1. Enable the user to select specific pages, spreads or page ranges to share for review

   I would like to be able to create a link (to share for review) for specific pages or page ranges, so I can send a stakeholder the work applicable to them and not sharing my whole document with them.

2. Implementing "Grep styles" like a "Character style"

   Grep styles deserve to be used like any existing style.

   This means:
   1 - Having a panel where we can create/modify/ delete any grep style (similar use as the Character style panel)

   2 - Having the Paraph.style/Grep styles section revamped.
   There, a drop down list allows the user to select existing Grep styles (If any)

   3 - a "+" button allows to add and implement some more Grep styles
   This allows to use multiple grep styles

   The added value is to create only once a list of grep style actions. They can then be connected to paragraph styles easily.

   This need is coming from several issues that I'm am facing today:

   • Paragraph styles that are already based on a specific paraph.style cannot be based on another paragraph style where the Grep style could be. Therefore, the grep styles actions have to be written down on all of them. (waste of productivity)

   • Fonts almost never have all the bold/ italic/etc. properties. Therefore, depending on the font, we need to adjust the target of the modification, for the same words. Being able to duplicate/ modify a Grep style would be a huge save of time.

   Grep styles deserve to be used like any existing style.

   This means:
   1 - Having a panel where we can create/modify/ delete any grep style (similar use as the Character style panel)

   2 - Having the Paraph.style/Grep styles section revamped.

3. Add track changes also to foot notes

   If you use track changes its a problem that texts in foot notes aren't tracked.
   Some type of documents (like financial documents) need trail of changes. Its even a legal request in some cases. So if you depend on the track changes function its a big problem that foot notes aren't tracked. Used to be the same with tables long time ago but that one is now tracked since many versions back...

   Seems like other also asked about this.

4. Icon Localization for Asian Users

   I am a Korean user.
   The menu and description is well displayed in Korean.
   But why does the Japanese Hiragana 'あ' appear on the letter ratio icon and the lettering icon?
   Does Chinese users see that icon too?

   It seems that CJK version is using icons together while localizing.
   If Adobe respects each country's culture, I would like to change that icon to suit each country.
   (ex: '가' for Korean users)
   If that's difficult, I'd like to mark it with the alphabet 'A'.

5. Store GREP strings in Library

   I often have to use the same long GREP strings in multiple documents and for multiple projects (eg. custom targeting of words and/or characters at the end of a paragraph to avoid orphans). Depending on the context, it can get complicated. I currently have a spreadsheet so I don't have to reformulate every time I need one, but I would like to store them as easily as character or paragraph styles so I can reference them again and again.

6. Add real Next Page Number / Previous Page Number

   At present, Next Page Number and Previous Page Number actually means Next Text Frame Page Number / Previous Text Frame Page Number. It is very confusing. I suggest to add real Next Page Number / Previous Page Number which would add – surprise! – next page number and previous page number to the text.
   It would be very helpful, in situations you want to have page numbers only at one page of a spread (10/11, 12–13 etc). At the moment, there is only a stupid and slow workaround with linked text frames, which does not work in every situations.

7. Multi Level Running Headers with Numbering

   Add the ability to have multiple running headers. Specifically for multi-level lists that include numbering. Currently you can only select one paragraph style and it doesn't include numbering. It would be great to be able to create breadcrumbs for multi-level lists so you can show which section and subsection you're in INCLUDING NUMBERING. Currently the running header drops the numbering which is annoying.

8. Remove color group folder when all swatches in it are selected by "Select all unused"

   If all swatches are selected in a group folder by using the "Select all unused" option, also remove the group folder. This will make the workflow for cleaning up the swatches faster by only taking one action instead of also having to remove an empty group folder.

9. Allow designers to "group pages" for to provide easier re-organization

   Similar to grouping layers in photoshop and illustrator or styles in INDD, you should provide the folder option inside the pages panel to "group pages" to make sections easier to reorder.

10. Thesaurus

    Hi
    I have just spent 1.5 hours on a chat with your team re using a thesaurus function in InDesign (which there isn't one)
    In design is a great product and amazingly intuitive with (almost) all the functions you need to create great documents however to use a simple function like a thesaurus I need to export to a .icml thingy which creates individual files for every chapter or section (filling up my files). Then you have to open each section individually in InCopy, which then creates a document that looks more like a 80' dot-matrix print out with no formatting or font detail etc, do you thesaurus work then hope the changes don't ***** up your formatting in the indesign document when it relinks.

    Could I suggest adobe just add a thesaurus tab in InDesign. I can't see it being that difficult, I mean even microsoft has managed to have it in 'word'

    Note it is actually easier to just copy text into word, use thesaurus, then copy it back than go through the pain of InCopy

    Please just add thesaurus

    Thanks
    Pete

11. Include possibility to switch writing direction for Hebrew and Arabic in all language versions, not just the ME one.

    I am using the Swedish version of InDesign CC and sometimes need to be able to write in Hebrew. But the possibility to change writing direction is only available in the Middle Eastern version, which changes all menus and panels into English. I want to be able to keep all menus and panels in Swedish, but still be able to switch writing direction for Hebrew (and Arabic). I suggest that you include this possibility in all language versions, not just the ME one, so that the original local language can still be used in the user interface.

12. QR WiFi Code generation

    QR codes can embed a WiFi password and network information to automatically join the network when scanned. It would be great if the QR Code Generator in InDesign could add this type of QR Code into its capabilities!

13. InDesign Preflight should be pressready (default)

    InDesign Preflight should be pressready (default)
    Bleed 3 mm, no low-resolution images,
    no RGB-swatches, no missing links or fonts,
    no missing glyphs.
    That would be great.

14. A facility to tell what settings are 'inherited' from another style

    I think it would be beneficial to be able to quickly identify which properties in a cell style etc. inherit from a parent style.

    If you look at my child.png , it is "Based On" parent.png. However, you can't see in the child what settings have been "learned" from the parent. It would be nice if the inherited characteristics appear with a light grey background or a little star or something suitable to distinguish them from the edits that are child-specific.

    In my case, how this situation caused minor confusion is that I had "no idea" why the background fill colour for my new child cell style was coming out orange. Well, of course, I knew, but it took a while to find the setting that needed changing.

    That is because I wanted to edit the fill colour, and my mind was looking for a setting that showed up in bright orange. My brain was not thinking "search for Fill Colour", it was thinking "I'm looking for something in bright orange that shouldn't be bright orange anymore because it looks awful"; less a few swear words in between.

    Then again, maybe this inability is simply a characteristic of this particular blade for settings strokes for cell borders. I find that I need to control different attributes for each of the four borders of a cell.

    For this particular blade, it is a very confusing process. I struggle to work out what borderline I am editing and what borderline I am leaving alone. I often destroy the edits that I have made to one of the other cell borders in the process.

    I think I have figured out how to border selector works, but the choice of blue and black without any explanation as to what blue or black means is almightily confusing.

    Kind regards
    Mike Howell

15. Show only Font familys in Font preview

    Since the latest layout change the font searchbar improved, BUT it takes way longer to actually find a font, becouse every Version of the font is displayed, instead of the whole Family (so Arial Bold, Arial Medium etc... instead of Arial, Futura, etc). This is especially confusing, when working with similar named font familys or diffenrt varants of familys. I would suggest a option in the preferences of all Adobe programs to change etween family preview and single style preview, with the first set as default.

16. Allow full functionality for publishing online - blend modes, page transitions, etc w/animated objects

    I've been working with a new media document that has video, sound and artwork to export as an interactive graphic novel - When animating objects, blend modes are not retained. Page transition feature - "turning page" also not supported.

    Spoke with adobe and verified all tonight... he said "I'm trying to do something new". XD I could see this being very useful for graphic novel designers and other new media applications in the film and streaming space as well - would love to have this functionality in the next update so I can finish this project!

    Have found no other way besides learning html code (not going to happen) to create this type of media and would love to use indesign features already built in!

17. Stop appending the word "folder" to all package folder names

    I really really really hate that I have to waste 8 keystrokes (yes, I count the down-arrow to get to the end of the package name) on every single package I make. At least give me the option to change the default suffix.

18. Make "Justify Text Next to an Object" work in all cases

    As it stands, text wrapping around an object only responds to this preference (and justifies) when it wraps around the left and right sides of the object. It should work even if it only wraps around one side.

19. Google Photos and Docs Integration

    It would be great if you could place photos or text from Google services - Google Photos, Google Docs, Google Drive. InDesign would simply need to integrate the Google APIs for those services, then it would be seamless to import these objects - better yet would be supporting of links, so edits to Docs could be updated in InDesign the same way changed photos show update status of linked photos.
