Hey Adobe, First you runied Acrobat with this nonsense upgrade and UI, completely un useable. Had to revert back to the old version and decided after a year to do the upgrade for Illustrator 28.5 from 27.5 as every time we upgrade to 28. anything it doesnt work. All of the Illustrator versions 28 are not useable at all. From 28 to 28.5 it's useless. One problem after another. Always crashes, hangs, hangs then wont open, or opens then becomes non responsive. The amount of times this goes on is ridiculous. Have revererted back to version 27.9 after staying on 27.5 for over a year due to contant problems with Illustrator doing this. Have applied all Windows updates and done everything possible to fix it but it will not work. The mouse goes invisible while using it, or Illustrator wont open or it will hang, or it becomes unresponsive or simply crahses when trying to save work. Pathetic. The amount of lost prodcutivity and lack of access to the new features is really not good

Hello!When I add a graphic element to a CC library Illustrator freezez and crashes. I tried existing library, new library, simple objects, complet ojects...all crash.

Lately, when I go back into my bar charts and change the data or column design, the columns or sometimes the entire chart disappears ... has anyone figured out how to fix this?

the neural network is not working. When entering the program, it gives an error. I've already tried everything. I deleted, reinstalled, and updated all the drivers too. Nothing helps.

Hello, I have an extremely annoying bug: I have a global color group, I want to change the colors of this group with color edit. But first, when I move the color handles, the illustration doesn't preview. And if I validate the color choice, it replaces the color group, but deactivates the global color function, which unlinks all the illustration's colors (and the illustration's colors don't change, of course). I've done the update and it doesn't change anything.I've restarted the software and it doesn't change anything. Please help me!

In Illustrator (v 28.3), after importing a Photoshop tif or psd, when I attempt to use Illustrator's command to edit in the original program, Illustrator opens Photoshop 2023 instead of the DEFAULT 2024.  I could not delete photoshop 2023 to test, as deletion is admin rights only, which I do not have. Since this is the latest version of Illustrator, there is no upgrade. Older fixes to 2022 versions don't apply to the new version.

I was working on a file today, and mid trying to save it, my laptop died. (so annoying)When I got my laptop back up and running a few minutes later, I tried to open the document (didn't care if my most recent changes were gone) and I got this error. I emailed that address like it said to but was wondering if anyone had a quicker fix. NOTE: I do not have this in PDF form so there's no PDF to try to recover the info either.I've been working on this file for the last 3 days without any problems. I also checked my recovery file and it's empty.  

I'm preparing a document for laserprinting, but the patterns I used to fill some of my objects are not showing when the document is put in outline mode. How can I fix this?

I created a document for DIN A4 artboard size, now I want to rescale the whole document (artboards + content) to DIN A3, so the print shop may print in that size (they don't want to rescale). How would I do that?

I have collected dozens of useful scripts over the years and I am constantly having to find the scritps again and again every time Illustrator gets updated. I have probably five different versions running on my machine because I don't want to be shut out of a working version that I have a project in. It may be unreasonable or susperstitious, but it's the way it is.How do you manage to keep your scripts available in each new version? Do you move your scripts folder? Do you store them in a non-standard centralized location that is easy to navigate to? Do you just struggle through trying to remember if the script was last used in pre-release, beta, the last public build? Is there any way to make this easier? I'm on Windows and every time I start up Illustrator, I have to restore my workspace, find my scripts and copy them to the latest version of Illustrator which isn't always intuitive. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

my layers are not locked or hidden, and i have selected the arrow key, everything is fine. But i cant move it!! I can copy and paste things but it wont let me move the objects afterwards. I even tried closing the app and even made a new file, but same stuff happening. help

For example, my current document is scaled down by a factor of 10 to make a graph.Size: 10x10mm I would like to use a script to achieve this, but I checked the script guide and did not find any results, is it that the TIF format does not support zoom export, there is also a question that the JPG format seems to support it, what is the maximum zoom ratio, and there is also a problem with the JPG format, I can not find a way to set the CMYK in the script!

In Illustrator I use a symbol which consists of a red circle with a white edge. On top of such a symbol I place a number.When exporting the ai to a jpg the number won't show. When I use a regular red circle with a white edge the number on top shows correct in the jpg.Is this a bug that things placed on top of a symbol don't show in the jpg ?When saving as a pdf  things go correct.

I am having difficulty exporting my drawings in Jpeg format at high quality. I get an error message saying unable to export, please choose another quality and try again. But then I have to repeat the process all over again until I find a resolution that works. This is very frustrating especially considering that I had other projects at this same resolution that exported sucessfully. Any tips on how to solve this issue?

Hey I've been running through the illustrator tutorials and one is about recoloring images through recoloring and utilizing the Color Theme Picker tool. However, my layout is different than the web tutorial and it does not feature the color theme picker tool. Any advice on how i can modify/fix my layout so that it has the CTP tool?

I normally avoid working with selections in the script, so I haven't noticed such an error yet.   I found this question in another forum. Selecting a TextFrame created in the script does not work as desired.   This is the code used:       var myDoc = app.activeDocument; var topLay = myDoc.layers.add(); topLay.name = 'LABEL'; var txt = topLay.textFrames.add(); txt.name = 'LABEL Text'; txt.contents = "inhalt"; topLay.textFrames[0].selected = true;         Result (text frame seems to be selected but is not) -->   -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------   Possible remedies after some quick tests: 1)   (Because it is only the only element in the newly created layer) Change the last line to:       topLay.hasSelectedArtwork = true;       works right away in this case. -->   2)  If the document is closed and

If I hide or unhide a layer on the first artboard, it is also visible on the other artboard, as if both were linked and changes were synchronized from one artboard to the other. The second artboard is a copy of the first artboard, but should not actually react to changes on the other artboard, but should be editable independently. Does anyone have any ideas?Illustrator 28.5 on Mac OS
