"Save As" not overwriting PDF file in Illutrator 24.0 on Windows 10

When saving a PDF with a new file name the file I have open is not being replaced with the new file name. The old file stays open as unsaved with the old name. The new file is saved but it does not update the open PDF in Illutrator with the new name.

Hi Nicole,

 

Thanks for reaching out. Would you mind sharing the version of OS and Illustrator?
You may also share a small video or screenshots of the process so that we can understand it better. Looking forward to your response.

 

Regards,

I am on a Windows PC with Ai version 24.0, but I figured it out. It seems to only be doing this when save artboards is checked. So I unchecked it.
