Place Linked IDMS
It would be awesome if we could link a IDMS file or be able to add a InDesign file to CC Libraries and be able to place that into another InDesign file. This would be great for reusing pieces of text or layout that occasionally gets updated in multiple documents. When place the IMDS there could be an option to keep the link so if the version in the library is updated so is the placed version or to place a copy that does not stay associated with the one in the Library.
I know it is possible to place…

InCopy/Word
I can appreciate InCopy's capability of linking multiple authors. I personally never have need of that. Here's what I wish InCopy could do: Take MS Word file and make them fully compatible with InDesign. That is ... to remove all the rookie techniques employed by so many Word users, to remove all the mysteriously bogus code that creates frustrating local formatting. Sometimes you can fix these things by saving the text as RTX (or DOC instead of DOCX) from Word, but that doubles the number of text files to store - unnecessarily complicated. Often authors have copied strings of text…

It is very troublesome to select fonts
It is very troublesome to select fonts from a list when managing a large number of fonts. Also, even when selecting font names by typing, it is difficult to select candidates if there is a typing error.
Please create a modern font selection feature.3 votes -

Handling of composite fonts with the same name but different settings in InDesign Japanese version
When multiple documents containing composite fonts with the same name and different settings are opened at the same time, the composite fonts in the documents opened later are forcibly duplicated and renamed. As a result, the number of composite fonts increases countlessly, which is very complicated to manage.
Please assign a unique ID to each composite font temporarily and load it into the application, so that composite fonts with the same name but different settings can coexist in the application.

Open maximised documents as NO Tabs...
...AND retain menu bar + all tools...
(We can browse open pages with ctrl + ` - tabs are not needed!)
It could help spare some place we're loosing for unneeded, visible all the time, tabs now.Similar problem - menu bar is so big... :/ It takes space, too. Couldn't be thinner? :/
Plz take a look at screenshot...

Text wrap around anchored objects needs to work according to settings, regardless of where the anchor is placed.
Text wrap refuses to wrap properly around my anchored objects regardless of anchor placement in the paragraph or text wrap offset settings.
This causes the anchored object to overlap the text and/or have inconsistent margin offset around the object. It's erratic and inconsistent among the various objects, even though they all have the exact same object style applied.
Some of the objects wrap a little better than others - at least they're not overlapping on top of text - but the wrap margins are still inconsistent. Not a single object wraps how I believe it should based on the style…

Table of Contents
Can we have another ToC option: Layout > Update All Table of Contents where there is more than one in a document.
Where there is more than one ToC they have to be updated individually every time. (I have one document with four ToC's)

Manter controle de alterações sempre ativo
Olá! Seria de grande utilidade se houvesse uma opção de sempre manter o controle de alterações ativo no Incopy, mesmo em arquivos novos. O que acontece na minha empresa é muitas vezes começarmos uma tarefa e só horas depois percebermos que o controle estava desativado. Nesse caso, não há registro das marcações feitas até então. Obrigada!

There should be something that allows you change the way it locked a little with each update. Make the the people who ***** them open work atleast a little...

Page number ranges in TOC
Table of contents don't have the ability to add page ranges.
So the contents look like this:
Section A . . . . . . . 1
Section B . . . . . . . 5
Section C . . . . . . . 9
When they should look like this:
Section A . . . . . . . 1-4
Section B . . . . . . . 5-8
Section C . . . . . . . 9
All this needs to be implemented is to have the second number be one page less than…

ability to package without first saving
When creating mechanicals I often need to break a large InDesign file up into multiples- this is extremely cumbersome due to a multitude of poor design decisions:
- Save-as kills file history
- No option to save pages as individual files
- and, no ability to use packaging to save into individual folders.
Please fix all of these

Ability to undo after save-as
Because indesign can't save individual pages as files a workaround is to delete pages and save-as, however, this inexplicable clears the undo history. Please fix this bug, and add the ability to save pages as individual files.

Ability to name pages and export individual pages as separate indesign files.
