1. Extract the Pixel's or Edge's X & Y coordinates of the Shapes or lines used in Indesign pages to a Geometry XML file/CSV /Excel/Text file.

   We are trying to figure out a method to extract the X & Y coordinates in a excel or CSV file or any kind of report file, from a given page partitioned with straight horizontal and vertical lines to forming square and rectangular blocks/shapes from it. Now, we want to extract the dimensions of the shapes (squares and rectangles). If there is any way we could extract the pixels (X & Y coordinates of the edges) shown in screenshot considering the edges of the page main boundary (line in pink) as well as inner blocks/boxes formed from the lines (blue lines) ?

2. Test internal page hyperlinks in presentation mode

   I don't know if this can even be possible, but it would be great to be able to test internal page hyperlinks in presentation mode (command + W), so that I don't have to export the PDF every time to test, rectify and test again. It will be especially useful for interactive PDFs with 100+ pages.

   Thank you!

3. Highlight Box Behind Text

   This is so commonly used in design, that it even exists in Adobe Express, yet for some reason has never been introduced to InDesign. Instead we have had to create underlines and adjust them, which then needs to be adjusted every time font size is changed.

   I imagine this is not a difficult thing to introduce, and it would be a huge help to so many people within publication design

4. Support ODT files

   ODT files are used by open source software Libre Office who inherited from both Open Office and Neo Office. It's used by Microsoft users, Apple Users and Linux users. Since it's open source software, it's 100% free. It allows for the same sort of features that Microsoft does as much as Google Docs does similarly.

   Google currently does support ODT files. (see Screenshot) Shouldn't Adobe follow suit and do the same? Every other program does, so why not Adobe?

   InDesign needs to support ODT files for the following reasons:
   1. LIbre Office is Free.

   1. Adobe costs a lot of money per year and not everyone gets Word or Microsoft office for free. There are Apple users which would make the majority of the population, I would htink considering macs are more stabele for Photoshop, etc. There are also Linux users who would have to purchase Microsoft Word.

   2. Adobe supports other open source extensions on the rest of its software so the excuse that "It just is too hard" doesn't look like a good excuse.

   3. It would widen the range of users who could use InDesign as there is no ceiling. https://www.reddit.com/r/linux/comments/16frwx8/15_million_downloads_of_libreoffice_76_two_weeks/
      There is are according to that website 1.5 million downloads of only version 1. Consider how much that has spread since.

   There is an argument about this a few years back as well on the forums.

   https://community.adobe.com/t5/indesign-discussions/add-import-odt-file-support/td-p/8940485

   The listed reason doesn't seem cogent from what I know of software engineering and considering Adobe does support open source in other products.

   Unless you're getting 1 trillion dollars from Microsoft to not do it, it doesn't seem like a feasible business plan to block the path of ODT files and their importation if it would lead to a wider user base being able to access adobe products. Why make people pay for 2 programs? Why don't you want people to spend that sweet cash on Adobe and InDesign instead?

   With the boom in the self publishing industry, I think making the ceiling lower and more accessible to Adobe products would be in your best interest over insisting that people use Word. Give Microsoft the competition they should have in the first place and make it a fair, non-collusion market. Shouldn't Adobe want a wider user base?

5. Unified Windows 11 User Interface

   I think it is of paramount importance that InDesign, Illustrator, and Photoshop should better integrate with Windows 11's Dark/Light mode. Why is still that the menus and menu options are still white even with the application set to the darkest mode? It is a horrible design inconsistency.

6. AI feature: create a layout from some example images

   It would be great if InDesign could create multi-page layouts from a few example images. For example, you've already designed a page, and it would take that and use the pattern & style of it to make more pages and layout variants in the same style. Or you can upload a reference picture to do the same.

7. Add additional alternate layouts to document

   The idea would require InDesign treats alternate layouts like normal Pages in a document so when I duplicate the page it creates all the additional alternate layouts for the new page.

   The links for the new Alternate pages would not link to the original page it was copied from, but the links across the new alternate page will still be linked.

   It would also allow you to move the pages up and down the document and keep all the alternate layouts together.

   This would make alternate layouts much more usable.

   I currently have a template setup with a range of alternate layouts for different social media platforms, however I can't duplicate the pages with alternate layouts already setup, I either have to start from scratch each alternate layout, Create a document with excess pages linked to alternate layout that I can be deleted if not required, or have multiple individual documents for one project for different mock-ups

12. Enable an index entry that's "Current Page" plus or minus "n" page.

    I'm currently in a situation where I have multiple tables in a book, and each table bridges across its spread. The index entry I want to make is on the right-hand (recto) page but, because the upper-left corner of the text frame containing the table is on the preceding left-hand page, the index entry takes the number of that preceding page, not the correct right-hand page.

    In practice, this means I have to go back and manually change the index entry page number to one page higher - for every single entry.

    Implementing this would just require another option for the "Type:" drop-down, with an entry field for the number of pages to add or subtract from the automatic entry.

    I would see this operating as selecting "Current Page +/-" from the "Type:" drop-down in the "New Page Reference" dialog, and then typing the desired offset ("1" in my case) into a "number of pages" field.

13. Keep workspace window details expanded/open when switching to another program

    When I open the details for a specific workspace window, and whilst doing this, I switch to any other program on my computer (specifically on another screen), that window closes until I toggle back into InDesign.

    There are many times where I need to reference that information, whilst accessing another program, and this proves obstructive.

    For example: I expand links window to see a link's path which, for one reason or another, I need to find manually on my computer... those details will immediately disappear when I switch to my finder to search my computer...

15. 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!!).

16. 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.

18. Flatplan for magazines

    Adobe does not currently offer a tool for page imposition when creating a magazine.

    A magazine is produced from many documents, which are then compiled into a complete issue along with advertisements in PDF format.

    We urgently need a tool that allows us to view the entire magazine as a whole.

    Bridge could serve this purpose if it were able to display all pages from InDesign files and allow us to manipulate and move them as needed across the entire magazine.

    Adobe Bridge could then be able to send this magazine structure for export and instruct InDesign on the position of each page, so that it can adjust the page numbers accordingly.

19. 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.

20. 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.

    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.
