    Currently on version 29.2.1 of Illustrator
    Since upgrade - I've been unable to copy and paste text in Adobe Illustrator. Copy paste function for text is working in all other programmes including other Adobe Creative tools.

    Objects and text converted to outline is fine/no issues - it's just text that is an issue regardless if using selection tool or text tool. It will show the copy option but if using Ctrl V then nothing and if you right click on the mouse, the option to paste is not available.

    Within Clipboard Handling, I have deselected "include SVG Code" and ticked "Paste Text without formatting".

    When two tabs open - again, it will copy all elements between tabs except text.

    I've been using Illustrator for 20+ years so its not a rookie issue.
