  1. Improve the preview quality for effects like drop shadows a.s.o.

    When applying an effect like drop shadow to an item, the preview is always bad - even in high quality preview. I have to write a PDF to see if the shadow looks like I want it to. Especially with very small/thin shadows, the preview is always pixelated. Please improve that

  3. Custom Font Menu

    Please ad the ability to customize a font menu. In order, with colour across all software and the ability for it to over-ride current files with that same custom menu.
    The favourites is just not as powerful at custom order and colour coding for each kind of font style.

  4. Add 'contact shadows' like in Keynote, rather than just plan old drop shadows. The contact shadow is used for products standing upright.

    Add 'contact shadows' like in Keynote, rather than just plan old drop shadows. The contact shadow is used for products standing upright, like bottles, loafs of bread etc etc. Have a look at this on keynote and you'll understand what I mean.

  5. AI assisted paragraph´s hyphenation and justification

    could Indesign suggest different H&J options for the selected paragraph so the designer could choose the best suited, among available options?

    Artificial Intelligence offers 3 options to choose in Photoshop.
    Could we have 3 AI assisted h&j options to choose from?

  7. Select multiples image via Links pallet and set to "multiply"

    I design auction catalogues with upwards of 350 images per catalogue. We often have auction lot numbers and text close to the image so I like to select images to Multiply so no text is accidentlly hidden. I manually have to do per each spread. It would be nice to do in one step by selecting all images in links palette and setting to Multiply.

  10. Allow the continuity of footnotes according to pages and not blocks OR chaining anchored text blocks ?!

    I use anchored boxes which (unfortunately) contain notes.
    The numbering of the notes resumes as if it were the start of another document, that is to say at 1.
    I would like it to be possible for these note numbers to follow the previous ones and for the following ones to take them into account:
    note 1 in the text – anchored box with note which should be 2 (and not 1) – note which should be 3 in the text (but which will be 2…). Aaaargh…
    Perhaps a numbering option like in the paragraph styles/Bullets and numbering options where…

  11. InDesign Cannot Artifact Leader Dots (Accessibility)

    InDesign has no way of artifacting leader dots. This can only be done in PDF. Leader dots are commonly used in tables of contents to guide the reader's eye from the end of the entry to the page number. Leader dots are voiced by access technologies such as screen readers and force users with disabilities to hear, "DOT DOT DOT DOT DOT DOT DOT DOT DOT DOT DOT DOT DOT DOT DOT DOT DOT DOT DOT DOT DOT DOT DOT DOT ..." If they are not artifacted. This is a painstaking process that requires InDesign users to learn PDF Remediation,…

  12. Font Height Reference. Can we have this existing Illustrator functionality for Indesign?

    This is very useful for producing legible large-format environmental graphics. Often distance legibility tables are based on the x-height or the cap height. Being able to set these directly without an Em box look-up will save a significant amount of time.

  13. Make it possible to create GROUPS in the Pages palette and the Layers palette.

    Make it possible to create GROUPS in the Pages palette and the Layers palette. Just like I can do in the Swatches palette or Styles palette.
    When there are many pages (or layers) in a document, grouping them will be very handy.

  15. An option to turn off auto-numbering of interactive buttons

    An option to turn off the auto-numbering of interactive buttons when they are the same name.

    We sometimes create multiple views of an interactive piece and for analytics need the buttons to have the same name. If there are a lot of buttons sometimes it can take quite a while to got through each button and remove the number added to each one.

  16. Duplicate Spread n times

    In some occasions, I use InDesign to collect Photoshop or Illustrator artwork.
    In that case, I create a page with a Rectangle Frame, Auto-Fit checked.
    When I need e.g. 20 of these, I have to duplicate many times 1-2-4-8-16 etc.
    Why not add a number to the duplicate function?

  17. Share for Review Strikethrough Comments Become Unmapped when Text is Deleted

    My editor often uses the Strikethrough text tool in Share for Review. When I delete the specified text, the corresponding Strikethrough comment becomes unmapped. This is a problem in large documents because it is difficult to remember what part of the document the now unmapped comment referred to. My editor needs to be able to confirm that her requested edits were resolved.

  18. Template Automation from CSV File

    Dear InDesign Support Team,

    I hope this message finds you well.

    I am writing to inquire about a feature that I believe would greatly enhance the efficiency of template usage within InDesign.

    Currently, I often work with templates that contain a simple layout consisting of a picture (a person's image) and text (the person's name) underneath it.
    These templates serve as the basis for creating multiple pages, each with unique content.

    What I would like to request is the capability to automate the population of these templates using data from a CSV (Comma-Separated Values) file.
    Specifically, I envision a feature…

  20. Measuring feature

    It would be great if there were a way to measure the distance between 2 objects. If I could select the first hold down option and hover over another object it would be fantastic to see a popup telling me how many px it is apart
