Question

A few days ago i made some sketches/imported some inspriation images into the illustrator-file that I was working in. I later deleted all of them. Now, whenever i try to export an object into an SVG, the deleted objects follows the export. It even happens when i open a completly new file and even after i reinstalled illustrator. Did anyone else experience this issue? If yes, how did you solve it?

Kristina, did you try to open the preset (Print or Art & Illustration, Web) that you use when creating a new file?

You can find them here (on a Mac):

/Users/your username/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Adobe Illustrator 28/en_GB (or your language folder)/New Document Profiles/Print.ai

It reminds me of a mystery bug that I reported a while ago, it contains a movie with the steps.

I just tried it and it still repeatable in 28.7.1. Can you check your New Document Profile?

Hello @Rasmus29115432l9y6,

That does seem strange. To better understand the exact problem, could you confirm the OS/Illustrator version installed on your computer.
Also, would it be possible for you to share a screen recording of your entire workflow, and sample AI and SVG files? You can upload these to a file sharing service like Dropbox/Google Drive and share a public link to it here. Having this information will greatly help in understanding the problem and find a solution for you.

Looking forward to hearing from you.
