Hello,Latest Beta Build 30.7.11 is now available in CCD. We have below fixes in this build: Relink Multiple Links — More ControlThe Relink file picker now includes a Replace dropdown so you can choose exactly how many links get updated when several selected links share the same source file:Each Link Separately— Open one picker per link; pick a different replacement for each. Useful when same-source links need to diverge. Selected Instances (N)— Replace only the links you picked in the Links panel. All Instances (N)— Replace every instance of that source file in the document in one step.How to try it: In the Links panel, select two or more links, click Relink (or use the menu), and pick a scope from the Replace dropdown before clicking Place. Your last choice is remembered for the rest of the session, so a workflow that prefers one scope doesn't have to re-pick it every time. UV Bugs:[Vote Count : 1] : View menu - Spanish word for "flattening" is misspelledGetPostScriptFontName not work

Hello, The latest Beta Build 30.6.75 is now available in CCD. We have below fixes in this build: Global Typography/Unified Text Engine ChangesIn this beta, we bring a significant improvement to how Illustrator composes text. This should be a big friction removal for workflows that involve non-Latin text. While Illustrator was already composing text in non-Latin scripts, there were some frictional experiences and limitations. To make it easy for anyone to compose text in any language/script, we’ve largely worked on three aspects:Illustrator has two text composers – one works in Latin and East Asian scripts and the other which works for all scripts. Former is the default for most users, globally. In past, if your input comprised of Hindi or Urdu or Arabic Text, you may have noticed broken text shaping (joining of characters) as the application attempted shaping in the default composer. That’s changing. In this beta, when you input any text, either through physical keyboard, or soft keybo

We’re developing a new capability designed to save time on repetitive, non-creative tasks like renaming layers, duplicating artboards, and prepping files for export, based on workflows you’ve shared with us. We’re looking for a small group of community members to join our private beta to test early features, share feedback, and help refine the experience alongside our product team. If you’re interested, please fill out this screener survey to apply. We’ll be selecting participants soon. By signing up, you’ll get early access and a chance to directly influence how this evolves. MollyAdobe Illustrator Product Marketing

Hello :) Latest Beta Build 30.5.41 is now available on CCD.We’re excited to introduce two new features in the Illustrator (Beta) app. Both are available now for testing — your feedback will help shape these features before general availability.Remove BackgroundQuickly isolate subjects in raster images without leaving Illustrator. Remove Background uses AI to automatically detect and separate the foreground subject from its background, giving you a clean, transparent result in a single click.Why it matters: Until now, removing a background from a placed image in Illustrator required multi-step workarounds — tracing with the Pen tool, building clipping masks, or bouncing over to Photoshop. Remove Background eliminates that friction and keeps you in your vector workflow.How to use it: Select any placed raster image on your canvas and choose Remove Background from the Contextual Task Bar, Illustrator will process the image and return it with the background removed. Your original image is k
