    With Beta build 28.5.66 Illustrator starts to store the relative paths of all placed objects along with the original (full) path. In that way, if a linked file is not found in the original (full) path, it can be resolved via the relative path thus brings the interpretability between win and mac etc.


    Please try and see if this build does it correctly and behaves in the way you expect it to when dealing with paths for links.

    Comment back in any way!

    It is unbelievable that this has still not been fixed in 2023.

    Adobe are such amateurs.

    With the new Apple rules, Dropbox needs to be installed in a folder with your USERNAME in the path name.

    Which means that no one can share any f****** work which includes Dropbox links.

    And iCloud has this same problem. So there is literally no options.

    COME ON. ADOBE?!?!?!?!
