    I've come across a consistent and reproducible bug whenever I save an AI file with Illustrator (Beta) v26/25.5 on Mac mini M1 running Big Sur 11.5.

    When the .AI file is saved with linked images and opened with Illustrator 2021 or below, it spews the error "Illustrator could partially read this file." This never used to happen in prior versions to 25.5.

    I've troubleshooted using different settings and even uninstalled and reinstalled both v26 and v25.5 to test with the same results.

    If I were to save the AI file with embedded images, everything works fine. Likewise saved as an EPS file.

    This is forcing me to ditch Illustrator (Beta) for the non-native 2021 version but this also means resaving files with embedded images before they can be used.

    Frustrating and annoying. Anyone knows of a fix or workarounds?
