macOS 14.7.2 iMac27inch
    Illustrator ver.29.3.1

    再現手順
    1. ポイントテキストをドキュメント上に作成し、任意のテキストを入力する。
    2.作成したテキストに任意のSVGフィルタを適用する。
    3.テ文字間のカーニングをメトリクスに設定する。
    4.SVGフィルタのレンダリング結果がテキストの一より上に動く。

    期待する結果
    テキストの位置に対して正確な位置にSVGフィルタのレンダリング結果が配置される。

    実際の結果
    漢字やカナ等の全角ボディを持つグリフが欧文ベースラインで仮想ボディの下部を強制的に揃えた状態でレンダリングされる。

    EN Translated:
    Step to Reproduce
    1. Create a point text on the document and enter any text.
    2. Apply any SVG filter to the created text.
    3. Set the kerning between characters to Metrics.
    4. The rendering result of the SVG filter moves above one of the text.

    Expected result
    The rendering result of the SVG filter is placed at the exact position relative to the text position.

    Actual result
    Glyphs with full-width bodies such as Kanji and Kana are rendered with the bottom of…

  10. ウィンドウの移動の低速化

    症状は、各ウィンドウの移動が全体的にもっさりしてマウスへの追従が遅れるようになりました。

    イラストレーター 2024年版をiMac 2023にて最近まで問題なく使用できていましたが、
    2025にアップデートしたところ挙動に不安要素があったため、アンインストールしたのちに
    2024をインストールしなおしました。

    その際、各種パネル(書式、属性、リンクなど)をフローティングウィンドウにて移動した際に
    動作が全体的にもっさりするようになりマウスへの追従がワンテンポ遅れるように。

    環境設定のリセット。adobe製品の全種アンインストール。関連ファイル削除。
    からの再インストール。
    またOSの再インストール(macos sonoma)も行いましたが一向に改善されません。

    ただしパソコンをセーフモードで立ち上げ、イラストレーターを起動した際には
    ウィンドウの移動がさくさくと動きます。

    正直セーフモードで起動した際に動くということは何かしらが悪さしているのは明白なのですが…
    まったく理由がわからず…。地味にストレスです。

    同様の方いませんか。

  11. 'Audodesk' instead of 'Autodesk' when exporting DWG

    I’ve noticed that when exporting as Autodesk RealDWG, the pop-up progress bar actually says Audodesk. Spelling Mistake.

  12. Scaling of markers in graphs no longer works properly

    Scaling of markers in graphs no longer works properly. Per the online documentation at https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/using/graphs.html:

    “The design is scaled so that the backmost rectangle in the design is the same size as the default square marker on the line or scatter graph.”

    This is how it used to work. Now it scales the markers down to fit in the default marker’s bounding box, which creates absurdly small results (screenshot attached, showing the size that should be generated per the documentation versus what actually happens). I've tried this multiple times and always get the same incorrect result.

  15. Bullet or numbered list incorrectly applying when copying text boxes

    If text that has a bullet or numbered list applied to it runs across a joined text box, the list effect will be applied to all the text before it in the duplicated text box.

    コントロールパネルから塗りや線画を変えるためにカラースライダーに数値を打ち込んだ後スライダーをマウスでドラッグするとカラーパネルに表示されているカラースライダーやカラースペクトルなどの表示が消える。それまで打ち込んでいたカラーの数値が変わったり変わらなかったりする。

  17. 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.

    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.

  20. 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.
