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.

Automatic back-linking to endnote source in text
At the moment, endnotes in exported pdfs are hyperlinked to the endnote page, but there is no "round-trip" backlink from the endnote entry number back to the point of origin in text - as there is in exported epub documents.
This would be a very useful feature!2 votes -
When creating hypertext links, please add the ability to configure the link to open in a new browser window.
Many of the PDFs I create are opened and viewed via Web browser. It's annoying to the user -- and takes them away from our content -- when they click on a link and the link opens in the same browser tab.

Add a "Clear All Alerts" button option to Background Tasks utility
Sometimes I need to export files at a different setting to my ICC profiles setting and I have to clear the alerts after I have exported. It's very frustrating when I am exporting multiple times that I then have to select each individual file before deleting. Can we not have a "Clear All" option for multiple alerts, please? It would save lots of time when deleting.

Support "Go-to-Page Button" interactivity in a PDF
It would be nice to create a BUTTON that links to another page in the document (PDF).
Don't quite understand why this type of button interactivity is "dropped" in the first place.

PDF preset that includes a stored password
When making PDFs, I'd like a way to make a preset that includes a stored password. When you have to make many PDFs with security, it's very time consuming to enter the same info over and over.

File-size Preview
Seeing the estimated file-size preview prior to export taking place would be a huge benefit, when trying to hit a certain file size limit.
At least begin by allowing for file-size preview for files up to, say, 50mb? Then as time goes on, improve this feature.

PDF tags are lost when placed in InDesign
When I place any PDF in Indesign (and this I do very often), which include pre-created accessible PDFs, the tags go away and the complete exported Pdf becomes inaccessible and tag-less.
The only tag that I get in the exported PDF is <Figure> tag.
