Question

Illustrator text alignment issue after export to pdf

Hello, I have a "mysterious" issue with text alignment in an Illustrator file. It's a document with various text boxes (end credits for a movie, that i import to After Effects for rolling), they are left / right justified, and are aligned on top - in my open document. As soon as i export a pdf, or just look at the document with mac's preview function - a few lines jump out of alignment. It also imports that way into After Effects. its not a regular jump in the alignment - it concerns a few lines, while others stay in the right position - in the SAME textbox. any ideas what could cause this would be highly appreciated, thanks in advance!

Hello @adoque,

 

Sorry to hear about your experience. I tried replicating this behavior on my end but could not do so. Would you mind sharing some more details, like the exact version of the OS/Illustrator, system config (CPU/GPU/Memory), a sample Ai and PDF file (https://community.adobe.com/t5/illustrator-discussions/share-your-files-in-6-simple-steps/td-p/12967531), and a screen recording of the problem (https://community.adobe.com/t5/illustrator-discussions/screen-record-an-issue-on-windows-amp-macos-for-sharing/td-p/12967727), so we can investigate this further?

 

Looking forward to hearing from you.

 

Thanks,

Anubhav
