  1. UI feels outdated and cluttered

    The UI still feels like it's stuck in 2000.
    It is not free scalable, input fields are to small or resize.
    Using the ui scale option, feels like it did just zoom in.

    Best example: The font size is limited to 4-5 Characters, no way to make it bigger if you want to input some simple math (19,416 Pt * 1,25).

  2. Ability to include anchored objects in paragraph styles

    It would be useful to integrate images into paragraph styles and immediately attach an object style to it. The result would be that by selecting a paragraph style, an image (icon etc.) would be added at the desired location (as set in the object style). This would offer many opportunities to make formatting faster and more efficient.

  3. The hope of developing a new vertical effect of CJk text

    (If you only want to read the core content, please go directly to the end of this article)

    (This document is designated to be delivered to Adobe Japan)

    ————————

    Dear Adobe Japan:

    Thank for your attention and helping. On behalf of my region, I would like to make a request boldly to your company about the new effect of vertical typesetting.

    The existing versions of indesign equipped with CJK typesetter and applicable to East Asia have only one text arrangement direction for vertical text arrangement - the first column inherited is on the right, from right to left from ancient…

  4. LINKS

    When documents lose the link, finding the image or file is a real drag because I can neither copy the text from the link panel nor does it stay open when I open the finder to search for what I can recall from the link window. It would be great if I could right click and it opens a search field with that name in it OR stay open when I open the finder so that I can type the name in accurately.

  6. show the name of the open file in the window name of Tabbed interface

    Tabbed Interface has a Window Title that does not reflect the Document that is in Focus and being worked on. As some time tracking Apps like Rescue Time or Timely are using Window names to log time entries it would be helpful, having a more talkative window name that shows the document name of the tab that is currently in the foreground.

  7. keep "Composite fonts" function, and let user change the interface language directly in the application.

    The latest English version of InDesign 19.0 is no longer compatible with "composite fonts"...
    In Asian countries, the "Composite fonts" function is quite important to most users who keep working with bilingual documents. It gives us a headache always when we need to update the application. Instead of downloading the application in different languages, why not integrate some of the languages, like merging commonly used English and Asian languages? We only need to change the interface language directly in the application, which does not hinder us from using the "Composite font" function. Isn't it better?

  8. Chequeado de obra

    Solicito a los desarrolladores una herramienta que bien se podría llamar "Chequeado de obra". La misma consistiria en una pantalla donde cualquier diseño que tenga más de una página, pueda ser reproducido a la manera de un video. Ese "Player" debería contar velocidades ajustables para mostrar las páginas. ¿Cúal sería el beneficio?. la utilidad de esta herramienta nos permitía cotejar nuestra diagramacion de forma "espacial" donde veríamos que los elementos de cada página tengan un sentido estético a lo largo de toda la obra. Permitiría detectar "saltos" de elementos que no guarden una estética general.

  9. Find all data placeholders

    "There is at least one data placeholder that cannot be found..."

    Trying to determine what InDesign is objecting to here has lost me HOURS of work. As we speak, I'm trying to set up a tab file for a document. I have inserted two data placeholders. They correspond to the two fields in the data source. I cannot locate the "offending" placeholder.

    Can you PLEASE add a "locate all placeholders" or something similar so we don't pull our hair out trying to find the "extra" placeholders?

  10. horizontal table flow in text boxes

    Right now, if you have a table that has more rows than the text box can handle vertically, the table will auto-flow into a new/threaded text box, or another column within the text box. It would be really helpful if tables could the same thing horizontally.

    For example, let's say you set up a table with 3 rows, first with images, a second with item numbers, and a third with descriptions. Each column for this set up is an inch wide, and you have 30 items that each need their own column, but you want it to fill an 8.5x11…

  12. Playing GIFs in InDesign, improve export to PDF

    Currently there is no way to add a GIF image to the indesign file. In my case I would like to place a GIF image into my portfolio with ability to export it into PDF keeping the play function of the image. Neither in InDesign nor PDFs support this feature and the only way is to present it is to export into EPUB which is useless for the sake of the portfolio sharing as if it limits how file could be reviewed. Please, look at the problem and add interactive feature as if it will be helpful for presentations of…

  13. Pop window note

    I work within teams that open and close ID files. The existing noting and share for review is just too slow and complex for the majority of the work we do. It would be absolutely amazing if you could save a simple twitter style small note when saving. So when the next person that opens the file can read it as soon as it pops up on open and can either choose to keep it / ignore or dismiss the note. Which will get rid of it. And you can only save one note to the saved file which will…

  14. AI Translation in future InDesign

    Adobe Express now has built-in AI translation services for their product. Why is this not available in InDesign?

    I'm not expecting 100% accuracy, we have translators to proof results, but this would be so much more efficient as a first-pass instead of exporting IDML to send to a service or through Trados software.

  17. Snapping with groups

    Allow snapping within groups. Once you click into a group, snapping to other items in the group does not work. Oddly enough, snapping still works to items outside of group. Most of the time, when I'm moving items within a group I want snapping to items in that group not outside it.

  18. Add Units selection in dialog boxes

    It would be extremely helpful to have an option to switch between units in all dialog boxes where values can be entered in different units.

    For instance when making a new document we have the option of selection units via a drop down menu.

    Is there really any reason why this is not an option in all cases where the user can input values of certain units?

    We could need it in the following dialogs:
    - Document Setup
    - Margins and Columns
    - Create Guides
    - All the Dialog boxes for setting paragraph, character object styles.
    - Print Dialog
    -…

  20. Footnotes from text that has been placed from a Word doc should flow continuously, so they can have numbering applied to them

    When importing a document from Word that has footnotes, the footnotes are entered as separate imbedded text frames which I can't thread. If I try to apply numbering, they each are numbered 1. This is really frustrating. The footnotes should not be separated out into individual text frames, to keep them in the same text frame as paragraphs within the same text frame, or they should be allowed to be threaded.
