You probably have a problem with Wasatch and not with Illustrator?
Which settings do you apply to the JPEG export and then to the PNG export?
Can't you work with the PNG? Quality is better anyway.

Then you can apply an opacity mask to the grid.
Make a black to white gradient in a rectangle and select grid and gradient and in the transparency panel hit "Make Mask"

And the grid consists of lines? Or are there rectangles? Please show what's in the layers panel.

Good luck with that.
Really.
Is this autotraced? Did you check "Group" before expanding it? Then you might be a little lucky and probably have it grouped at least somewhat sensibly.
If there is no structure in it, you will need to first select the things that belong to together and group them. The lasso tool might or might not help. The magic wand might or might not help.
It will get finicky.

Should each block have a uniform color?
Or would just fading be OK?
For them to fade you could apply an opacity mask. That will make the thing transparent.

There is no "local autosave".
There is a recovery function, which is not the same.
Apart from that: if a crash happens while saving, then the file is most probably toast in any case. So while all these things should be used and turned on, the only thing that is safe is saving files often and making additional backup copies. No system ever will reliably save your files automatically.

Nope. They are not. Apply is just paranoid and found the worst wording in the world.
The popup just tells you that Illustrator has the permission to record. Not that they are doing it. Why is Apple doing that? Because they like it when people post in this forum. They only do not like when you are asking them.
This forum is 95% volunteers. Unless people are marked as staff, they do not work for Adobe.
What you can do:
Turn off the permission in your system. The eyedropper functionality will then be limited.

Hi! Any solution here? I am having the same issue. It is happening with Illutrator and Photoshop.

Which effect is it?
What are the computer specifications?

Weil es bei sehr vielen, sehr kleinen Werten bekannt ist.
Ich kann das reproduzieren, ändern lässt es sich nicht.

Ob bei den Diagrammen in nächster Zeit viel Verbesserung zu erwarten ist, ist eine andere Frage.

Those files are located on the desktop?
And Get Info in the Finder shows the correct date?
Did you already reboot the computer and reset the Illustrator preferences? This will erase all your settings.

So you want to generate artwork?
Your version should have that in File > Text to Vector graphic.
If it doesn't: which region are you in? A couple of regions in the world cannot use it.

I'm asking whether you are looking for the generative AI or just want to outline text? Or something else?
Your version is not the latest one.

I believe you. But still Illustrator saves this information in its files. You know: I'm not responsible for it. I'm only telling you. Like 95% of people here I'm not even staff.
Experience in this forum has shown that installing a PDF printer helps with this kind of problems.
Yesterday another user installed the previous Illustrator version and this solved the problem. Without anyone logging into your system and going through the details this probably cannot be solved.
@Anubhav M can you please take a look at this?

Easiest would be to use the plugin Phantasm (not for free)
But using scripts you can do it with other shapes as well: https://youtu.be/IwOMpdO_5Mk
This makes squares. In order to do rectangles you would need the FindReplace script by Nathaniel Kelso.

To work around it, you probably would need to separate stroke from fill and put the stroke on paths that are not compound.

If this is happening when opening or saving files, I would check the printer settings.
Illustrator is looking for a printer resp. the specified printer (this information is inside the file) and if it cannot find it, then it acts up.
Also: are all your fonts OK?

Not having a default printer set up can be the very core of the issue.
Illustrator searches for a printer when opening and when saving files. If it cannot find any, it acts upo.
