  1. Impossible de redimensionner un objet sur Illustrator

    Bonjour,

  2. Bug: Typing a "+" to begin a point text object and then following it with a space will break the point text object.

    Typing a "+" to begin a point text object and then following it with a space will break the point text object. I have replicated on a completely separate machine with a different user. This is a bad bug for people trying to put a telephone number with a country code into a layout.


    System info:
    • Illustrator 29.6
    • MacBook Pro M4
    • 48 GB RAM
    • macOS Sequoia 15.5.


    Steps to repeat:
    1. Create a new point text object
    2. Type in "+ 123456789" (plus followed by a space followed by 123456789)


    Observed behaviour:
    • The cursor jumps…

  3. File "..." was generated by a newer version of Illustrator. Would you like to import this file? Some data loss may occur.

    After updating Adobe Illustrator, I have encountered a serious issue when working with PDF files that contain multiple artboards. When opening such files, I receive the following error message:

    File "..." was generated by a newer version of Illustrator. Would you like to import this file? Some data loss may occur.

    If I choose to import, only one artboard remains in the opened file, and all other artboards disappear. This happens with all files saved with multiple artboards, resulting in significant data loss.

    Please assist in resolving this issue, as it greatly impacts my work and causes loss of important…

  5. Open or place PSD file does not keep any editable layers

    I am trying to open a file that I created in PSD that has three layers plus some adjustment layers. Two of these layers are text. Regardless of if I open or place them Illustrator, the file comes in as a single bitmap layer. Open does ask me if I want to keep the layers and text, but it does not work. Place doesn't ask; it just places the image.

  7. Severe color shift in GPU Preview when placing images — macOS Sequoia + M4 chip + Illustrator 2025

    I'm experiencing a serious color rendering issue in Adobe Illustrator 2025 on my new MacBook Pro (M4 chip) running macOS Sequoia 15.5.
    When placing or embedding images (JPG/PNG), the GPU Preview mode displays extreme color shifts, making the artwork look completely different from the source image. However, switching to CPU Preview restores correct colors— but the performance becomes noticeably slower and almost unusable for real-time editing.
    As a professional designer, I rely on GPU Preview for efficient, accurate work. This bug breaks trust in color fidelity and slows down production significantly. Please investigate and address this GPU rendering issue on…

  8. Bezier handles become invisible

    I use the latest version of Illustrator cc 2025, on Windows 10.
    This problem has been going on for several, many versions back so it is not a version problem, but an Illustrator problem.

    When I work on a file for a long time, for example creating brands, so the entire table is full of tests, ideas, etc..
    I noticed that after working on the document for hours, days, it gets to a point that the BUG appears...

  9. Ausgeblendete Objekte werden am Bildschirm angezeigt und trotz Ausblendung exportiert

    Ich verwende ein 64 Bit Betriebssystem und bin mit der Adobe CC stets auf dem aktuellsten Stand. Es stehen keine nicht installierten Updates an.

    Mein(e) Problem(e) trat(en) seit gestern verstärkt auf:
    Meine Datei besteht aus einigen Ebenen in denen Objekte in Gruppen oder einzeln liegen. Für den Export muss ich Elemente ausblenden. Zur Sicherheit habe ich alle anderen Objekte auf der Ebene stets gesperrt. Beim ein- und ausblenden entsteht der Fehler: Trotz Sperrung und Ausblendung wird das Objekt weiterhin angezeigt. Beim Export als PNG wird es leider auch mit exportiert (allerdings nicht zuverlässig - es kam auch vor, dass es…

  11. This issue affects every .ai file on macOS when attempting to open them via double-click from Finder. A system dialog appears stating:

    This issue affects every .ai file on macOS when attempting to open them via double-click from Finder. A system dialog appears stating:

    “<filename>.ai” could not be found.

    This problem has been consistently occurring since the introduction of Illustrator CC, and continues to affect all subsequent versions.

    This is a severe UX and workflow-breaking bug. It makes it impossible to use the most natural way of opening files on macOS. Users are forced to adapt inconvenient workarounds.

    Please escalate this issue to the engineering team and acknowledge it publicly. We ask for a fix or a detailed technical explanation of what’s…

  12. There is a delay and lag when copying in Adobe Illustrator 2025 29.5.141

    When using Adobe Illustrator 2025, there is a delay and lag when copying. When performing a Ctrl+C copy of graphics or text, or when manually dragging, there is a delay and lag in the response, and the copy does not appear immediately. If a zoom operation is performed during a Ctrl+C copy, the delay and lag become even more pronounced.

  13. Issue saving document on hard drive after creating a pattern swatch, file won't save or AI crashes. Cloud document saves fine!

    I keep recreating a pattern swatch to use on a social media image, and every time I go to save the document Illustrator either crashes completely or won't save the file and I have to start over again. Weirdly, saving to the cloud works just fine, it's only when I have to my hard drive on my brand new MacBook Pro. If I do any other work within the file, it will save. But if I create the pattern and use it within the file, the crash happens. Expected result is to be able to save the file on my…

  15. Not constraining to 91 degrees & 136 degrees instead of 90 degrees & 135 degrees with shift

    Even with constrain angle at 0 degrees & smart guides at 45 & 90 degree angles & turning all snapping options off:
    holding down shift when rotating while drawing with line segment tool shows live angle snapping at 0, 45, then 91 & 136, then back to 180, 225, 270, 315, then 0 again.
    When I release at what it says to be 91 or 136 degrees by my mouse -> I check the rotate properties in the right panel & the angles are correct at 90 & 135 degrees where they snapped.
    So it's just displaying the wrong snapping…

  16. Traditional Chinese UI Translation Issue Report--"屬性" (Properties / Attributes)

    Traditional Chinese UI Translation Issue Report
    To Whom It May Concern,

    I've encountered a translation issue in the Traditional Chinese interface of Adobe Illustrator, where two different functional panels share the same translated name, "屬性" (Properties / Attributes), which causes confusion for users.

    Properties panel:
    In Illustrator 2024, this panel was translated as "內容" . However, in Illustrator 2025, its name has been changed to "屬性".
    Its function is to dynamically display the most commonly used attributes and control options based on the currently selected object or tool.

    Attributes panel:
    This panel has consistently been named "屬性" (Attributes).
    Its primary…

  17. 用紙サイズ指定で手差し印刷ができない

    • 使用アプリ: Adobe Illustrator
    • 前の環境:Windows10 / llustrator 28.4.1
    • 現在の環境:Windows11 / llustrator 29.5.1 または 28.7.7
    • 印刷機:富士フイルム DocuPrint C4150 d

    問題:
    前の環境では手差し印刷できるのですが、現在の環境では手差しトレイから印刷できません。
    手差しトレイからではなく、標準のトレイから違うサイズの用紙を出してしまいます。

    行った手順:
    印刷時にプリンタの詳細設定(左下の「プリンター(U)…ボタン→その他の設定)で

    ・「用紙トレイ選択」を手差しのトレイに設定
    ・「原稿サイズ」を「ユーザー定義用紙」に設定
    (バグを確認したのは、A3より少し大きめの306x437mm)

    また現在の環境では、データを再印刷する際に、印刷の詳細設定がリセットされてしまいます。
    (前の環境では詳細設定が引き継がれていた)
    印刷のプリセットを設定したとしても、毎回プリセットを読み込むのが面倒です。
    こちらについても、印刷設定の保持ができるように改善していただきたいです。

  19. The Linked File dropdown does not resize correctly, often goes offscreen

    The 'Linked File' dropdown (visible when a linked file is selected) does not resize correctly.

    If the lower-right corner is dragged to resize the left edge very quickly moves offscreen, then when the handle is released the dropdown is often too large to view on the monitor, as it has scaled so wide that it is off the right hand side of the screen. It is difficult to get it to all fit on the screen at once, and if the lower-right handle goes offscreen then it requires a restart of Illustrator to try again.

    Restarting Illustrator each time this…

  20. Lock Guides button in Properties is shown as depressed when the option is actually enabled

    My guides are always set to locked (Ctrl + Alt + ;) but sometimes on loading the icon in the Properties panel is not pressed in or whatever the term is. I think my Illustrator gets into a state where the guides are neither locked or unlocked causing the issue with snapping to guides later. I found this morning that pressing that button a couple times fixes my issue.
