Weird Font punctuation behavior?
Version: 23.0.6
OS: 10.14.6I'm experiencing weird font behavior with the Merriweather typeface in Illustrator. It only happens for this typeface and only in Illustrator.
When I try to type ' ," ' (comma + end quote), the spacing inexplicably condenses. When I switch fonts, the spacing goes back to normal. I don't have any special character or glyph settings to my knowledge.
I tried the same type combo in other tools (Photoshop, XD, Sketch), and it works fine and looks normal. This only happens in Illustrator. Any ideas?

Text becomes impossible to edit after several minutes of having the program open
Working on macOS Mojave 10.14.5 and Illustrator 23.0.4.
After working in the program for a few minutes, transform controls no longer appear around text boxes when selected (show transform controls does not fix the issue). Text attributes are then buggy when applied (tracking will not apply to selected word, can't change font). Shortly after, I can no longer select text boxes at all.
I'm a graphic designer and this issue is hurting my productivity greatly. Please provide a solution!

Weird font rendering problem
I have a client-provided font (IND-Hoboken Sans) that is rendering W (capital w) strangely. The apex should be square/flat, but Adobe apps (I used Illustrator as my test, but I've seen the same problem in Photoshop as well) render the 1st & 3rd apex on an angle (even more bizarrely, different angles). Other applications (Font Book, TextEdit, MS Word, Keynote) render the character square as expected.
Most bizarrely, Acrobat does NOT have this problem & renders the character as the system does (ie. as expected). As a test, I created an Illustrator file with the same word as both live…

Type tool broken - insists on being anything but normal type
Unable to select the regular type tool. I get type on a path. This is a deal breaking flaw.

Characters in Type on a Path appear rotated
When trying to type on a path around a circle, the preview shows the letters rotating abnormally, but when converting the text to outlines or printing the type, it corrects itself. Would be fine, but I can't design what I need without the preview first.

Cant see entire font list in gyphs tab?
When I open a New Document and want to view glyphs font list with Entire Fonts selected the lower drop-down doesn't change?! The only way I can get it working is by selecting one of the Adobe templates then go to Gylphs tab and then the font drop-down menu works. Odd, then after that all of my new documents work in the Gylphs tab that didn't work previously?! Once I close Illustrator I'm back to square one again. I have exactly the same set up as 2 colleagues I work with and theirs work from the off.

Changing font size or leading doesn't get applied but jumps with Undo
When editing type, I will attempt to change its pt size or leading and no changes are made. When I attempt to undo those changes it jumps back about 10 steps. This happens at least once a day. I run the most recent macOS and CC.

Ver 23.03 Adding text deletes new layer
When I create a new layer, and select the Type tool and create a new character or type element, AI automatically deletes my new layer and adds the text to a locked layer that I previously created.

Millimeter setting for font size not correct! cost me $1000s in reprinting
I'm a freelance designer working for a top hair care brand which markets their products world wide. We had our entire front label product run rejected because it did not meet EU regulatory standards for ml and net weight type size. When creating the labels the first time I set my font size from points to mm to ensure I met the minimum size requirements of 3mm. Imagine my surprise when we heard from our EU distributor our product was rejected! This is where I made my mistake I trusted Adobe Illustrator program to ensure when I set a font…
