1. DATA MERGE

   Importing an image via .CSV or .TXT file requires the use of an absolute @IMAGE link, it would be very convenient, for file sharing purposes, for this link to recall the files from the folder where the INDESING file resides, using a relative @IMAGE link, using a relative @IMAGE link.

2. I need in InDesign these tools: 1. in the «Path» I need «Outline Stroke 2. “Perespective” tool 3. the new “Generate” like what in Illustrat

   I do almost all design and drawings in the InDesign program, so I found these tools in Photoshop and Illustrator. It is nice and ok for me not to leave InDesign and do all the things I need for printing and layout.

   I am using InDesign Eastern language. (The Generating, is still not in the Eastern Version!!).

3. Paragraph Styles & Character Styles sort by color/label

   It would be great to be able to color-label a specific paragraph style from the paragraph styles panel. It helps visually when working with lots of paragraph styles. Also, this applies to character styles as well. Perhaps even the groups within the paragraph styles panel could be color-labeled. This feature is already in Photoshop and even Premiere Pro has a color-label feature so for all of us working in InDesign it is a critical feature.

4. Add Color Guide panel as in Illustrator

   Illustrator has the most broad, useful and handy tools to work with color! Add all these to InDesign so we could work with color inside one application with no need to go to Illustrator for choosing shades! Please!

5. Upsample Images on PDF Export

   DESCRIPTION:

   Indesign could offer the option of upsampling images to a specified PPI on PDF export. Rather than requiring the user to find each under-res image and manually destructively upsample each with a round-trip through Photoshop.

   Optimally, there could be a threshold setting below which an image resolution is too low. This could be either "effective" resolution PPI number threshold ("Upsample images with an effective placed resolution above 120ppi"), or a max scale percentage that would be needed to get the image up to the set output resolution ("Upsample images within 40% of target resolution." or "Upsample images by no more than 250%.")

   Export dialog could offer different options for dealing with grossly undre-res images or a global "low-resolution" preferences could be set to throw an error at the initial export command similarly to how it deals with missing or modified links.

   I understand that the Preflight panel is already designed to manage resolution issues. But I'm suggesting the option of a workflow where image upsampling happens only for a specific individual PDF output rather than permanently modifying linked source images.

   REASON:

   1. It can be time-consuming to review and override each error that a slightly under-resolution image will throw with modern highly-automated print workflows. (I mean, come on, can anyone see the difference between 280 and 300 ppi once printed? Of course not, but the press doesn't want the liability so throws automated errors if any image is even just 1% under the target resolution.)

   2. Sometimes it's necessary to use images that are not available at any additional resolution and require resampling to choose softness over pixelation. But it can be a nuisance to manage the multiple up-sampled assets hanging around after various uses ("Oh look! Here's a higher resolution version! Dangit, nope, it's just another upsample.") A source image would preferably remain at the actual original resolution since in most cases an upsampled image is made for a specific output.

6. apply height or width to several image frames at once

   Sometimes I need to make a slight adjustment in size to several images in a piece, and they all need to be the same size. If there was a way to select them all and then type in the height/width to apply to each selected item rather than all of them as a whole, that would save a lot of time of having to select and size each one separately.

   Resolved For User  ·  AdminRavi Kiran (Admin, Adobe InDesign) responded

   Select 1 image. Change its size to what you want for it and other images.

   Then select rest of the images on that spread and choose Object > Transform Again > Transform Sequence Again Individually.

   
   

   Hope it resolves the issue for you.

7. Emoji for Print: Update EmojiOne Color and Support COLR Fonts

   I work for a large book publisher and more and more books (especially YA) include a lot of emoji. To the point that having to replace all emoji with art is a tedious process. For workflow efficiency and for accessibility issues, we utilize emoji fonts and convert them to outline, then color correct for print (grayscale or CMYK). That way we can support diverse emoji and preserve the unicode values so that characters are maintained as manuscripts go from Word to InDesign.

   Right now, emoji fonts that support shading and skin tone/hair color options come in two flavors--OpenType SVG and OpenType COLR. Neither is supported by print PDF standards. OpenType COLR is not yet supported in Adobe software. We are limited to OpenType SVG, which we have to convert to outline to export to PDF (for print standards and for colorspace). We are further limited by the individual font behavior of convert to outline (for example, Noto Emoji Color SVG has horrible character fidelity when converted to outline).

   Adobe's emoji font, EmojiOne Color, version 1.0000, only has emoji up to unicode 9.0, which was released in 2016. Any newer emoji are not available.

   My requests:
   --Update EmojiOne Color with new emoji releases and keep it up to date.
   --Add support for OpenType COLR in Adobe software.
   --(The Dream): Create an emoji font designed for print that:
   +Has CMYK or Grayscale options (emoji fonts are web based and RGB [we would still need RGB for ebook], but putting this thought out there to not forget print)
   +Has shading so that skin tones, hair options, etc. are possible.
   +Uses emoji unicode
   +Works in Adobe software, exports to PDF and embeds for print, is supported in EPUB.

8. Paste items on multiple layers at once

   It would really speed up my workflow if I had the option of selecting a number of layers and be able to ‘Past in place’ on all of them at the same time. I often have to change country ratings (esp. PEGI) on my projects and it would be great if I could select 7-8 layers at a time and switch them out together. Clients also require third-party logos and legal lines to be added and it would really speed up my routines.

9. Linked text frames inside text threads keep links

   When a linked text frame is placed on the page, it updates its contents when the parent linked text frame changes. But if one copies that text frame and pastes it inside a text thread, it appears to have a link icon, but the link is actually broken and will not update with the parent text any more.
   I am trying to use this to have a callout box for a construction procedure that is duplicated is several places in my document. I want them to be inline of my text as other instruction steps will change, and reflow the layout, and I need the content to be inline where the user will need to see the sub-procedure when they perform the actions.

   This may be similar/same as: https://indesign.uservoice.com/forums/601021-adobe-indesign-feature-requests/suggestions/32420425-enable-copy-paste-of-text-text-frames-without-br

10. Make 'Preferences/Grids/Baseline grid' changes live

    When using 'Preferences/Grids/Baseline grid' to set, or change, or modify the baseline grid, it would be really useful if the changes were visible live, rather than having to repeatedly open/close the dialogue window to see changes.

This one project that is coupled with a 240 page digital catalog is the bain to my existence. Having to redo the Table Summary work every interation is TORTURE.

13. Please enable pinch zoom in and zoom out using a touchpad on Window 10 in Adobe InDesign 2024

    My Surface laptop does not enable me to pinch zoom in and zoom out using a touchpad on Window 10 in Adobe InDesign. I was previously using a mac with a magic trackpad and had no issues zooming in and out in Adobe programs. I realize I can use work-arounds like CTRL + / -, but this takes more time and I have less control.

14. Autosave on Indesign !!!

    Currently in much distress due to the lack of an autosave feature on indesign. We artists and students should not be trusted to manually save our work. We just leave it up at all times. I know this exists on Adobe applications, this needs to be a top priority. Too many lost files due to this. Praying for a miracle and a non-existent recovered file. CATER TO YOUR AUDIENCE!

15. Set Solidity of Spot colors

    We have HP Indigo's that can print white ink. For example, printing white ink on a golden paper, it looks great, and if you have a picture, just slab some white ink below it and it looks good.

    However in InDesign, if you set the colors accordingly (Paper color to gold, and add a white spot color), and you enable overprint preview, the white ink just disappears. This means, we're desining with paper set to white and white ink set to Cyan to see what we're doing. Tbh we'd like to see what we'll eventually get.

    We need the ability to set the Solidty of the spot colors, like Photoshop is able to since many many years (see screenshot, comparing the Spot color dialogue between InDesign and Photoshop [german version]). Also, we need the ability to export either a version with or without the paper color (with paper color simulated to show the customer how it'll look like, without for printing).

    There are many printing systems out there that can do white ink and other ink with high solidity: HP Indigo, Xerox Iridesse, Ricoh, ... also, screen printing, and even certain metallic colors in offset printing!

17. Change color to the QR Codes when using Data Merge

    InDesign is great for controlling your design, but when you're importing a QR code from a spreadsheet using Data Merge, it feels a bit limiting. It's like what Henry Ford said about having any color car, as long as it's black.
