Adobe Community Bug - Unable to upload .ai files from Illustrator

[Cole33399348icgg]

When attempting to upload a .ai file alongside a post, it gives an error that the file extension does not match the content, and the file is automatically deleted. The file used was last saved in Adobe Illustrator v28.5, on the latest update as of this post's creation.

there's no file (other than bitmaps) attachment option for adobe forums.  what are you seeing that makes you think threre is?

When making a post, this is at the bottom. If this isn't an option to attach files, what is it?

photo attachment.

[kglad]

but don't attach photos.  it's a lot easier for readers of your post if you copy your image and paste it into a message.

Upload the file to a file sharing service like Dropbox and post a link to the file.

Attach a screenshot in .jpg, .gif, or .png file type.
