  1. version 30.3 simulate colored paper causes white fill to render transparent and objects off the artboard dimmed

    revert to how it was before the latest update--where white filled objects appear white on screen and objects on the pasteboard look normal when using "simulate colored paper"

    (this happened on macOS Tahoe 26.4.1)

  2. Palette Redéfinir les couleurs qui se ferme toute seule au moindre clic

    Bonjour. J'ai ce soucis depuis un moment.
    Lorsque j'ouvre la palette de modification de couleur ''Redéfinir les couleurs'' qui se trouve dans Edition/Modification des couleurs/Redéfinir les couleurs de l'illustration... dès lors que je clique sur les cercles pour les déplacer et changer la couleur, la palette disparaît. J'ai beau recommencer, dès que je touche les cercles, la palette se ferme. Impossible donc de changer les couleurs de l'illustration.
    La video en pièce jointe est très explicite.

    Si vous avez une solution, je suis preneur.

    Système MacOS 26.3.1 (a) (25D771280a) - iMac M3
    Illustrator v30.4

    Cordialement.

  5. 日本語入力ができなくなるバグ

    【不具合報告】macOS Tahoe 標準日本語 IME が Adobe Illustrator でインライン入力に失敗する

    ■ 環境
    ・macOS Tahoe (26)
    ・Adobe Illustrator 29.8.6 および 30.3 の両バージョンで共通して発生
    ・IME: macOS 標準日本語入力(ライブ変換オフ)
    ・ハードウェア: Apple Silicon Mac

    ■ 症状
    Illustrator のテキストツールで日本語を入力しようとすると、未確定文字がアプリケーション内のカーソル位置(インライン)に表示されず、画面左下にフローティング変換ウィンドウとして表示される。変換ウィンドウ内で確定(Return)を押してもアプリケーション側に文字が入力されず、ウィンドウも消えない。

    Illustrator を再起動すると一時的に回復するが、数十分〜数時間の作業後に再発する。この症状は Illustrator のバージョンを変えても変わらないため、macOS Tahoe 側の IME の実装に起因する問題と考えられる。

    ■ 再現手順
    1. Illustrator を起動し、任意のドキュメントを開く
    2. テキストツールでテキストオブジェクトをダブルクリック
    3. 数十分〜数時間日本語入力を継続する
    4. 値わず、未確定文字がインラインではなく左下のフローティングウィンドウに出るようになる

    ■ 試みた対処(すべて効果なし)
    ・アプリケーションおよびシステムの再起動
    ・対象アプリケーションのキャッシュ・環境設定リセット
    ・フォントキャッシュのクリア
    ・入力ソースの再登録
    ・ライブ変換の ON/OFF 切り替え
    ・アプリケーシンのバージョンダウングレード(30.3 → 29.8.6)

    ■ 鈴決した事実
    AppleScript による Illustrator への JavaScript 実行命令は正常に通るため、Apple Events 自体のブロックはない。IME とアプリケーション間のインライン入力連携(Text Input Client プロトコル)が切れることが原因と考えられる。

    ■ 要望
    macOS Tahoe の標準日本語 IME において、長時間使用後にインライン入力セッションが失われる不具合を修正していただきたい。特に Adobe Illustrator のようなプロフェッショナル送のドローイングアプリケーションでの再現性が高い。

  6. DICカラーの表示がおかしい

    Ver30.3で新規ファイルを作成したうえでカラーにDIC指定をすると、色がくすんで表示されます。CMYK値に変換したとき、くすんだ色のままの数値になってしまいます。
    新規ではなく以前作ったファイル上でDICカラーを指定した場合はこれまで通りの表示になっています。
    設定の変更で対応可能でしょうか?

  8. プリントアウトを途中でキャンセルすると操作できなくなる

    プリントアウトが完了する前(ゲージが最後まで行く前)に途中でキャンセルボタンを押すと、
    マウスやキーボードでの操作が一切効かなくなる。
    カーソルは動くし、キーボードでショートカットキーを打ち込むと効いているような感じでメニューバーが反応はするが、まったく操作できなくなる。
    アプリを終了することすらできなくなる(カーソルは動くのに)。
    なので強制終了するしかなくなる。

    なお、強制終了のウィンドウを開いてもアプリ自体に問題ないように見えるが
    実質フリーズしている状態。

    また、アプリを再起動しても、回線が混んでいるとのメッセージが出て
    ファイルを開くのも非常に時間がかかる時がある。

  10. The preview is incorrect because some images are missing

    Ever since at least Illustrator version 29.8.5, I've been having preview issues with linked images. Some images are missing from my preview.

    I tested it in Illustrator 30.3, and the problem persists.

  11. Panning at high zoom levels appears blurry

    The issue that previously occurred and was resolved has reappeared in the latest version. I have attached the previous link and details. I kindly request a prompt resolution.

    https://community.adobe.com/questions-652/document-work-area-appears-blurry-repost-814442


    If you drag to work with the preview enlarged, the work area preview will look blurry.
    The more you zoom in, the more severe the symptoms are.
    There wasn't until the last version of 2023, but it came up at some point.
    Due to the nature of the work, there are many cases where the work is small, so it is enlarged and modified.

    It's quite disruptive to the workflow. Please…

  12. Transparency Lost in After Effects When Importing v30 AI Files

    Transparency Information Lost When Importing Illustrator v30 AI Files into After Effects 2026

    Environment:
    - Hardware: MacBook Pro 16-inch (November 2023), Apple M3 Pro, 36GB RAM
    - OS: macOS Sequoia 15.7.4
    - Illustrator version with issue: v30.2.1 (2026)
    - Illustrator version without issue: v28.7.10 (2024)
    - After Effects version: 2026

    When an .ai file saved in Illustrator 2026 (v30) is imported as footage into After Effects 2026, transparency information — including blend modes, opacity settings, and effects such as drop shadows — is lost or ignored. Affected layers render as fully opaque.

    Re-saving the identical artwork in Illustrator 2024 (v28.7.10)…

  14. Windows Explorer freezes when Saving As PDF

    • Fresh install of Windows 10 Pro. Fully up-to date (as of Feb. 27, 2026). DXdiag attached.
    • Illustrator 30.2.1 (64-bit) ** Only Illustrator and Photoshop installed (via Creative Cloud application)
    1. Open AI file
    2. Save as.. PDF
    3. Choose a PDF option, click Save
    4. Click Windows Start Menu icon (or any other icon on the task bar) - Windows task bar (explorer.exe) will be unresponsive
    5. To remedy, Ctrl-Alt-Del and open Task Manager -> Right-click Windows Explorer -> Restart

    I literally have to do this every time I start Illustrator. It then seemingly stay stable for awhile, but then will randomly lock up Windows…

  15. Scroll wheel crash

    Logitech MX Master 2S mouse scroll wheel has stopped functioning in latest versions of AI. Currently hanging and crashing.
    Latest Windows, Latest AI. Latest nvidia driver.
    Asuswrx90, AMD7965, 256 QVL RAM, 5090Founders, Samsung 9100 m2 OS/CACHE/Storage drives
    Expected: smooth scroll
    Actual: App hangs for 2 seconds.
    GPU accelleration settings on or off make no difference.
    I suspect it is a logitech driver issue but a basic bit of mouse functionality in very very common hardware should not be happening.

  16. Free Transform resets frame after each use

    If it was the only problem... Have you ever tried to "free transform" an object like you can do it with Photoshop in a breeze ? Free Transform tool (Free Distort) resets the handles to the rectangular bounding box after each handle drag! Super convenient to adjust a deformation! But did Adobe internally have the distortion tools proposed in Illustrator tested? there are 3 or 4 but all are tedious to use and very incomplete. Please, Adobe, put all this in the trash and replace these useless things with a single tool effective and intuitive... exactly like the "free transform"…

  17. Offset Path creates notches

    Certain paths with certain Offset Path values create these.
    Usually it’s a rather small value, but this sometimes happens with larger ones.

    There are other related problems with Offset Path:
    1. Stroke displaying incorrectly and Offset Path broken — http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447/suggestions/39059872
    2. Offset Path with small values (or Inside / Outside strokes) results in skewed lines — http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447/suggestions/39425959

  18. Changing the Japanese font in the Type tool does not update it.

    macOS Tahoe 26.2
    Adobe Illustrator (Desktop version) 30.2.1

    Changing the Japanese font in the Type tool does not update it.
    This occurs even when "Enable missing glyph protection" is initially set to OFF and no other settings are changed.

    This does not occur in macOS Vetura13.7.8

  19. Vorschaubilder verschwinden im Bridge

    Hallo, ich habe folgendes Problem mit Illustrator (30.2.1) und Bridge (16.02.23) auf einem Windows Rechner mit 64GB Ram, Windows 11 Pro und eine RTX 3060 Ti.

    Wenn ich momentan im Illustrator eine Datei speichere zweig mir Bridge diese Datei nicht mehr korrekt an.

    Beispiel:
    - Normal war die Anzeige in Bridge wie Bild01.jpg
    - die geöffnete Datei im Illustrator wo alles stimmt ist wie Bild02.jpg, alle Verknüpfungen sind intakt
    - ändere ich in der Datei nur das Darum und speichere, ist nun die Anzeige im Bridge wie im Bild03.jpg daher zusammen wie Bild04.jpg

    Öffne ich die Datei im Illustrator ist…

  20. Bug Graphic Display Corruption Issue (Pixel Artifacts on Screen Only)

    Windows 11 Pro 25H2 build 26200.7705
    Intel i7-14700
    Memory 32 GB
    AMD Radeon RX 7600 8 GB
    Storage 2 TB
    Illustrator 30.1 (64bit)


    We are experiencing a display issue when opening RGB graphic files. The content appears corrupted on screen, showing scattered or smeared pixel artifacts.

    In some cases, the issue is reduced or temporarily disappears when zooming in/out or scrolling the canvas. However, the problem is purely visual and does not affect the actual file data.

    When the file is saved or printed, the output is correct and shows no abnormalities.

    Please refer to the attached images for detailed…
