Page Layout Management in Bridge for InDesign Files
It would be extremely beneficial to have a feature in Bridge that can interact with InDesign files, allowing for the visualization of individual pages directly within the Bridge interface. Furthermore, the ability to compose an overall layout for a magazine or book from separate pages in Bridge, or another similar software, would significantly improve the workflow for many users.
This feature could save us countless hours, improve collaboration between teams, and potentially revolutionize the way we create composite pieces.
I look forward to hearing from you on this suggestion.

Let hyperlinks open in a new tab.
I was trying to work out how to set InDesign hyperlinks to open a new tab in a browser. I have learned this is not a feature that is in InDesign.

If Adobe could do a spreadsheet application
This is not a specific feature request, but more a general idea about Adobe doing a spreadsheet application.
Think about using functionality in Illustrator and InDesignTo be able to draw new sheets in threaded “Spreadsheet boxes” and “Cell boxes”, using layers for calculations/functions/data as well as text/graphic assets, writing functions and formulas in native language, using any graphics assets for conditional formatting and diagrams, place files in InDesign with full compatibility, advanced text formatting in Text Boxes nested with “Spreadsheet boxes”, tear-away panels.
Just some initial thoughts....1 vote -
PLEASE give us a HISTORY panel in InDesign
It would make life so much easier for us to have a HISTORY panel. Photoshop does a fabulous job with this and I sorely miss it in InDesign. Yes, I know I can CTRL/Z, but the problem with that is that this is difficult to negotiate on a long document with many changing elements. It is very hard to remember just where I changed a style, or exactly which changes InDesign is making with each CTRL/Z. It is also very time consuming and it would really be a huge help with my workflow and save me a lot of time…

Make PNG/JPG Exports Background Tasks
As the topic says... having the export of PNG/JPG files as a background task would be extremely helpful for those of us working in comics and doing high volumes of rendering work.
Likewise, making this a multithreaded/parallel process for speed and efficiency would also be highly appreciated.

Disable Launch Image
I do not think the launch images in photoshop, indesign and illustrator are culturally sensitive. They should not include any people especially not raunchy females. They should be totally neutral - landscapes, nature, no people please!!13 votes -
Integrate Adobe Express/Canva-like features into Indesign
So Adobe Indesign has some BASIC animations and I feel this is a completely missed opportunity on Adobe's behalf. Apps like Canva have been spreading like wildfire for years and while Adobe has released Express it is a poor cousin. The idea behind Express/Canva is to have an easy-to-create, templated video/animated solution for social media (which let's face it, is mostly video now), yet as a very heavy InDesign user I should be able to animate and export these animations while also taking advantage of the powerful mail merge (text, images, and it really needs to also have swatches), bulk…

Better use of tags to create a barrier-free PDF with InDesign
Hello Adobe InDesign Team
for accessibility I have to use TAGs in PDFs. I creat my PDF out of InDesign and InDesign has already some features to add TAGs and structure to a PDF when exported but some features are buggy or incomplete so the PDF has to be revised manually, which is a big disadvantage especially when there are changes in the original InDesign file later.
So here some of the most imported things I would changes to make this process easier.
Add PDF/UA-1
A barrier-free PDF need the PDF/UA-1 Note in the XMP-Metadata. I can only be done…

InDesign App for Ipad
We want an app version of InDesign for the iPad. It’s time.
Now that Ipad has the same M processor as computers and more and more people/colleagues who work on the move are choosing the Ipad solution. Possibly with the ability to access files directly from an external drive (usb-c is now standard on Ipad too) and not just through the cloud.
When we travel there is not always the possibility of having access to an internet network. Adobe competitors are giving alternative solutions to InDesign for Ipad. With what we pay for the subscription, I believe you have to…1 vote -
Add color to alpha option for linked images
I would like to be able to set the white background of a black and white UPC png to transparent. Using a clipping path does not work very well with UPCs as it either clips off some of the bars or leaves some white space around the numbers.
I don't see how it would be too difficult to define a color as transparent for a linked graphic to make it not necessary to edit the original graphic.

Interactive PDF Previews
I would LOVE the ability to preview my interactive PDF without having to export it every time I make an edit to a fillable text box or radio button. Can we preview the interactive features in InDesign, and not just in Acrobat?

Export JPG with specific name and as a background task
Now that many users are using INDD to prepare web graphics INDD needs a feature to be able to name the page so when the pages are exported as JPGs or PNGs they are named properly.
I found a script to do this but it would be great to build this into the application. All that would be needed is a variable where we could add the name and INDD would look at that text frame to name the exported files.
This is important to do it this way so this can be a feature of data merge as well.…

Enlarge maximum image export sizes
I work for a company which uses InDesign for webtoon-style comic content. These are often extremely long vertical images (10000-20000px is common). When attempting to export to JPG/PNG for processing, InDesign will not process the larger files, claiming that they exceed the maximum size, even at resolutions as low as 200dpi (webtoons typically go online at 350dpi so these images need to be upscaled).
Exporting to PDF and re-exporting to the relevant image format allows the images to export at size, but often with additional scaling and does not 1:1 match the original pixel size.
This clearly isn't a limit…

Cross-check links used on both ways
Hi, the idea is to be able to check the links that a certain file (let's call file A) is being linked to.
The file A can be used as a link on files 1, 2, 3, 4, 5.... so when I open file 1 and go to the links panels I can see my file A listed there. Right? But not the other way around, such as we can't see the files (1,2,3...) in which that one file (file A) is linked to unless we go one by one (1,2,3...). Would be great to have a link to and…

Please add database publishing feature
InDesign has become a powerful DTP-application but one feature is missing. Please add support for real database publshing (catalogs etc.). This feature would make thrid-party plugins like inCatalog or inData obsolet..
Database-Publshing should be a feature of the core..1 vote
