ID Plugin App for ChatGPT
I am an independent author and publisher using Adobe InDesign to prepare books for print and digital publication.
I strongly encourage Adobe to prioritize an official InDesign integration with ChatGPT. I need a conversational interface that can work directly with an InDesign document, inspect the full layout, adjust paragraph and character styles, manage parent pages, preserve Hebrew and right-to-left text, identify overset text and page-flow problems, update the table of contents, run preflight checks, and help export a print-ready PDF.
The current InDesign interface has a difficult learning curve for independent writers who need professional book production but are not…

Request for Native HEX Color Support in Adobe InDesign for Modern Digital Workflows
I would really like the ability to use HEX color values directly in InDesign. I understand that InDesign is primarily designed with print workflows in mind, where CMYK and spot colors are the standard, but more and more of us are working in hybrid or fully digital environments.
As teams continue to move their entire design workflows into Adobe Creative Cloud, having better support for digital-first color systems would make a big difference. Being able to input HEX codes natively would help bridge the gap between design tools and web or UI workflows, where HEX is the standard.
It would…

Add an option to disable the downloading or saving of embedded videos
Please include an option to disable the downloading or saving of embedded videos in Adobe InDesign documents. This feature would be extremely useful for designers, publishers, and businesses that distribute interactive PDFs or digital publications containing licensed or proprietary video content. Currently, users who receive these documents may be able to extract or save embedded media files, which can create copyright, security, and content protection concerns.
Adding a setting that allows creators to restrict video downloading while still permitting playback inside the document would help protect intellectual property and give publishers more control over how their media is shared. It…

InDesign Import and Export
It would be most helpful to me since I design books, tear-sheets, posters, newsletter that are made fore print and are shown on the web too. Import - When we have a form in PDF format that is asked to be shown, instead of placing it directly into InDesign file it doesn't work, we need to place JPGS instead. Exporting these products that are for print as web format SVG is impossible! Web service requires SVG for catalogue, everything I make can be deigned in Illustrator but arranged in InDesign, but if I export as EPS then open it into…

Home screen - Please put your creative hats on and re-design for functionality
I love and hate the Home Screen. I would really like to see Adobe really think through the reason for this screen's existence. The simple fact that you cannot reorder, delete, or organize the list is limiting. The additional fact is that, in some recent updates, the hover to see the "path" is no longer available.
Bottom line: this is valuable real estate that is going to waste or cause more frustration than it's worth because it feels more like an afterthought than a conscious UX/UI decision.
You guys are awesome creatives, and I know there are tons of things…1 vote -

DATA MERGE - Multiple or Single Page Import from Ai or PDF
I would like to be able to import multiple artboards or pages from an Illustrator file or PDF document when using Data Merge.
For example:
Column K
@Images
R:\Customer\SALES ORDERS\SOnumber\Working\01-0001.ai:1 ( Design to be printed in Artboard 1 )Column L
@Images
R:\Customer\SALES ORDERS\SOnumber\Working\01-0001.ai:2 ( Spot colours listed in Artboard 2 )I use Data Merge for creating Prepress proofs for large orders, and we have to show the design to be printed and the spot colours used on each document.
The issue is that InDesign won't list the colours used per page only per document, so my solution is…

Adding Uzbek spell checking / hyphenation
Hi, InDesign team! I'm coming from Uzbekistan, we build various NLP solutions for Uzbek (spoken by 40 mln people around the world). Recently we made an add-in for InDesign that handles hyphenation and spell checking for Uzbek. However, it's still an add-in, so we have to update its versions over time – we wonder if it's possible to add this feature to InDesign itself so this language will be native in newer InDesign versions.
We're open for any type of collaboration, we'd be very glad if you add our language into the program, we can provide all resources and models…

Create a tool called Work Checker.
I propose that the developers create a tool called "Work Checker." This tool would feature a screen where any design with multiple pages could be presented like a video. The "Player" should offer adjustable speeds to navigate through the pages. What would the benefit be?
This tool would allow us to compare our layouts in a "spatial" way, making it easier to ensure that the elements on each page maintain aesthetic coherence throughout the entire piece. It would also help identify any "jumps" in elements that disrupt the overall design aesthetic.

File save revisions
I will explain with an example, I will be working on a design and saves it.

ai generation
Indesign is saving ai generate images in documents system drive by default, which causes problems when I work sometimes from home and at time out of the office on my laptop. Also problems making packages.
With the new version came out, I was surprised that we still can't choose our wanted prefered lacation - like a shared driver so I can access those ai generated images from anywhere. I still have to go to Utilities, copy links to - FOR EVERY SINGLE JOB. It's impossible to work like this.
Would appreciate a fix1 vote -

Subject: Request to Reintroduce Removed Features and Add New Enhancements in the Latest Adobe Version
Manual Second-Line Indent Adjustment Using Shift Key:
In earlier versions, within the Tab Settings panel, we were able to manually adjust the second-line indent by pressing and dragging with the Shift key. This provided precise and quick control over hanging indents. In the current version, this functionality has been removed, causing difficulty in achieving the same results efficiently. New Features Requested for Addition:Missing “Title Case” Option in Paragraph Style > Basic Character Formats:
Previously, users could set text to “Title Case” directly inside Paragraph Style > Basic Character Formats. In the latest version, this option no longer appears, forcing…
