Show IDLK files in Bridge for Cloud workflows
With the pandemic we've shifted from an on-premises server (which was decent at stopping people going into the same file at the same time) to using Dropbox to perform the same functions. Unfortunately it doesn't seem to respect other people's IDLK files. Finder (Mac) and File Explorer (Windows) at least show you them, so you can avoid opening a file that someone's working on but in Bridge they're hidden and there's no obvious way of overriding this behaviour.
Could we see them please? Thank you!

Text form field with several columns
In the case of a text form field, text areas that extend over several columns are automatically recognised and can also be continued in the form.
Good for the following use case: If templates are created where the text is displayed in columns, it would be good if the form fields could also be linked together. So that the maximum number of characters is automatically distributed over the specified number of columns.

Hi,
I would be happy if in the future it will be possible to export a document including layers, in PSD format.

Find and replace also looks at Layer Names
I use layers for multiple versions and when modifying layer names (as a callout on the appropriate layer) would also like the Search and Replace Function to look at the layer names as well. Example - often same files are used from quarter to quarter and it is necessary to update the date on layer or a particular code included in the layer name.

Adobe could help improve the remote production work flow for small publishing operations
Greetings.
I LOVE the Adobe Cloud suite. The only thing that's missing from the apps, which surprises me, is some sort of collaborative, drag-and-drop flatplanner capability, to tie in ads with magazine/publication production. I know subscription platforms exist, the likes of AdSalesGenius, but such a platform is way beyond our budget. We are a small-time operation with a small team.
Can't you develop an app or script that enables us to easily view the pages of our publications that are in production so we can see the updated content? Seems to me that would be an easy and natural integration…

Support for Mac Number
It would be nice if data fusion also worked with Mac Numbers without the need to export to an Excel format. It would greatly improve workflow for Numbers users.

Indexing by paragraph style...like TOC feature.
Useful for creating a roster for a large group. You would be able to create an index by paragraph style, like the functionality of Table of Contents, except that the same name on different pages wouldn't create a new entry.

Import pdf comments - make easier to copy comments, UI improvements
Hi!
Make easier to copy all or part of the comments:
currently the selection cursor doesn't appear until it's very close to the text. Make it appear immediately when it's touching the right or left edge of the comment (not the text edge).
make it more compact for PC screens (not tablets, etc). There's too much empty space and padding which means more scrolling. E.g. 1) Leftmost side is kind of mostly empty, except containing the icon of the commenting user. 2) Page number line only contains page number and could have less padding. 3) Resolve/Accept buttons line only contains…

Find / Change Format enhancements (find font variants / implement NOT logic)
I've just been conducting extensive Find / Replace operations on a number of documents, and I've been struck with a way to streamline certain operations. It's currently possible to find specific formats, either specifics relating to the typeface(s) used, size, leading, etc.; or search for specific character and / or paragraph styles.
When searching for specifics, it would be useful to be able to search for a more generic usage of 'Italic', say - so, if you search for 'Italic', it would match 'Italic', 'Bold Italic', '500 Italic', 'Oblique' etc. Currently you must search for every iteration of italic based…

Export JPEGs with Text/Art optimized export settings
I consistently use InDesign to develop static mobile and web banner and export them as JPEG or PNG. Currently I feel that the quality of the export is not as good as an export from Photoshop or Illustrator - there is no ability to prioritize the text or artwork like the two software can. Could this be added in InDesign please, maybe even mimic the save-for-web functionality from Photoshop/Illustrator.

How to put Change bar in Indesign
Hi everyone!
When working on technical documents we change/update something on page (a row, figure, text or table) and we want to put a sign (vertical line) next to that row, column or figure affected from this change.

Stop hiding the known issues, and release notes for each release
Where's the link that leads to the latest releases known issues list? It's hard enough to find the release notes for the newest version release.
It should be a simple link right under the is this compatible with your computer info in The creative cloud desktop app.
I need the list of known issues with the latest release to determine whether or not I'm going to upgrade to it or wait until a critical issue is resolved.
Sometimes an issue will not be in the feature I use so I will update other times it is something that will majorly…

PDF comments: Import, respect, and filter against comment colors in InDesign
Please make all of this available in InDesign:
– Show the comment colored in InDesign as it is in Acrobat.
– Let us filter against comment color in InDesign as it is possible in Acrobat.
By default Acrobat comments use different colors. Furthermore the Acrobat user can choose any color for a specific comment or redefine the color for a comment type as he likes to.
In Acrobat I can even filter all comments by comment color.
This is quite useful, as it gives the user a good way to distinguish e.g. between typo corrections, grammatical corrections, and other types.…2 votes
