  1. Illustrator close immediately when zoom in

    Hi, I'm working in MacOS Ventura with illustrator Beta 29.8 28; when I try zoom in with the keyboard (Cmd + Space bar), the program close immediately. This happens after I installed the 2 latest patches.

    Please fix that!

  2. Esc button that used to reset canvas rotation now minimizes window.

    I can't change the shortcut back to ESC either. Please help me fix this. It's very disruptive.

  3. Illustrator has trouble exporting files to JPEG

    Illustrator has trouble exporting files to JPEG. It practically doesn't export them at all. It goes through the entire export process but ultimately fails to export the file. This only affects JPEGs.
    Windows 11
    Illustrator 29.8.10
    I deleted the preference file, uninstalled and reinstalled, deleted the cache - nothing helps

  4. Transform Pattern Tiles option doesn’t work when using Bounding Box

    The 29.6.1 build (and the latest Beta build 29.8.0.5) ignores the Transform Pattern Tiles option being enabled when scaling an object using bounding box.

    The pattern is rendered as if it’s scaled / rotated while you drag (if Real-Time Drawing and Editing is enabled), but resets back when you release the mouse button / pen.

    I use Windows. I tried this with the GA build 29.6.1 and it works fine...
    However, here’s a report it happens on a Mac, seemingly with GA build: https://www.reddit.com/r/AdobeIllustrator/comments/1m2n2uq/pattern_not_transforming/

    I bet this issue is related to this one:
    Radial gradient gets changed when a shape…

  5. Latest Illustrator 29.7.0 #88 crashes upon file opening

    As said in the title: Illustrator Beta version 29.2.0 #88 crashes as soon as I open files saved in the beta before. The main Illustrator (29.6.1) does open the file without any problem.

  6. Custom toolbars made in IL 2025 do not transfer over to IL 2025 Beta when opening the workspace.

    I have both Illustrator 2025 and 2025 beta installed side by side. I am pretty religious when it comes to toolbar customization, but unfortunately it appears that you can't transfer a custom toolbar between IL 2025 and 2025 Beta. From what I understand, toolbars are saved in the workspace file. But when copying my workspace over from IL 2025 to the 2025 beta folder, the toolbar I spent so long to create doesn't get transferred over.

    I am copying from "C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe Illustrator 29 Settings\enUS\x64\Workspaces" to
    "C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe Illustrator 29.7.0 Beta Settings\en
    US\x64\Workspaces"

    Is there any way that a custom toolbar…

  7. EPS not rendering correctly in 29.6.1 when double effect is used.

    In 29.6.1, I faced a major issue. All those files where an object has double transparency effect - For example

    1) Apply MULTIPLY effect (Try applying on a gradient)
    2) Group the object with self (CMD + G)
    3) Apply SCREEN effect

    Such files are not rendering properly in the version mentioned. However version 29.5.1 works as expected.
    Please fix this on priority.

    Cheers!!

  8. Illustrator 2025 Version 29.6.1 de maskeleme sorunu (clipping Mask)

    Illustrator 2025 Version 29.6.1 de bir resmi maskelediğiniz zaman (clipping Mask) Overprint açık ise normal bir görünüm var. Ancak Overprint kapatıldığında resmin maske alanının dışı da görünüyor. Bu durum önceki versiyonlarda olmuyordu. Denemek için çalışmayı 2023, 2024 versiyonlarında açtığımda herhangi bir problem görülmüyor. Bu sorundan dolayı 2025 versiyonunu kullanamıyorum.

  9. The program closed just when i just finished making the final details and normally when it closes for a bug it saves a backup automatically

    I need back my archive, I just lost 4 hours investing time in that work and it closed without any explanation, normally when it closes it shows you a notification to fill a form of information but now it was nothing, like it didnt care at all.

  13. Remove Bleed Icon from Artboard

    A red "Print Bleed" icon appears in the upper right of a document when bleed is applied. The icon doesn't provide any function other than show a message that it's a bleed. We need a way to turn this off.

    While Ai now allows to get this disabled in Preferences > General, with the "Show 'Print Bleed' generative AI button on Bleed", I personally don’t think it’s a full solution (and won’t close the request).

    I think Ai should allow to disable this right there, from this icon, and should not force us to hunt the option in the closet.

    I also suggest upvoting this request —

    An ability to disable Text to Vector Graphic feature and any other generative options

  14. When typing, Shift+R doesn't type a letter

    Typing R doesn’t work. I think it's changing to the brush tool?
    I can a capital letter R by using the glyph window, though.

  15. Deleting anything in Layers panel with Delete button focuses the Search field

    When in Beta I highlight an object in Layers panel and click the Delete button there — suddenly the Search field receives focus, preventing me from switching tools with hotkeys.
    If I drag the object onto the Delete button there — it works fine.
    Nothing like this happens in GA build.

  16. Subject: Illustrator Beta – Unexpected Crash When Using Pencil Tool with Command Key

    Hello,
    I’m currently using the Illustrator Beta version and have encountered the following issue:

    Issue Description:
    After a recent update, the application crashes unexpectedly when using the Pencil tool (N) while continuously holding the Command key during drawing. This crash occurs without any warning, and none of the work is saved, resulting in repeated data loss.

    Steps to Reproduce:

    Launch Illustrator Beta

    Select the Pencil Tool (N)

    Begin drawing with the mouse while continuously holding the Command key

    After a short period, the application crashes without warning

    Is this a known issue?
    If so, is there a workaround or a…

    Thank you for reporting this issue. We’ve attempted to reproduce it on our end, but unfortunately, we haven’t been able to observe the same behavior. To help us investigate further, could you please provide the following information?

    1. Is the issue still consistently reproducible on your end?
    2. Have you submitted the crash report via the crash reporter dialog, if one appeared?
    3. Could you share the machine configuration you’re using .
    4. If possible, a short screen recording demonstrating the issue would be extremely helpful.

    Your assistance will help us resolve this faster. Looking forward to your response.


    Regards,

    Aishwarya G Gadodia

  17. Beta Print Bleed has problems with locked layers

    In Illustrator Beta when a bleed is applied to an Artboard and then you lock a layer a message pops up saying "Unhide and unlock objects to include them in generative Expand". Once you click OK the message keeps reappearing not allowing you to do anything else.

  18. Snap to Point is broken in Beta 29.6 91

    When we disable everything but Snap to Point (to have a clean experiment), the way it works is awful.

    It seems like it happens after all, but the way the cursor blinks and the object gets snapped only after the mouse is released makes it very unobvious (snap-to-pointtestBeta.gif)

    Now take a look how general release handles it. This is how it should work (snap-to-pointtestGA.gif) — no cursor jittering, the objects renders as snapped before mouse/pen is released.

  19. Have to restart Illustrator three times to load certain Adobe fonts

    Certain fonts don't load in Illustrator unless i restart the program multiple times.

    Sofia pro for example will never load in the first time and on the second start, will only load the base, so i can't get anything more than the italics and bold weights. in addition, just recently on the second start, i get the error that there is no account tied to my startup.

    By the third restart, i can load in demi, medium, black, and the rest that I need.

  20. Some tools don’t allow to snap the transformation pivot to the current selection’s own points using Smart Guides

    The latest Beta 29.6.57
    It seems like Rotate and Scale tools (and I suspect others as well) no longer see Smart Guides for the current selection’s own points — only of other objects. What’s wrong? All SG options are checked, as always for me.

    Still works as expected in the main build.
