Mimic Text Box
For Example: If you have a list of people and you create a text box for each person that has a number in the text box.
Further in the document you would have a map that also has the numbers showing which person is situated where.
What would be very helpful is to have those 2 numbers (1 and 1, 2 and 2, etc.) be able to auto update the other.
So when someone is removed from the list, the person numbered 10 originally now becomes 9, which also auto updates on the map

Open pages of a pdf file in a single InDesign file
I always face this problem where I need to open a single page of a pdf. file to do amendment. It’s difficulty when my client doesn’t have the working file (indd). I hope adobe is allowing me to open all pages of a pdf. file in a single InDesign.

Native AI support.
Using links within AI to keep source files small is useless if INDD is a part of the workflow because INDD will not place AI files unless PDF compatibility is turned on. Turning on PDF compatibility in AI when saving embeds all links so linking files instead of embedding them makes no difference.
Please make INDD able to place AI files that have not been saved with PDF compatibility turned on.

Condition Sets: Show overrides when the set has a +
In every other panel, when there is a style override, resulting in a + symbol, if you hover over the symbol, it will tell you specifically what the overrides are. For example, a different type size, or font family or leading or something along those lines.
But in the Condition Sets dropdown, all you get is that there are overrides. And you can either clear them or redefine the set. But if I choose to clear the overrides, I have no way of knowing what the result will be.

Restore the page overlay display in the print dialog.
I previous version of InDesign and the initial releases of InDesign 2017, you could see quite clearly what would print on the selected sheet size. In the latest update as of Aug 2017, if I change a sheet from letter to legal that has been printed previously, letter is still selected in the dialog, but due to the preview sheet being legal and cannot see that there is a size mismatch without going through the individual dialogs. For reference, the portion of the document that would not be within the printable region showed as a different shade of grey, whereas…

When you highlight text - then select something else - it would be really cool if the same text was selected when you went back to it
When you highlight a block of text - then select a different element - it would be really cool if the text was highlighted when you went back to the text box and selected it.

Can you put "Window >Type & Tables > Story" into the properties panel when working with text?
Can you put the "Story" feature from type & tables into the properties panel as a check box like hypenation?

Place Gun Enhancement
We use InDesign in our printing department to place images for printing on our Epson Printers.
At the moment we have page templates with Auto-Fit frames placed and ready to accept the various sizes of supplied images (clients always manage to supply images to the wrong dimensions).Here's what we do :
1. Call up a template.
2. CMD-D to load the Place Gun with multiple files (anything from 2 to 50 - sometimes more).
3. Click in each frame to place the loaded images.Here's where I believe the procedure could be enhanced - in fact it's the only…

Disponibilizar a função de arredondar os cantos de uma tabela feita no Adobe InDesign
Gostaria de sugerir um recurso que permita arredondar os cantos de uma tabela feita no Adobe InDesign. Atualmente isso não é possível. Mesmo que se coloque dentro de uma caixa, e a caixa arredondar, o recurso não sobrepões a tabela.
Veja o anexo.

Dynamic text for Indesign please…..
It would save so much time — while Dynamic Text isn’t perfect in Photoshop Beta, it’s still great. Since InDesign is such a typographic powerhouse, though, it would make even more sense there — far more control, styles, and layout flexibility.

Expandir columnas
Sería de gran ayuda, tanto para revistas como para periódicos, que en "Expandir columnas” en InDesign, el titular o entradillas no sea solo desde la primera columna, que se pueda elegir entre la segunda, tercera, etc.; esto evitaría cajas de textos… De esta forma, por ejemplo, se pueden centrar en una página de 6 columnas el Título y subtítulo y que el texto empiece en la primera columna…

Feedback on the Mathematical Character Feature in InDesign
Dear Adobe Team,
First of all, I would like to thank you for adding the mathematical character insertion feature to InDesign. This is a very important step, especially for users who prepare educational materials, scientific publications, or technical documents.
However, I have noticed a few limitations while using this feature:
The font of the mathematical characters cannot be changed. This makes it difficult to maintain visual consistency with the rest of the document and reduces flexibility in professional designs.
Mathematical characters are not aligned with the baseline of the surrounding text. They often appear slightly above or below the text…

Conditional Vertical Justification
Add a new option to the Vertical Justification settings for text frames: "Conditional Justify".
BehaviorWhen Conditional Justify is selected, vertical justification is applied only when the text frame is sufficiently filled. Add a numeric field: Content fill threshold (%). If the frame’s text occupies a percentage equal to or greater than this threshold, the frame receives full vertical justification. If the frame’s fill is below this threshold, the frame uses the chosen fallback alignment.Fallback option
Provide a dropdown: Fallback alignment with the classic vertical choices: Top, Center, Bottom.Notes / Suggested defaults
…Default Content fill threshold: 90% (editable).1 vote -
Precise Text Wrap Control for Column Rules
I love the Column Rules feature in the Text Frame Options Dialogue. What keeps me from using it as often as I'd like is due to how column rules interact with text wrap.
I'd like to have: 1. Numerical control of how rules wrap independent from text in the text wrap dialogue box, or: 2. The ability for rules to be locked to baseline grids. Perhaps having both would give the perfect amount of control?
Please see my screen grab attached. You will see that the body copy wraps as expected, but the column rule does not. It's sticking above…
