I used a country randomiser to pick a country to base the theme of the background on. Yemen was picked. I found through my quick research, Yemen is known for coffee and the Khat plant. I coloured the leaves in the colour of the Yemen flag.

Can someone please tell me, does adobe illustrator AI generator work on iPad Pro 🤷‍♀️

We bought a new computer for an employee, installed Windows 11 and Ai 2024. The fonts we use are stored on the share. I downloaded and installed the fonts in windows. But now when she opens the files, the desired font is not used and the font name has asterisk next to it.

These are the same fonts that the rest of the staff use and that she used on her old computer. What could be the problem?

i drew something in fresco using a vector brush and imported it into illustrator. when i try to use the draw inside function to use my stipple brush to add detail, the stroke doesn't appear... i tried to create a compound path out of the vector drawing but the same thing happens?? i'm not sure if i'm explaining this correctly?? when i move the layer above the clipping mask, the stroke obviously appears outside the lines of the original drawing. anyone have any ideas??

you can see the path here but it's not showing up, it's behind

So I was doing a lesson for my intro to illustrator class and it asked me to shift drag during a editing clipping mask step but every time I went to shift drag it wouldn't drag. It would deselect it and take it out of editing mode. But if I clicked then hit shift it would move....clicking then hitting shift isn't the same as shift drag right?

Sorry just trying to understand what I'm trying to learning. Thank you all in advance!

I'm a Student at a school that has a whole subject dedicated to illustrator, I do NOT think i'm the best at it, but I have good grades and actually enjoy learning how to design, the thing is some of my classmates do not like designing, and ask me to do the things for them, they told me they would give me money, but I wasn't actually going to ask them for that, but my family says I should do, and I don't want to overprice!

She wants me to do this work for her

This was not a work but a thing I did bc I was bored

My first desing for that class!

My second design... I dont really like it, the hands ruin it... I Drew them myself btw

Looking for help to create the grey lines inside the text either in illustrator or photoshop without using the pen tool to mimic it.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I’m working on a logo for my friends company and trying to decide what to do with the text. I’m always bad with text placement and design. Any ideas or suggestions would be great.

I have a client who needs a logo for a women-focused conference called WOW (Women of Worth). They are looking for a design similar to this example. Could you please point me in the right direction?

I work more with wordmark logos not much of this style.

I’m dumbass and didn’t save as i went. It froze with the object screen drop down and has been stuck for 45 minutes. If i force quit will it ask if i want to save?

Update-

huge thanks to everyone who gave some advice or words of encouragement! I’ve only used Illustrator the past 2 months in the most ELEMENTARY class for it. I don’t know $hit about it and have only been using the pen tool. Very very basic. I’ve only worked on papers up until taking this and MS Word is way different and this has been a learning curve. So much appreciation to you who took the time to help. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

After 2 hours i had no choice but force quit- and the universe was took pity on me and everything was saved 🌞🌞🌞

Hi- I've got a design with multiple layers.

I have a rectangle text box that I want to be "clear" so that the black cloth the design is printed on shows though.

I currently have a black fill to "mask" the artwork layers underneath, but I don't want to have them print black ink on black cloth.

I know how to use clipping paths to hide artwork outside the path, but I can't figure out how to mask the artwork without a fill color.

Thanks in advance for any advice.

I want to add strokes but the curved lines I used to get the swooping effect are making my life ridiculously difficult

I literally tried everything and I app wont give the ability to use live bucket too. Please help me asap

I've been using a M2 Max Mac Studio 32GB RAM for about 6 months now at work. My biggest issue I experience is that whenever I do even the most basic functions it take 5-15 second to process. I'm talking grouping, ungrouping, selecting objects, moving objects, etc.. Sometimes I can see the little x cursor that will say anchor or path next to it cycle thru objects and move around as illustrators tries to process my action. I did not have this issue when I was using an intel mac.

I have done extensive searching on trying find solutions; conflicting third-party apps like rectangle or magnet, working from internal storage vs network storage, making a new administrator account on the Mac and any other solution I could find. I've tried everything. Unless I'm missing something, I've tried everything.

I have read things that have said that Adobe has not properly optimized apps for modern hardware and I've come to the conclusion that that is the problem. Not surprised as Adobe doesn't listen to it customers anyways. I hate adobe just as much as any other designer who's forced to use it. Anyone else having a similar experience?

As can be seen in the video link, I'm trying to reduce the size of the pattern while transforming it and certain paths start disappear, yet when I do it outside of the pattern it works perfectly.

 Any thoughts on why could it occur?

Hey guys! I have a super old macbook that’s ready to explode any minute now if I open illustrator again hahaha I’m not tech savvy in the slightest, what laptop (preferably not too expensive) would you recommend I get? I’d only use it for work ie illustrator, photoshop and clo3d. Sorry if this is the wrong sub I didnt know where else to ask! :)

I have a lot of shapes, and can't have any gaps. But those pink smart guides keep overriding the intersection guidelines, so I have to zoom in really far to get around that. Is there a way to turn off one but not the other?

I'm trying to get the design in different shapes like it's in this circle. I did the circle with the polar grid in Illustrator, but I need to figure out how to do it on other shapes other than going around and reducing the line each time. I'm trying to create some templates for Rhinestones. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

How do I create bottom effect while maintaining the checkered pattern? When I try minus front it removes everything but one white parallelogram and the other pathfinder tools create other unwanted effects.
