2. Add feature to Buttons and Forms

   In the Text Field, if there could be an option for auto scalable type, which would automatically scale while writing in a interactive PDF. This would allow the writer to write without exceeding the set text field, which could later be printed instead of hidden when printed, when the scrollable option is selected. The current options are set, scrollable or set font size. It would create a more dynamic set text field.
   Also a prompt description in the text field which disappears when writing.

3. Incompatibility with Mac OS High Sierra

   I just updated my Mac OS to Sierra 10.13.2. I can no longer use my pre-2017 InDesign. The program opens but none of the console works and it gets 'stuck' so that I cannot even ask the program to close once opened. Is there a fix? Thanks.

4. Media Controller Preview

   Something that shows the user what the controllers they are selecting for a video looks like. I change the options and try the Interactivity preview but nothing changes. Reading a description on the help page of what the items in the list mean isn't helping either. A better naming system and a visual preview would be way better here.

5. Allow Linking of Conditional Text and Object Layers

   Why not allow linking of conditional text conditions to an objects layers or layer comps. This could be done through the object layer options dialog, where you could have the ability to connect existing conditions to an object, by having a tick box to enable the functionality for that specific object. You could then when it is ticked link the conditions to specific object layers or comps in the object layers dialog box.

   I appreciate the name conditional text clearly implies it's text, but it would save time in some cases to have image layers hide and show automatically when you hide and show the text conditions, without having to do it manually / separately.

   For example a real estate agent with multiple branches may want specific branch office photos / staff photos to automatically show when the condition for that branch is being shown.

6. Option to merge from PDF page other than page 1

   It would be great t have the option to use a pdf in a merge and be able to specify which page of the pdf is to be used, instead of it just being the first page all the time.

   Instead of just specifying filename in the mergefield, could we specify page number as well?

   eg something like:

   c:\docs\mypdf.pdf:2

   to use page 2 of a pdf.

7. Export images with zero padding

   When you export the naming is inpractical.
   name.png
   name2.png
   name_12.png

   Could you at least enable automatic zero padding like this:
   name01.png
   name02.png
   name_12.png

   Every week i have to rename at least 9 Files because of this.

8. Help page gives incorrect information regarding PageMaker file conversion

   Searched InDesign support for "pagemaker file conversion"
   The top article (dated March 2017) is titled "Convert QuarkXPress and PageMaker documents to InDesign". Here's the address of this page: https://helpx.adobe.com/indesign/using/converting-quarkxpress-pagemaker-documents.html This article is part of the "InDesign CC User Guide." In the right hand column, it says it applies to InDesign CC. The first sentence in the Pagemaker section is "InDesign can convert document and template files from Adobe PageMaker 6.0 and later." It proceeds to give directions. I have come to find out that these instructions cannot be followed in InDesign CC, but only in InDesign CS6. This resulted in me wasting about an hour talking to Adobe's truly worthless support representatives.
   This webpage needs to be corrected. Just replace that first sentence with: "InDesign CC cannot open or convert PageMaker files, but there is a solution. Start by downloading and installing InDesign CS6. Use CS6 to open and convert your PageMaker files (instructions below). After you save them as InDesign documents, you will be able to open them in InDesign CC."
   It is clearly in Adobe's interest to help their customers avoid contact with the Adobe support staff. Correcting this webpage will be a move in that direction.

9. Change ID's file locating from absolute addresses to relative

   When I change the name of my project folder, housing all of my ID and art/font folders, InDesign stops linking to the art folder. This is annoying. Is this happening because my art files are in a folder named something other than Links?

    2. There is no option to include a Logo. It would be great to have this option.

12. Integration of AI Text Generator in Adobe InDesign

    If InDesign had an integrated AI text generator, it would be wonderful. Having the ability to correct texts, check spelling and grammar, rewrite something that doesn't sound right, and so, would be a powerful tool for those of us working in editorial design. I think this feature is a no-brainer for a program like InDesign, but since Adobe doesn't have a text generator (that I know), we haven't seen it yet. Dreaming is free! I believe it's an incredible function, and it would be fantastic to have it in the future. Fingers crossed!

13. Ability to Name Multiple Check Boxes at Once and Deselect Radio Buttons

    I use check boxes frequently to create a multitude of order forms. There are a few requirements they need to meet: Once ticked, they can be unticked, and buttons are grouped so only one option can be selected out of a range. This has become a tedious task as I can only name one check box at a time. I would like the ability to select and name multiple check boxes at once so thye can be easily grouped, this simple change would save so much time.
    I also used to use the radio buttons, which does have the option to rename multiple buttons at once, but these can't be deselected once and option is selected. Adding the functionality for these to be deselected would be a massive help too.

14. Dynamic Data Merge Updates in InDesign even after Generated

    Currently, after completing a data merge, the generated document loses its link to the source Excel/CSV file, making it impossible to update content (like product names or prices) without re-running the entire merge. This becomes a major issue when we've manually added custom pages, layout tweaks, image adjustments, or element placements based on text length—re-merging resets everything.

    Suggestion:
    Introduce a "Dynamic Merge" option in the Data Merge panel that maintains live links to the CSV/Excel source. This way, users can choose between a static or dynamic output. With dynamic mode, merged fields remain linked and identifiable, allowing easy content updates from the original data file without losing layout changes.

    This would save huge amounts of time and prevent repetitive layout work.

    Thanks!

16. Provide Options for Export to Express

    Please provide choices when using the export to Adobe Express function. Right now there are none, and I cannot directly export a high resolution, letter-sized, print-ready document into Express without dimension downsizing and image resolution loss.

    Having these options via a direct transfer into Express is critical to being able to quickly transfer current Indesign documents into correctly-sized, print-ready, editable templates for use bt non-design users at my organization.

17. Option to save GenAI expanded files in different locations.

    I like to save all associated files with individual jobs. It keeps thing together as the company uses a job number system for each Job (like a lot of Design companies in UK).

    At the moment, InDesign saves everything in Documents > InDesign GenAI Assets Folder including all alternative AI options. The option to choose where to save the AI files would be great.

    Also... 300dpi images would be amazing!

19. Check GenAI Images in Preflight

    Add GenAI images to Preflight profiles. This is especially important since GenAI images default to saving to the user's computer, which is not ideal in a collaborative environment where other users will see broken links.

20. Performance on Apple Silicon

    I’m writing to report ongoing performance issues in Adobe InDesign that the latest update unfortunately hasn’t resolved.

    On my Apple Silicon Mac Studio (M2 chip, 64 GB RAM, 2 TB SSD) running macOS Sonoma 15.1.1 (24B91), even simple tasks like switching between a text box (T) and an object (V) have a noticeable delay of about half a second. This was never an issue on my older Intel-based MacBook Pro with Adobe CS, and it’s making normal daily work in InDesign frustratingly slow.

    For comparison, Illustrator performs flawlessly, with instant responses as expected, making the difference between the two apps striking.

    I’ve already tried troubleshooting steps such as reinstalling the app, clearing the cache, and resetting preferences, but the issue persists, leading me to believe it may be related to the code.

    Could you please advise on how to resolve this? I would greatly appreciate any assistance.
