2. Some hyperlinks/cross-references lost in HTML export

   When exporting a document containing hyperlinks and/or cross-references to HTML, some hyperlinks are lost.

   See the screenshot of an example InDesign document attached. (This is an anonymised excerpt from a much larger document.) The index item at the bottom contains cross-references to numbered/lettered paragraphs in the text above.

   In the actual HTML output files from both InDesign 2020 and 2021, some of those cross-references have not been correctly converted into hyperlinks. (Compare the links in the expected HTML output file.)

   Ugly workaround: insert extra characters immediately before and after each distinct hyperlink/cross-reference. In the actual 'bookended links' HTML file you can see that I have inserted a $-sign before/after each hyperlink, and the links have been exported correctly. The $-sign can then be removed by search/replace in a text editor to produce the correct HTML (this is how the expected HTML file was created).

   When it happens in a document, it happens consistently: the same hyperlinks are lost each time – but within the document there seems to be no pattern to the links that stick and the links that disappear once exported.

   This example has been tested in InDesign 16.4 x64 and 15.1.4 x64 on Windows 10 and 16.3.2 on macOS Big Sur and the results are the same in each.

3. Memory issues

   I began putting the current prerelease build (release candidate for InDesign 2022) through its paces on Monday. For the first time in the almost full year since I have been using this M1 MacBook Pro, the fan came roaring on, and all memory was depleted. When I started force quitting applications and consulted Activity Monitor, InDesign showed stratospheric memory use.

   This doesn't happen all the time, but it seemed to degrade performance over time.

4. Stop adding the word "Folder" to packaged file names.

   Stop adding the word "Folder" to packaged files. My folder names are already long enough and I can tell by the icon that my end product is a folder without it ending in the word "Folder." Would be thrilled if you removed this automatic addition from InDesign.

5. Share for Review error message

   I am using Indesign CC 16.0.1 and I am trying to use Share for Review—I have created a simple letter sized document with shapes and filler text. When I click "Share for Review—Create" I just get the error message included below. I have tried with multiple documents over the last few weeks—I have restarted, signed in and out of CC...no change.

6. step repeat

   Maybe put horizontal before vertical in Step and Repeat.... Everybody knows that x comes before y in a 2D coordinate system. It's basic geometry. I can't be the only person who trips on this bug. FIX IT!

8. Latest Indesign Slowdown on M1 Chip

   I am on the Macbook M1 Air with 16.2 and still experiencing random slowdowns when editing text, moving images, all the basic functions of InDesign.

   I have removed all Adobe CC apps, removed all plugins, used a cleaner. I am now running the latest clean Silicon version of InDesign and experiencing the same issues.

   I turned off GPU enhancements as folks recommended, which helped, but it still shows the beachball from time to time whenever I try a simple task.

9. dropbox links

   Indesign use to be smart enough to know that links are from dropbox and looks for the my dropbox folder and not the link path that goes all the way to the drive name.

   But lately every time I open a file from a team member, I have to relink ever file manually.

10. [INDD 2020 and 2021] Missing font in placed SVG is not detected by Preflight or Type > Find Fonts…

    [ 2020 ][ 2021 ] A missing font in a placed SVG does not show

    If you open a document with a placed SVG where a font is not embedded the missing font does not show with:
    [1] Type > Find Fonts…
    [2] Preflight

    If you export that InDesign document to IDML and open the IDML file with InDesign the missing font is showing as missing in Preflight and Type > Find Fonts… .
    As soon as you save the IDML as InDesign document, close and open it again, the missing font is not detected again. Neither with Preflight nore with Type > Find Fonts…

    FWIW: The only reliable way to make that missing font available is to install it for All Users in Windows 10.
    What does NOT work at all:
    Provide the font in a Document fonts folder
    What does NOT work reliably:
    Provide the font in the Application > Fonts folder.
    Install the font for a particular user only.

    IMPORTANT NOTE:
    Download my test documents packed as zip file from my Dropbox account:
    SVG-from-AI-Placed-16.4.0.51.zip
    https://www.dropbox.com/s/hhblynzb4qb6czs/SVG-from-AI-Placed-16.4.0.51.zip?dl=1

    ( I could not upload zip and png files here. The file types are not allowed. )

    The bug is visible with InDesign 2020 and 2021 as well.

    Regards,
    Uwe Laubender

11. Style Mapping to [Basic Paragraph] doesn’t work with remembered settings or presets

    When you place (import) a Word document into InDesign, you can choose to use Style Mapping to map the paragraph and character styles in Word to their equivalents in your InDesign document. When you use this feature for the first time in a document, the mappings get stored somewhere and are remembered for any subsequent imports you perform in the same document; you can also choose to save your import settings, including Style Mappings, as a preset to use freely in any document.

    If you map any Word styles to the default [Basic Paragraph] style in InDesign, it works as expected the first time (when you actively select [Basic Paragraph] from the dropdown menu). But if you do another import where InDesign reads the Style Mappings from a file – either by using the cached Style Mappings that InDesign has remembered from last time, or by using a saved preset – any style that is mapped to [Basic Paragraph] will not work properly. Instead of mapping the Word style to the existing, built-in [Basic Paragraph], what happens is that a second paragraph style is created with the name [Basic Paragraph], and with properties (font, size, etc.) matching the formatting of the Word style, rather than the built-in [Basic Paragraph] style. This should not even be possible, since you end up with two styles that have the exact same name, but it happens nonetheless (see screenshot).

    In order to avoid this, you have to go into Style Mappings and re-select all instances of [Basic Paragraph] manually. Notably, when you open the Style Mappings window, the mappings all look correct, but when you click on [Basic Paragraph], the dropdown menu doesn’t open like it does normally – the text “[Basic Paragraph]” just disappears and the selection field becomes empty. You then have to click a second time for the dropdown menu to open.

    This bug has been present for several years (unsure how long). It is present in both Windows and Mac versions of InDesign.

    Steps to Reproduce:
    1. Create a Word document and type some text in any paragraph style (the default “Normal” will do)
    2. Create an InDesign document and place the Word file; make sure “Show Import Options” is selected
    3. In the Microsoft Word Import Options window, select “Customise Style Import” and click on “Style Mapping”, then map the style used in the Word document to [Basic Paragraph]; click OK twice and click somewhere in the document to import the text
    4. Place the Word file again in the same way, using the cached Style Mappings which InDesign automatically remembers without changing anything (you can even deselect “Show Import Options” and skip that part entirely)

    Actual Result:
    After the second import, your document has two paragraph styles, both named “[Basic Paragraph]”, see screenshot. One is the built-in default style; the other is an erroneously created doublet and has the little ‘arrow-into-a-box’ icon to show that it is an imported/auto-created style. The text imported the first time is styled with the built-in [Basic Paragraph] style; the text imported the second time is styled with the imported ‘parasitic’ [Basic Paragraph] style.

    Expected Result:
    After the second import, there is only one paragraph style in the document, the built-in [Basic Paragraph] style. All the text in the document, both that imported in the first import and that imported in the second import, is styled with this built-in [Basic Paragraph].

    Any Workarounds:
    Every time you place a Word file, always enter the Style Mapping window and manually reselect [Basic Paragraph] from the dropdown menu for all styles that map to this style. Alternatively, after importing the file, delete the ‘fake’ [Basic Paragraph] style and when asked what to do with the text, select the real [Basic Paragraph] style to replace it.

    When you place (import) a Word document into InDesign, you can choose to use Style Mapping to map the paragraph and character styles in Word to their equivalents in your InDesign document. When you use this feature for the first time in a document, the mappings get stored somewhere and are remembered for any subsequent imports you perform in the same document; you can also choose to save your import settings, including Style Mappings, as a preset to use freely in any document.

    If you map any Word styles to the default [Basic Paragraph] style in InDesign, it works as… more

14. Hyperlink shifts when replacing preceding characters

    If I replace a character in front of a hyperlink with multiple characters using Find/Change, the hyperlink shifts.

    (See screeshot: before and after)

    If only one character is replaced, no shift occurs. Tested with InDesign CS6, 2020 and 2021, MacOS.

    Here you can find a test document:

15. Variable Fonts: Align Stroke to Center shows overlaps

    When using variable fonts, the Align Stroke to Center shows the overlaps in letters with live text (not good). If I use Align Stroke to Outside the overlaps arenʻt shown with live text (good) but once I use Type > Create Outlines the overlaps are shown (not good).

    This happens in many variable fonts, for example Source Code VF Concept (see screenshot attached), but also true with my own variable fonts and those from other type foundries.

    With the non-variable font version, the Stroke looks good in all settings mentioned here. The variable font version should look the same. Thank you!

16. auto page numbering does not work with auto-size text box

17. Adobe InDesign Server 2021 has stopped working

    With some documents to be (automatically) processed by Indesign Server, InDesign Server stops working - and we get the Windows message "Adobe InDesign Server 2021 has stopped working. A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Please close the program".

    As after a while our automatic system is picking up the same (possibly questionable) document again, we end up with a system where all InDesign Server instances are hanging, and no further processing happens (until a human being goes to the server and clicks the messages away).

    The issue here is not that the possibly questionable document cannot be processed properly - the issue is that a server process is showing a dialog, as opposed to just aborting execution or even crashing fully (which we could then handle programmatically).

    Long story short: why is InDesign Server, launched from the command line, ever showing a dialog?
