Create button to open PDF file in a separate tab, from InDesign
If I create an interactive PDF with a button to open another PDF, it overrides the currently open PDF with no route back to the original PDF. In InDesign, it would be useful to be able to tell the button to open the file separately rather than overriding the original. This is obviously only an issue if it's a PDF as other file types will naturally open in their native program, ie: .doc for Word.
The current work-around for this is to create a link field directly in Acrobat to open the file, as this allows for opening PDF's in…

Updating numbers only in a table of contents
We should have two options when it comes to update a table of contents.
1- Update entire table
2- Update page numbers onlyWord allows it. Why don’t InDesign too?
I’ll be waiting for this change in next update! It’ll change my life!

Allow to export pdf with comments for archival purposes
Once we are done with a project, we package all of our files and upload to our server. It would be nice to be able to export the reviewed documents as pdfs that include all of the comments made. Just for archival purposes in case we ever go back and wonder why certain changes were made.

CJK and Arabic Toolsets
I frequently have to typeset Japanese, Chinese and Arabic, and it's very unfortunate the interfaces for the language tools cannot all be included in the same version.
My understanding is that every version of the software is identical under the hood, and there's a simple hidden parameter that enables the different language tools after a reboot, but it would allow for a much smoother workflow if this could be done within the software. For example, under Workspaces have the option to choose workspaces that use a different language toolset, with a reboot required if necessary. Can this be addressed in…

Improvements to the publish online platform
It would be interesting to improve the "Publish Online" platform, such as adding options to flip the pages of digital files in interactive pdf. Add visualization options by region in Analytics. Making it easier for the developer and users.
And also add resources for ebooks.
And also organization options. As creating folders, it would help a lot.1 vote -
add the ability to move from the type tool to the move tool with a right click or hold down a key
switching from type tool to the move tool while your cursor is inside a text box can't be done by simply pressing the v key because it will put a v in the copy you are working with. Currently the solve is 1) push escape, then the v key-a real pain 2) click off the text box that you are working on, push the v key, go back to the text box and click on it to move it-slightly inconvenient.
So would it make sense to have a right click with the move (V) tool at the very top of…

Full screen mode while in portrait view on iPhone and other devices
It might just be my olddd iPhone 6 but portrait view always leaves navigation bar and footer bar on screen when viewing.
Now until responsive layouts become a feature (wish), then if we want to create a portrait layout publication/document for viewing on a device, full- screen doesn't happen for me and others. It would nice to be able to enable this, as in landscape view.

SVG Import/Export with device-cmyk()
Please respect
device-cmyk()beside its RGB/hex color value for CMYK output in SVG file import and – if it will hopefully be implemented soon – in SVG file export of InDesign, e.g.
<circle fill="#CD853F device-cmyk(0.11, 0.48, 0.83, 0.00)" />6 votes -
Add Preview in New Colour/Gradient Swatch Window
It's strange that one can preview in the Swatch Options window, but not when creating a new colour or gradient swatch.
I'm using 15.1.3 תומך עברית edition.

Please give the option to remove the "home" bar (the one with the house on it)
In indesign, there is currently no way I can find to remove this bar that wants to live at the very top of my screen. I don't use it, it takes up valuable space and it has no purpose (at least for me). I want the option to turn it off, just like I can turn off the frame (which I don't use either). thank you
ps adobe support told me to post here for the issue.3 votes -

Import PDF comments: Acrobat 'Set Status' options; keep Acrobat file in sync.
Marking comments as resolved/unresolved in InDesign is not comprehensive enough: the full options available in Acrobat need to be available in InDesign. Also, the source PDF file needs to be updated to reflect what has been done in InDesign.
- Rather than just 'Resolve', InDesign needs to show the full 'Set Status' menu from Acrobat.
- Once the full 'Set Status' menu is in place, marking comments as 'Completed', etc., in InDesign needs to be reflected in the source commented PDF file so it is fully in sync.

Bring back "PDF already open in Acrobat" alert when trying to export to PDF.
Several versions ago, a dialogue box would alert the user the current PDF is already open in Acrobat and cannot be overwritten. I miss that alert because INDD will work to generate the PDF but if its already open it won't actually update.

Add the nine grid positioning feature when adjusting InDesign document size.
Channeling the canvas size feature in Photoshop here. Would be nice to set the location when changing INDD document sizes when art is already on a page.

Import formatting from PDF comments
InDesign should apply what ever it recives from the PDF. The formating options for the comments are pretty limited – Bold, Italic, Underline, ...
If I accept a comment that has italic characters, the formatted text would be [italic].
If I accept a comment that has bold characters, the formatted text would be [bold].
If I accept a comment that has bold italic characters, the formatted text would be [bold italic].
If I am using a font that does not have an Italic weight (Maybe it uses Regualre Italic), the text would just recive the standart missing font warning (The…
