1. Accessibility isn't anything new and when working in and on any creative industry product or campaign it should be considered from the off.

   I've received a Published Online PDF from a director who's sent a 27-page document that I need to read but as a dyslexic, I rely on using the 'speech' accessibility function built into my mac to allow myself to read this at a fast pace to keep on track with work and my colleges.

   You Publishing Online PDF documents don't allow the functionality for this to happen as you can't highlight the text within the document, a basic function on the most text on a computer and online. I think this should be looked at and I'm a little surprised hasn't been considered from the off when creating the platform as a lot of creatives are known to have forms of disabilities.

   I hope this is something you look into and consider improving in the next update to this feature as it's SO important in this day and age to make accessibility part of your core pillars from the start of any product or features.

   Thanks,
   Danny

2. Set Solidity of Spot colors

   We have HP Indigo's that can print white ink. For example, printing white ink on a golden paper, it looks great, and if you have a picture, just slab some white ink below it and it looks good.

   However in InDesign, if you set the colors accordingly (Paper color to gold, and add a white spot color), and you enable overprint preview, the white ink just disappears. This means, we're desining with paper set to white and white ink set to Cyan to see what we're doing. Tbh we'd like to see what we'll eventually get.

   We need the ability to set the Solidty of the spot colors, like Photoshop is able to since many many years (see screenshot, comparing the Spot color dialogue between InDesign and Photoshop [german version]). Also, we need the ability to export either a version with or without the paper color (with paper color simulated to show the customer how it'll look like, without for printing).

   There are many printing systems out there that can do white ink and other ink with high solidity: HP Indigo, Xerox Iridesse, Ricoh, ... also, screen printing, and even certain metallic colors in offset printing!

3. Show IDLK files in Bridge for Cloud workflows

   With the pandemic we've shifted from an on-premises server (which was decent at stopping people going into the same file at the same time) to using Dropbox to perform the same functions. Unfortunately it doesn't seem to respect other people's IDLK files. Finder (Mac) and File Explorer (Windows) at least show you them, so you can avoid opening a file that someone's working on but in Bridge they're hidden and there's no obvious way of overriding this behaviour.

   Could we see them please? Thank you!

4. Calendar Wizard!

   So this is a cry for help! I've been using the Calendar Wizard script but when I go to populate the calendar, I'm unable to access some controls because the window that pops up does not give me access to the options at the bottom (save, etc). I can expand the screen to full-size and the options do not appear. I even had my computer service remote-in and look and they said it's likely a programming error. Can anyone help?

   This last time I used it, I manually added 4 custom calendars and the window re-tiled to the right and down every time I hit "save", the last time, it actually shoved the original window off the edge of my monitor and I had to force-close it on Task Manager because I wasn't able to even see an edge to grab to drag it back into view.

7. When using the "publish online" feather in ID, one gets a link - a rather generic (ugly ) looking link. Can you improve the appearance?

   I would like that: the cover page, or another graphic, or at least the title of the document shows up in the link to the published document. Who would want to open this? See what is looks like below, and the idea that I could make a graphic that travels with the link - like other graphic attached?

8. Cover page for printing book should have their own setup by default to reduce confusion

   I having issue seriously with page numbers. If its 38pp but in my pages box, shows 34pp example. Why do i need to get confused here?

   I think indesign perhaps should have an option where I can right click and say page 1 and 2 is the cover, than the last two page is also a cover. Page number doesnt change, instead, right click and select it as book covers and boomz.

   So confusing when i exported it shows 34pp in pdf preview, and indesign shows 32pp. So yeah. That could be one feature adobe team can seriously look into. Instead of renaming the pages, why not FC is for front cover etc.

   Why i suggest? Because i forget my indesign show 30pp but actually front cover and inner front cover is 1 and 2, and my third page was renamed as page 1, did this so the page numbers start as 'pg 1' etc on page 3. T_T Confusing. HAhaha. Sorry but yeah. Hope this help.

9. Allow object styles to be applies to all threaded text boxes

   I have a couple of threaded text frames. I would like them to all have the same object style, which also includes a paragraph style in them.

   As of now, indesign officially states that threaded text boxes can't share these settings. I can see why this makes sense in certain conflicting situations, but it is definitely required in many situations (just as I'm really needing it now).

   I think it's fair for indesign to at least have it as an option that can be turned on or off - the option to apply object styles (e.g. paragraph styles) across threaded text boxes.

   Thanks a lot!

10. Improve the preview quality for effects like drop shadows a.s.o.

    When applying an effect like drop shadow to an item, the preview is always bad - even in high quality preview. I have to write a PDF to see if the shadow looks like I want it to. Especially with very small/thin shadows, the preview is always pixelated. Please improve that

11. Reopen color theme floating palettes

    I have a workbook/training document that has sections, and each section uses a different color scheme. I used the Color Theme tool to create the different color themes for the various sections. But with each new theme, I lost the preceding floating palette. It would be so helpful to be able to reopen a color theme floating palette that is based on a theme you saved in the Swatches panel. It would be more convenient to drag the floating palette around the screen (near to the objects where you want to apply fill or stroke) than to have to undock, drag, expand, and collapse the color palette itself, especially if you have a workspace all arranged that you don't want to disrupt. Plus, the floating palette has larger color thumbnails than does the swatch palette, so swatches are easier to see on monitors where the resolution is set high.

12. Export Adobe PDF > Create separate pdf > Suffixes options (looking for Page Master suffix)

    Exporting pages as separate PDFs, I want to ad the Masterpage-names in the PDF-file-name as an Suffix. (Perhaps followed by the pagenumber if necessary.)

    Example:
    Making single-page flyers, I've got Masterpages (Which contains a footer.) for different languages.
    I make the same flyer on p1: UK, p2: FR, p3 DE, ...

    When exporting all pages to a separate PDF I would like to ad the Master-page-name (or prefix) as a Suffix to the filenames like:
    FlyerUK
    FlyerFR
    Flyer_DE

    Or if the Master-page is used on multiple pages:
    FlyerUK-p1
    FlyerUK-p2
    FlyerFR
    FlyerDE

13. Functionality for Properties Panel - similar to Illustrator Properties Panel

    I love the properties panel in InDesign. It's fantastic for beginners. I have them set up the interface to look a lot like PS and AI. I think it makes it easier to learn and feels more familiar if they have experience with the other apps. The properties panel in Illustrator has fantastic functionality. The panels are all there so you don't have to open the floating panels. The ... allows you to open the actual panel if you need more. I would like the InDesign Properties panel to work the same way. There are commands hidden in the paragraph fly out menu and we need to open the panel to get to them. The options for text wrap are limited in the Properties panel requiring that panel to be opened, etc. I would like to see each section have an elispe - ... - to pop open the panels. I don't teach the control panel to beginners - I think it's too overwhelming when first learning. Consistency between apps is always a good thing.

15. Remove plug in

    I used an add-on module for years that I will not need anymore. Without the current version of this plugin, I can not package the files anymore. Therefore, I would like to permanently remove the plug-in from the file. For that I can not find a solution, except to first create an IDML file.
    I'm looking for a simpler solution, because I have several hundred files that are equipped with the module.

16. Library panel: Pop-up preview on focus

    Thumbnails, even large thumbnails, in the Library panel are often not enough to know which object I’m looking at. I often have a lot of similar items in one library. How about a preview that appears when the mouse hovers over a library item? It would work like tool tips.

    While I’m on the subject, how about letting us name items in the panel instead of requiring a dialogue? Most panel work this way.

17. Share for Review Custom Settings

    I haven't used this feature long, but it seems to be lacking features that designers use throughout the review process.

    1. There's no option to use custom PDF settings.
       When my clients are reviewing PDFs, they are expecting to see something that is print or screen ready. They expect the images to look sharp and the colors to be correct. I've developed a number of custom PDF export settings. Everything from including crop marks, how many and which pages to export, export pages as spreads or single pages, include slug to show notes I may have made, customize the amount of image compression, resolution, and how color exports. Unfortunately, I haven't found a way to customize the Share for Review settings so I will probably abandon it's use.

    2. The only way that I've found to export new/updated comps without overwriting the previous version is to save the InDesign file with a new name and export it as a new file.

    3. There's no way to just upload a PDF to the Share for Review section in the Adobe Files. I had to post it to another area and share the link.

18. Auto size headshots in frames based on a "key object" frame

    Similar to how Photoshop has facial recognition, a lot of the time in my job I have to place many headshots in a grid of frames, etc. and they're not all the same resolution, crop or size. It would be awesome to have a feature that lets you select all of the frames with face photos, then click one of the frames like setting the "key object" and then InDesign will size the headshot images within the rest of the frames to match the cropping of the "key object" so everything looks consistent.

19. mobile application

    I have been looking at switching to a mobile first workflow for a while now and technology is starting to catch up, which I am super excited about! One thing that seems to be missing is a replacement for InDesign so that I don't have to rely on my Macbook for creating the kinds of documents that you can create in InDesign. It would need to be modernized and have an improved workflow that would be enhanced by the nature of mobile computing devices. I would love to see Adobe get something like this out there soon!

20. Pages pallet thumbnails need updating to be easier to see selections

    I find seeing were I am in a document difficult in the pages thumbnails.
    As I scroll through a long document there's no indication of the page I'm looking at until I click an element on the screen page. And then the "indicator" is just the subtle highlighting of the text and a colour overlay on the thumbnail.
    Feels like a legacy thing. If it was created new today we'd use something far more obvious.
    I'd like to see a rectangle floating over the pages that matches the frame of the main document window (for example).
    Or at least a selected page needs to stand out far more than it does. Right now it takes some serious visual searching to see what is selected. Make it larger, frame it, make it glow... something that shows in a quick scan.

    Thanks!

    I find seeing were I am in a document difficult in the pages thumbnails.
