Preserve Preview Checkbox Settings
After upgrades or patches, it would be nice to have the Preview switches in so many various dialog boxes preserved in the ON position.

Disponibilizar a função de arredondar os cantos de uma tabela feita no Adobe InDesign
Gostaria de sugerir um recurso que permita arredondar os cantos de uma tabela feita no Adobe InDesign. Atualmente isso não é possível. Mesmo que se coloque dentro de uma caixa, e a caixa arredondar, o recurso não sobrepões a tabela.
Veja o anexo.

Dynamic text for Indesign please…..
It would save so much time — while Dynamic Text isn’t perfect in Photoshop Beta, it’s still great. Since InDesign is such a typographic powerhouse, though, it would make even more sense there — far more control, styles, and layout flexibility.

Expandir columnas
Sería de gran ayuda, tanto para revistas como para periódicos, que en "Expandir columnas” en InDesign, el titular o entradillas no sea solo desde la primera columna, que se pueda elegir entre la segunda, tercera, etc.; esto evitaría cajas de textos… De esta forma, por ejemplo, se pueden centrar en una página de 6 columnas el Título y subtítulo y que el texto empiece en la primera columna…

Feedback on the Mathematical Character Feature in InDesign
Dear Adobe Team,
First of all, I would like to thank you for adding the mathematical character insertion feature to InDesign. This is a very important step, especially for users who prepare educational materials, scientific publications, or technical documents.
However, I have noticed a few limitations while using this feature:
The font of the mathematical characters cannot be changed. This makes it difficult to maintain visual consistency with the rest of the document and reduces flexibility in professional designs.
Mathematical characters are not aligned with the baseline of the surrounding text. They often appear slightly above or below the text…

Conditional Vertical Justification
Add a new option to the Vertical Justification settings for text frames: "Conditional Justify".
BehaviorWhen Conditional Justify is selected, vertical justification is applied only when the text frame is sufficiently filled. Add a numeric field: Content fill threshold (%). If the frame’s text occupies a percentage equal to or greater than this threshold, the frame receives full vertical justification. If the frame’s fill is below this threshold, the frame uses the chosen fallback alignment.Fallback option
Provide a dropdown: Fallback alignment with the classic vertical choices: Top, Center, Bottom.Notes / Suggested defaults
…Default Content fill threshold: 90% (editable).1 vote -
Precise Text Wrap Control for Column Rules
I love the Column Rules feature in the Text Frame Options Dialogue. What keeps me from using it as often as I'd like is due to how column rules interact with text wrap.
I'd like to have: 1. Numerical control of how rules wrap independent from text in the text wrap dialogue box, or: 2. The ability for rules to be locked to baseline grids. Perhaps having both would give the perfect amount of control?
Please see my screen grab attached. You will see that the body copy wraps as expected, but the column rule does not. It's sticking above…

Binding option for everyone
I would like to request that the Binding option (Left/Right) be made available in all document types and regional settings, not just in specific templates or page presets.
We are a publishing company based in Hungary, and we regularly publish Japanese manga titles. The materials we receive from Japan are prepared in InDesign with right-to-left page order (Right Binding). Unfortunately, once we open or localize these files, the Binding option is often locked or unavailable, which means we cannot simply flip the reading direction.
As a result, we have to manually recreate or copy all pages into a new document…

Allow ignoring white spaces in Find/Replace
it would be good if, the same way you can select "Case sensitive" in the find/replace, you could select "ignore white spaces" or "special characters" and only finds plain text with normal spaces.
For example, if you try to find a sentence that has non-breaking spaces, n-spaces, manual line breaks, etc, unless you add all those characters codes to the find field, InDesign won't be able to find the text. If you were able to ignore all those "special" characters you could find and replace the whole sentence with the text you want with normal spaces.
This would be really…

Alternate layout - Improve
I struggling with this function, i want easy options for me that makes severeal sizes to dirrerent devices of the same design.
I want the option to only make an alternative layout on one choosen page, not auto make it to all my pages.
Also, the autoscale and object adjustment is'nt good at all. If you try this function in canva, it will take me some seconds and i only need to adjust it a little bit, in Indesign, its a struggle. Ans i want to use indesign, but its tome consuming.1 vote -
Adobe Express templates - opens in Indesign
Indesign recently come with a new feature thats allow you to se and open Adobe Express Templates from the startpage in Indesign. BUT, i would love to open them in Indesign, not Adobe Express.
Exacltly like you do in Adobe Express or Canva, but keep it in Indesign. Its perfect if you need some inspiration, or if you use the programs but you have to make something fast and not from scratch.1 vote -
Add an option to reinitialize the list of fonts
I would like to request the addition of an option to reinitialize the list of fonts. Before starting a new project, I prefer not to see the previously used fonts at the top of the list. Instead, I would like to have the fonts organized strictly in alphabetical order. This would help me easily find and select the fonts I want to use without the distraction of past choices. Thank you for considering this feature!

My be it's not an idea, but there's something wrong
Upgrade auf Indesign 2025. Datei im Umfang von 32 (!) Seiten stürzt permanent ab, auch nach der zweiten oder dritten Änderung im Text. Rückkehr zu Indesign 2024 nicht möglich, da alle Dateien neu gespeichert wurden. Was ist zu tun?

Add context toolbar to normal workspace
At the moment, the context toolbar can only be fixed in its position WITHIN the document window. So it always overlaps the page I am currently working on. That annoys me.
In Photoshop, you can fix its position above the document window, within the normal toolbar.
I would love to see this position ability in Indesign, too. And to be able to save that as a workspace option.Another issue is that if I switch Indesign to another screen (I am working with two monitors) while working, the context toolbar stays in the screen I used when starting Indesign. I…

Make "align stroke to outside" actually align the stroke to the outside, like it used to.
When you set a bounding box to align the stroke to the outside, it used to mean that...the stroke was aligned to the outside of the bounding box. I thought that was the whole point of that setting. Now the bounding box is outside of the stroke no matter what you set it to. I can't imagine any possible reason for this. Now if I want to position any element properly, I have to remove the stroke temporarily. Please change it back?

How to Win Geometry Dash Lite
Winning in Geometry Dash Lite requires more than quick reflexes—it’s all about rhythm, timing, and persistence. Every level is designed to test your reaction speed and ability to stay calm under pressure. Here’s how you can master it.
Learn the rhythm: Each obstacle follows the beat of the background music. Listening closely helps you anticipate jumps and spikes instead of reacting too late.
Practice in training mode: Use practice mode to memorize tricky sections. Don’t rush—focus on getting the rhythm right before attempting the full level.
Tap lightly and consistently: Over-tapping can ruin your timing. Keep your taps short and…

Feature Request: Apply Paragraph Styles to Non-Contiguous Paragraphs (Ventura Publisher-Style) Dear Adobe InDesign Team, I’d like to reque
Feature Request: Apply Paragraph Styles to Non-Contiguous Paragraphs (Ventura Publisher-Style)
Dear Adobe InDesign Team,
I’d like to request a feature that would greatly improve workflow efficiency: the ability to select non-contiguous paragraphs and apply a paragraph style to all of them at once.
This was a standout feature of the early Ventura Publisher, which used a structure-first approach—encouraging consistent use of styles over manual formatting. With Ventura, you could quickly tag multiple scattered paragraphs (like subheads or captions) and assign a style with a single keystroke. InDesign currently requires each paragraph to be styled individually unless using GREP or Find/Change.
