  1. ツールの互換性について

    Compatibility between InDesign and Illustrator, with the same specifications and usable features as Illustrator, such as text boxes and point characters, object appearance features, etc., and with grouped objects from the CC library also remaining editable from Illustrator. Please allow copy-paste from Illustrator to InDesign with grouped objects from the CC library still editable.

  3. Remove the floating "help with a feature items"

    I wanted to share some feedback regarding a recent usability issue I’ve experienced across several Creative Cloud applications, including Illustrator, InDesign, Photoshop, and Acrobat.

    In recent updates, each of these programs has introduced tool-specific pop-up panels or hints that appear when a tool is selected. While I understand the intent is to offer helpful tips or highlight features, these pop-ups are consistently disruptive to my workflow. They frequently appear directly over the content I'm working on and are difficult to reposition. Even when I move them off the canvas, they often reset to their original (obstructive) location whenever I switch…

  4. Option to "Rasterize All Pages" in EPUB Export

    My organization needs the ability to rasterize all pages in a document when exporting to a Fixed Layout EPUB.

    InDesign EPUB export currently only supports rasterizing the first page or individual objects. Neither of these are sufficient for our needs. We publish graphic novels with complex, overlapping design elements, and we need the pages to look exactly as they do in regular PNG exports.

    Our current workaround is to export PNG's from InDesign, and then use an additional software to assemble the images into an EPUB, which is incredibly time-consuming.

  5. Books. Please add more control from scripts

    Book. Add more control from scripts: reading state from Book panel (highlighted items).
    Maybe add a new property to BookContent (boolean), what signals whether this element is highlighted on a book panel.

  6. Espacio de trabajo universal y personalizado entre apps de Adobe

    Hola Adobe 👋
    Soy diseñadora gráfica y trabajo con Illustrator, Photoshop e InDesign a diario. Estas aplicaciones comparten muchos paneles (Capas, Alinear, Color, Transformar, etc.), por lo que me gustaría poder crear un espacio de trabajo personalizado y universal, que se sincronice entre las apps de Creative Cloud.
    La idea es simple: si un panel existe en esa app, que se muestre en el lugar donde lo puse; si no, que lo ignore. Pero que respete mi estructura visual y estilo de trabajo, sin tener que volver a crear manualmente el espacio de trabajo en cada aplicación.
    Además, cada vez…

  7. Open documents shared to me in the program.

  8. Could we make the Background task icon animation work harder?

    The current icon appears next to the share button on the top bar when we export a PDF, what about including the percentage within the revolving circle? Saves me open the tab to check for bigger docs. Thanks!

  9. Show preflight errors not at the margin of the screen

    Preflight is showing the locations of the errors it has found somewhere in the margin of the screen. Sometimes at the top, sometimes at the bottom (see screenshots).
    This is a bit annoying when taking a closer look. Any chance to change this to "in the middle of the screen"?

  10. Nesting bookmarks trought multiple files within an InDesign book

    I would like to be able to nest bookmarks by creating, for example, a nest of bookmarks in one file and then in another file (which is still part of the book) using the same name assigned to the bookmark nested in the previous file, so that I can continue to insert content within the same nest.
    The result would be = 1 large group containing all the bookmarks I am interested in.

    This could be done by taking a cue from the variant/variable renaming system that currently exists in Figma.

    For example, if I want to put the bookmark…

  11. Possibility to insert multi-language variables in one document

    I would like to be able to insert multilingual variables in InDesign, within a single document. I often have to produce multilingual documents and have to insert dates, texts and so on.... I would like to be able to insert these variables in different layers of a document (e.g. ‘Italian’ layer = Italian text variable; ‘English’ layer = English text variable and so on).

    I think this could be a good function to add in future versions.

  12. [ID-4261554] InDesign MacOS Sequoia Window Snapping Feature

    I'd appreciate if InDesign would implement window snapping feature as well in macOS Sequoia since all other Adobe apps have this already.

  13. Drag and drop Parent Pages onto pages or pasteboard

    Allow users to drag and drop parent pages onto actual pages (not in the pages panel) or pasteboard.
    Dragging master pages onto pages would apply it to the page.
    Dragging onto the pasteboard would apply it to the spread.

  14. A preset to limit your FONT view to preferred language, such as the one chosen by OS/region.

    I have to use Noto Sans; Its required by my work at my University.

    Is there a way to limit your font view to preferred language chosen by OS/region. My font menu is a mess of languages and it's hard to navigate to choose just "Noto Sans." Try it... really.. Try and Type "Noto Sans"... I never get the one I type it's always one of the other languages versions.

    • So when a user choose their working language, InDesign offer them the right set of font.

    Font lists are wayyyy tooooooo long to contain all the wolds languages by default!…

  15. Interactive forms in Indesign

    Find it important to have the Acrobat-form options mirrored in Indesign. e.g. "save the document" is not available. at the moment every form needs to be reworked in Acrobat, leaving lots of space for failures and mistakes.

  16. Arrange features

    I've been frustrated with the new way dragging a document tab to make it a seperate window forces it into a split screen first, and then I have to grab the tab again and the second time it actually makes it a new window. I'd like to be able to toggle that feature on and off (I'm sure it works for someone's workflow). Additionally, the document window edges often hides under the menu and/or below the edge of my screen. This is frustrating because it makes it hard to scale the window if the right hand corner we're meant to…

  17. Tool to review for performance issues

    It would be great if there was a tool similar to preflight that reviewed documents for potential performance issues and not just errors. Like if one link is massive and slowing everything down, if a table is causing issues, or especially if a hyperlink is going to open another document to get to hyperlink info (sidenote: copying hyperlinks from other documents is a nightmare, why does it default to opening the other indd file instead of just copying the link info?).

  18. Text variables with text preparation

    Text variables with text preparation:
    Text variables whose final values ​​are calculated using a script, GREP, case conversion according to user-defined schemes, and the ability to assign character styles to parts of the resulting string would be very helpful.
    Text variables can extensively use the existing serialization mechanism for paragraph and character styles, such as in running headings.

    For example, many scientific journals generate a DOI (Digital
    Object Identifier) for each scientific article, which is a URL that optionally uses a constant prefix, year of publication, issue number in the specified year, and the initial page number of the article.…

  19. rename character and paragraph styles using a batch renaming feature

    It would be incredibly helpful if we could rename character and paragraph styles using a batch renaming feature, similar to what is available in Bridge. This would be especially beneficial when creating accessible PDFs through a Book file. When the same style names appear across different files, it causes tag issues during export via MadeToTag, requiring manual adjustments to all the styles. Since we frequently work with a variety of documents, this process becomes quite cumbersome over time. Thank you so much!

  20. Adding new layers to a PSD shouldn’t reset all instances

    I really hate it when I’m working with a layered PSD file in InDesign where I have different layers of the image turned on and off throughout a layout and then if I edit the PSD and add any new layers, when I come back to InDesign, instead of just updating the layers that were turned on, it resets every instance of that PSD and I have to manually go and turn all of the specific layers back on/off for each instance. Why can’t it be smart enough to keep the layers on that were on and just update like…
