ð (eth) and Ð (Eth) glyphs not recognised as the same character
The glyphs ð (eth) and Ð (Eth) are lower and upper case of the Icelandic character eth. Illustrator has no problems working with them, except when you need to change the case, whether you do that by Type->Change Case or by changing the character attribute to All caps (or small caps for that matter).
This is a recurring bug in Illustrator, which has been fixed at least twice before, but somehow creeps in a few versions later. I suspect some legacy code in the internal text engine, which does not reflect the relationship between the two characters.

ドロップシャドウの一部だけが解像度が低い
macOS Catalina (Ver. 10.15.7)
Illustrator 2021
ラスタライズ効果設定の解像度が「350ppi」に設定されている状態で、複数箇所でドロップシャドウを使用しているファイルがあり、作業前はすべてのドロップシャドウが正しい350ppiの状態(表示)だったが、編集作業終了時に1箇所だけドロップシャドウの表示が、72ppi程度の解像度に変わっていた。
色々と動作検証をしてみましたが同様の状態にできず、原因不明です。
低解像度のドロップシャドウ部分は表示のみではなく出力した際も低解像度のままとなっており、ドロップシャドウ部分に変更を加えたり、コピペしたりすると正しい表示に戻るようです。63 votes -

Discard white overprint is disabled when background save is enabled
- version 24.x

At this time, the operation related to discarding the white overprint is not performed and the settings is invalidated.
The behavior itself is the same as another bug, but it is not completely fixed 24.1.x.

Sharp corners of a convex curve get displayed wrong with GPU Preview
I've noticed on this newer version of Illustrator that some corners are showing an odd line overlap. Noticeable when zoomed in. I've attached pictures.
It is also applying this to shapes made in older versions.

Cannot create or load documents, the canvas goes black / white / transparent / empty / transparent
Whenever I try to open a new document or a pdf or ai file the screen shows up blank white. It is not because the white part is the art-board since I tried zooming out already and it didn't work. I also tried updating illustrator and that didn't work either nor any other questions I found on here.

Type on Path Characters vanish and appear scattered / exploded on far edges of canvas (when zoomed out) if outlined / expanded
Started in in version 27.7.0
Reproduction procedures:
1. Create type on a path in document.
2. Save the document and close it once.
3. Open that document and select the text on a path.
4. Execute command “Outline Text”The above procedure will make it all disappear and disappear.
This phenomenon is not reproduced in Illustrator 2022 or earlier, so it seems to be a 2023-specific bug.〈にほんご〉
再現手順
1. ドキュメント上にパス上テキストを作成
2. ドキュメントを保存し、いったん閉じる
3. ドキュメントを開き、パス上テキストオブジェクトを選択
4. アウトラインを作成以上の手順で、テキストはパスごと消えてなくなります。
Illustrator2022以前では再現しなかったため、2023固有のバグと思われます。-

Units change to points from millimeters in Preferences
Preferences Units go back to "points" even after I change it to "millimeters" on 2018 CC version. I go to Units (no document open) and change from default POINTS to "mm". When I open a new document it is reading POINTS again!

Fonts changing in files when opened in Illustrator 29.5.1
Existing files created in illustrator (on a different desktop) when opened in v29.5 & v29.5.1 display incorrect fonts - the font is changed to a completely different font (e.g. Myriad Pro will be changed to Times New Roman) throughout the document. All the text in that font family is changed, but other fonts used in the document will display correctly. The font is installed correctly on the system and the changed font can be changed to the correct font by selecting the font from the illustrator font list. The thumbnails display correctly in Bridge before opening in illustrator. Reverting illustrator…
54 votesThe team reports the Beta, starting with 29.7.0.88, should have a fix for this.
This particular build introduces a lot of WIP snapping-related changes, so if your work depends on this, be mindful of it. However, before this fix gets pushed into general build, having the confirmation it actually works would be great — so please check it, if possible, and comment back.

Non Functional Gradient stop bug in 'Color' panel
When adjusting a colour stop its colour is visible in the 'Color' panel's 'Fill' field. You used to be able to cancel the stop colour by clicking on this 'Fill' field to go back to the gradient fill and to get the 'Stroke' colour back in sight.
This is no longer the case. In spite of Illustrator flashing the tool tip 'Click to cancel' clicking does not work at all. The fill colour is stuck on the 'Colour Stop's colour.
Now you can only see the 'Stroke' field in the 'Gradient' panel and the 'Tools' panel. This is a pain…54 votesCompleted (Comments Open) ·AdminAvinash Singh Kotwal (Principal Product Manager, Adobe Illustrator) responded

「オーバープリントブラック...」の不具合
OS/macOS11.6.8
Illustrator.ver.27.7(以前のバージョンから同様の挙動と考えられます)スタイルの当たったテキストをCMYKの黒100でオーバーライドしたものに対して「編集→カラーを編集→オーバープリントブラック」を適用するとCMYK黒100の部分がスタイルのカラーにフォールバックする。
再現方法
1.テキストフレームを用意し塗りに対して明るい色を設定した段落スタイルを適用する。
2.任意のテキストの塗りに対してCMY各0、K100のCMYKブラックを適用する。
3.このテキストフレームを選択し「編集→カラーを編集→オーバープリントブラック」を適用する。
4.CMYK黒で指定した部分は塗りに対してオーバープリントが設定されるが塗りがスタイルカラーに戻る。期待する結果
「編集→カラーを編集→オーバープリントブラック」を適用してもスタイルを適用したあとでCMYKブラックをオーバーライドした部分の色が変わらずオーバープリント属性が設定される。実際の結果
「編集→カラーを編集→オーバープリントブラック」を適用するとスタイルを適用したあとでCMYKブラックをオーバーライドした部分の色が変スタイルカラーに変わってしまう。回避方法
スタイルを適用した部分を黒でオーバーライドする際はCMYKブラックではなくグレースケールのブラックを利用すると回避可能。また、スタイルが適用されたあとCMYKブラックをオーバーライドされた部分のあるテキストフレームをスクリプトにてoverprint属性を適用しようとした場合も同様にスタイルカラーに戻ってしまいます。
回避方法がありますが、CMYKブラックとグレースケールブラックで挙動が異なるのは問題です。オーバープリントブラック処理は最終的に処理を行う場合が多い処理です。意図しない色変化が生じるリスクはできるだけ避けたほうが良いです。早急に改善いただきたいと思います。

Eyedropper doesn't work on groups
When I select a group and I try to use the eyedropper tool, this seems to not work.
In the fill box in the toolbar it appears as the colour already changed, but the group still looks with the original colour.
If I ungroup the group, or if I unite the group with the pathfinder (plus cmd+8), then the eyedropper works regularly, but this is not the ideal way to work. I already contacted the support online, but the issue hasn't been sorted out properly.I use MacOS High Sierra — Version 10.13.6
