CJK and Arabic Toolsets
I frequently have to typeset Japanese, Chinese and Arabic, and it's very unfortunate the interfaces for the language tools cannot all be included in the same version.
My understanding is that every version of the software is identical under the hood, and there's a simple hidden parameter that enables the different language tools after a reboot, but it would allow for a much smoother workflow if this could be done within the software. For example, under Workspaces have the option to choose workspaces that use a different language toolset, with a reboot required if necessary. Can this be addressed in…

add the ability to move from the type tool to the move tool with a right click or hold down a key
switching from type tool to the move tool while your cursor is inside a text box can't be done by simply pressing the v key because it will put a v in the copy you are working with. Currently the solve is 1) push escape, then the v key-a real pain 2) click off the text box that you are working on, push the v key, go back to the text box and click on it to move it-slightly inconvenient.
So would it make sense to have a right click with the move (V) tool at the very top of…

Font Menu Management
Need a way for end-users to control which fonts appear in the font menu. We don't need, or want, all the Mac OS system fonts to appear in our InDesign font menu, but there is currently no way to remove them from the list. While we can sort by Favorites, this would mean we'd need to go through and mark all our corporate fonts as Favorites in order to only display them. With Apple no longer allowing removal of System fonts, application font menus are getting totally out of control. Allowing control of what is displayed from within the application…

PDF comments: see/keep local formatting
I’m missing two things. First, the PDF Comments panel menu doesn’t display local formatting (italic, bold, bold italic) whereas these are visible in Acrobat. Second and most important, when accepting a comment, any local formatting doesn’t translate into InDesign. As if the whole content is treated as plain text.

HOW TO FIX BLOCKED VPN BY WEBROOT?
Webroot is amongst the best antivirus software out there. It is used by millions of consumers across the world. Sometimes users report several issues like VPN is blocked by Webroot antivirus.
Once Webroot blocks the VPN, then it will restrict you from making a VPN connection. There are many antivirus programs available in the market, and most of them come with smart VPN services while others are overprotective, like Webroot. They block VPN connections that create issues for the users.

Kerning Tables
Can you please build in the ability to export a kerning table for a font that I have manually kerned so I can use it again and keep adding to it as new combinations come up. This is something that is really restrictive for the Typographers amongst us and one of the things that is still really missed from the Quark days. I appreciate your general optical setting but it's really only a start point for fine tuning.

The possibility to add a shortcut to "None" under Text format
It would be so beneficial to be able to remove any text formatting via shortcut, when all the others text formats are accessible via shortcuts already.
Use these shortcuts all the time, but every time I need to remove a format, I have to avert from the usual workflow.

smart tabs
Suppose I have a document with a table laid out in it. I don't want to use a table, instead I go to a tabbed list so I can save some space. What I would want is the option to left justify the first column, right justify the last column, and distribute the other columns so that each tab has the exact same width in that row without having to manually space them out.

Conditional Text Shortcut
There are lots of Conditional Text requests, but simply the ability to assign keyboard shortcuts to text conditions would be a huge time saver!

Toggle between Text Tool and Selection Tool
I am guessing most users' experience is like mine: I am constantly going back and forth between the Text tool (working within a text block) and the Selection tool (to select/move a text block handle, or reach for something else). It's something I do dozens of times an hour during a work session. Pagemaker used to have a toggle between these two tools, which was easily accessible to the non-mousing hand: Command-Spacebar. I would urge the development of this toggle in future InDesign releases.
I know you can activate the Selection tool with the Escape key, but that's a long…
2 votesWhen you have the Text Tool selected & working inside a Text Frame (cursor blinking inside the text frame), you can hold down the Cmd key. When you do that, you will immediately see the 9-points of the text frame getting highlighted, letting you Move the Text Frame by holding down on the edges with the mouse. You can resize using of the 9-points as well.
Hope this helps. See the attached demo. -

Find/Replace working with number series
I am working with a document containing thousands of serial numbers. I want to insert a hyphen i the middle of each number using "find and replace"
The challenge is to replace all serial numbers in the document that look like this: Mxxxxxxxxxx with this Mxxxx-xxxxxx
Using find/replace with jokers, i am able to find all serial numbers that i want to change. M^9^9^9^9 but when i want to replace them and insert a – by typing this, M^9^9^9^9–, the old numbers disappear.
It results in the following example:
M6015803710 ––> M^9^9^9^9-803710
Instead of:
M6015803710 ––> M6015-803710Thanks!

Text box
Instead of having to click and dragging to make a text box you should be able to click just once to create a text box, like in illustrator.
