[Monika Gause]

something from where you pasted it from?

can you paste it without formatting?

[Bosko S.]

nope, every text in past year.. earlier worked fine.

There is a long thread about it: https://community.adobe.com/t5/illustrator-discussions/copy-text-from-outside-illustrator-and-pastin...

Maybe there is something in it.

[Bosko S.]

Thanks! Yeah, that's it, I'm not the only one :)))

Issue from 2021 is not fixed yet.. we have AI, but can't paste text 🙂

You're not the only one, but if this were a general issue then there would be dozens of threads all over the place.

I'm still pretty sure that it is some other software injecting this into your text on the clipboard.

Do you copy the text from different sources? Or all from the same software?

Is there any clipboard enhancer installed or activated in your system?

[Bosko S.]

Non of these.. 

This issue happen even on fresh instalation of Windows, with only Adobe package.. and no extra fonts.

If you look on my answer to @Ares Hovhannesyan , you will see that I copied text on this platform with Adobe font, paste it into Illustrator.. same thing.

If you understand me eralier, I work like this more than a year or two..

But this is like, you buy new car with some defect, door handle.. and while time passing you get use to it.. :)))

Hello @bosko.Dsgn,

Thanks for reaching out. Would you mind trying to create a Text Box and then pasting the text into it to check if Illustrator continues behaving this way?

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Thanks,

Anubhav

Hi @Anubhav M 

this way it seems to work without any issues. Personally, I rarely use the text box, but thank you anyway for your help. 

If it helps, this started happening about two to three years ago. before that the "paste" function worked perfectly.

That symbol contain font that not recognized. Try to change font. 

[Bosko S.]

Every text I copied in past year is like this.. correct me, but I think myriad is default text when I paste it.

I'm using Illustrator over ten years, this is from some update maybe a year ago..

ctrl+c

ctrl+v

I hope this font can be reconized 🙂
