An error occurred while saving the comment An error occurred while saving the comment This is an insanely complicated task.
Not every font can be converted to a series of separate stems. What about round corners? decorative elements? optical compensations? This is only us, humans (or maybe some new neural networks), can see separate parts in the merged and united glyphs.However, there are some tools which can help you edit these paths.
1. A paid plugin, Reform by AstuteGraphics, https://astutegraphics.com/plugins/reform — it allows you to intuitively edit outlined strokes, very close to Width tool, but perhaps even better.
2. A paid script. MojiDisassembler script, https://sppy.stars.ne.jp/mojidisassembler — it tries to break united shapes into overlapping parts. The only downside of it — it’s in Japanese only, but little text in it and it can be translated.Actually, these two tools combined work magic.
As for the automated one-click solution — thanks for the request :) -

An error occurred while saving the comment Generative Expand works like this:
1. A copy of the artwork gets rasterized, and taster-based generative fill is used to fill the void
2. The raster result is traced using Image Trace
We don’t have control over the settings used while tracing the result, but it ignores stroke detecting completely... Illustrator is not that good in tracing strokes in general (and to be fair, no other app or services I know does it well). It’s a common root problem.But yes, it should work better. Voted.

This was marked as fixed in 2019, but there were several reports about this still happening after 2022.
Please vote and comment if this is something you occasionally experience still.
An error occurred while saving the comment Can’t reproduce, really.
If you press Cmd/Ctrl+0 before pressing Cmd/Ctrl+V, to fit artboard in window, it works as it should, quite precise.
Remember, the Paste command does not paste in the middle of the current artboard, it pastes in the middle of the view. -

An error occurred while saving the comment Even though we can hold Shift to pick a color form an object with a gradient applied, it picks the color sampled from the screen — the RGB value.
It means if we are in a CMYK document and picking a color from a white-to-black gradient, the picked color would NOT be a shade of black, as expected, but an atrocious converted muddy RGB value.
This is not what it should do! -

An error occurred while saving the comment Perceptual gradients are calculated using Oklab color space:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oklab_color_space
So yes, it gets converted into CMYK, using the working color space. It cares more about transitions than respecting the actual colors of the stops also.
If you wish to keep these and have more control about the intermediate colors, perhaps you’d better seek an alternative solution, like this script: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q3FG0g5yDm8 -

An error occurred while saving the comment By description I’d suggest a modifier key state got stuck.
Perhaps unplugging the keyboard and rebooting can help to solve this. -

An error occurred while saving the comment Yes, does the same thing for me.
I remember some other reports about doubled blending mode getting calculated wrong. Will merge or link if I found any.AdminEgor Chistyakov

This issue is reportedly fixed in the latest Beta 30.3.126 build.
Kindly update (or install) to verify the fix making it behave as expected, to allow the team to safely push it into the next general build.
If it still works wrongly — please comment back.
An error occurred while saving the comment Jesse, do you have Keyboard Maestro installed?
If yes — does it look like the same problem? — http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447/suggestions/50678762An error occurred while saving the comment Jesse, what options do you have enabled in Preferences > Clipboard Handling? Specifically Include SVG Code — is it on?

An error occurred while saving the comment Ronald, just to clarify — which configuration of Area-51, what GPU exactly (in case it matters)? Can you share full specs?
Were you able to see this behavior with a previous version of Illustrator? -

An error occurred while saving the comment Can’t confirm... the spot I created gets correctly overprinted for me (looks fine in both Ai 30.0 and Acrobat’s Output Preview), on Windows 10 though (it can make a difference)... Can you share a test file, please?

An error occurred while saving the comment OK, there is a method to deal with images, but it requires using several free scripts:
1. Drop the images on canvas and select them together with the paths you need to use as clipping paths (the stacking order matters)
2. Use this script by kamiseto — https://kamiseto.hatenadiary.org/entry/20100217/1266412144 ...actually, links there seem to be expired or dead... and the main scripts requires some missing libraries... hmm... there’s a way to dig these out using web.archive.org, but I can’t say it’s fair, if the author decided to delete these intentionally.
2. Well, there is a way to generate clip groups from images though, by clicking Mask button in the Control panel with only images selected. Then, without deselecting, you can use Object > Shape > Convert to Shape to turn these into rectangles, and then use Transform panel to set the common size for all of these at once... Don’t worry about the way clipped images now become hidden for now
3. ...because these two scripts by Seiji Miyazawa would allow to fit the contents of this clip group the same way as InDesign allows — https://onthehead.com/ais/group008 (ant there is a request to have these functions integrated, http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/40607677)
Hope this helps.An error occurred while saving the comment There are several methods to achieve this in Illustrator.
1. To learn how to use variables in Ai (and it’s rather intimidating! even with the help of the free and brilliant Variable Importer script by Vasily Hall: https://github.com/Silly-V/Adobe-Illustrator/blob/master/Variable%20Importer/VariableImporter.jsx — and here’s how to use it — https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aUiRGLT8byA)
2. An easier method for text only, Batch Text Edit script by Hiroyuki Sato: https://github.com/shspage/illustrator-scripts/blob/master/batchTextEdit.jsx
3. Another approach, for handling text too, Multi-Edit Text by Sergey Osokin: www.youtube.com/watch?v=PcyT0KmuepI
To handle images though... I don’t think there is a simpler method than variables.
Sure, XD drag-n-drop method is way easier. Voted. -

An error occurred while saving the comment Can you record a short demo of this behavior, please?
Do you use version 30.0? Do you remember anything like this in previous versions?
Does it happen for a specific font you try, or does it apply to all fonts? Are these locally installed or from Adobe Fonts?
Please provide as much information on this as possible, to help the team to start investigating. -

Perceptual Gradient now honors the Document Raster Effect settings in latest Beta build 30.1.89
An error occurred while saving the comment It still rasterizes the whole object, rather than converting it to a clipped bitmap (unless you also enable Dither though).
Here’s a demo.AdminEgor Chistyakov

An error occurred while saving the comment Doesn’t happen for me when I try to... Stays at 2 (even though I have no idea why only 2, when I set it to 3 the last time I remember exporting an SVG...) When I try 5 — it stays 5.
Perhaps something else differs? Can you share a screenshot of the Export SVG dialog, to see all other settings used? Perhaps a specific value or a combination lead to this problem. -

An error occurred while saving the comment It feels like a task for a script...
Unfortunately, it won’t be able to set bleed values — scripts don’t allow it: https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/908050/suggestions/50205060
Other than this, it’s quite possible. Having a solution from the box would be nice to have. Voted.AdminEgor Chistyakov
