2. Bug in 21.4 and 21.4.1 not recognize the local TrueType font

   After updating to InDesign 21.4 and 21.4.1, I encountered a major bug regarding font management, specifically with local TrueType fonts (like Futura TT).

   ISSUE SYMPTOMS:
   1. InDesign 21.4 does not recognize the local TrueType font anymore. The text appears highlighted in pink (substituted font) and the font name appears in square brackets like [Futura (TT)].
   2. In the "Find/Replace Font" dialog, it says "Missing Fonts: 0", but the substitution remains active and the text is not rendered correctly.
   3. Placing the correct .ttf files into the "Document Fonts" folder is completely ignored by version 21.4.

   TROUBLESHOOTING DONE:
   - Cleared Adobe font caches and deleted .lst files (no effect).
   - Reset InDesign preferences (no effect).

   PROOF OF THE BUG:
   I performed a downgrade to InDesign 21.3. Opening the exact same file (.indd and .idml) with the exact same font files on the exact same Mac works perfectly. Version 21.3 recognizes the font instantly and the pink highlight disappears.

   This is clearly a regression/bug introduced in the 21.4 update regarding how InDesign handles local TrueType fonts when a system font conflict occurs. Please look into this.

3. bugs with version 21.4

   Since version 21.4, there have been a lot of bugs and slowdowns while working.
   The process freezes very quickly, and I am forced to force-quit the application to close the software.

4. Justification Alternates (jalt) ignored by the HarfBuzz World-Ready shaping workflow

   In the recent InDesign versions Adobe has introduced HarfBuzz as the default text shaping engine but the Justification alternates feature is now not working in OpenType fonts at all, we have confirmed it by testing with several Arabic fonts. For Adobe legacy text rendering engine this feature still works seamlessly but not for Harfbuzz
   It has disturbed all the Arabic users past documents.

   I have attached a test Arabic document with Adobe Naskh font, as this font has justification alternates feature.

   Apply the World-Ready Paragraph Composer.
   Justify the Arabic paragraph.
   In Arabic Enabled InDesign set the Insert Kashidas to: None (image attached)
   Enable Justification Alternates. (image attached)

   Compare the broken result under HarfBuzz with the correct result under Legacy Text Shaping.

5. Bug report (regression) — InDesign 2026: Fixed-Layout EPUB export freezes (Error -29) on a large image + a vector shape

   zip for the repro: https://e.pcloud.link/publink/show?code=XZ5IUrZxTfA7wbGXB0km8sFyaLVLHI9lbdX

   Environment

   • Adobe InDesign 2026, version 21.0.0.192
   • macOS (Darwin 25.5)
   • Regression: the same document exports correctly in InDesign 2025 and earlier.

   Summary

   Exporting a page to Fixed-Layout EPUB fails with an uncatchable Error -29 "Uncaught exception" when
   the page contains a large placed raster image together with a vector shape from an
   Illustrator-style drawn illustration. The minimal reproducer is just two objects: one large image
   plus any single one of those illustration shapes (even a simple 4-point polygon). Removing the image,
   or removing the vector shape, makes it export. The error aborts the scripting engine (not catchable with
   try/catch); from a panel, the export call never returns.

   Steps to reproduce

   1. Open min_test.indd (one page: a large image + one vector shape). Or build it: place a large image (~5300×7900 px) on a page and add a vector shape that came from a drawn/imported illustration.
   2. Export to Fixed-Layout EPUB (File > Export… → EPUB (Fixed Layout), or doc.exportFile(ExportFormat.FIXED_LAYOUT_EPUB, file, false)).

   Expected result

   The EPUB is produced, as in InDesign 2025 and earlier.

   Actual result

   Export fails with Error Number: -29, "Uncaught exception."

   What was ruled out (controlled, single-variable tests)

   • The image: any large image works (56 MP alone exports fine); the specific file/metadata is irrelevant (pixel data byte-identical, metadata kept or stripped — still fine alone).
   • Cumulative load: 8 images totalling 133 MP, or a big image + up to 400 generated shapes, export fine.
   • Transparency, strokes, compound paths, bezier curves, rich-CMYK fills: a big image + generated shapes carrying any/all of these export fine (9 separate fabrication attempts).
   • Document context / page count / fonts: the page reproduces it alone as a one-page document with the document fonts substituted; other pages and text are not involved.
   • Shape complexity / count: a single simple real shape reproduces it just as a complex one does.

   => The trigger is the large image + a single real vector shape whose internal path representation
   (from an Illustrator-style illustration) cannot be reproduced by scripted/generated geometry. It is
   not size, color, transparency, complexity, count, fonts, or document context.

   Reproducer

   min_test.indd (attached) — a one-page document with a large image + one real vector shape — reproduces
   on export. Package it (File > Package) so the linked image travels.

   Workaround

   Downsample the placed image (changes the image enough to clear the export), or remove/relocate the
   vector illustration from the page.

   <!-- History: earlier drafts blamed image pixel size, a specific vector property, transparency, and a
   cumulative whole-page/whole-document cost. All disproven by controlled tests (several were artifacts
   of the original file drifting under the threshold during a long edit session - a fresh copy always
   reproduces). The minimal, reliable trigger is: a large image + one real illustration vector shape. -->

6. InDesign v21.4 crashing every 5 minutes

   Since my update to v21.4 today, InDesign 2026 has been crashing on me every 5 minutes - once was under a minute of opening, while I was reading about a missing font.

8. Font family names containing "&" display incorrectly in font menu

   Adobe InDesign v21.3

   Steps to reproduce the issue

   1. Install two test fonts with the following family names:
      • “A & B - Test 1”
      • “A&B - Test 2”
   2. Launch InDesign.
   3. Open the Character panel.
   4. Type “A & B”
   5. Observe the displayed family names in the dropdown results.

   Expected result

   Both family names should display exactly as defined in the font name table:

   • “A & B”
   • “A&B”

   Actual result

   The family name containing spaces around the ampersand displays correctly:

   • “A & B”

   The family name with the ampersand between adjacent characters does not display correctly in the dropdown:

   • “AB”

   The ampersand is removed from the dropdown display only when positioned between non-space characters.

   Additional notes

   • The full family name displays correctly elsewhere in the UI after selection.
   • This appears to be specific to ampersands between adjacent characters, though it could potentially affect other special characters as well.
   • The OpenType name table values are spec-compliant. Please see name ID 6 in the OpenType name table specification.
   • Name IDs 1, 4, 6, and 16 all preserve the ampersand correctly.

   Attachments

   • Screenshot showing the font search results and incorrect dropdown rendering.
   • Two minimal test fonts demonstrating the issue.

   Dropbox link to test fonts: test_fonts.zip

   Adobe InDesign v21.3

   Steps to reproduce the issue

   1. Install two test fonts with the following family names:
      • “A & B - Test 1”
      • “A&B - Test 2”
   2. Launch InDesign.
   3. Open the Character panel.
   4. Type “A & B”

11. InDesign 21.3 (2026) Share for Review Comments Unmapped on Desktop

    This is an ongoing, years-long problem. When people comment via an Indesign Share for review link, the list of comments appears on the desktop app as unmapped/no pins. However, if you view the link online, you can see the same comments with pins where the commenters dropped them. It's a much more cumbersome workflow having to go to a different window to see all of the feedback. I don't know why this continues to be a problem.

12. Rolling cursor in InDesign

    I completely get how incredibly irritating that is, especially when you have a strict deadline to hit and the software is just stuck spinning. The constant rolling cursor in InDesign is usually caused by the program getting trapped in a loop, trying to calculate or locate something in the background over and over again.
    Here are the fastest ways to force InDesign to stop lagging so you can
    finish and submit your work:

15. Pages panel not scrolling to allow all pages to be accessible

    InDesign v21.3 (Updated last week, no issues until today. Daily use)

    This morning when I opened InDesign, I discovered I was unable to scroll and select the last page of the document. The top half of the last page is visible through the bottom bar of the panel where the number of pages is displayed but unclickable. This prevents a change of parent page style, addition of pages in the correct parent style or the selection to override the parent page style.

    I have tried resetting my workspace, restarting Indesign and changing panel views. The bottom row remains elusive.

    I'm frequently losing the ability to use 'undo' [Command-Z] function. It's not all the time, but when it happens I can't undo anything. I have to quit InDesign and re open it to fix it. A few hours later it strikes again. There doesn't seem to be anything obvious triggering this. It's not crashing, it's just not functioning.

19. Cropped content inside frames becomes visible on older mobile PDF viewers.

    I found a rendering issue in InDesign 2021 (and potentially newer versions). When an image or PDF is placed inside a frame (cropped), the content outside the frame boundaries is still being rendered on older mobile devices' PDF viewers.

    Steps to reproduce:

    • Place a large PDF/Image inside a smaller InDesign frame.
    • Export as a standard PDF (Interactive or Print - High Quality).
    • View the PDF on an older smartphone (e.g., older Android/iOS built-in viewers).
    • The "hidden" parts outside the frame are visible.

    The content outside the frame should be completely clipped or removed from the render stream to ensure privacy and visual consistency across all devices.

    Exporting as PDF/X-1a:2001 solves the issue because it flattens the transparency/layers.

    I found a rendering issue in InDesign 2021 (and potentially newer versions). When an image or PDF is placed inside a frame (cropped), the content outside the frame boundaries is still being rendered on older mobile devices' PDF viewers.

    Steps to reproduce:

    • Place a large PDF/Image inside a smaller InDesign frame.
    • Export as a standard PDF (Interactive or Print - High Quality).
    • View the PDF on an older smartphone (e.g., older Android/iOS built-in viewers).
    • The "hidden" parts outside the frame are visible.

20. InDesign refuses to run if it can't verify our license ONE TIME, wasting a full day of work.

    First off, you're missing a bug category: LICENSING

    Now the real defect: InDesign refuses to launch if it can't contact the license server ONCE. So... if you're on a long-distance flight and have a bunch of work to do, YOU CAN'T. There is no excuse for this. Any competent software will run temporarily in that instance.

    Furthermore, we have a fully-paid license. There is no reason for the software to check its license any more frequently than the billing cycle. At every check, the server should report to the software what the end of the currently-paid period is and the software will run without connection until then. And even then, the software should function for AT LEAST A DAY if it is offline.

    This should NEVER happen to a paying customer.
