  2. Preserving Braking Precision: The Vitality of Brake Flush

    [url=https://www.instantcarfix.com/services/brake-flush]Brakeflush[/url] , an often overlooked but essential automotive maintenance procedure, safeguards the precision of braking systems. As time passes, brake fluid absorbs moisture and contaminants, hindering brake performance. A brake flush entails purging the degraded fluid and replacing it with fresh, clean fluid, ensuring optimal brake function. By embracing regular brake flushes, vehicle owners can enhance safety on the road, prevent potential brake failures, and prolong the lifespan of critical braking components, ultimately fostering a smoother and more secure driving experience.

  3. Track Changes and Show Track Changes switched on by default

    Our users are very dependent on the Track Changes and Show Track Changes function within Adobe InCopy. Currently with the workflow we are using users are having to manually switch this on every time a new article/story is created.

    Users would like to have both of these options switched on by default when InCopy loads so they do not have to manually enable these.

    Please develop this feature so that end users do not have to manually enable these options each time a new story is created.

  5. Change text & add button on message window when trying to close a file while background task is running

    When you try to close a file while a background task is running you get a warning (Screenshot A). The word "cancel" appears there 4 times, so a fast reader would think clicking on "Cancel" will cancel something. But that's wrong. If you click on "Cancel", the window is closing. Nothing else.

    So please change the button to "Close" (and in the German version to "Schließen" instead of "Abbrechen") to make clear nothing is cancelled.

    In addition to that it would be nice to have a second button that helps the user to get directly to the background task panel.…

  6. Better use of tags to create a barrier-free PDF with InDesign

    Hello Adobe InDesign Team

    for accessibility I have to use TAGs in PDFs. I creat my PDF out of InDesign and InDesign has already some features to add TAGs and structure to a PDF when exported but some features are buggy or incomplete so the PDF has to be revised manually, which is a big disadvantage especially when there are changes in the original InDesign file later.

    So here some of the most imported things I would changes to make this process easier.

    1. Add PDF/UA-1
      A barrier-free PDF need the PDF/UA-1 Note in the XMP-Metadata. I can only be done…

  7. pdf imported remarks

    At the moment its only possible to accept remarks/corrections one at a time. But often in a document, there are exactly the same corrections. For example: amsterdam becomes Amsterdam (Capital A). It would be great to accept all these similar corrections at once (or be offered to accept them one at a time throughout the document). And remarks like delete page number are not supported. (masterpage elements)

  9. Form - text fields that can be assigned with paragraph styles in stead of the default font, style, size.

    Default font is set to Minion Pro, size 12 for new text fields. It should be assigned with a paragraph style. The only workaround now is to go to find/replace font.

  10. Make table cells clickable instead of just the content.

    Make the table cells clickable for Interactive PDF. Currently only the content inside of a table cell is clickable so it doesn't work as a button.

  13. Share for Review Editing Tools

    When a stakeholder is commenting on a Share for Review document, it would be great if the editing tool they used most was either sticky or became the default. Our proofer posts around 300 comments on our magazine and when he's using Share for Review, he has to select the highlighter tool each time he makes a comment. Having it be the default (or allowing it to stick once it's chosen) would making proofing much more efficient.

  14. Adjust minimum height and width when scaling text frames with autosize

    When scaling a text frame that is set to autosize with a minimum height and width, everything gets scaled – except for the minimum height and width, leading to ridiculously looking assets when scaled to different sizes for one-time-exceptions.

    Please make it so the minimum width and height is scaled just as the margins and everything else - it would make working with assets with automadet assets with irregular sizes so much easier. Thanks!

  15. [InCopy] Open selected recent documents (open more than just one document)

    Hello,
    A new feature that allows the user to choose to open more than one InCopy document at once in the option 'File > Open Recent' would be very useful.

    I've posted this request last year (https://indesign.uservoice.com/forums/601021-adobe-indesign-feature-requests/suggestions/45136654-open-more-than-one-document-per-session-in-open), but nobody reached me.

    It would be very useful to have this option in InCopy as I always work with chapters (usually 8) that are stored in different subfolders; that is, it is not possible to go to a single folder/directory, select the eight chapters that I will edit and open them whenever I need to edit these chapters (and I…

  16. PDF export function with the selection of which metadata or whether general metadata of pictures should be exported.

    Many companies and also designers are not aware that they share sensitive content on their websites via the metadata for expamle in pictures, if these were uploaded directly after the InDesign PDF Export.

    Many PDFs created with InDesign that you can find online from large companies contain very accurate, detailed information such as mails/phone numbers/patient information/non-public addresses/etc (for example Metadatas from Images embedded wihtin the exported PDF). This is a privacy conflict and in some countries a violation of existing laws.

    Photoshop/Lightroom/Premiere, for example, use a check box/features to control the metadata that is exported. In InDesign this feature is…

  17. Could the order of fonts in the lists in Find/Replace font be adjusted?

    In the Find section of the dialog the font styles are listed alphabetically. In the Replace section they are listed by their order in the menu (from thin to black or whatever).
    Could this be the same in both sections?

  18. Let me export page ranges to separate PDFs

    I typed in page ranges to export (i.e. 1-2, 3-4, 5-6) and was just stuck with each page in a separate PDF. Was surprised that exporting page ranges to separate PDFs was not already functional using this method.

  19. Add color to alpha option for linked images

    I would like to be able to set the white background of a black and white UPC png to transparent. Using a clipping path does not work very well with UPCs as it either clips off some of the bars or leaves some white space around the numbers.

    I don't see how it would be too difficult to define a color as transparent for a linked graphic to make it not necessary to edit the original graphic.
