    The latest Illustrator release - v29.3 now offers 'Preview Missing Fonts' functionality to improve your experience when working with files that contain unavailable fonts.

    If you open a file with missing fonts, Illustrator will now render the text correctly in Preview Mode on the artboard, even if the fonts are not installed on your system. This ensures the files appear as intended without requiring immediate font installation.

    I'd love for Illustrator to, upon opening a PDF file, offer a simple "yes or no" dialog option where it promts to convert text to shapes/outlines before opening.

    In case fonts are missing or are displayed incorrectly due to differences in the fonts installed and the fonts used in the PDF-files. Now I have to do this by converting to outlines in Acrobat, first, and then open the converted PDF into Illustrator.

    Love to see such a feature!
