Need to add a Haitian Creole dictionary to InDesign
Hello all;
At HistoryMiami Museum, we produce a lot of material in the three most spoken languages in our community, English, Spanish and Haitian Creole, following the Miami-Dade County government best practices. InDesign has already incorporated dictionaries in English and Spanish. We are looking for a comprehensive Haitian Creole dictionary to add to InDesign, for spellcheck purposes. We would appreciate any help with this matter. Thank you.

Include chapter number in index
I'd like to include the chapter number as prefix for the page numbers in the index.
Background:
I have a book with 60 documents. Each document has another chapter number and page numbering restarts in every document at 1. The chapter number is separately styled, so that it is an eyecatcher.The index for the whole book is placed in document 1. For a useful index I need the chapter numbers!
My current workaround is:
Before I update the index I enable the option "Include section prefix in page numbering" in EVERY document. Then I update my index and then…4 votes -
Incompatible 100% view between Indesign and Illustrator to Photoshop in Versions 2020
When I set object dimensions or text sizes in Indesign / Illustrator, 100% view shows larger-sized objects (in pixels) that do not match the actual dimensions as apears in a screen-shot. Meaning: There is a difference in 100% view between Indesign and Illustrator to Photoshop. This makes it difficult to design for web in Indesign/Illustrator. This issue did not exist in earlier versions such as CS5.5.

Make it possible to use ParaNumOnly in InDesign cross-reference
When cross-referencing I would like to be able to use ParaNumOnly, like in FrameMaker. In Danish, and probably other languages, the reference to e.g. "Figure 1" mid sentence should be lower case - "see figure 1" even though I am cross referencing Figure 1. ParaNumOnly would make it possible for me to only cross reference the number and control whether the case in "figure" should be upper or lower.

Row Height and Column Width definitions in Cell Styles
It would be really helpful if you could control the width and height of cells through Cell Styles, a bit like you can with Object Styles.

Please add an interactive box for images + option to set font color for interactive text boxes
I recently started to make interactive PDF forms in InDesign (which is a great tool!), but I was surprised to find out that:
- you cannot add an interactive box for images
- you cannot set color to the assigned font in interactive text boxes...
Seems like some basic functions like this are still missing in InDesign, so it would be greatly appreciated if you could add it to your to-do list.
Thanks a lot in advance!

Allow using existing folder path for cloud sync
currently there is no option to choose existing folders i want to backup \sync to the cloud
so this makes the idea of sync useless for me, since if i would change my existing projects folder paths it would break things up in my projects files linkscurretly adobe forces the user to use their folder (under any path) and place the files there
very poor workflow !

Link to a Specific Page in external PDF File saved on the local disc -> choose between relative/absolute link
It would be nice to have an option to open external file (pdf) saved on the local disc/folder on the specific page - the same way as url link ('#page=xx'). And it's also necessary to have an option select between relative/absolute link. If the file is distributed and the parent directory gets changed, it has to be still able to use the relative link (of course in case the original structure has not been changed).

Hochzahlen
Ich finde es klasse, daß wenn ich Fußnoten zahlen schreibe, was ja meistens in Büchern die Quellenangaben sind, das die sich automatisch aktualisieren. Beim. Inhaltsverzeichnis geht es ja auch, bitte das für die Fußnotenzahlen auch machen. Vielen Dank 🙂 Bleiben Sie gesund.

Expand the InDesign “book” feature?
I’ve been indexing newsletters for a historical society for years. (37 volumes/years) There are 65 InDesign files in the book. Some files are by individual issue and I’ve compressed some files for each issue year. When I compile the index, several page numbers have dropped out and a few items have dropped too. Once I have the index file saved and try to exit, the software freezes. Is there any way of helping me?

Single page view
A simple request, single page view without other pages on the screen.
Trying to focus on the layout on one page when I can see the others drives me crazy.

Username for inCopy Assignments
Please remove the function that demands a username assignment to each and every inCopy assignment that is exported. It is a ridiculously unnecessary function and completely inhibits workflow. This function, at the very least, should have a disable option. It ridiculously irritating.

Include possibility to switch writing direction for Hebrew and Arabic in all language versions, not just the ME one.
I am using the Swedish version of InDesign CC and sometimes need to be able to write in Hebrew. But the possibility to change writing direction is only available in the Middle Eastern version, which changes all menus and panels into English. I want to be able to keep all menus and panels in Swedish, but still be able to switch writing direction for Hebrew (and Arabic). I suggest that you include this possibility in all language versions, not just the ME one, so that the original local language can still be used in the user interface.
