  1. Export Seperation PDFs

    I want to be able to export seperation pdfs so I can make plates with crop marks directly from my working file. Currently it can only be done through post script files and it is barely functional to say the least.

  2. Quickbooks error 12029

    Quickbooks error 12029 https://qberror.com/quickbooks-error-12029/ is a vexing technical issue that arises when the software is unable to connect to the server. QuickBooks is well-known for providing numerous benefits to small- and medium-sized business owners and accountants. With the help of this programme, you can manage your sales, income, expenses, and inventory in real time and gain precise insights into your business's success. Technical challenges may happen while using the accounting software's various features and tasks, causing your procedure to be hampered. QuickBooks error 12029 is a comparable technical problem with QuickBooks that might drive you insane.

  3. Reinclude the cutter tool

    The cutter tool has not been included as it was in old Pagemaker This tool is very useful. Without this tool, if you import an Autocad drawing, it is not possible to resize the content to the frame. I recommend to include this tool as it was in Pagemaker.

  4. QR error correction level

    It would be nice to have more control over the QR code generator. To be more specific: add the option to choose de Error Correction Level of the code.
    That way we can make small codes smaller, (especially in combination with a url-shortner) or normal codes slightly bigger to have enough error correction to have a gap in the middle (for a logo).

  5. Double Click Parent page name to open options

    Double Click Parent page name to open options

    Because that's what the user is used to from other apps.

  7. Better UI for Round Corners dialog

    Each corner represented by an icon oriented in the corresponding way.
    I think this can help user to work more intuitive.

  8. Let InDesign pick RGB colors from RGB images in RGB Blend Space

    InDesign will be used for onscreen documents ore and more.
    Please facilitate that in the eyedropper.

    Maybe an easy switch to make a document RGB or CMYK would help (like in Ai).

  9. Exclude Parameters from Paragraph Styles

    A bit CSS-like.
    E.g. exclude Character Color from a Paragraph Style, to allow changing all but color by editing the style.
    Comes in handy when text is colored manually per story, but the typeface has to be changed for all stories.

  11. Align points

    It would be really helpful if it was possible to align points in InDesign. I use guides to align points, but it's not quite as accurate as I want it to be. Thanks!

  13. Frame fitting option auto-fit image to a percentage

    It would be helpful when using an Object Style that uses the frame-fitting option to include a percentage value, so for instance "place image proportionally at 100%"

  14. Pdf-files export to Indesign

    I am missing the following function in Indesign: You have, as an example, 100 pdf files, format A4, and you want to print them 2 on an A3 sheet, but in such a way that the pdfs number 1 to 50 are shown on the left in the file/paper, and on on the right the pdf's of nr 51-100. If you then cut the A3 in the middle, you have two piles with all the PDFs in order of number.

  15. Data merge

    Recently I started using InDesign to make user manuals, but I wanted to make it easier to adapt it to the multiple products. I would like you to add an option where I can use multiple categorie variations on the same page underneath each other for the multiple languages that I need to include in the manual.

    Thanks in advance!

  16. Data Merge for spreads

    it should be possible to export Data Merge directly to PDF as spread. So you don't have to create an InDesign-File first or edit your InDesign-File to generate an single page file.

  17. Adjust text in frame to the right

    Text tool. If you have too much text for a text frame with a small amount of text (e.g. 1-10 words), the text frame should enlarge to the right instead of downwards by using the keyboard command cmd+alt+c.
    It would improve the workflow significantly, since you don't always have to drag the text box "right" again afterwards.

  18. Text Frame Auto-Size in story mode (linked frames)

    Dear Indesign Development Team,

    Please fix the Auto-Size Text Frame feature in InDesign. When running a story through multiple text frames the Auto-Size feature does not work. The feature should recognize the Frame Break or Column Break symbol as the end of the text in a frame and Auto-Size the frame accordingly. Please! I am tired of hacking my way through features to get the result I want while I feel it should be real simple.

    Comment and vote if you agree.

  19. Indesign Thumbnails for Windows Explorer

    Hi Adobe!

    I recently switched from CorelDRAW to Adobe, and the "No Thumbnails for explorer" drives me nuts.

    Adobe seems to be trying to force us to use Bridge instead of Windows Explorer, but I'm not interested in using BR, I want to see my files directly in Explorer.

    Please fix this issue!


    See my post here:

  20. Book Sections

    It should be possible to define a section in a book that spans multiple documents. At the moment, I have to redefine a section at the start of each document.

    There's no easy way to create a book of essays, grouped into sections and rearrange the essays and sections at will, renaming as I go, without huge time investments.
