The Type tool recently started setting the font I used before, even after I changed it—it still reverts to the previous one.

I'm not very satisfied with the product lately.

What version are you using? The font changing problem should be solved in the most recent version (or by unchecking Preferences > Type > Enable Missing Glyph Protection).

Where do you pick up the color, from an image, linked or embedded?

I'm using Adobe Illustrator 2025. I just unchecked this option, and everything seems fine at first glance. Thank you!

I wouldn’t complain about colors when working with raster images, but I have this issue while working with vector files. When I pick a color with the Eyedropper tool, the changes are not drastic, but there are slight variations (this was also present in the previous version).

Can you give examples of these slight variations picking a color from vector objects?
