Remember last type used

I've no idea why I can't get this to work.

I type something in my document.

I click on something else, to draw or whatever.

I click type tool again, and it's re-set to the default font/colour, rather than the last font used.

I don't want to change default overall, I just want it to remember the last font I used and use that for the next time I click on type tool in that particular document.

This seems like a very common thing that people would want to do--i.e. use the same font in a document overall.

Am I missing something?

Facing the same problem here... but actually, Illustrator is using a font from another file, totally different from what I'm using in this new file... It sucks 😕😕

Hello @vitor_6021,

I am sorry to hear about your experience. Would you mind confirming if the problem is similar to the one shared here (https://adobe.ly/3ODn4Dn)?

If yes, try turning off Missing Glyph Protection from Preferences > Type > Enable Missing Glyph Protection to see if it helps.

Also, kindly upvote this UserVoice (https://adobe.ly/3ZBcT8T) to get the latest updates.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

As far as I can see, in the latest version Illustrator actually does remember and use the last type used if you are creating new type objects (AI 26.3.1 on Mac OS 12.4).
