Question

Random-Chaotic Type Appears After Loading File

Hi everyone, 

Opened up this file that I have been working on for the past couple of weeks. I've opened it up about a dozen times before this and never had a problem. Now, upon opening random letters have appeared every where across the file. They are unselectable and unmoveable. Any suggestions on getting rid of them or why this happened? I feel like this is a pretty simple file all around. As a note illustrator did not crash while this file was opened last, or since it has been opened again. Thanks in advance for any thoughts or suggestions.

Specs

Adobe Illustrator 2024 28.0 

iMac M1 2021 16 GB Sonoma 14.0

 

Here is the link to the file:

    This has been reported a couple of times and it would indeed be helpful to take a look at a sample Illustrator file.

     

    Probably I'm overlooking something, but your link to the file does not allow to download the sample file, does it?

    I opened the file, but there are no random letters as per your description above.

     

    There is just a missing link.
