Hello, I am trying to export an Illustrator file as a .psd for eventual animation. My layers look good in Illustrator before I export (first attached photo), but then when I open them up in Photoshop they have a folder icon next to them and the "pencil" layer I created is not inside a group (second attached photo). Does anyone know what the folder icon indicates? I am trying to get all of my exported layers in Photoshop to look like the third image, which is a sample I am working with and not one I made myself. 

Link to tutorial :How to Design Text Hole in Illustrator (youtube.com)I have been trying this for hours now, I am not quite sure what I am doing wrong but I have attached a photo of mine vs. theirs.

Hi guys, I've adjusted the bleed on my document and made sure to have my media reaching the edges of the bleed. No matter what, when I print, there is still a white border around the page. How do I fix this so that I can print my media full page with no white border? I've also tried messing with the printer but I don't have the option to adjust the printer margins.

So i applyed in Bridge keywords and other META DATA to the SVG . but when i open edit and save from illustrator, illustrator will not save that data. i can see it when i open the file but when i save and close the SVG file it looses the Meta data. my only option is to save them as EPS or AI files. i would like to keep them SVGs for web compatibility but now im needing to save more files so i can search.

When I press CTRL + Y (OUTLINE VIEW) the program freezes, only works on GPU PREVIEW 

It just suddenly could not open one day. I tried to installed and update the app again. I also updated my computer. However, the loading screen froze everytime when I tried to open. I could open the app in other computer but I could not open with my own pc.

When I'm in adobe illustrator usually with an object or group of objects selected and I change the opacity my computer will lock and I will have to enter the password to unlock. This happens constantly through out the day. I tested another keyboard and didnt have this issue but this only happens when working in Illustrator. So, this must be a bug with the logitech mx keys s keyboard and adobe illustrator. 

Holaa, estoy teniendo problemas con Ilustrator, los archivos se me cierran de la nada o el programa queda tildado y tengo que forzar la salida y volver a iniciar.Creo que es un problema de GPU, ya que antes podia alternar entre CPU - GPU y ahora me figura como "No hay ninguna GPU compatible", además al entrar en Photoshop me aparece este cartel (adjunto foto). SI saben de alguna posible solucion por favor se los agradezco, utilizo mi computadora (Mackbook pro 13-inch, Mid 2012) para trabajar todo el dia y esto me está generando muchisimos inconvenientes y retrasos. Muchas gracias!

Hello. I'm very new to illustrator and I'm having trouble with the envelope function. I wrap to top object and I made sure it was above the text but when it wraps it crams up the text. I assumed it had to do with fitting the Q but something similar happened when I tried text with no hangning letters. Help would greatly be apprectiated, it took me forever just to get the feature to work at all really since I'm so new. Thanks for your time.

I can't believe I'm the only one I've been struggling with this for decades... How can I get rid of transparency checkerboard? Back in the 90's, Corel Draw had it as default, you could decide the color of the "page", so you could see how it would see over not white backgrounds (screen printing and plotter for example). I need to eliminate that obnoxious checkerboard in the background to work with transparency. I've been trying for weeks to edit a handful of complex white logos, which I obviously want to be able to see on a "NON-WHITE" background as is the default color of the Artboards. Checkerboards destroy my retina and prevent me from following the contours of the elements.And no... it doesn't help me to create a giant dark-colored box that covers all the Artboards. It is tedious to lock/unlock, activate and deactivate each time I export the assets to avoid the background appearing by mistake. In Photoshop you can edit the individual color of each square, or even turn it off.Wo

how to edit trim mark line width size in Illustrator

Weird bug but I have a client document, I open it and all the Myriad Pro Regular text is displayed as Condensed. If I select it and change to a different weight or style then back to regular, that fixes it.Exporting as pdf also shows as condensed. I've tried resetting Illustrator prefs but no difference. Screen recording https://cln.sh/vFYl92F6  Mac OS Sequoia, Interl iMac 2019

I am writing to express my frustration with Adobe Illustrator, which has been crashing frequently, even with simple files. This issue is severely impacting my workflow and productivity. Today was particularly frustrating as the recovery file failed to save almost any of my work. Having used Illustrator for over 20 years, I have never experienced such persistent issues before. Please address this problem as soon as possible.

This may be a really basic question, but it's one I simply can't figure out. Where are the .sbsar files that Illustrator has located on my computer? I have a ton of .sbsar files and wanted to drop a few of them directly into that folder, but I cannot figure out where they're located. I found the ones in Photoshop pretty easily, but still can't figure out where Illustrator is getting them from. Thanks, Jason

I've downloaded a variety of typefaces outside of Adobe and installed them into my laptop via Font Book, and these typefaces would always disappear / uninstall everytime I open my laptop the next day. However, when I check Font Book, the typefaces are still in the system so I'm not sure what the issue is. I have to reinstall the typefaces everytime for them to load again in Adobe and this gets rather tedious - if anyone has a solution to this I'd really appreciate it.

Hallo zusammen,seit kurzen erhalte ich beim Starten vom Adobe Illustrator folgende Meldung: Hat jmd vll. eine Idee, was ich hier machen kann, damit ich wieder über den Illustrator aus auf meinen Brother ScanNCut CM750 (Plotter) zugreifen kann? Vor ein paar Wochen, hatte es noch tadelos funktioniert.  Vielen Dank schon mal 🙂

Une personne hypnotisée par un pendule, un pendule à hypnose,  c'est bon là oooh, Illustrator doit censurer mais pas pour un enfant de cinq ans...  J'ai du prendre au moins vingt blocages pour des demandes qui ne sont pas malicieuses.  

When sharing my Ai file for review with my collegues, The colours chnage when viewing the document in the browser. Can soemone please let me know where I am going wrong and how to fix this problem. I have provided imagery showing the Ai file and viewing the document in my browser. Please note the document is in RGB and even when saved as CMYK it stills changes the colour.The colours used in the original document are official Pantone colours.  

When I go to print a file, the print preview is not displaying the file properly. It is showing it smaller than it is actually printing out in relation to the size of the window. I left work one day and it was functioning properly. The next day it started printing weird.  How it is functioning now, I cannot leave the file as "do not scale" as I can't properly gauge who the printer will output. I've reinstalled the printer drivers as well as uninstalling and reinstalling Illustrator. Any ideas?Casey

OK, first question on the path to enlightenment: what does this message mean? I need to save some .ai files received from a colleague as .svg.The transform statements are being used to rotate text. The svg graphics display and print correctly, so what's the problem with expansion? and do I need to do anything about it?
