when you have to do it but make a way to have it the most editable way because you have to make it to a lot of different languages. Maybe be a more efficient way with rules on path to automatically inverse it and center it on the center of the path and maybe an option to what part of the text is on one side and what part is on another actually if i do it correctly you often need two path one for top one for bottom part of circular text and when you whant to change one part, it's start to be a nightmare. C4d mograph text option is a great solution.

I would like to see some more feature as described below, so this powerful too will be a step ahead for an Advance Page Layout tool. Here are some of them:

1. Some custom footnotes so can can add daggers and other symbols exactly like MSWord not the current features. This should be like first symbol, then 1, 2, 3 etc.




2. Customizing Text box sequence so it will be more intuitive for numbering figures. Think about I've add 100 of figures numbering text box using numbering features, then at editing page need to rearrange/adding/remove some figures, in this it won't work until rearrange text box. It'll help some kind of features to rearrange text box etc.

In version 14.0.2, we may select any character(s) in a single line adjusting baseline shift variously for each selection of characters. Having made specific baseline shifts, it would be nice to select the desired text and while preserving their relative differing baseline shifts to then globally raise and/or lower the entire line.

Currently, we are not able to do this. The attached shows that if I select the differing baseline shifted characters, InDesign's UI baseline shift incrementer becomes unavailable. I can globally reset the entire line imposing a single shared baseline value via text input, but this does not respect nor preserve the relative positions of baseline shifts made previous. If it were possible to globally raise and/or lower their relative positions perhaps using a character modifier as we used to have in Quark back in the day, it would put InDesign even a little further ahead of the curve. As it stands now, however, I would have the slight chore to break up the enclosing text box into individual lines which will preserve relative character baseline shifts with their relative positions and where I can then move the entire line without affecting them in any way. This is not a huge consideration for something as simple as letterhead but if the selections were more involved involving more text, then this is something a good designer will always reach for.

Ctrl+SHIFT+brackets|semicolon or comma I think may have been the key binding for such an operation in Quark of old. I still remember InDesign 1.0 haha

Thank you, Adobe! You're awesome!

Hi InDesign Team—

The very handy Only Align First Line to Grid feature is essential for building out multiple styles in books and editorial work. However, book designers are in desperate need of a similar feature for text frames, where only the first line in the text frame aligns to the baseline grid. This is essential for building out pages of backmatter, where the text is tighter and does not necessarily align to the baseline grid of the book, but the distance between the head margin and the first baseline should remain the same.

Is such a feature possible, or am I missing something that is already possible in InDesign to prevent these kinds of mis-aligned pages. Currently the only solution is to have multiple masters for different text blocks in the body text and the backmatter, but it seems a simple Align Only First Line of Text Frame would ease a lot of pain.

Thank you,

We have multiple versions of fonts available in our environment (Type1, TT, and access to TypeKit) so having the ability to indicate specific fonts as "Mandatory use from Adobe Fonts/Typekit" would be helpful. In essence, the user wouldn't have to manually activate/deactivate to achieve the correct combination of fonts.
For example, the user may have Proxima Nova family Type 1 active, but the document correctly shows the TypeKit fonts as missing. They then activate their TT family, which also fails. They tend to not think of Typekit as it's not searchable in our font management tool.
Using the Document Fonts folder can help in this arena, but it won't help with AdobeFonts/Typekit fonts, and other issues creep in.
Font mangers, like Extensis Suitcase and FontAgent, don't seem to consistently recognize the availability of an Adobe Font/TypeKit font.

Bring back the Paragraph Direction button/option that was removed in v14.0.1.

I am using Middle East InDesign, with English/Arabic language app option.

I have been informed by Adobe Support that v14.0.1 has removed Paragraph Direction all together. Since I have to work with Arabic frequently, this is VERY disruptive since Arabic is written right to left. It seems that even Change Text Direction has even been removed from the Character window options, so I can't find any possible workaround.

I don't understand how any users that need Right to Left written languages will even be able to use your updated products anymore.

Please restore this feature or a feature that can achieve the same result.
