A few months back when I would expand my stroke and then use the divide tool on my overall design, uneven lines would appear. The lines would be perfect until hitting the divide tool then I would get uneven wavy/bumpy paths (sample picture attached). It happens every time now but never happened until a few months back. I make manufacturuer specs and need the linework to be clean. Any advice would be great!

Does it get better in View > Preview on CPU?

No. All the wavy areas have points as well after divide. So a smooth circle with 4 points now has dozens if not hundreds of points.

OK.
With "Divide tool" you mean the Pathfinder Divide?
You could check out the precision settings from the panel menu (Options). Set them up, then apply the pathfinder.
And please show us the outline view of the "Before" situation.

Hi @LA83755289,
We are sorry to hear about the trouble. Would you mind trying resetting Illustrator preferences? If that doesn't help, would you mind sharing a few details along with the one asked by Monika:
We are here to help. We just need more info.
Thanks & regards,
