hello community! i need help please.
i always used to save (some) illustrator files as PDF files.
now, when i open a pdf file, all objects are grouped and in clipping masks.
recently even all text fields are filled with numbers and glyphs instead of the text i saved a few hours before (see image)...
thank you in advance!!

Did you check the "Preserve Illustrator Editing Capabilities" checkbox?
Did you open it in the same Illustrator version as it was saved?

thank you for the quick response.
yes - and yes...
because these settings are default i guess, right?
next time i will double check...
Usually the pdf file with "preserve illustrator editing capabilities " turned on is larger than when this feature turned off.
one more note, are you trying to open the pdf file or placing the pdf file into a new document?
