Is there anything going on with the macOS, Ai 2025 and CEP?Can't get my signed extension to run on it. It's showing up in the menu but it's a blank panel.2024 on macOS works fine; 2024 and 2025 on Windows works fine.I've been doing extensions for a while now, I don't think I've missed anyting.

I want to crop a JPG image. This problem began happening yesterday. The clipping mask is on top, the top layer, no complex shapes, etc.

I have multiple lines where the corners need to meet and perfectly align, but I can't get them to perfectly line up. I tried snap to pixel and tried using the smart guides. I tried moving the objects as well as grabbing the ends of the lines to make them longer, but I can't get these to perfectly line up.  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. 

Illustrator version: 29.8.1 Previously, when illustrator artboards/set of artboards went over a certain size, Illustrator would convert the document to a large format document and extend the canvas area to a new larger maxiumum.  When saving out PDFs, the size would be converted to 1/10th scale.  That has since been fixed with newer PDF versions. However, I have a document that is a large format document with some raster images in it.  My adobe PDF preset is setup to downsample raster images 300dpi for anything over 450.  This usually works fine.  And I have not noticed this issue before.  But currently, the downsampling number I have of 300dpi is getting converted to 30dpi in the final PDF.  I have confirmed this in acrobat with a preflight check.  if I take the same document, and set the downsampling to 2400dpi, the output PDF is 240dpi.  So it seems to me that the downsampling number is getting the same 1/10th scaling treat

Since one of the recent updates to Illustrator, I've noticed a bug where text will change its color from white to black. It seems to happen more to text on paths.Attached image showing the graphic with the text path active (font is white), then the same text with the "create outline" applied and it's immediate change to black.

Unfortunately, the 3D effect prevents me from continuing to use the color gradient. I applied a color gradient to several objects that I named as a compound path. The color gradient no longer starts from the center, as originally intendedDoes anyone have any idea how to keep the original color gradient when using the inflate 3D function? Many Thanks

There's only rulers, grid on and a black rectangle on 58% opacity in my file; thin black lines appear and disappear when moving the canvas around, i cant click on them or anything. How can I fix this?Attached is a video of the canvas moving around and the lines appearing.

I've been trying to find a solution to the problem for a while, but I can't figure it out. I've tried several things I found, like turning Overprint Preview on and off, as well as Trim View and Show Transparency Grid. I also tried switching to and from dark mode in Preferences, but nothing works. The strange thing is that it only happens when I want to modify the artboard (Shift+O), and in the View menu, "Hide Artboard" appears but cannot be used. I aprecciate your help. 

Hi, I haven't had this issue previously in the 2 or 3 years I've been using Illustrator. I work on a laptop mainly as I am a student. I use the touch pad to zoom in and out, which has worked fine for me up until now. It will still zoom in like it has been, but about 50% of the time it will zoom extremely far in or extremely far out. Almost like my mouse sensitivity went up for a moment. I've looked through a bunch of forums and tried messing with every zoom preference option possible, but nothing seems to be working. Any solutions or tips would be appreciated because this is starting to become really frustrating.

Illustrator - 29.7.1Issue:When making a compound path detail is lost / lines seem thinner. This appears both on screen and in print. This creates an issue in file prep for screen printing as both the ink will clog in fine detail and the art does not stay consisten.This seems to be a known issue going back years but I all recomended resolutions do not fix the issue.The path is the same in conversion but both the art on the monitor and the printed output shows a considerable difference._____Please see atached  PDF and EPS file for reference. The forum wont let me post the Illustrator file for some reason. All have the same issue though - file format does not matter.____How can we fix this? What is the best way to prepress this for screen printing for consistent rendering?> j

I have a type to fix on an outlined badge in Arabic, once I place the text over a curve it breaks. Anyone have an idea how to do it?

I want to make a color picker style color wheel, somewhat like this, but with my own color selection:  Is there a way to do this by creating a segmented circle and then blending the colors of the segments together somehow? I want grayer colors in the center, so in fact I would have multiple segment circles of different diameters stacked on top of each other. After their interiors are blended, I would then need to blend them together radially. Or am I going about this all wrong: should I be using lines that are gray near the center and progressively more colorful on the ends and then have Illustrator blend the space between them?

Hi all,i've spend quite some time to name my layers with good, make-sense names and when I try to export Illustrator call them 'asset 1', asset 2', etc.. !I know i can rename them but it's really annoying and time consuming as I have hundred of assets to export !!can it pick up the name of the top layer automatically ?thanks !

After updating Adobe Illustrator (Beta) from 29.0 to 30.0 version, the Quick Pen Tool has been lost.Is there a way to fix it?Please provide instructions.Thanks.

Illustrator 29.8.1 bug:pressing the A shortcut-key does nothing, but it should display the node select tool.My other shortcut keys work.Adobe please, fix.

I don't know if this is a problem with the latest version or if I'm doing something wrong, but the eyedropper tool isn't selecting text attributes when they're inside an artboard, but it does select them when they're outside of an artboard. Is anyone experiencing this or know how to fix this? I've attached a video to help you understand more.

This is "O" text but expanded. You can see in the first image bounding box is in the ouside of the letter O with a black fill color . I made bounding box is inside the letter by but method is not precise. That mean thickness of the fill area remain the same when doing this convertion. How to do this? file is uploaded as well.Letter O  

Hi. I tried the latest version of Illustrator and made a copy of a vector path but it does not show up as mime type image/svg+xml any more on the clip board. What have changed? How should copy and paste to other applications work.?

Will Adobe ever enable Illustrator to import 16-bit images without downsampling them to 8-bit, and give us the gradients we need and deserve? My work involves painting a huge, very high-quality 400dpi PSB canvas in glorious 16-bit, then working the intricate, sharp detail as gradient vectors in Illustrator, where it's essential that I can match the colour values created in the PSB, but Illustrator's poor 8-bit interpretation means loss of quality, and the subtle changes in tone I carefully created are destroyed by hideous gradient-banding, and I am not able to create the art that I need. This is a problem that has been raised on this forums for many years, but while Adobe brings Illustrator into the 20th century by introducing more AI tools which I'll never use, they still fail to integrate the two important tools that should have been seamless a long time ago, and I don't understand why.I'm not asking for much, just for my files to be compatible so that I can create high-qua

I use illustrator for all of my whiteboard style cartoon drawings. http://russlaw.co.uk Illustrator has always worked well for me, as it allows multiple artboards and SVG export, and I can easily put my drawings into ToonBoon animation software which allows me to manipulate all of the lovely vectors for my animations. BUTI would love a keyboard shortcut for the brush fidelity. Can anyone tell me if one exists? When I am drawing buildings and boxes I increase the smoothness setting, and then add more accuracy for more organic things. Sometimes I need to switch quickly between these. I did find the ENTER key which opens the paintbrush tool options panel and speeds things up a bit.  Wondered if anyone else would find this useful?CheersRuss
