Maybe you could show the artwork before and after? The Merge command should not change stuff when all paths are outlined

So how do I edit the text of an image then? It's October now, where is this new Un-outline tool? By @Cary5CA0 Open the image in Acrobat and just copy the text.

These are public forums and everyone can contribute and if someone doesn't favor what someone else is posting, then they will discuss about it. And as long as everyone keeps it according to the rules, then there is nothing objectionable about it. If you have feature requests, you might want to post them over there: https://illustrator.uservoice.com That is where the engineers read your requests. In this forum everyone will just discuss what you are writing.

If you are referring to the way a lot of these clipboard extensions do it: no. And if you use a clipboard extension (system plugin), then most probably Illustrator will give you a lot of issues.

Monika Gause · ‎Oct 14, 2025

It's a live paint object. You need to expand the live paint and then hit "Merge" in the Pathfinder panel. Merge is in the bottom row, not to be confused with Unite.

Can you possibly share the jsx file?

Monika Gause · ‎Oct 13, 2025

you are comparing 2 applications that have been developed 20 years apart. They have a completely different code base and a different paradigm. Illustrator is not a frame based application.

Monika Gause · ‎Oct 13, 2025

WHen you apply the crop, then it cuts off the cropped areas permanentsl. Is that what you refer to? Or are you referring to the part of the image that it automatically selects for cropping? That can be turned off in the preferences by turning off the Content Aware defaults.

Monika Gause · ‎Oct 13, 2025

You really need to work with the actual Appearance panel instead of the Properties panel. Here's how targeting works: https://youtu.be/jMDpnI5i7M0 Here's how the Appearance panel works: https://youtu.be/zXvRbN03MzQ Here's what's happening when things go wrong: https://youtu.be/YZooJyG2UT4

I have yet to see an option that would handle this artwork automatically.

Monika Gause · ‎Oct 13, 2025

Looks like you want to place a looooooot of images. Illustrator is probably not the right tool for your task - maybe use InDesign. And I do not understand the point about "resetting the crop every time you use it". Can you elaborate?

Monika Gause · ‎Oct 12, 2025

So probably the font base engineers should contact the Illustrator engineers about the issue instead of just poking around? Maybe join the prerelease group?

Monika Gause · ‎Oct 10, 2025

The output is raster based. It uses raytracing for rendering, which is inherently raster based. Only when you force it to, it can output vector objects, but then they do not have materials.

Monika Gause · ‎Oct 10, 2025

Most probably Firefly is unable to recognize any figure whatsoever in your artwork. Maybe you can show the artwork?

Monika Gause · ‎Oct 10, 2025

That is pathtext. You need to make the path longer.

Monika Gause · ‎Oct 10, 2025

That was my thought yesterday, but then I tried and couldn't find it. Do you have guidance on how to do it there?

Monika Gause · ‎Oct 09, 2025

Good to hear. If this is happening repeatedly in other documents and after rebooting the computer, probably report it as a bug.

Monika Gause · ‎Oct 09, 2025

I don't think I understand what you are doing. You have to select the text object with the selection tool in order to outline text. Is that the case? ALso: if Outline text does not work how about Object > Flatten transparency (check Outline text)?

Monika Gause · ‎Oct 09, 2025

LOL! What a total joke... this is obviously a licensing issue that Adobe doesn't want to have to deal with. By @christopher_0300 And what kind of licensing issue could that be? If you want to do OCR there are options: - download version 2024 (and then the Retype module - I could still do that a couple of weeks ago) - use Acrobat (it will even give you a couple of paragraphs, not just single words) - use Apple Preview if you are on a Mac (even works inside QuickLook)

Monika Gause · ‎Oct 09, 2025

You could make your text into an art brush. This will also distort the text. Undistorted it works like this: https://youtu.be/qtPlFS67Mk8

Monika Gause · ‎Oct 09, 2025

Ja, genau. Das Creative Cloud Standard-Abo hat nur die Firefly-Grundfunktionen.

Monika Gause · ‎Oct 09, 2025

Firefly generiert keine Videos von Kindern oder von Personen, die es für Kinder hält. Außerdem: Nackheit. Ich kann nicht erkennen, was das in dem Frame ist, aber es könnte als Kind interpretiert werden. Und dass Frankfurter Würstchen wie Beine beim Sonnenbaden aussehen, ist ja ein weit verbreitetes Meme.

Monika Gause · ‎Oct 09, 2025

Der Post war anfangs im Illustrator-Forum. Die Partner-Modelle stehen nur in entsprechenden Abos zur Verfügung. Welches Abo hast Du? https://www.adobe.com/de/products/firefly/plans.html

Monika Gause · ‎Oct 08, 2025

Did you set up the Illustrator file with the blend exactly like in my video?

Monika Gause · ‎Oct 08, 2025

I would post this to https://illustrator.uservoice.com to get it to the engineers' attention.

Monika Gause · ‎Oct 08, 2025

3D and Materials will probably not be able to do this at all, because it always distorts everything badly. You might need to prepare your files elsewhere.

Monika Gause · ‎Oct 08, 2025

There is a looooong list of third party applications that interfere with the clipboard. DO you have any of these? Parallels Toolbox running with the Clipboard History LogoTech Keyboard management software TeamVewer Clipboard > Use Shared Clipboard Apple iOS device simulator from Xcode Windows Multi-clipboard Windows Clipboard History Clippy Chrome Remote Desktop Mouse Pointer Highlighter AnyViewer Pastebot app Overzealous antivirus (Digital Guardian) as well as viruses that empty the clipboard Vector Magic

Monika Gause · ‎Oct 08, 2025

Das Bearbeiten von Grafik per Konversation ist noch nicht in Illustrator implementiert.

Monika Gause · ‎Oct 08, 2025

There is one plugin that allows you to script stuff via a conversational interface: MATE https://www.omata.io/mate But I don't think I understand what you are trying to do. Maybe post examples? The A.I. built into Illustrator creates artwork.

Monika Gause · ‎Oct 07, 2025

I don't even know where to click in that one. Please embed your GIF in your post in this community. Thank you.
