1. Make the systemfonts invisible.

   As a graphic designer I use a font management system. Unfortunately it is not (anymore) possible to delete the endless list of unnecessary fonts at MacOs Catalina. When using the Adobe programs (Indesign, Photoshop, Illustrator), the terribly long list of (unnecessary) fonts now appears. In this list, I have to find my activated letter fonts. Very annoying!

   Is it really not possible to remove or hide that list of Mac fonts?

2. 表格总宽与表头行

   表格總寬
   希望在表樣式中增加可固定表格寬度，通過輸入固定數字，實行在同壹個文檔中，所有表格寬度壹致。從Wrod置入的表格寬度不壹，在ID需要壹個個調整，這種重復的勞動讓人枯燥無味。在網絡上，有人寫下了統壹調整表格寬度的腳本，非常實用。但我希望這是ID中應有的功能。
   表頭行
   同表寬度壹樣，表頭行也是需要不斷從壹個表設置到另壹個，重復勞動，枯燥無味。網絡上也有人寫了壹個自動化處理表頭行的腳本，但這個腳本在遇到表格第壹行有合並單元格或第壹行某些列中有多個單元格時，會停止工作。遇到表格只有壹行時，也會停止工作。請在表樣式中增加選項，自動設置表頭行功能。

3. Glyphs reseting

   I use "Find/Change > Glyph" to replace some Bulgarian (BGR)/Russian (RUS) glyphs to Macedonian (MK) ones. But, when I ALT click on a altered paragraph style (with + sign next to it) which contains the MK glyphs -- they are reseted to BGR/RUS glyphs.
   Please, fix it.

4. Placed pdf loses interactivity features and accessibility tags.

   When PDFs are placed into an InDesign layout and then the entire layout is exported to PDF, the placed PDFs are converted to <Figure> tags in the final PDF.

   There are many time when designers must incorporate an existing PDF into their documents, such as:

   -- Multi-page PDF of an existing document.

   -- A pre-made PDF AcroForm

   -- In annual reports, an official letter from a president, commissioner, or other authority.

   -- In financial reports, the required letter from the accounting firm as well as the financial balance sheets.

   In these above cases, the placed PDFs are official documents that can't be rebuilt in InDesign. They are already in the PDF format, accessible, and with other interactive features such as hyperlinks or form fields.

   But at this time, all of that is lost and the PDF becomes a static <Figure> with unreadable and inaccessible text. Alt-text is limited to 200-300 characters, so it can't be used to describe, for example, the pro-forma letter from the accounting firm that did the organization's audit.

   Suggested solution:
   As the designer is placing the PDF into the layout, they need to select whether a) the PDF is a graphic, or b) the PDF is a live document with interactive and accessibility features that must be maintained.

   If a) then it's correct to be tagged as <Figure> in the resulting PDF (this is what we now have).

   If b) then it must retain the live text, <Tags>, hyperlinks, buttons, and form fields and pass this information into the resulting PDF.

   We find this situation a lot in government, academic, nonprofit, and corporate publications. See a recent post in the Adobe Community Forums at https://community.adobe.com/t5/InDesign/Export-issue-Placed-interactive-PDF-then-exporting-entire-doc-to/m-p/10680659#M157346

   Sure hope this can be done!

   Need More Info  ·  amaarora responded

   Hi,
   What all things would you like PDF to retain? (alt text, tags and what else?)

   Currently when PDF is imported, its imported as a single graphic.

   Would you want the tags and alt text to be mapped to their correct assets in InDesign? and those tags and alt text be also editable from within InDesign after PDF is imported?

   Or should they be remapped and restored once the document with placed PDF is again exported to PDF from InDesign?

   Would want to know more about the proposed solution / workflow

   Thanks

   Please start using the standard path location of files. I'm struggling with data merge handling thousands of images, which I would like to structure. Now I have to place all images within the main project folder, which makes it really messy.

   This is not the way it should work, especially as we use this document on several different computer - which would make us change the master data every time we work with it.
   C:/path/path/path/path/indesignproject/images/image.jpg

   Ideal would be to follow the standard OS paths which would make it work on the computer your opening the project on without having to change the master data.

6. ‘nth of type’ conditions for paragraph styles

   In CSS, we can use an nth-of-type() selector to define behaviour for the nth instance of a style. For example, we can make all paragraphs have a first line indent, but use nth-of-type(1) to remove the indent from the first paragraph on the page. This feature also supports (odd) and (even) values for n.

   This feature would be extremely useful in Indesign for a range of use cases. Importantly, it would eliminate the need for several styles when typesetting multiple-paragraph block quotes, interview dialogue (indenting/outdenting), drop caps on chapter openings, etc.

   For full flexibility, I imagine the feature would offer the ability to clarify the extent of the document sampled for the nth of type condition, ie. nth of type within <document>, <story>, <page>, or <contiguous block of paragraphs sharing the same style>.

   The feature could be implemented similarly to Nested Styles, except the user would be assigning a paragraph style rather than a character style.

8. Implement smooth(er) scrolling on Windows

   This may well go hand-in-hand with the GPU acceleration request. Currently, mouse-wheel scrolling is stepped I fairly large increments, even when using a high-end pointing device such as the Logitech MX Master 3. This makes for significant fatigue when navigating a large document.

   The behavior in MacOS, even without GPU acceleration enabled is a LOT better. Please add some kind of control over the incriment size at least, or idially a truely 'smooth' experience. Illurtrator and Photoshop are much much better, but I spend my life in InDesign. Affinity Publisher on Windows has managed it.

9. Keep non printing elements visible on screen

   A lot of documents I create, are for both printing and onscreen publishing (.pdf). In the .pdf's, I like to add a divider to spreads, to make clear that two pages are show. When setting the 'Non Printing' Attribute for this divider, it dissappears on screen. Maybe ther should be an 'Invisible' check box for that, and a 'Non Printing' option for objects that are visible, but do not print.

10. Paste Text Only from Other InDesign Documents

    We regularly copy and paste from other InDesign documents. It is really frustrating that every time we do this the incoming swatches and styles are also pasted into the document, resulting in extensive lists of swatches and styles with similar names. Much like the "Preferences - Clipboard Handling - When Pasting Text and Tables from Other Applications - Text Only" option, it would be incredibly useful to offer this feature for "Other InDesign Documents" as well.

11. Ignore Fit to frame options when replacing images whilst maintaining size

    When I have the option "Preserve Image Dimensions When Relinking" selected, I would like it to override any Auto Fit to Frame options.

    Right now I'm working on a catalogue that has several thousand pictures and all the frames are set to Auto Fit to Frame. When I relink the images (with the high resolution files) they all change size.

13. Native fullscreen-mode on macOS

    I think InDesign (and every other CC application) should support Apples native fullscreen-mode in macOS. I can understand when some people prefer the oldschool way of just maximizing de window, but the native fullscreen-mode would be so much more convenient when working with multiple desktop spaces and would be much more consistent within macOS.

17. Shading and Underline conflict

    Some underline strokes become invisible when Paragraph Shading is applied.
    If removed shading then strokes appear.
    That's a bug, shading always must go bottom.
    Two screenshots are from Indesign, with and without paragraph shading. The last screenshot is from Acrobat, i've deleted manually gray frames to reveal the hidden strokes.

18. Allow full functionality for publishing online - blend modes, page transitions, etc w/animated objects

    I've been working with a new media document that has video, sound and artwork to export as an interactive graphic novel - When animating objects, blend modes are not retained. Page transition feature - "turning page" also not supported.

    Spoke with adobe and verified all tonight... he said "I'm trying to do something new". XD I could see this being very useful for graphic novel designers and other new media applications in the film and streaming space as well - would love to have this functionality in the next update so I can finish this project!

    Have found no other way besides learning html code (not going to happen) to create this type of media and would love to use indesign features already built in!

19. The footnote in journal layout

    Please add the ability to make the text of the footnote in a separate frame, that would be able to use footnotes in a complex, journal layout. Often there are situations when some text frames, each one has footnotes and the text of these footnotes were at the bottom of the page, separately, and the numbering in turn.
