  1. epub permissions

    When a team member moves on, and their Adobe account cancelled, all live ePubs published under that account are lost, and the links currently out in the world are broken. I would like to see an additional option in the Publish Online Dashboard that allows users to add/transfer permissions to another user or the master account.

  2. ChatGPT Integration in InDesign for Text Editing and Proofreading

    Please add an option in InDesign to integrate text review using ChatGPT. Ideally, this would function as a standalone panel, where we could log in with our own ChatGPT account. Through this panel, we would be able to have the text checked either as a proofreader or as an editor in a special mode—for instance, if the text overflows, it could be shortened to fit the box or page. Similarly, it could generate titles based on the text.

  3. Default Sync of All Settings Across CC Applications

    Could you please enable the option to save all presets, windows, keyboard shortcuts, and all personalized settings, including Photoshop actions, brushes, and similar configurations, under the CC account? Ideally, this should be the default setting, so that after every installation, all settings for all applications, including color profiles and similar configurations, are fully copied. It's unbelievable that this hasn’t been working this way for a long time.

    It would also be great if there was an option to export settings or share them across different accounts.

  4. Add book level option to Find/Replace

    Add the option to search all documents within a book file when using find/replace. Currently, to find/replace in multiple files at once, you have to have them all open. This is inefficient if you have a huge number of files and need to make a change in all of them.

  5. Export PDF, IDML and jpeg at the same time

    It would be great if user could export document as PDF, jpeg and IDML at the same time. Something similar to package menu, but jus export menu, where user can choose several export formats

    Hi,
    i would like to have multiple team members working on the same InDesign file simultaneously. Now InDesign cloud doesn’t support it, multi-user collaboration on a single file like some cloud-based apps.

  7. Check Icon Effects Rapid ON/OFF

    I find this very frustrating every time.
    I would like to be able to activate/deactivate an effect by clicking on the check icon.

    • clicking on the check activates and deactivates the effect (on/off)
    • clicking on the name of the effect on the right should open the corresponding panel (as it already works now)

    Often to deactivate an effect I have to enter the panel to deactivate the check, this would be fine when I have to set the parameters but if I simply have to deactivate the effect I have to open a second panel that could be avoided.

    I…

  8. Add Haitian Creole as an option in the list of languages when creating 508 compliant PDFs. Our business markets to that community.

    Our company markets to South Florida communities that speak Haitian Creole. Having that language as an option when creating 508-compliant PDFs would be extremely beneficial.

  9. Free time

    I’ve been interested in online gaming for a while, so I decided to try out some online casinos. I was looking for one that offered good bonuses and wasn’t too complicated to start with. That’s when I came across https://luckyowl.biz/. The site looked simple and easy to use, plus they had great bonus deals like free spins and deposit matches for new players. The promotions kept coming even after I signed up, which was nice because it didn’t feel like a one-time thing. It’s a fun site that’s easy to use and rewarding.

  10. Gutter control on spreads for facing-pages layout that require bleed on the inside edges

    There are several requests for this that don't use correct terminology, so I'm going to add this one to hopefully consolidate votes on this long overdue feature. When working on facing-page projects that are not bound with glue, it is imperative that graphics and color that goes to the inside edge have bleed into the gutter. There is no gutter bleed support for parent pages in InDesign, requiring us to create two spreads with bleed across the gutter from either side to support pages that need that gutter bleed on export. Then we have to separate the pages in the…

  13. New Project Window, please sync with Main Window

    1. I create a New Window for the project I'm working on, and place it on a second monitor. I do this to see the presentation mode while I edit. But when I move to new pages/spreads on the Main Window, this is not reflected in the New Window. That's not a big problem if I've moved one or two spreads. But if I have moved by a hundred pages on the Main Window, it takes a long time to move the New Window these 100 pages too.

    2. It would be a really nice feature if InDesign had a Presentation Mode…

  14. Allow data merge placeholders to be used directly in QR Code URL & Text

    Data merge placeholders like <<Sample URL>> do not work when used in QR Codes.

    That would be cleaner and easier to use than the current data merge which requires the syntax described on https://helpx.adobe.com/indesign/using/data-merge.html

    The Edit QR Code dialog should be improved to support these placeholder values.

  15. Insert Kashida option in Character Style

    In Indesing UI there is an option to Insert Kashida width options: "None", "Short", "Medium", "Long" and "Stylistic" but these options are not there in Character style creation window.

    Please include this option in Character Style creation window so that it can be easier to apply type of kashida as required by the user.

  16. Useful feature request: Edit with... Photoshop/Illustrator with an Indesign Spread/Page overlay

    I would like to see an option to Edit with Photoshop or Illustrator with an Overlay, optionally at an opacity, of rest of the Indesign page/spread elements. This would aid in area retouching/color adjustments where you need to know exactly where the items are on the page in relation to the image/vector.

    Often I have to darken areas in an image behind type in Indesign and using a brush is often guess work. I have tried drop shadows and glows in the past with mixed results but usually to get specific letters to show over an image I have to…

  17. PDF Password Print (BUG and New Feature)

    As suggested by @Abhishek Rao on Adobe community
    I report here the problem and the new functionality...

    PDF Password (BUG and New Feature)

    When I export a document to PDF from Indesign (or illustrator), I would need to password protect the Copy/Modification of the elements in my PDF, at the same time allow READING and PRINTING of that PDF document.

    All this is currently ALLOWED BY "INDESIGN"! in PDF export.
    When I create a PDF with these limitations, I open it in ACROBAT and I can SEE and PRINT IT.
    When I try to MODIFY IT, Acrobat asks me for…

  18. Add Options to remove bleeds and cropmarks while Import PDF comments

    Sometimes I get PDF files with corrections to be applied to the next printing addition.
    Usually publishers apply such corrections to the production PDF, with format cropmarks .
    InDesign can import the PDF without bleeds and crop marks (as you turn on the import options), But.... unfortunately PDF Comments, there is no such option that you can opt out of crop marks and bleeds, etc.

  20. Add option to open current working folder when using "relink" option

    Hello,

    can we please have an option to open/search in current working folder (where the .indd is saved) when using relink function, rather than opening previously used links folder.

    make it a toggle option for users that prefer its current state
