Add draft # or suffix to Share for Review
Just as title says.
I'm always re-labelling the share for review file manually, but it'd be nice if there was a different option for version control.
Say the ability to add a suffix that was a drop down option of letter/number like we have when we go to export things and then the ability to also set it to increase automatically or set to change it manually. This field would just add the suffix to the Title name OR be used as a infographic somewhere in the reviewer to show the draft count...
Could be a little bit of a…

Sync Font Favorites between InDesign and Illustrator
Sync Font Favorites between InDesign and Illustrator and keep them safe between updates. This is a very important feature for designers since it takes time to curate a list of favorite fonts and to repete that in other Adobe apps is cumbersome and time consuming and prone do diferences between them.

Indesign .RTF or .DOCX exporter
If Adobe are so keen to help with sharing and workflows why have they failed to add a decent way of exporting to Rich text Files or .DOCX from Indesign?
I propose an adobe RTF /DOCX exporter that ships with Indesign.
Currently we have to rely on a third party product or a script to do this. It seems ridiculous to have to pay for software that is keen for AI to fill in the gaps but miss out on something as basic as this.
If anyone who has to re-assemble a document format PDF export knows what a nightmare…

Turn off the "Free Transform Tool"
We should be able to turn off the "Free Transform Tool" so that the "Selection Tool" is the only one used. InDesign auto selects "Free Transform Tool" when I just want the "Selection Tool"!

Easier rounded corners etc. with shapes
I wish it would be just as easy to make rounded corners in indesign as it is in adobe illustrator. I wish you would get the circles in the corners of the shape, and just drag them to the amount you want. Or easily type it in. I know its qyite easy now, but I think it should be the same as illustratir. Thanks :)

Preserve the Book panel position on reopening
When reopening a Book, the position and size of the corresponding panel is reset to default.
I would like it would reopen with the same position and size that it had when closing it.
Having to rearrange and reposition it each time is really stressful.

Home screen - Please put your creative hats on and re-design for functionality
I love and hate the Home Screen. I would really like to see Adobe really think through the reason for this screen's existence. The simple fact that you cannot reorder, delete, or organize the list is limiting. The additional fact is that, in some recent updates, the hover to see the "path" is no longer available.
Bottom line: this is valuable real estate that is going to waste or cause more frustration than it's worth because it feels more like an afterthought than a conscious UX/UI decision.
You guys are awesome creatives, and I know there are tons of things…1 vote -
Allow changing the Show/Print status of Text Conditions for the whole book
I use a text condition to highlight text to be revised. Usually, I expect to have this text condition only shown in draft mode, but not exported or printed. This is for my own use during development, or for future reference.
But when having to share a draft with my proofreaders, I want this text condition to be exported into a PDF file. I have therefore to change the Show status of the text condition to Show and Print. This is not allowed for multiple documents in a book. The status of text conditions is not synchronized.
I would like…

Add a CAI Content Authenticity panel to let users check image provenance
It would be helpful to have a CAI (Content Authenticity Initiative) panel in InDesign to allow users to check the "Cr" content credentials on placed images.
(Adobe is one of the founders of CAI, so it should be implemented in all Adobe tools.)

Does the font selection in the Paragraph Styles panel not support autocomplete suggestions?
When selecting a font.
The Paragraph Styles panel has no filter or autocomplete feature.Just like in the Control Panel, where font selection is filtered and suggested as you type.
This feature seems to be missing in the Paragraph Styles panel, the Find and Replace Fonts panel, and the Composite Font Settings.
It’s very inconvenient.I wonder if there will be improvements in version 2026.
Also, it’s very inconvenient that you can’t quickly jump to the current font’s position in the font list.

Key Command for Tab Switching
Implement a key command for switching between tabs.
This would help speed things up significantly when comparing documents, referring to other documents or copying and pasting between two.

indesign 2024 version needed!!!
Hi, I need a 2024 version of Indesign because my INDD file shows damaged. The only way to recover is to open it with the old version which it was created from. This is very important to me. Thank you

Add sentence case to character options
Add sentence case to the character options (alongside all caps, small caps, lowercase, etc.). My clients often send content with titles typed in all caps, and I’d like a quick, reliable way to convert them to sentence case (and/or title case).

In Adobe InDesign, I am unable to set a table row height greater than 211.667 mm. However, this limitation does not occur in Microsoft Word, where larger row heights can be applied without issue. Could you please advise on how to address this restriction in InDesign?
We need to add this feature in Indesign

Grids in Document setting
Grids do not belong to the app settings. Should be part of document settings.
Rework Styles/Settings.
In Styles, the tabs are not logical.
How is Language and 'Advanced Character Format'?
Why is 'Align to Grid' part of 'Indents and Spacing'?
Lots of work to do there.1 vote -
Save current document as a preset
It would be a better way to save presets, when a preset can be saved from the current document the user is working on. And then a dialog should appear to choose which settings should be included e.d. Document settings, grids, margins & columns, Parents, Styles, ...
The current way is quite useless.

Save/Load Ink Manager Configurations within one file.
I'd like to be able to save and load Ink Manager configurations, particularly ink alias sets, within a file.
Use case: I have a series of labels that are, except for color scheme and copy, exactly the same. I'd love to be able to produce the different color variations simply by loading a set of aliases. I could change the color configuration of each label variant simply by loading the ink manager alias set for that colors scheme, starting from a SINGLE master file, without having to resort to identical layers in different colors, etc.
My goal here is to…
