Questions

My colors are all wrong in illustrator, and illustrator alone. Everything is fine in photoshop, however when i try to select 100% yellow in illustrator i get orange! its insane! and the worst part is that the colors are actually correct, its just how the interface of illustrator works. When I try to screen shot, then place the image in another app, the colors look fine. Not sure what to do, I've been messing with my color settings to see if that makes any difference, but nothing helps at all. It makes it impossible to use the program with color. Again, I don't have this problem with photoshop or acrobat, just illustrator. What is going on?

I was working on adobe illustrator, then went back 4 hours later to continue and it said my license had been suspended. It had given zero notice in advance that this was going to happen, no countdown no nothing, and this is unusual because my license was renewed fairly recently. My photoshop license was suspended too when I checked.

Whenever I make a sketch of anything for some reason it will automatically make circles and they will appear on my sketch. Im not sure how to disable it from doing that or what exactly is happenning.        {Renamed by MOD}

Hi community.  I want to make numbers rotating around a circular shape. I do it the classic way, but the orientation of the numbers are in a circular direction.  I want the numbers to be like in the example of the Tachymetre, which are sitting ( Like a clock/watch).And not on the side going around. I found a way to make this possible by going to the transform panel and setting it to 0, and doing it manually one by one which is a tedious process. So is there a faster method to achieve this? Thank you.  

Hello! I have a problem regarding Adobe Illustrator. I make a shape and after i save this document as png it shows me a white corner, and i can t remove from it. Any suggestions? Thank you!

Hey everyone, I've been having this problem for a while now that I cannot find any information online about it.For some reason Illustrator will change the colours of an opened file at some random point while I have the file open and everything within the file will look like it's washed out or has some sort of grey overlay over it. Sometimes it'll only do it once a week or so, and sometimes the colour change is not as bad as other times, but it's still brutally annoying when I'm trying to export a file for a client. It's not just the swatches either, photos will become washed out as well.It isn't an RGB vs CMYK file issue as that setting never changes, this is happening while I'm in the middle of editing the file, adding text, drawing a box etc. I mostly am working on RGB files, and the file will never change from RGB.Illustrator will say the colour values are identical after the colour change but they obviously are not. When I do change the colour mode over the file ends up looking eve

I was trying to render this design in 3d inflate but then it came out with weird shapes like this. I don't have any layer that would create this though. I also have a problem where the render is supposed to look inflated but certain parts somehow looks deflated? Does anyone know what's the problem here?

Hi Folks,How to apply character direction to TextFrame characters like LEFT_TO_RIGHT_DIRECTION | RIGHT_TO_LEFT_DIRECTION using extendscript.Thanks in advance 

Hello! In this example, I'm making a flyer with this coppery lettering. This is a 4 in by 8.5 in flyer and is not on a huge artboard. First I'm typing the words I want. Then I'm making outlines of the letters to make a shape, and I'm "Drawing inside the shape" to paste a high res image of a copper plate. I'm doing this for each letter shape, so I'm pasting in a large copper image 28 times. This file is almost 800MB! I feel like I'm taking a long way around doing something and causing a lot of heavy fuss. Can someone tell me what I should be doing instead to acheive this result with a more reasonable file size? Thank you!

Hi All, I have been struggling for a while to export 3D objects designed in illustrator to svg without loosing the edges. I think this has something to do with the shading ? I've attached the files to show what I mean.

Hi,What would be the best way to create an image like the one below in illustrator?Thank you

Hallo zusammen, ich (Gelegenheits-illustrator) möchte vier Zeichenflächen drucken, die einen gemeinsamen Hintergrund haben, damit man das Bild an der Wand zusammensetzen kann. Beim Druck werden die Texte und Rahmen jedoch nicht ausgegeben. Wenn ich die Farbe von ffffff auf etwas dunkleres ändere, dann wird es teilweise angezeigt. In der Druckvorschau zeigt er bei dem einen dann die Farben anders an, bei den anderen fehlt der Rahmen udn beim letzten hat er dann den Text, den ich grau gemacht habe, gedruckt, aber den weißen Text nicht. Hat jemand eine Idee? Danke schon mal und viele Grüße:)

Just started having issues with trying to move placed photos on an Illustrator artboard. Anyone else having this issue?

I keep getting a filled-in half moon.I am drawing gnomes and I need "emphasis" lines like defined round cheeks and lines within pointed ears.

Good Morning,I have been working on an illustrator project for the past few weeks. Today, when opening it, every artboard except the first was deleted, and said artboard is completely blank.The thumbnail looks like this;but opening the project looks like this.I have shared the link to the project here, I am not sure what the issue is or how to fix it.https://shared-assets.adobe.com/link/f1c256e3-df3a-4eb2-5d62-7b5ce8a5c8d0This is Adobe Illustrator 2024 28.7.1, and I am on windows 11.Thank you so much,Taino

Hello all, I'm experiencing issues with my scripts in Illustrator CC 2024. Each script has around 20 functions, and they used to run smoothly in CS5 and CS6. Now, they only run for about 10 files out of 80 files before stopping. Can anyone help me understand why the scripts are stopping? Is it related to Adobe Illustrator CC 2024 or the graphics?

I need help!! Ever since the recent update, I am not able to use the Space Bar as a short cut for the Hand Tool in AI and PS.  I already tried the following advice from the Internet:1. resetting the tool presets2. resetting all tool preferences3. closing down Chrome while using Adobe4. only using 1 adobe program at a time5. turning off space bar shortcuts for Apple spotlight under system preferences6. restarting the computer and programs after each change7. Updating programs and hardware: System is up to date for El Capitan and CC 8. Tried changing my keyboard shortcuts to spacebar (but it will not permit me to do so. An error message comes up saying I can only choose A-Z)I am using a Mac El Capitan 10.11.6. Did Adobe do away with this shortcut? It doesn't make any sense that they would remove this from their programs. THANK YOU!

Just wondering if anyone else is having this problem after updating to MacOS Squoia 15.0.Illustrator is running ok (as far as I've explored), but the pdf's I'm getting after export are looking screwy when opened by Preview. Here's how the file looks in Illustrator, or when the pdf is opened by Acrobat (ie everything is correct) But here's how it looks when opene by Preview, or when I print it (the type and graphics that were white have changed to black, sometimes with a white outline) Do I just give it a few days for Adobe to patch? Thanks 🙂

Wondering if there's a script out there that will automate the swapping of fill and stroke for multiple objects in a complex image. Doing it object-by-object is a bit tedious (even using 'select similar' commands).A simplified example: I have four solid filled boxes with no stroke, each box a different color. Can I automate switching stroke and fill on each one so I end up with four non-filled boxes, each stroked with their former fill color? Perhaps there's a way to automate the sequential selection of each object and perform the swaps one at a time.Thanks for any advice!

I downloaded an Illustrator business card template that include the actual business card size as well as a bleed. When I export it as a photoshop file (with layers) it crops the image to the actual card size but disregards the bleed. How do I export the template file to include the bleed? Additionally, when I open the Artboard dialog the ruler changes. The secon Ps file shows the ruler w/o the Artboard dialog.

I added a material, but would like it to be on all the letters not just one of them (if I move it will go onto others but never on all the letters not distorted (I tried rotating) on sides only (think I can handle this with a duplicate on top and removing extrusion and material, wondering if a better way exists.
