1. Please create the SHARE FOR REVIEW link updateable as a standalone and not linked to just one indesign file.

   Here is what’s happening in my workflow.

   I create an indesign file (file_260729.ind) and share a link to clients for checking.

   Once the client adds their comments, i revise the indesign file and save it as (file_260730.ind) now I NEED to create a new share for review link for clients which makes it confusing for clients to follow especially if you're dealing with a number of clients, each commenting at their own pace.

   I have tried creating just one indesign MASTER file for client to check and just create an indesign copy for myself as archive BUT once i try to update the link, THE LINK ALWAYS END UP with ERRORS and refuses to update. (ARTIFACTS ERROR) it feels like it cannot handle heavy picture laden layouts.

   please create a fix for this. It’s a disruption to the client-creative process. 😓

   TLDR: too many links. just one link is buggy!

2. Ignore hidden pages when creating Share for Review link

   I occasionally keep different versions of a given page hidden in my document in case I need them later. However, when creating a Share for Review link, I have to make sure I delete the hidden pages each time otherwise they will export in the Share for Review preview and confuse my reviewer.

   Can you please add functionality into Share for Review so it will not export any pages that are hidden when creating a share link?

4. Add draft # or suffix to Share for Review

   Just as title says.

   I'm always re-labelling the share for review file manually, but it'd be nice if there was a different option for version control.

   Say the ability to add a suffix that was a drop down option of letter/number like we have when we go to export things and then the ability to also set it to increase automatically or set to change it manually. This field would just add the suffix to the Title name OR be used as a infographic somewhere in the reviewer to show the draft count...

   Could be a little bit of a push for those of us who have clients who abuse the revisions counts haha.

   Thanks!

5. Share for Review Custom Settings

   I haven't used this feature long, but it seems to be lacking features that designers use throughout the review process.

   1. There's no option to use custom PDF settings.
      When my clients are reviewing PDFs, they are expecting to see something that is print or screen ready. They expect the images to look sharp and the colors to be correct. I've developed a number of custom PDF export settings. Everything from including crop marks, how many and which pages to export, export pages as spreads or single pages, include slug to show notes I may have made, customize the amount of image compression, resolution, and how color exports. Unfortunately, I haven't found a way to customize the Share for Review settings so I will probably abandon it's use.

   2. The only way that I've found to export new/updated comps without overwriting the previous version is to save the InDesign file with a new name and export it as a new file.

   3. There's no way to just upload a PDF to the Share for Review section in the Adobe Files. I had to post it to another area and share the link.

7. Invite without sending a notification

   It'd be great to have the ability to invite WITHOUT sending an invitation email. As an enterprise user who has to reach out to many internal departments – we do want multiple eyes on the document, however only at certain times in the process. It would be nice to be able to batch add the permissions to view the document but then not send invites so we can then individually assign tasks for collaboration through the comment system during the design and feedback process.

   If you look at how Google achieves this through sharing permissions it would be similar a small tick box that says "Notify persons/invitees" or whatever.

   Also a side note for Enterprise InDesign our current admin settings are set to "access to all within the domain" but unfortunately Share for Review in InDesign only reflects "invited only" so I have to manually input multiple emails (with a very finicky dialogue box that doesn't retain information if you click away from the screen). The quickest solution to this top problem if it can't be implemented quickly, would be to update InDesigns Share to Review tool like how Adobe Illustrator has the option to drop down and choose from either "access to all within the domain" or "invite to access only"...

   Thanks for your hard work! Looking forward to further improvements for this tool because it's definitely helping with version control.

8. Impossible to copy comments from InDesign Reviews — very inconvenient for workflow

   It is extremely frustrating that comments left in InDesign Reviews (Share for Review) cannot be copied. Often, I need to paste a comment into a search bar, a style name, or simply save it for documentation. Having to manually retype every single comment is a waste of time and increases the risk of errors. Please add the ability to select and copy comment text directly from the Review panel. This is a basic feature that should not be missing.

9. Share for Review with ChatGPT

   Can you allow Share for Review to connect to ChatGPT. I want to share it with ChatGPT and it will proofread it and populate a bunch of edits that I can go through.

   Automated grammar/spellcheck with contextual awareness
   • Visual layout critique suggestions
   • “Tone” analysis for editorial documents
   • Accessibility flagging (e.g., contrast, font sizes)
   • Multilingual proofreading (Hebrew, English, etc.)
   • Brand consistency checks (“Did I use the correct logo spacing or style guide font?”)

10. Option for Share for Review (in browser) to view both resolved and unresolved comments at the same time

    It would be really helpful for users commenting on a Share for Review document in browser to be able to see the resolved and unresolved comments at the same time, as opposed to either one or the other.

    There is repeated confusion from people adding comments which had already been added and resolved. This could be easily fixed by adding an extra 'unresolved' tag within the filter list.

11. Allow Share for Review Comments to be Printed or Exported

    I can't believe you can't print or export comments created during a Shared Review. I had a reviewer ask for her comments to keep as a record for the next round of document updates and there is NO FEATURE in the browser, or InDesign that will allow those comments to be printed, PDF'd, or exported (so I could import them into a PDF for permanent archival).

    This is a HUGE missing feature.

    My company archives all comments from InDesign's Share for Review and in some cases I've had them disappear entirely.

    Adding the ability to print those comments to a PDF or export them to be imported in Acrobat would allow us to permanently archive the feedback without being dependent on a web link that may or may not save those comments in perpetuity.

    As a workaround, I took a screenshot of every page of the document in the browser and placed those back into InDesign, then ran OCR on the exported PDF (so at least it is searchable).

    It seems that it would be logical to add an Export Comments as .fdf option in this panel, or add a "Print Review Comments" button in the InDesign Print dialog.

12. InDesign Review Panel should NOT switch the filter to 'Resolved' when editing text with older resolved comments

    I am often working on documents with multiple review sessions. The problem that occurs since the latest updates of InDesign is that as soon as I put the cursor in a piece of text which previously had a comment attached to it which is resolved, all resolved comments pop up in the comments panel and I cannot see the current comments: all comments are immediately filtered to 'resolved'. Of course I can switch off the filter for resolved comments again, but it switches back again to 'resolved comments' as soon as I start working on the text. This is driving me nuts, because it is not only annoying, it becomes very difficult to work on the unresolved comments and takes up a lot of time. As a work around I now have to open the online document with the current unresolved comments to track down what actually still needs to be resolved. Apparently this is 'as designed', but this is driving designers crazy. Please help!
    More details and screen recordings can be found in this discussion on the Adobe Community: https://community.adobe.com/t5/indesign-discussions/indesign-review-panel-automatically-filters-to-resolved-comments-when-editing-text/td-p/14619901

13. Share for Review - needs added feature

    It would be extremely useful to be able to stop specific reviewers from commenting at a certain point - allowing others to continue. This would allow the wider group in an org. to comment - but then have the ringleader sort through their internal comments, accept them or remove them - then provide me (the designer) with a draft to make my edits from. Right now, people can still comment way after they have been told the commenting time is over.

14. Interactivity, LIVE while using InDesign - Object States and Buttons that work at ANY time - ala AE 'Essential Graphics'

    Interactivity, LIVE while using InDesign - Object States and Buttons that work at ANY time - ala AE 'Essential Graphics'.
    There is the potential for InDesign to be a powerful QC authoring tool in our industry. We apply technical charts over the images which designers have created, like pitch/checker-decks. We need many different aspect ratios but repetition of the overlays and much of the info. We previously had over 90 layers the user would need to make visible or invisible - this is tedious and antithesis of good UX.
    Essential Graphics in AfterEffects is somewhat close to the idea we seek.
    InDesign is ALMOST there with ObjectStates, but these also require layer selection and a chunky workflow.
    Wiring ObjectStates to Buttons and Forms is exciting - but does not work in the ACTUAL INDD DOCUMENT - so it's not a solution.
    There's so many clever ways to solve the problem by building custom control panels with the Interactivity, but none of that function is available INSIDE OF InDesign - and exporting to EPUB/PDF is useless because we need to drop dozens of images into the pages.
    There's a precious chasm that sits between InDesign and XD that could be bridged - find some way of EMPOWERING AUTOMATION, allowing the creation of better/custom UI/UX, which builds better tools for the creators, not just end user product for display.
    This is valuable because it extends the function of InDesign to become more of a tool for making tools for others, rather than just a tool to make static, re-baked product.

16. Add Find or Search in a document Shared for Review from InDesign

    It is critical that reviewers of our white papers are able to use Find or Search in InDesign documents that are Shared for Review to locate terms and phrases used in the InDesign document.

    I can't believe that Command F or Ctrl F doesn't work in documents that are Shared for Review from InDesign. This does work for documents Shared by Acrobat Reader and Acrobat Pro.

    Why is this not an option when commenting on documents shared by InDesign?

    I can use Edit > Find > Find in Google Chrome to search, but it only searches the COMMENTS, not text in the document.

    We need the InDesign sharing feature to password protect the URL for our document, and Acrobat doesn't offer this.

20. Add "insert text at cursor" to Review tools

    Share for Review is great - however why was the "insert text" tool left out of the review tools? I do reviews every day and the 3 most important tools are "delete text", "replace text" and "insert text at cursor" - to know exactly where added text should go. It's part of the PDF commenting tools since forever - why was it left out of this Review function? Please add it, we can't offer this solution to our stakeholders without it.
