Show page information in layout
I want the option to display a pagename and/or pagesize on top of pages. This would be very useful when designing several adds in the same ID-file, many with almost the same size. With the ability to name the pages it will be easier to navigate the file. I have attached an example.

New Pdf notes, needs a tool to move them out of of the way when working. and needs to stop zooming out when you click on the note text.
With PDF notes in indesign, the comment icon covers the spot that you need to make the changes. they need to be waaaay smaller or transparent or easy to move. and when you click on the comments to work out which comments are for what note icon, it zooms out rather than just panning to the icon. That would be fine, but when you have lots of stuff in the doc, indesign takes ages to zoom in and out.

Have the option to make page numbers as words (one, two, three).
Make it possible to add page numbers as words (one, two, three) as opposed to just numbers and roman numerals.
Also make it possible to integrate this with things such as the Table of Contents feature.5 votes -

When I insert a spacing on a text box using Text Fram Options Panel I lose all my custom spacing once I apply a corner effect.

Footnotes -- align to bottom of page
I have struggled for hours and searched everything I can find to learn if Adobe has EVER YET come up with a method to align footnotes to the exact bottom of a page or text frame. Mine ride a little high here, a little low there, depending on various things happening in the main text, so that I can't get a consistent align-to-bottom and always must deal with this. CONSIDER THIS. When inserting a footnote, automatically create a separate text frame that can then be manipulated -- its alignment set to bottom, for instance. Now, THAT seems a no-brainer and…

Overscroll Feature
It would be so nice to be able to enable overscroll in Indesign like you can in Photoshop. It feels so claustrophobic not being able to overscroll.

export pdf
In my previous version of InDesign CS5.5. I could immediately type a number in and it would replace the page range. Now i have to tab to that section or manually select the range with my mouse. It doesn't sound like a lot but it greatly slows down my workflow...
Should be an easy fix!4 votes -
Would like the Links panel to show status, resolution, color information for linked AI and PDF
It would be helpful to be able to view the following information for linked AI and PDF files in InDesign's links panel:
- Color space of linked AI and PDF files
- Status of any links or embedded art in linked AI and PDF files
- Effective resolution for links or embedded art in linked AI and PDF files

Would like a feature that would set type flush left to the longest centered line
I often need to set poetry extracts in books so that they are flush left to the longest centered line in the extract—see attached examples.
The workarounds a cumbersome and/or time consuming.
It would be great if there was a setting to do this automatically.

Can there be an export option that exports all layers into there own pdf all at once and not have to export each layer one at a time?
Can there be an export option that exports all layers into there own pdf all at once and not have to export each layer one at a time? Example: I have 20 layers in a document and need to export each on as a pdf. I would like to do that with one export option and each layer retain its name in the pdfs.

Toolbar
My toolbar is located on the right because I'm righthanded and placing it on the right means shorter distances when using the mouse. This means less stress on shoulders and arms.
I have an idea to choose a tool even faster, while creating more workspace and less use of the mouse.
What about a specific key (combination) useable for your non mouse hand (eg.ctrl+shift), to make the toolbar appear directly under the cursor. When you use the same key (combination) again or after you have chosen a tool, the toolbar closes.
This way you will create more space in your…

Picking colours from swatches for gradients
I find it a little tedious when doing gradients that you have to manually enter in the values of the colours even if they're in your swatches. You can add to your swatches from what you're making but you can't just quickly drop a swatch in as a gradient value. Just a bit of a pain when you're trying to work quickly

Table appearances preview
When changing the appearance of a table you have to highlight the table which is in Black. So when you want to preview the changes you cannot see what changes you have made.

Production notes
It would be great if I'd have the possibility to add notes to areas which are only internal. Often you have to make tweaks to get the result you want, but when you have to produce the next version, probably a year later, you don't know anymore, why you did what in this way. If I could add notes it would be very helpful.

Duplicate Table of Contents Style... Alt-[New]
Adding the possibility of duplicating TOC Style or Create New based on old one.
We still have only the option New and Edit. And all new styles have to be defined from scratch.
Or add the shortcut Alt-[New] to create New based on old one.11 votes -
