Changing lowercase to uppercase in greek with accent

[mariaf37113046]

When changing letters from lowercase to uppercase in greek remains the accent when you are panctuating. In previous version when you were changing, the accent was disappearing. Now you have to change every single letter

Hello @mariaf37113046,

I'm sorry to hear you're having trouble using Illustrator. Would you mind sharing more details, like the OS/Illustrator version and a screen recording of your entire workflow and the problem, so I can better assist you?

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Illustrator 29.0.1

Here in Greece we use accent in our words when we are typing. In other
versions when you were changing a word with accent from lowercase to
uppercase the accent was "disappearing".

See below the screenshots

Thank you so much for responding

What previous version do you mean?

In Illustrator 28.7.1 the result is the same as shown in your screenshot from Illustrator 29.0.1

I'm certainly not an expert when it comes to greek typography, but if the font in question has an accented uppercase version of the accented lowercase character, I'd say it is rather logical to convert it to an accented uppercase character instead of an uppercase character without the accent.

Before I update to 2025 i was working illustrator 2024. I never had a
problem before

[Kurt Gold]

Does that mean that it worked as desired by you in Illustrator 28.7.1?

If so, what font were you using there?

[mariaf37113046]

Yes it worked at any greek font

[mariaf37113046]

But I never had this issue before.  When converting to one another the accent was not there. The issue is now

[mariaf37113046]

And now all the old work that I have done when I'm opening previous files are like this 

[Kurt Gold]

Do you still have access to Illustrator 28.7.1 or any older version? If so, please try again and report your findings.

And as already mentioned, please tell what fonts you were actually using.

[mariaf37113046]

Unfortunately no I don't. This particular font tha t I sent you before and I can type greek is Cera pro

[Kurt Gold]

Thank you. Unfortunately, I don't have Cera Pro, but I tested it with some other fonts in some older versions of Illustrator. In any case it turned out that the behaviour did not change. Accented lowercase characters are converted to accented uppercase characters in any greek word I tried.

Perhaps someone else can confirm your complaint. I cannot.

Make sure the language for the text is correctly set to Greek.
