  2. Add a "Duplicate" file feature much like Photoshop has.

    Would love to have a "duplicate file" feature much like Photoshop has so we can create a new version while keeping the existing document open in its current state.

  3. Larger area when moving page/spreads or duplicating via alt drag

    REQUEST
    Make the area for "dropping" a page/spread larger and on above and below pages/spreads.

    ISSUE
    The current area to "drop" a page/spread is small and inconsistent (see attached video). It also limited to the left or right of a page/spread, NOT above or below.

    GOAL
    Move or duplicate a page to a specific location in the document, more efficiently.

    REASON
    Duplicate page command sends the duplicate to the end of the document, which typically needs to be moved to another location in the document, thus highlighting the issue regardless of moving or duplicating via alt/option drag.

    STEPS
    Select a…

  4. Add more than 1 color swatch at a time to CC Libraries

    I'd like to add a group of color swatches in one quick instead of one by one. It would save me a lot of time!

  5. adobe stock

    liking the stock images in ID panel. iStock is still easier to use for one reason -- the photos are huge and even bigger when clicked on to comp.

  6. Tool for sustainable Design

    Hello dear Adobe team,

    At the moment there is a lot of talk about environmental problems and sustainability. Responsible use is particularly important when it comes to the use of finite and regenerative resources.

    The AGD has developed a charter for sustainability for this purpose. "Designers are largely responsible for
    how our world is shaped. Design shapes, design is a role model and creates
    new awareness. Design consumes resources - sometimes more,
    sometimes less. The sustainable use of natural resources,
    with the environment and with the people who have remained in this world for generations
    should be able to live,…

  7. Dynamic Page height

    An option to allow page height to auto adjust with content.

    This would be handy when linking one indesign document into another, such as a catalogue, each product and description etc would sit in the linked indesign file on separate pages, possibly data merged and then placed into working file. If the height of the linked pages where all auto adjusted to height of the content the pages could all be inserted with minimal effort and perfect spacing.

  8. CC Library - PARENT SLIDES

    Being able to drag and drop parent slides from CC would save me considerable time going back and forth when a look has been altered in e.g. company templates.

  9. Child object styles to inherit parent size and position

    Object Style 1 includes width and/or height specs.
    Object Style 2 is based on Object Style 1.
    When Object Style 1's width/height specs are changed, they are not reflected in Object Style 2.
    The only option seems to be 'Reset to base' in Object Style 2.

    Please make it so that child object styles also inherit Size and Position settings.

  10. Export Seperation PDFs

    I want to be able to export seperation pdfs so I can make plates with crop marks directly from my working file. Currently it can only be done through post script files and it is barely functional to say the least.

  12. Reinclude the cutter tool

    The cutter tool has not been included as it was in old Pagemaker This tool is very useful. Without this tool, if you import an Autocad drawing, it is not possible to resize the content to the frame. I recommend to include this tool as it was in Pagemaker.

  13. Let InDesign pick RGB colors from RGB images in RGB Blend Space

    InDesign will be used for onscreen documents ore and more.
    Please facilitate that in the eyedropper.

    Maybe an easy switch to make a document RGB or CMYK would help (like in Ai).

  15. Align points

    It would be really helpful if it was possible to align points in InDesign. I use guides to align points, but it's not quite as accurate as I want it to be. Thanks!

  17. Pdf-files export to Indesign

    I am missing the following function in Indesign: You have, as an example, 100 pdf files, format A4, and you want to print them 2 on an A3 sheet, but in such a way that the pdfs number 1 to 50 are shown on the left in the file/paper, and on on the right the pdf's of nr 51-100. If you then cut the A3 in the middle, you have two piles with all the PDFs in order of number.

  18. Data merge

    Recently I started using InDesign to make user manuals, but I wanted to make it easier to adapt it to the multiple products. I would like you to add an option where I can use multiple categorie variations on the same page underneath each other for the multiple languages that I need to include in the manual.

    Thanks in advance!

  19. Make EXPORT and print dialogues more correct

    The “spreads” function when combined with bleeds or trims options should warn to the effect that “Printers rarely accept spreads are you sure?”

    While we are at it, the standard pressready setting should include bleeds.

    Sick of sending back files advising that spreads is not a "print ready" and explaining what bleed is and how include bleed on pdf.

  20. Adobe's out-of-date "Check Spelling" system

    For long documents, every copy-conscious designer uses InDesign's "Check Spelling" feature. I think we can all agree it can be improved; the functionality and interface have changed very little since InDesign's inception.

    We need an "Ignore Capitalization" button/feature:

    InDesign users spend most of their spell-check time clicking the "Skip" or "Ignore All" buttons: skipping capitalization issues (where there are forced line breaks or lead-in lines styled in all caps, making the uncapped offender a benign issue), skipping proper names, skipping the plural and possessive versions of words we've already confirmed as legitimate. Why aren't there buttons for "Ignore Capitalization" and…
