Binding option for everyone
I would like to request that the Binding option (Left/Right) be made available in all document types and regional settings, not just in specific templates or page presets.
We are a publishing company based in Hungary, and we regularly publish Japanese manga titles. The materials we receive from Japan are prepared in InDesign with right-to-left page order (Right Binding). Unfortunately, once we open or localize these files, the Binding option is often locked or unavailable, which means we cannot simply flip the reading direction.
As a result, we have to manually recreate or copy all pages into a new document with the correct binding setting, which is both time-consuming and error-prone.
Having the Binding setting accessible and editable at any time — regardless of language or document preset — would greatly improve international publishing workflows, especially for teams handling manga, Arabic, or Hebrew layouts.
Thank you very much for considering this improvement. It would make InDesign even more powerful for multilingual and global publishing projects.
