PMS are REQUIRED FOR SPOT PRINT JOBS!!!!!
When is this essential requirement going to be addressed???????
This is not something to "consider" as a feature request. It is an essential aspect of PRINT design and technology and needs to be accessible in Illustrator, InDesign and Photoshop.5 votes -
Relinking manually? Why?
Why make the user search each image individually to relink? For some reason, some images are losing their links when the files have been in the same location on my hard drive for years. When this happens I have to go search the file name and relink manually. There has to be a very easy way to automate this.

PDF Export improvement
Great news that it is now possible to export multi page file as separate PDFs. However that automatically created (not optional) subfolder is unnecessary.

Bug in Merge paragraph borders
There is a bug in merge paragraph borders of CC 13.1. In thread text frames, the border is displayed immediately after end of paragraph.
81 votesHi,
Am moving this issue as a feature request. The idea here is to achieve an effect like: https://app.box.com/s/2eflfbxwychhln9f34tpf0yyw898w5dhCurrently this can be done by turning off the bottom border of the last frame and top border of the first frame.

Indesign Autosave
An autosave feature in Indesign would be a great addition. This could be added under the file handling menu with some options for it. A slider that allows you to set the intervals of the autosave. It would be a great addition to the auto recovery, you'd be surprised how often people forget to hit save or close it and accidentally not save when prompted.

Data Merge > Create Tagged PDF checkbox
On Data Marge > Export to PDF just let us select the "Create Tagged PDF".
For example, I have 1300 records, an 8 page document template and have to export 1300x 8pp uniquely named PDF files - files names from data.
Currently have to:
1. run the merge in groups of 100 records otherwise InDesign will hang
2. create tagged PDFs from the 13x 800pp InDesign files (50 minutes per 100)
3. combine PDFs
4. create bookmarks from content
5. split by bookmark structurePoints 1, 2 and 3 could be combined by simply allowing "Create Tagged PDF" and save…

New Create New document dialog box variables
I'd like to see the variable labels in the new Create New Document dialog box In InDesign made active so that when you click on them ID selects the current value for you to change; i.e., I'd like to see them work as most all the other entry fields work. This is a real time saver and I'm always telling my students to use this feature, not click inside a field and swipe over/highlight existing value....

Ignore pasteboard
I would like to "ignore pasteboard" when running spell-check. Often I have extra text on the pasteboard that I don't want to delete, but I don't want to wade through while spell-checking.
Related to that -- it would be great if we could indicate certain frames we don't want to spell check. I do publications that have long lists of names that take forever to work through. I don't need to spell check them. Or maybe an "ignore capitalized words" function could do that.
These would be enormously helpful to editors! Thanks.

Type scaling
I'd like to see a type scaling feature added to paragraph styles. When the project allows it I prefer to set up a "body" style and then base most of my copy styles on this one. Currently I make different header styles proportionally larger but if I ever need to change my body copy size I have to go back and change all the other head styles to match. It would be nice to set body to 10pt for instance, then set head 1 to 150% and head 2 to 125%. This would make head 1 15pt in reality and…

Enhance the new Suffix feature for exporting single Pages or single Spreads as PDF
The new Suffix feature allows three parameters: ^#, ^P and ^S. So far so good.
To make the feature complete I would suggest a couple of other parameters:^N for page names
Page names like i, ii, iii or a, b, c or 001, 002, 003 would be possible.
Also names like 200 for the first page in a document that starts with 200 for page one.^X for section prefixes ( max. of 8 characters )
^A for names of Alternate Layouts
^W for width of page
^H for height of page
^Pt , ^mm, ^In etc.pp. for unit…

Dual Screen Modal Support
Dual Screen Modal Support.
It's frustrating that apps that are so frequently updated miss the blindingly obvious.
How about real dual screen support for your modal UI.
This is the case across Photoshop and Indesign (most likely, several other products).
In this screen capture - the cursor is selected on 'tint' on a second monitor (right hand side) slide lever is on a different monitor, on the left.
Pretty frustrating, what's the point of having dual monitors, if your software doesn't support such a basic fundamental.

Enable slanted headers in tables
Right now, in order to create a "slanted" header for tables (see attached graphic) you either have to create a separate table and slant the entire object, or create a slanted effect by using lines and text boxes. It would be great if there was an option to slant the entire row of text in a table.
