Make 'Character Style' have bullet options
It would be useful to be able to define bullets as part of a character style, rather than a separate paragraph style.
Often, bullet paragraphs only differ from the body text by the addition of a bullet and the associated indent.
Being able to define bullets as a character attribute, rather than a paragraph style, would allow more flexibility with the new options concerning consecutive paragraphs of the same style (borders, spacing).
If I have a paragraph of text and then a couple of paragraphs of bullets, but the bullets were defined by a character style I could have a…

Numerazione automatica
Bisognerebbe implementare la numerazione automatica delle pagine, potendo scegliere se applicare numeri pagine pari o dispari.
Questa esigenza viene dal fatto che, quando si hanno due file di numero uguale di pagine ed un file è il fronte e l'altro è il retro. Per comodità di lavorazione i file di bianca e volta vengono realizzati separatamente e poi montati su file di stampa. La numerazione pari o dispari potrebbe venire scelta al momento della creazione del file oppure nella sezione di inserimento testo. Allego ipotetiche immagini.1 vote -
Convert hidden hyperlink destinations to endnotes?
I want to create, from an InDesign file, a list of the hyperlink destinations, and at the same time create footnote callouts in the text after each word that is formatted as a hyperlink. I want to format the normally invisible hyperlink destinations as endnotes. Possible?

Lock text passages e.g. legal texts
We have a lot of texts for legal reasons in our sales brochure. Like somewhere in between. Now we have a workaround to put these texts at the end of a page at the same spot in every brochure but while editing it often happens that e.g. by accident parts of the texts get erased.
It would be so helpful to lock important parts of the text but keep them in the whole text "fluently" at the same time. It doesnt matter where the text is but it has to be there.
I hope I described my request clearly enough...…4 votes -
Add a counter symbol similar to the "current page number" marker.
It would be very useful to be able to insert a special character (similar to the "current page number" marker) that makes a digit counter, starting with 1 and then iterating upwards for each time it's inserted.
I know there's a workaround to sort of do this with numbered lists, but that's very limited, especially if you want the counter anywhere except the beginning of a paragraph.
I'm currently working a book that has many images with captions, that ends with the number of the image, like this: "Lorem ipsum dolor… [15]". If "15" where a simple character that counted upwards…

Allow character style to affect tab leaders
I applied a tab leader in my paragraph style in order to force dots to appear between my text and page number in my table of contents. However, there is no way to style those leaders. InDesign manual says: To change the font or other formatting of the tab leader, select the tab character in the text frame, and use the Character panel or Type menu to apply formatting.
This is fine except when you have a really long table of contents and want to format each tab leader. I chose a smaller dot by choosing a light font and…

Arabic Composite fonts
I know that at the moment is possible to use composite fonts for CJK languages but not for Arabic and Hebrew.
Do you think that could be possible to improve?This is the issue that I had:

Make Single Line Composer the default selection, please
Every time I receive a layout from my designers, I have to highlight and change every single block of text on it from Adobe Paragraph Composer (the work of the devil) to the controllable sanity of Single Line Composer. Who in their right mind wants the computer to be reflowing text that they have already edited?

Fill with Placeholder Text dynamically changes when resizing box
When a box has been filled with Placeholder Text and is then resized, it would be really useful if the text still fills the box.
So if you make the box larger, more text would be added to still fill the box. If you make the box smaller, text would be removed so the box is still filled but not overset.

column lines
Auto column lines for text boxes.
Lines between columns, with varying widths, colours, styles (single, double etc, dots/dashes etc). Same options available for the outer box key line.. All can be individually adjusted, switched off etc.
And different colours for column backgrounds, with offsets. Like alternating fills work in tables, but in normal text boxes. Allow unique colours for each column fillplus transparency/mode options.

Scale the Find Font Box
Can you make the 'find font' window scaleable please! Across Indesign and Illustrator. It is so annoying to not be able to enlarge the missing fonts box to see all the fonts that are missing at once. Particularly when you have to jump between Suitcase.
If it could also indicate what foundry type of font is missing (Open type or Postscript) etc then that would mean NOT having to guess which type of font needs to open.
