Please restore the "Paragraph styles: Edit All Export Tags" option to Keyboard Shortcuts
Possible to restore the "Paragraph styles: Edit All Export Tags" option to Keyboard Shortcuts? It is not present in InDesign 2025.
Would be so much easier than opening that command through the Paragraph Styles panel each time.

Advanced color options
I'd love to be able to define a custom CMYK / RGB pair in a single color swatch. There are Corporate Designs with a huge difference of the CMYK and RGB equivalents in their brand colors. So if I design a document that'll be used for viewing on screens and also printed, I have to maintain & update two versions of the document with two different sets of colors. If there's a solution to this, that'd make my day.

There is no option to include a Logo. It would be great to have this option.

I would love it if InDesign could read sidecar files - xmp.
I create digital scrapbooks. I edit my pics locally in Lightroom - they are mostly jpgs. These are usually specific copies of images I have exported from Lightroom solely for the purpose of going in the scrapbook. The local edits all have xmp files because they have been previously exported. I don't want to have to save them again - I'm talking hundreds of photos spanning years. Hours spent on edits now I have to go back and re-save / export them all. It would be fantastic if InDesign just read the xmp file and brought them in with the…

Integrate Optical Margin Alignment into Paragraph tab
Currently, the Story tab is a standalone tab, offering only one checkbox: the Optical Margin Alignment option. This functionality, in my opinion, is closely related to paragraph adjustments, such as paragraph alignment within text boxes. Given its nature, it seems more intuitive and efficient to integrate Optical Margin Alignment within the Paragraph tab or the main text formatting panel.
Adding the Story tab to my workspace alongside essential tabs like Character, Paragraph, and various styles consumes more horizontal screen space than necessary. Once positioned next to other panels, the tab's label, "Story," becomes difficult to read due to the limited…

AI agent for remembering text content style
I often work with instruction manuals that have been poorly translated, and I need to reword them so they read clearly and professionally. A lot of the content is similar across different jobs, and I’d like to stay consistent with how I’ve written things in the past without having to dig through old files manually.
It would be great if InDesign had an AI agent that could:
Learn my style and remember my text preferences (e.g. whether I use “kg” or “KG”).
Automatically reference past projects so I don’t have to copy/paste from older manuals and allow me to ask…

Make Paste Remembers Layers the Default
Make 'Paste Remembers Layers' the default. By default this is an option that must be selected, but this should be the default behavior. You will note the number of suggestions on this very forum for this feature that already exists. There is never going to be an occasion under which I do not want to paste to the original layer, and I often want to copy and paste multiple objects on different layers. However, this feature is well hidden in the layers panel menu options, disabled by default. Moreover 'Paste in Place' should likewise be the default. When would it…

Página Principal (Maestra) aplicada automáticamente
Hola desarrolladores,
¿No sería genial que InDesign pudiera aplicar automáticamente una Página Princpal cada vez que detecte un estilo de párrafo en particular?
👉 Ejemplo: en la apertura de cada capítulo aplicamos el estilo de párrafo “Título capítulo”. Si InDesign pudiera reconocer ese estilo y asignar de forma automática la página maestra correspondiente, se ahorraría tiempo y se reducirían errores.
Esta función simplificaría muchísimo nuestro trabajo en documentos largos como libros, manuales o revistas.
Espero puedan conciderarla.

Hide Application Home Bar
PLEASE need an option to HIDE the application bar with the Home icon and app version... Such a waste of much needed workspace, and there is absolutely nothing in that bar that enhances my workflow.

It would be fantastic to have an AI agent built into InDesign which would check spelling, grammar and fact check text data.

Add macOS Core Image Filters as Native Object Effects in InDesign (e.g., Vibrancy, Gaussian Blur, Glass Distortion)
Please add support for macOS Core Image filters (e.g., CIGaussianBlur, CIVibrancy, CIBloom, CIGlassDistortion) as native, real-time object effects within InDesign. These filters are already GPU-accelerated and supported natively by macOS. Tapping into this framework would allow InDesign to offer real-time visual effects like frosted glass, material-style blurs, and ambient glow — without the need to pre-render images in Photoshop.
For designers: Effects like vibrancy, translucency, blur, and light diffusion are increasingly common in modern design — not just in UI/UX, but in packaging, promotional layouts, and publication work. These are time-consuming to fake using raster-based workarounds. Having real-time effects within…

page sorter
When I'm working on a long document, it's very hard to find a specific page that I know the look of, but don't know the page number to. And trying to move pages around is also ver hard in the small Page panel.
It would be nice to be able to switch views in the main document window/panel to something that looks like the slide sorter on Microsoft Powerpoint. Where the thumbnails of each page isn't as small as they are on the Pages panel and there is a much larger screen real estate to sort through the pages.

Bookmarking files on home screen
I'm often working on 10+ projects and probably 20+ files in Indesign at a time. Whenever I restart the computer or switch between projects, it takes time to navigate to the folder where I've saved the project and look at various collateral involved with the project as well as open the Indesign file.
It would be great to have another section on the home screen under the Recent files to have Bookmark files. The logical place to put the bookmark function would be in the Files menu when you have the file open, but you can also put a shortcut…1 vote -
Arrange pages panel
Being able to drag pages around in the Pages window is fine, but it's incredibly clunky and slow. It's very easy to make mistakes when you can only see 3 minuscule pages at once in the window. Would it be possible to make a new type of window with a grid layout of all your pages, where you can easily select multiple pages and drag pages around?
Also, as others have mentioned, please implement page folders!! That would be so useful.
