Questions

Hello, I am trying to make these letters I applied a bevel to not be pixelated around the edges. I have tried ray tracing as a vector, high quality, etc which creates the clean edges, but then I get these black lines around the letters and some inside the letter. I'm not sure how to get rid of them or how to not make that happen. How can I vectorize these letters so that all the edges are clean?

For context, I am using migrating from CorelDRAW to Illustrator to create vector drawings for use with a laser engraver. I noticed after a couple tests that every SVG being saved out of Illustrator is coming in at 75% size on my laser cutter. I double-checked this by saving a 10mm x 10mm box as an SVG in Illustrator and opening the SVG in CorelDRAW. It comes in at 7.5mm x 7.5mm.Settings in attached image: Illustrator on the left, CorelDRAW on the right. I think I have the settings as close to identical as I can considering the different options. How can I get my SVGs to save at the correct size in Illustrator?

¿Podrían mejorar el calco de imágenes en Illustrator?Sería bueno calcar cualquier imagen en Illustrator y que en el resultado no hubiera diferencias respecto a la imagen original, que fuera mas facil calcar una imagen, el calco de alta fidelidad y 16 colores lo hacen bien pero seria todavia mejor si se puediera mejorar

Hola! Tengo un problema. Necesito exportar para traducción un archivo Illustrator que tiene texto e imágenes. El formato que admite memoq (la herramienta de traducción que utilizo) es el SVG, pero al exportar de Illustrator a SVG los textos no quedan todos bien. Algunos sí, pero muchos quedan palabras partidas, incluso letras de a una (de la misma palabra) y eso dificulta la traducción. ¿Se pude solucionar este tema y que las frases queden unidas?Muchas gracias desde ya

Hey smart people. Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong? When I try to relink multiple instances of the same (missing) file to my illustrator document, it used to be that I could select in the links palette all the links to the same file and then illustrator would bring up the link dialog box for every instance that I had selected. Although it wasn't automated, I only had to double click on the name of the file to link to, and it would cycle to the next one. Today I noticed that when I select mulitple links it only relinks one of them and I have to select each link separately. Am I missing something? Have they changed the way it works?  Please advise, thanks.

Hi! I kind of need urgent help because I have a client deadline quickly approaching. I have been working in illustrator on both my iPad and Mac, on the same file. I did a lot of drawings on my iPad in color, but then when I went to open up the file on my Mac to continue working, everything shows up only as outlines, with no color or stroke. But when I am looking at the file from the homepage, I can see the color in all my drawings. Also, when I try to edit the color of one of the outlines I can pick out a color, but it doesn't actually add any color. How do I fix this? I attached screenshots of what it looks like toggling in and out of Cmd-Y.

Rotation of an object does not "remember" how it was originally created if you use the Transform Rotate panel.  It would be great if you use this feature that it would remember the original orientation of the object (like in Flash).

Bonjour, Je rencontre depuis ce matin un souci sur Illustrator, lorsque je souhaite partager un lien d'une création (le bouton bleu "Partage" en haut à droite"), je n'ai plus l'option "Toutes les personnes disposant du lien peuvent commenter". Je ne peux mettre que l'option "seules les personnes invitées peuvent commenter". D'où celà vient-il ? J'aimerai récupérer la première option, afin de demander valider du contenu auprès de personnes qui ne'ont pas de compte adobe. Merci d'avance pour votre retour. Simon RACINEUX

Why is this vector distorting when I make it smaller?

I have noticed whenever I open Illustrator, all the apps in my system (including Illustrator), Adobe and others become really jittery and slow. The CPU does not go over 30%-50% usage, the Ram does not go over 50%, the GPU usage remains below 10-20% depending on the application.This happens on both Intel and AMD systems. I don't understand where the bottleneck is coming from.Is there anyway to figure out why the system becomes so slow that multitasking becomes near impossible.

How can I get the text style to be able to be edited when placed from the library?

I have read the forums on this topic and have tried uninstall/install renaming preferences folders and tried to delete some Temp files within AppData and Illustrator still will not open. It gets lagged (stall) when the plugin "SmartEditUI.aip" trys to install. I run a full time business using this software and this is costing me money not being able to use the software.The software was working fine 2 days ago. Not sure what happened...Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!Moderator: Moved from  Adobe Creative Cloud​ to Illustrator

Why can't I search assets in the cc library panel?

What are the best practices for optimizing performance in Adobe Illustrator?

It would be amazing if the chart tool could add data labels like it does for categories. I make so many charts and don't understand why Microsoft products can do this but it's never possible in Illustrator after all these years.

I use Nvidia GC. I wish to know whether there is a way to get this GC driver update automatically. Because after frequent Ai crash only I check the update & did it mannualy.    

Longtime user of both Adobe and Apple products; from the beginning (Illustrator 88) and the Macs with Motorola chips.I recently purchased a MacBook Pro 16" M3, to replace an aged (intel) iMac (2019). Did the data migration from the old to new Mac, without issue. Also did a clean install of all Apps, including Adobe CC.With the MacBook up and running (apps installed), for some unknown reason, now all my Adobe Illustrator files show as blank icons, in the Finder?!? And it's only happening with Ai files. PDF, PSD, etc… icons all display normally in the Finder?!? Double clicking the file does open in Illustrator. I regularly save screen shots of the files I release to; clients, printers, and include a file directory with the files. Now receiving questions from prepress and clients, when they see the screen shot with blank (unrecognizable) file icons.I spent hours trying to resolve. Researched and did all the recommended settings adjustment, with no success. Then reached out to AppleCare, t
