Overprint Setting & colour settings
Issue one
Overprint can’t be applied to groups. Individual objects within that group remain unset to overprint, even though the tick box claims it’s overprinting — it is not. This is misleading & downright dangerous.Furthermore, the color issue shown in the video. Your objects should not do that, it again expands the risk for error. Basically all the print sensitive setting in AI latest version have stopped functioning logically, if you ask me & really up the risk for errors in print. Never mind that going through all objects individually is tedious & unnecessary, it prolongs the process &…

Stroke weight defaults to 10pts on oversized custom Artboard
If I create a new document one of the standard sizes, say Letter... then draw an object and apply a stroke... the stroke size defaults to 1pt as it should. However, if I define a new custom oversized artboard, say 500 inches square, then draw and object... when I apply the stroke, the size defaults to 10pts.

Pasting and moving deletes blur and brushes
On iMac Mojave 10.14.6 the Illustrator Update 24.2.3 is very glitchy. When pasting and moving artwork it deletes Gaussian blur and brushes from pasted artwork so then I have to redo all the work again by selecting and clicking on the appearance (see pics 1 and 2). Also when reflecting an object it defaults to an angle and not flipped as normal. Please fix, thanks.

Duplicating an Artboard with art on it and then Undoing it, causes crash
if you drag and artboard with art on it while holding option to duplicate, it duplicates fine, but if you Undo, the duplicated artboard remains and you can't delete. sometimes if you try and select the artboard illustrator will crash. the only way to update is to reopen the affected file.

Stroke stays black even when changing colour
Stroke stays black even when colour is changed. Only way to make it another colour is to expand appearance, which means losing original unless saved off the artboard
2 votesProbably it’s the same problem as this one, and you have accidentally created a complex appearance either for the layer or the path. You have to open the Appearance panel and study the stack of attributes.

Character Panel Typing Font Names Manually Issue
When trying to type certain font names manually in the first field the placement of the letters jumps to the wrong spot.
When I type "Arial Bold", "Arial Regular", or "Cooper Black" the cursor or text placement seems to fail and not type the text in order from left to right. I saw one other post here with a similar issue but it could not be reproduced. This is the first time I have seen this so far on the new Illustrator CC 2020. After typing the "o" in "Arial Bold" the letters end up typing to the left of…

Type objects duplicated on top and converted to outlines
Sometimes when opening up a file, type objects are copied and placed exactly above the original type object, and converted to outlines. There are sometimes anywhere from 1 to 3 duplicated objects. It usually affects every type object in the document. The same issue has been affecting my colleagues' computers, and we often work off of the same documents and share them with each other.
We all have 15" MacBook Pros, using either Illustrator version 2018 or 2019, on Mojave.
2 votesDoes this problem happen with the latest Illustrator build?
If it does — please provide additional information:
1. What is the format of the document used, .ai or .pdf?
2. Does it happen with all the the type objects in a document, or only for some specific fonts, or point / area type only?
3. Do these have any effects or custom appearance applied?
If you have a chance to create a test file with this issue reproducible — please share it in the comments.

Unable to save Illustrator file as SVG using artboards
We use Illustrator to draw lots of icons.
If we place each icon on an artboard and try to save each artboard to a file by selecting Save as > SVG > Use artboards > All, we expect multiple icons to be saved to multiple SVG files.We actually get multiple SVG files, but each SVG contains all layer names from the original file and one SVG icon.
It would be very helpful, if manual cleanup after saving / exporting wasn't necessary.
2 votesNils, please try export svg through File > Export > Export As > SVG and let us know the result
