Lately it hapens, that AI converts regular text to outlines when copy-pasting it to another document.
if I drag it to a new document it doesnt change. I've had a similar problem with text on paths for quiete some time, but this is new. Drives me mad and makes AI unusable.

SOLVED! It was a clipboard app called "Paste" that ruined it.

I am having the same issue and do not have any awareness of a "clipboard app". How do I tell if this is the problem?

You could search for the name. But that particular app is not the only suspect. Here are some more:

 

  • Parallels Toolbox running with the Clipboard History
  • LogoTech Keyboard management software
  • TeamVewer Clipboard > Use Shared Clipboard
  • Apple iOS device simulator from Xcode
  • Windows Multi-clipboard
  • Windows Clipboard History
  • Clippy
  • Chrome Remote Desktop
  • Mouse Pointer Highlighter
  • AnyViewer
  • Pastebot app
  • Overzealous antivirus (Digital Guardian) as well as viruses that empty the clipboard
  • Vector Magic
