1. Path elements as Artifact

   To create an accessible PDFs it’s essential to either tag relevant content or mark irrrelevant content as Artifact. In InDesign you can use the object export options to mark an object as “Artefact”.

   So far so good, however any path elements from tables or underlined/strikethrough text are not marked at all. Obviously, those always need to be marked as an Artifact. InDesign should do this automatically during the pdf export process. Please fix that, it’s extremly time consuming to fix that manually in Acrobat.

2. Clear All Style Sets—Right from the Style Set Menu

   Since there are a lot of windows to get to the OpenType Style Sets, we need a button that can clear all the opentype features we've tried out. This can be put into the Stylistic Sets Menu. (See attached picture.)

   This isn't just valuable to me. This is valuable to:
   1. Other users can feel free to use style sets, knowing that they can quickly clear all options, not spend minutes clicking through menus—Just to turn something off!
   2. Font designers might add more features into their fonts if the features are easier to use.
   3. You've already made that opentype feature button when you highlight, thank goodness for that! We just need a better way of clearing the style.
   4. This allows a lot of utility to the end user, but since it's just a simple menu button, with a simple function it won't really take as many man hours to implement.
   5. Your product becomes even more indispensable to type enthusiasts.

   (This can also be implemented in the Opentype Tab of the Character Styles menu.)

   Basically, this will make a lot of more advanced users happy with very limited downside to Adobe. I have attached a picture of how this might look.

   Thanks, Dave

   PS If the above idea is too difficult to implement, here's an even easier one: At the very least, if the menu behavior was different, it would save us a lot of clicking. And it's just this simple thing: Keep up the menu after I or another user click on a style set. That way, we users can choose multiple type options.

   It's that simple.

   This goes for the Entire Menu, once you've clicked on "OpenType."

   Additionally, since the behavior is so subtle, I believe most users won't even know the menu behavior changed, but might just feel like, "Wow, this menu is so much easier to use."

   Easy to implement, a lifesaver for those of us who spend all day clicking through these menus!

3. Changing the backgroung/page colour

   I would very much like to be able to change the background colour in incopy. For example: a green page colour, with a silverish font colour. (the latter can be done already)
   As a writer, I like to work on my own terms. So this would make me love incopy, and not just use it when I need to.

4. Add conditions to Data Merge

   There should be conditions in data merge to include or exclude text based on the data in a record. For example.e consider a set of business cards. Some users might have a Twitter handle or mobile number, some might not. Currently there is no way to omit empty fields and any text that might fo with it, line an "M" and tab to prefix a mobile number and the line break after it. There should be a way to make that text conditional on whether the field is empty or what is in it.

   e.g. IF @mobile<>"",M^t@mobile^p,,)

   If the mobile number is not blank ad M, tab, the mobile number, then a return. If it is blank add nothing.

   e.g. IF @*** ="F",Mrs.,IF @***="M",Mr.,

   If the *** of the record is F insert “Mrs.”. If *** is M insert, "Mr.". If it is neither of those insert nothing.

   This makes cleaning up long merged documents much easier.

6. Export Book: Option to export documents in book as individual PDFs

   When using the book export, it would be wonderful to have the option to export the documents that make up the book as separate PDFs.

   This option would be useful whether exporting the entire book to PDF or exporting selected documents to PDF. Metadata embedded in each document of the book would be included in the export to pdf.

   For example, I currently create a journal using the book function to pull together and organize the separate INDD files for the cover, TOC, and articles. Once the journal is completed, I need to generate the following PDFs:

   1. Entire journal as pdf, two versions: 150 ppi and 300 ppi (easily done with current PDF export)
   2. All journal articles as separate PDFs at 150 ppi for website use
   3. All journal articles as separate PDFs at 300 ppi

   Steps 2 and 3 currently require opening each article and using two different pdf presets to generate the 150 and 300 ppi versions. When there are 20 articles, this becomes quite tedious. The option to export separate article PDFs in a single export action would be an amazing time savings.

7. Cloud working

   A feature for working together on an Indesign document would be great for the year 2019. Similar to Adobe XD Cloud documents, or comparatively like the collaboration of Indesign and Incopy (Check in / Check out) - just cloud based.

   I Just want a solution for a group of Designers working on one project without having the trouble of creating a load of documents.

9. Stop appending the word "folder" to all package folder names

   I really really really hate that I have to waste 8 keystrokes (yes, I count the down-arrow to get to the end of the package name) on every single package I make. At least give me the option to change the default suffix.

10. Diagonal Strikethrough

    An upgrade to the existing strike through option with new settings that allow for diagonal lines. I've added a mockup of the character style options.

    This would be an awesome little update wich has many uses and make the life of a lot of InDesigners easier.

11. Custom/favorite zoom

    Especially when working on a small laptop while traveling, I like to use a couple of zoom levels that are non-standard, and have to keep retyping the percentages in the bottom left of the screen.

    For example, I frequently want to zoom to the width of a page's text frame, not including the margins, which on my current laptop is 100%. That's easy because it corresponds with one of the present zoom levels.

    But I also frequently zoom to show a spread's text frames; I don't want to waste my precious laptop screen space on the margins away from the spine. That's 45% which I have to type in every time. I would be so happy if I could add this as a favorite to the other preset levels.

    "Zoom to page text frame" and "Zoom to spread text frames" would be great additions to the list.

    Thank you.

14. Table of Contents

    Table of Contents styles should be able to take a selected page range, and generate a TOC based on only that page range.

    Many books have multiple TOCs these days — a master TOC up front, and TOCs at the beginning of each chapter or section, and often a hidden TOC that is used to generate PDF bookmarks.

    Being able to limit page ranges would mean less manually edited of generated TOCs, faster TOC generation, and needing to use fewer paragraph/character styles to handle them!

15. Save gradient swatch angles to object style

18. Support Excel's Strict Open XML Spreadsheet format

    InDesign should be able to Place an Excel file that's been saved as a Strict Open XML Spreadsheet (which appears to be a subset of the normal .xlsx workbook format). Currently, attempting to place an Excel file that's been saved as a Strict Open XML Spreadsheet results in a "Cannot place this file. No filter found for requested operation" error.

    A sample Strict Open XML Spreadsheet file is attached.

19. Reset to base for one single parameter of a paragraph/character/etc. style

    I wish there was an easy way to just reset one specific parameter of a style to base ([ignore]).

    For example:
    I have paragraph style p2 which is based on p1. I previously overwrote the Font Style of p2 but now I decided to change it back to inherit the Font Style of its base style (p1). It would be nice to have some way to do that only for the Font Style. Not for the Font Family or Size or any other parameter. Maybe by option–, cmd- or right-clicking on the parameter's name...?

20. Name spreads for export

    When we export as png or other formats from indesign we always have to rename all our exported pages and spreads. Over and over again if we make changes and export again. Why cant we have the option to give a spread or a page a defined name for export. Example, I always have to rename documentname(15) to banner_560x500 and does this on all 15 exports. Please look into it ❤️
