Just update Illustrator to v29.5 today (2025.4.28), then I opend an .ai file made with previously Illustrator version (maybe v29.3). Illustrator v29.5 can't show the correct typeface (font) in some Chinese text, even using the "text correct tool (didn't know the correct tool name)"

 

Hardware: Mac Mini M2 Pro

OS: macOS v15.4.1

 

I'm pretty sure it's v29.5 bug, coz I downgrade back to v29.4, the open the same ai file I previously made, everything works perfect & fine!
