Wow!  I just gave this Vectorizer AI tool a try and the result was unbelievably good.  I vectorized an image that has small text with serifs.  I wouldn't have to make any tweaks on that result.  I can't believe it accurately drew all those tiny serifs.  Illustrator has no chance of getting a result like that on small text.  The recent updates to Adobe tracing were not improvements in quality. Just other features.  It needs quality improvements, but I didn't even imagine this level of quality. ... View more

Забыл сообщить, что система у меня Windows 10. И да, при каждом обновлении Illustrator, папку надо заново переименовать. Работаю с этим решением уже неделю, испытал на двух версиях Illustrator. Не знаю какая связь от переименования этой папки с работой буфера обмена, но она есть. Во всяком случае на моей системе. При этом тоже использую паралельно Vector Magic и Microsoft Office. Vector Magic все-таки лучше закрыть при работе в Illustrator. ... View more

Hello @Kuttyjoe, Sorry to hear the suggestions did not help. Would you mind trying to run Illustrator under a different administrator account (Windows / macOS) and checking if it helps? Looking forward to hearing from you.   Anubhav ... View more

Implementation is actually really annoying as it is not possible to turn it of. Eery new layer brings it back. It makes it hard to simply compare layers as the blue frame overlays and confuses. Un-checking the layer option seems to be buggy as it has no effect. Badly implemented new features like that do NOT make designers live easier, pls be more carfully when changing the user behaviour. Btw: Mac Sonoma, PS 2025 Regards, Joachim ... View more

One of the broken links points to ucrtbase.dll. This can happen when there are corrupted VC++ files.  Please head here and follow the step I've shared: https://community.adobe.com/t5/lightroom-ecosystem-cloud-based-discussions/p-lightroom-launch-mfc140u-dll-missing-file-on-windows/td-p/13626463   Let me know how it goes.

I'm sure that has to be very annoying. Have you been seeing this issue just with the version 28.1 build or has it been going on longer? Have you tried resetting Illustrator's preferences file? Also make sure your graphics board's driver is up to date. Do you know if the glitch occurs in both GPU and CPU preview modes? ... View more

No. No special mouse driver, keyboard settings, and no langswitcher app.  And the problem is instantly resolved by rolling back to Illustrator 28.  The problem started immediately with Illustrator 28.1.  Every single update now comes with new bugs that I can find within minutes of launching the program. ...

Hi @Kuttyjoe,   Thank you for providing detailed info about the issue you're facing in Illustrator. It's concerning to hear that this behavior has persisted for quite some time despite various attempts to address it.   Considering the steps you've already taken, I would recommend trying the following: If feasible, try updating your operating system to Windows 11 and check if the issue persists. Sometimes, older user profiles get corrupted and get fixed when recreated with the latest major OS updates. Confirm that there are no conflicting plugins or third-party extensions causing the problem. Temporarily disable all plugins and see if the issue persists. Try running Illustrator on a different user account on your computer to check if the problem is user-specific. Share a sample file where the issue occurs. This can help in investigating the problem more effectively.   Also, please share the screenshot of the color settings.   Feel free to share any additional details or observations you might have. Your cooperation in troubleshooting this matter is highly appreciated.   Best regards, Anshul ... View more

I think Adobe have a team of monkeys in charge of development and UX - and I'm not being rude - this can't honestly be the work of humans... It MUST be a team of monkeys! I was unable to do anything with the professional version of Adobe Acrobat so cancelled my subscription to that. Now having to downgrade from Brdige 13 to 12. ... View more

Another thing that is immediately broken in version 13 is when you press Control F for Search.  In all previous versions, it would place the cursor in the criteria field so you immediately type a new search.  In version 13 it places the focus on the new giant blue button to OK the search.  So if you're going to type a new criteria, you have to either use the mouse, or tab 4 or 5 times to place the cursor in the criteria field.  By @Kuttyjoe Hello I know this thread is old but I would like to reiterate the problem with CTRL-F search. Kuttyjoe described it perfectly. Why does the cursor focus on the OK button when you open search, it should focus on the criteria as it has in all previous versions! I too have reverted back to version 12. ... View more

Hello @Kuttyjoe,   We understand that encountering technical issues can be frustrating. The Share for Review window is only supposed to show up for the first few times when trying to save a file. If it continues to show up, kindly try manually deleting the preferences and checking if it helps: - Close all Adobe applications. - Go to Location C:\Users\%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Roaming\Adobe - Rename Adobe Illustrator and Adobe Illustrator 27 Settings folders to Adobe Illustrator.old and Adobe Illustrator - 27 Settings.old - Relaunch Illustrator from Creative Cloud Disclaimer: Please note that renaming preferences folders will remove all the custom settings, and Illustrator will launch with default settings. You can also save a backup of the folders in case you want to. The location is mentioned above.   Looking forward to hearing from you.   Thanks, Anubhav ... View more

Yah. the more I look at it, Illustrator considers those two preferences as separate workflow items. I went back to an old CS6 install and the behaviour is the same. You might want to add a feature request to make a sticky checkbox in future versions. ... View more
