Mojikumi (文字組み) settings not working in Illustrator 2025 on Windows

I’m using Adobe Illustrator 2025 (Windows), and the Mojikumi (文字組み) settings for Chinese text are not taking effect. The same file works correctly on macOS, where Mojikumi adjustments (including punctuation compression and line-break rules) apply as expected.
I have enabled East Asian Options in Preferences and checked the paragraph Mojikumi settings, but the Windows version still doesn’t apply them.

The same file works properly in Illustrator 2020, where Mojikumi behaves as intended.
I also found several reports from other users in Chinese design communities mentioning the same issue around June 2025, so it might be a Windows-specific regression.

Is this a known issue, or is there any reliable workaround?

Windows版のAdobe Illustrator 2025を使用していますが、中国语テキsutoに対する文字组み（Mojikumi）设置が适用されません。同じfuァイルをmacOS版 插画で开くと、文字组み（句読点の诘めや禁则处理など）が正常に反应されます。环境设定で「东ジ」言语のオプションを表示」をオンにし、段落の文字组み设定も确认しましたが、Windowsでは效果がありません。

同じfuァイルをIllustrator 2020で开くと、文字组み设定は正常に动作します。
また、2025年6月ごろに中国语圏のデザインコミュニティでも同様の报告がいくつか见られたため、Windows版特有の不具合の可能性があります。

これは既知の问题でしょうか？ もしくは解决策をご存じの方がいれば教えてください。

我用的是windows系统下的2025的插画。我在mac系统发送了一个标注了标点挤压集的文件给我，我的电脑里打开的时候，文字挤压集失效了，然后我尝试了发现不只是自己设定的挤压集无效，朋友默认的挤压集也失效了。但是我打开了电脑里2020版本的插画，发现标点挤压集可以正常工作。我的首选项里已经开启了东亚文字选项。不知道是什么问题

我使用 Illustrator 已经超过十年了，标点挤压系统一直是我处理中文排版工作流的基石。这是我第一次在核心排版功能上遇到如此严重的倒退。为了赶工期，我已经降级回 v29.0 版本，但对于一个需要协作最新文件格式的团队来说，这不是可持续的解决方案。看到如此基础的功能在主要版本中出现问题，我感到非常失望。希望 Adobe 的质量检测流程能够改进，在问题触及用户之前就发现它们。

I'd like to join the discussion to confirm this issue. I am encountering the exact same behavior on macOS with Illustrator 2026 (version 30.2.1) . Regardless of whether I use the default mojikumi sets or create my own custom ones, the settings simply have no effect on text frames. I have tried resetting preferences, toggling the "Show East Asian Text Options" preference, and even restarting the application, but nothing resolves the problem.

I also tested the workaround mentioned by other users: if I apply a single font to the entire text (for example, using a Japanese font for both Kanji and Latin characters), the mojikumi suddenly starts working. However, in professional typography, mixing fonts for different scripts is often necessary, so this workaround is not practical for real-world projects.

Thank you to everyone who has reported this issue and provided sample files. Special thanks to the Adobe team for acknowledging it and investigating. I hope a permanent fix can be released soon, as this bug significantly disrupts our workflow for Chinese typography and other East Asian languages. Please let me know if you need any additional information or test files from my side.

I kept downgrading the application, and the issue persists all the way down to version 29.2. I haven’t tested 29.1 yet, but the feature works normally in 29.0.
I also saw reports from other users on Chinese social media who encountered the same problem, and their workaround was to downgrade Illustrator to the 2024 version.
It seems that this issue has been present across multiple versions, but it still hasn’t been fixed.

Hello @Exusial27177152yj6a,

Thanks for reaching out. Could you try updating to the latest version of Illustrator (v30) and check if it continues to behave the same? Additionally, please confirm the version of Illustrator 2020 where the behaviour is different, so we can investigate with the team.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

I updated Illustrator on macOS from one of the 29.x versions to 30.0, and now my Mojikumi sets no longer work either!
After that, I downloaded version 29.8.3, and when opening the same file, Illustrator showed a message saying that text styles needed to be updated (reflow viewer) , the Mojikumi settings still didn’t work.
 
This makes me suspect that the issue was introduced in one of the Illustrator 29 updates, and it is not limited to Windows.
