  1. Exported Asset from Photoshop PDF file in Illustrator Renders Incorrectly in Photoshop

    Platform:
    • Adobe Illustrator Version: 29.3.1 (Latest as of 3/10/2025)
    • Operating System: Windows 11 (Fully Updated)
    • Hardware: Intel Core i9, NVIDIA RTX (Latest Drivers Installed)

    Issue Summary:
    When opening a Photoshop PDF in Illustrator, elements are recognized as Non-Native Art. When exporting an asset from this file using the Asset Export panel (see Screenshot-1.png), the resulting exported PDF does not display correctly in Photoshop (see Screenshot-2.png). Instead of rendering properly, the exported file contains distorted lines and artifacts, making it unusable.

  3. Memory Leak: Artboards/Raster Images/Generative Expand

    I'm playing around with creating small artboards on top of a raster image to delineate the areas I'd like to trace later. Every time I do anything with these artboards, I get a warning saying that Generative AI doesn't support raster images yet and my memory usage spikes and doesn't drop afterward. I found this out when my M1 MacBook Pro warned me that I was out of memory with Illustrator using 180GB (including swap, one assumes...).

    Oh, details, yes: MacOS 15.1.1, 32 GB of RAM, Illustrator Beta v29.4.29

    And it's worth noting that clicking the Feedback button (the little…

  5. Entering a value int Width filed in Transform applies a different one instead

    The transform tool isn't working properly. I typed .75 into the W field, clicked on the H field, and got the attached image. Can we get this fixed asap? I'm not a fan of fighting the tools to get them to do what they usually do perfectly.

  6. BUG: Scripting from C#, arm64, Windows 11

    Unable to cast COM object of type 'System.__ComObject' to interface type 'Illustrator.Application'.
    This operation failed because the QueryInterface call on the COM component for the interface with IID '{95CD20AA-AD72-11D3-B086-0010A4F5C335}' failed due to the following error:

    No such interface supported (0x80004002 (E_NOINTERFACE)).

    The code
    Illustrator.Application appInstance = (Illustrator.Application)Activator.CreateInstance(Type.GetTypeFromProgID("Illustrator.Application"));

    Note: Code moved from Windows 10 Intel machine where it works fine.

    Thanks for looking into this ... and for a great beta product!

  10. Can't type hex code in gradient dialog

    In v28.6 -- After double-clicking a gradient stop to open color options, I am unable to enter anything into the hex code text box. May have resulted from me clicking out of Illustrator and back in while the gradient color dialog was open.

  13. I can't make a mockup.

    The model option does not appear in the object menu. Also the mockup option does not appear in the Window menu. I don't understand why I can't see it even though I'm using the current version.

    In this case the Mockup add-on seemed to refuse to run with a non-English language used. If you have a similar problem — please try to switch the app language and reinstall both the application and the Mockup add-on manually through CCD. If it fixes it for you — please upvote and comment.

  14. Major issues on MAC desktop with shortcuts and tools. Unusable actually.

    Copy and paste is not working. Handles and boundaries are not showing. Things are randomly undoing steps. Zooming in randomly is happening. Most shortcuts don't work. I can not edit text, there is a lag and it never enters to let me edit it.

  17. Save as... SVG = Distortion Export as... SVG = No Distortion (Illustrator 29.0.1)

    I have read a few other posts regarding SVG distortion when saving an illustrator file (.ai). When I choose, Save as... I get distorted objects when reopening the file. It varies from points, but typically will add an extra point in various locations of the path. Also, as a test, I tried to save the original and undistorted illustrator file (.ai) through the Export as... option and the file saved perfectly with no distortion. A simple workaround, however, the bug needs to be fixed.

  18. Issue with Eyedropper Tool Not Sampling Gradients from Images in Latest Illustrator Beta Update

    Dear Adobe Support Team,

    I’m experiencing an issue with the Eyedropper tool in the latest update of Adobe Illustrator. Previously, I was able to sample gradients directly from images and apply them to other objects with the Eyedropper tool, and this feature worked smoothly. However, since updating, the tool no longer seems to pick up gradients as it did before, even though I have not changed any settings.

    I've confirmed that the Eyedropper tool is functioning correctly with solid colors, but when I attempt to sample a gradient from an image, it only applies a single color instead of the…

  20. Issue with Chinese Input Method in Adobe Illustrator

    The issue manifests when I attempt to type Chinese characters after switching the input method. No characters appear, and it seems as though the input is not being recognized or rendered in the document. I have tried several input methods and checked for any updates or settings that might resolve the problem, but the issue persists.
