  1. Add Keep With Previous/Next Rows to Cell Styles

    It is often necessary to keep a subtotal row together with one or two preceding rows, or to keep a subtitle/header row together with one or two following rows.
    This is already possible manually via the Keep With option in Cell Options, but having it available as a Cell Style option would make table formatting much more efficient and consistent.

  3. Increase bounding box line thickness via Preferences > User Interface Scaling > Anchor Points, Handle, and Bounding Box Display Size

    I would like the option in Preferences > User Interface Scaling > Anchor Points, Handle, and Bounding Box Display Size to be able to thicken the bounding box lines more. The Anchor Points and Handle are plenty big even with low scaling, but even with large scaling, the lines don't get thick enough for me to see well on my high-res display. Thanks for considering.

  4. "Preview" checkbox selected by default in ALL dialog boxes

    Please make it to where the "Preview" checkbox starts out checked by default.
    OR: why not get rid of the box altogether.
    We definitely want to preview the changes we're making w/o having to check an extra box every time.
    Thanks!

  5. Support for CMYKOGV (eg. FOGRA 55)

    Certification was completed back in 2021 after conclusion of a FOGRA research project. The color exchange profile (ICC) can be downloaded from the FOGRA website.

    In essence expanded (or extended, varies by publication) color gamut offset printing is the idea of increasing the color space of CMYK using 3 additional colors (orange, green, violet).

    CMYKOGV as characterized by FOGRA 55 is proofable using Epson SureColor printers (P7570, P9570).

    I have seen several printers already offering 7c offset print. These days it's basically to cut down on cost (to achieve almost complete Pantone coverage without having to resort to actually spot…

  6. A context-sensitive search function for Paragraph Styles

    When all I need to see is one instance of a style, with no particular text string specified, It would be great to be able to right-click on a paragraph style in the style menu and simply choose "Find Style" rather than having to open the FIND/CHANGE menu, clear it of any previous entries, and fill in all the new parameters before I can make that one simple search.

    EXAMPLE: My client composes her business books in Word and often uses up to nine or 10 "Headings." I just want to see an instance of them so I can get…

  7. InDesign 2026 - PDF Export Generates Abnormal File Size

    After updating to InDesign 2026, exporting PDF files results in drastically larger file sizes compared to previous versions (e.g., from 6 MB to 50 MB) with the exact same content.

    The issue persists even when:

    The "Smallest File Size" preset is used.

    The Compression settings (downsampling) have been verified and correctly set to 72 ppi.

    This appears to be a regression bug introduced in version 2026 that either ignores or poorly handles compression settings or the management of vector/transparency elements during export.

  8. Is there a way to make “long text variables” wrap automatically?

    Is there a way to make “long text variables” wrap automatically?
    Sometimes I encounter very long chapter titles, and when using variable headers, they don't wrap automatically. Is there a good solution for this?

    Currently, all the text is crammed into a single line.

  9. Conditional Vertical Justification

    Add a new option to the Vertical Justification settings for text frames: "Conditional Justify".
    Behavior

    When 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).

  10. QR Code Indesign - Business Tittle

    Hi there, I was happy to create a QR Code in InDesign, but I encountered 2 issues:

    1. The Title doesn't display above the name in the .vcf file. Instead displays the email which you can find later below in the email section. Can anyone help me in How can this be fixed?

    2. There is no option to include a Logo. It would be great to have this option.

  11. Right-click "remove hyperlink"

    Why can't Adobe do this yet? It is 2025 for God's sake. Removing a hyperlink is a multi-step process. It should be a simple right click. And I am talking about the actual hyperlink, not the character style. I already have a script that will remove unwanted styles with no active hyperlink beneath them. I just want a FAST, EASY way to remove unwanted hyperlinks that clients ALWAYS seem to insert, even though they know they don't want them included.

  12. custom page numbering

    When you want to number the pages differently than the standard correlative, for example with a date system, weekly, monthly... There is no automatic option for the pages to be numbered by day of the week. If in addition to the options 1, 2, 3... 01, 02, 03... a, b, c... i, ii, iii... you add a "custom" with a popup to a list of... for example 20 custom fields (for months, weeks, work groups, jobs...) would be perfect.

  13. Auto delete imported remarks after accepting them

    When importing a pdf with remark/correctionss , its impossible to delete multiple remarks after accepting them. It would be great to have an option that deletes the remark after accepting it. I often have 700 pages books with 3000+ remarks. Indesign becomes soooo slow.

  14. Convert Page Guides to Spread Guides

    I would like to suggest a small but highly useful improvement for a future update of InDesign.

    Currently, when guides are placed within a single page, there is no built-in way to convert them into spread guides (guides that span across the entire spread), unless they are re-created manually while holding Ctrl/Cmd during placement. This becomes especially frustrating when a layout contains a large number of precisely positioned guides that need to be extended to the full spread — for example, after a reorganization of pages or when switching from single-page to spread layout.

    Feature suggestion:
    Please consider adding an…

  15. Add Ligature on/off button to the available space for the character type panel

    Due to the recent update (June 2025), there is now an open space for another button on the character style in the Control Panel. The design with the additional space is throwing me off when clicking on Superscript. Adding a button for turning Ligatures on and off would absolutely make life easier. Right now you can turn on/off in character and paragraph style panels, or you have to go to the drop down Menu in the Character panel.

  16. Support for webp format when exporting to epub

    1. InDesign currently supports the WebP format.
    2. ePub 3.0 supports WebP Therefore, it would be beneficial if, when exporting to ePub, the image retains its original format and does not convert it to JPEG or PNG format. This ensures that the quality of the images used in the eBook remains high while maintaining a low file size.

  17. Preserve Preview Checkbox Settings

  18. Add custom labels to page thumbnails in the Pages panel

    As someone who regularly works with large, multi-page InDesign documents - especially project-based packages - I’d love to see the ability to assign custom labels or names to individual pages in the Pages panel.

    Currently, when I need to go back and edit a specific project page in a large qualifications package, it’s difficult and time-consuming to locate the right page. Using only numerical page numbers doesn’t give me the context I need, especially when each page represents a different project.

    While section markers and visible labels on the page help somewhat, these don’t make navigation faster within the Pages…

  20. Lockable Panels/Workspaces

    Please consider adding an option to lock panel positions within the workspace, preventing accidental movement or rearrangement. This feature would be useful not only in InDesign but across all Adobe Creative Cloud applications for users who want to maintain a consistent and intentional UI layout.
