  1. Examine an Existing PDF and Use Its Exporting Settings

    Add the ability for Indesign (and other PDF-creating CSS apps) to read the settings used to create an existing PDF.

    I understand that this would require new PDF format feature: the ability to store the PDF creation settings in a PDF file directly. (I've added that suggestion as "Include PDF Export Settings in PDF Files" under the Acrobat feature request section.)

    The goal is for a user to be able to easily export a new PDF with the same export settings as those of an existing PDF—something which is currently frustratingly difficult to do.

  2. Can InDesign assign attributes automatically in the XML while exporting it for translation purposes to identify new and translated content.

    InDesign shoudl assign unique attributes automatically in the XML while exporting it for translation purposes to diffentiate the new and already translated content in the file.

    When there is an update to an already translated file, and when we need to extract and resend the XML file which contains both the new content and the already translated content, the XML should contain unique attributes for the body content or must atleast have an option to tag the translated content with one specific attribute and the new content with a different one so that the translation team can identify the differences…

  3. Test internal page hyperlinks in presentation mode

    I don't know if this can even be possible, but it would be great to be able to test internal page hyperlinks in presentation mode (command + W), so that I don't have to export the PDF every time to test, rectify and test again. It will be especially useful for interactive PDFs with 100+ pages.

    Thank you!

  5. Linked text frames inside text threads keep links

    When a linked text frame is placed on the page, it updates its contents when the parent linked text frame changes. But if one copies that text frame and pastes it inside a text thread, it appears to have a link icon, but the link is actually broken and will not update with the parent text any more.
    I am trying to use this to have a callout box for a construction procedure that is duplicated is several places in my document. I want them to be inline of my text as other instruction steps will change, and reflow the…

  6. Please enable pinch zoom in and zoom out using a touchpad on Window 10 in Adobe InDesign 2024

    My Surface laptop does not enable me to pinch zoom in and zoom out using a touchpad on Window 10 in Adobe InDesign. I was previously using a mac with a magic trackpad and had no issues zooming in and out in Adobe programs. I realize I can use work-arounds like CTRL + / -, but this takes more time and I have less control.

  8. Indesign should be fully compatible with Powerpoint

    Clients are demanding more and more presentations made on Powerpoint than reports made in Indesign. Sometimes, even reports made in Powerpoint. Designers like me are spending much more time nowadays on Powerpoint than Indesign.

    Adobe will lose those designers.

    Indesign must be fully compatible with PowerPoint.

  9. Enable the deletion of button rollover state once it's been created

    Once you've created a button AND applied a rollover state, you can't currently delete it. I know you can "hide" it, and I know you can convert the button back to an object, but I want the ability to delete the rollover state once it's been created. Similar to a multi-state object, it would be great if we can delete the rollover state (like you can do with individual states in an MSO).

  15. interactive form checkmark

    When building an interactive form with a check list, would be nice to have the checkmark customizable either by font or upload my own icon. The standard one used is not the prettiest.

    When it comes to managing and converting email data, the process to convert OST files step by step to PST format is essential for Outlook users needing to archive, transfer, or access their email data outside of its original environment.

  18. Google search in Indesign

    Hi!

    I want to be able to make a google-search from within an indesign-article/-text, by marking a word/phrase, right click and end up in the web browser with a search result based on my marking in Indesign. That couldn’t be to difficult to script, but a huge help.

    All the best!
