Hi there, Thanks for getting back to me. I re-downloaded version 28.7.5 of 2025 Illustrator and I haven't experienced the issue since. Potentially something with the latest version? I did also try new Beta version and same issue - I took some screenshots when it was happening but note, it was happening on 2025 too. Unfortunately, I lost a lot of work when the bug occured so I'm hestitant to replicate again. Image 1 shows how the image has disappeared - You can still see a line of what the image was at the top. Image 2 shows when I'm in Outline View (command + Y) and can see that the image sillhouette is there and I can select it but when I leave Outline View the image is still gone/empty. The link on the link panel also showed as empty - Sorry I didn't get a screenshot. Please let me know what you think could be the issue!

I totally forgot where it was. I keep forgetting actually. Perhaps it was at a different spot before. Still think its location is weird. It should be under transform, i think. Because when you use "Use Bounding Box", the width and height change. Its perhaps debatable

Thank you. I didn't used to have an issue with simulating the page color until this week. And my coworker isn't having the same issue as I am. I assumed I had something clicked incorrectly.

Although, for us users, in practice it makes no difference whether the problem is in PS or AI, I understand that for Adobe, it makes sense to know exactly which application the problem is in. I believed it was in Illustrator because the problem appears in both the current version of PS and in the latest versions of PS Beta. But if returning to an older version of PS fixed the problem, then it is safe to say that the problem is in Photoshop. Thanks for your clarification, Ton.

Hello @Athira._K.Suresh9248, Would you mind sharing more details, like the version of the OS/Illustrator, if Illustrator behaves this way with all files or when working with files from a specific folder and a small screen recording of the problem, so I can investigate this further? Looking forward to hearing from you. Anubhav

For turning a photo or text into a Halftone tone pattern, vector dots. Many ways. Ton gave you one way. Fast forward….., now you want to turn the various size dots (Circles) into triangles. Scripts is definitely the way to go. I first created a Symbol. Here I tested 3 scripts. All worked Special thank you and praise to Illustrator Script writers. K

I have this same issue regardless of the contents. No rotated rectangles or clipping paths. Gets a bit tedious when working with dozens of art files in an identity kit that need to be on sized artboards.

I don't see the option anymore neither. Even in the steps described above here, second screenshot for instance, I don't get the option. Even resetting all my preferences, caches etc. didnt' make ik work. Im working with the 29.3.1 version of Illustrator.

Do you check the Apply to All checkbox and click Replace when opening the file?

How much are you zoomed in? Does switching to CPU Preview help? Cmd E or Ctrl E

Hendy,
1) I believe this answer from Bobby may give a glimpse of what is needed to ensure clear text (and other artwork) and how print based advice can go against it,
https://community.adobe.com/t5/illustrator-discussions/pixelated-linked-files-after-exporting-for-screens/m-p/14503451#M401887
2) PNG24 gives you a full set of colours, just like JPEG, where as PNG8 gives you a limited set of 256 colours, the same as GIF, just as Monika said. So no reason to consider it (for decades).
It is quite simple to multiply 8 times, or 16, times, or whichever number, with the Save for Web just by multiplying (*8 or *16 or whichever number) in the Image Size window.
3) You can see more about it here, under Import, export, and save,
https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/user-guide.html/illustrator/using/default-keyboard-shortcuts.html
and you can also look at some of the other subjects.

It's 2025 and the bug still here. I'm using Illustrator v29.3.1 (64 bit). Why is so hard to fix such a simple bug? The "Export for screens" is ignoring the "Smooth Edges" setting in the JPG. This used to work a few versions ago. This is not a DPI or file size/resolution! Illustrator is not applying the correct algorithym to smooth the edges of the images!

Hi friends, I tried another way. And worked! (my artboard is 5,2 meters x 3 meters ) 1- in ilustrator export the file to JPG CMYK (I tried TIFF but didn't work) 2 - open the JPG in photoshop 3- export to PDF photoshop X1-A (without PSD editing capabilities). Hope to helped someone.
