   Subject: Why Did You Break the Zoom Tool in InDesign?

   Dear Adobe Team,

   Can someone please explain why the Command + Space + drag-to-zoom behavior in InDesign was altered? This used to be a seamless, intuitive part of the workflow — one of those tiny things that made a big difference for power users.

   Now, depending on the version or OS, it either doesn’t work, lags, or flat-out refuses to cooperate unless I perform keyboard yoga. This is not an improvement. This is disruption disguised as innovation.

   I’m not asking for a new feature. I’m asking you to restore a basic function that worked perfectly well for decades. Was there truly a wave of users begging you to complicate the zoom tool?

   Please bring back the classic Command + Space + drag zoom behavior. Some of us have muscle memory older than your interns.

   Sincerely,

   Kim Fowler
   Longtime Adobe User & Disappointed Zoomer (the shortcut kind)

2. PDF Export Page Range Defaults to Previous Settings

   Adobe InDesign – PDF Export Page Range Defaults to Previous Settings

   When exporting a document to PDF in Adobe InDesign, the software retains the page range from the previous export session and uses it as the default setting for the next export. This behavior can lead to unintentional partial exports if the user forgets to manually reset the page range to "All" before exporting a new document or version.

   This issue disrupts workflow and increases the risk of delivering incomplete documents, particularly in environments with high output volume or multiple concurrent projects. It would be more efficient and user-friendly if InDesign automatically defaulted the page range to "All" for each new export operation, or at least provided an option in preferences to reset the range between exports.

   We request Adobe to consider implementing this feature in a future update to improve usability and prevent accidental export errors.

3. Hyperlinks to text anchors deleted when exporting to PDF and using Adobe World-Ready composers

   The Adobe World-Ready composers break hyperlinks to internal text anchors when the document is exported to PDF.

   Internal document links are composed of a source and a destination. The hyperlinks seem to get dropped when the destination is in a paragraph that uses one of the World-Ready composers.

   The hyperlinks appear to work correctly in the hyperlinks panel within InDesign. It's only once the file is exported to a PDF and opened in a program like Acrobat that this issue becomes apparent. When reviewing the output in Acrobat, the destination no longer appears to be present in the document at all.

   This does not seem to be a problem when Adobe Single-line Composer or Adobe Paragraph Composer are used, but this is not always a realistic solution.

   This is an issue in at least the last 2 major versions of InDesign (19.X and 20.X).

4. variable fonts

   In a TrueType based variable font, if some nodes have implied deltas at the edge of outline, that edge can jump around as seen in the attached video. The right stem of the "n" should stay on the baseline. And it does in all other environment that I tested (Illustrator, Photoshop, Chrome, Safari …).

   I tried to attach the font but get an error that .ttf and .zip files are not allowed. Here is a link to the file in dropbox: https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/69ynar0ds0k44fhsuge2j/ImpliedDeltasVF.ttf?rlkey=zccl17cd67ru4oat5qlt2eb99&st=c469cifb&dl=0

5. Error message is seen while opening InDesign after Photoshop 26.5 update

   Problem Description

   After the PhotoShop 26.5 update this morning, when opening InDesign, I got an error popup regarding a missing startup script in PhotoShop. The same thing does not happen in other CC apps.

   Workaround 1:

   1. Uninstall Photoshop 26.5 (make sure to remove preferences).
   2. Reinstall Photoshop 26.5. This will install the correct “photoshop_v2025.jsx”.

   Workaround 2:

   1. Open jsx, which is available at "/Library/application support/Adobe/Startup Scripts CC/Adobe Photoshop/" mentioned in the alert in the Text Editor
   2. Add } in the last line

6. Constantly forgetting Workspace setting

   InDesign 20.1, as well as pretty much every version since 2019 continually forget my WorkSpace setting, so that when I boot ID, it randomly thinks I'm new, and so it loads the annoying popups and product tours and the almost ubiquitous blue alert at the bottom helping me with saving my settings.

   Fix this.

9. Some glyphs in ai files appear as other glyphs in PDFs (created from InDesign)

   DE: Einige Glyphen in ai-Dateien kommen in (aus InDesign erzeugten) PDFs als andere Glyphen an.

   InDesign 19.5.1.114 | Windows 11

   The ohm sign Ω - U+02126 is placed several times in an InDesign document:
   2x in an Illustrator graphic
   1x in another Illustrator graphic created additionally for test purposes
   1x placed directly in InDesign

   If a PDF is created from the InDesign document, only the Ohm characters present in both Illustrator graphics are written to the PDF as different Unicode characters - and also as different other Unicode characters: U+0001F and U+00016.
   (See AI-Glyph-Test.pdf)

   The problem was noticed by checking the PDF with 'PDF Accessibility Checker' from axes4: The error ‘Text object with characters without Unicode mapping’ is reported for the Ohm characters in the Illustrator graphics.
   (See PAC-Report_AI-Glyph-Test.png)

   The PAC error is not reported for the Ohm character set directly in the InDesign document. But: the glyph Ω - U+02126 set in the InDesign document was replaced by the glyph Ω - U+003A9 during PDF export.

10. Index type range bugs

    I specifically have my problems with "To Next Use Of Style" and "For Next # Of Paragraphs"

    1. To Next Use Of Style
       The adobe guide specifically says that the range is until the NEXT use of the specific para style but if the paragraph that contains the index marker is the same as the intended end of range, it only recognizes the first page. It counts the current para style aswell.
       So if I want to i.e. make an index marker on a bridgehead with a range until the next bridgehead, I have to put the marker to the beginning of the following paragraph instead of on the bridgehead as the author intended.

    2. For Next # Of Paragraphs
       Here the range is always only to the beginning of the paragraphs, not till the end. So if I have an index marker on a paragraph and the range should end at the end of the first paragraph which exceeds to the following page, I have to type "2" instead of "1" since the latter only counts the beginning of the paragraph (or in this case the point of the index marker) and thus only the first page is shown in the index output.
       But Using the n+1 method is buggy if there are later corrections and the sentence flow shifts in a way that this paragraph that was previously splitted to two pages now is placed on one and ends on the bottom of the page, whereas the next paragraph begins on the following page. In this case the previously page rage will still be set until the beginning of the second paragraph and thus include the second page wrongfully.

    TL;DR
    Please make the page-range type function "For Next # Of Paragraphs" disregard the style of the paragraph with the index maker.
    Please edit the function of "For Next # Of Paragraphs" in a way that the range ends at the end of the paragraph, not the beginning.

11. Latency issue on Mac since version 20.0.1

    Every action, every time I switch back to InDesign after using another application, every event is preceded by a 1-2 second delay. When spending the whole day working on InDesign, this becomes unbearable. This is the first time I've experienced this, and it has been happening since the new version 20.

    See video. The Mac "spinning wheel" appears multiple times in one minute. Imagine this over several hours or days.

    Adobe, cold you please fix it asap?

12. Alert is shown on opening documents in InDesign(v20.0.1) - "This file is already open by another user or another application."

    Yesterday I edited a file in Indesign V19.5.1. Now I can no longer open this and many of my previous design files. I get the error message: ‘This file is already open by another user or application. This file may be stored on a network server and cannot be opened until the other user closes it.

    I have updated to V20.0.1 and reinstalled V19.0. Both did not help. This bug has been around for a long time in different versions and it occurs regularly.

15. Persistent Cursor and Functionality Issues in Adobe InDesign After macOS Sequoia 15.1.1 Update

    Description of the Issue:

    I’m experiencing multiple issues with Adobe InDesign across different versions (including the latest and earlier releases) after updating to macOS Sequoia 15.1.1. These problems occur consistently across various files and significantly disrupt workflow.

    Issues encountered:

    Unable to apply colors from the swatch palette – clicking on a swatch does not work for either text or objects.
    Styles (both text and object) cannot be applied by clicking; I must use right-click and "Apply Style" instead.
    Frames on the page shift a few millimeters upon clicking, seemingly on their own.
    Stroke color for objects cannot be selected or modified.
    The selection tool lags and causes objects to move slightly to the left when selected.
    Fonts cannot be changed from the toolbar – clicking the dropdown does nothing.
    These issues are highly disruptive and make it impossible to work efficiently. No other changes have been made to my system aside from the macOS update, so I suspect it is the root cause of the problems.

    I would appreciate guidance on resolving these issues as soon as possible.

16. [ID-4255870] Document Fonts available even if not active

    Working on an indesign document that has its own “Document Fonts” folder that contains fonts specific to that document (not activated anywhere else), then switching to a new document that does not have any “Document Fonts” folder, the fonts of the previous document are still available, but if I close indesign completely and then reopen the new document the fonts are no longer available.

    This is not correct, fonts that are not activated or not present in the “Document Fonts” folder specific to that document, should not be available for other documents that do not reside in the same folder.

    The old version of indesign (19.5) didn't do this.

    Furthermore, if you export a PDF of a document that contains a non-activated font, but which is displayed correctly due to the above, in the generated PDF the font will be replaced by a system font (Minion Pro, Times, etc.)

17. Command-S shortcut activates DON'T SAVE

    Command-S shortcut activates DON'T SAVE

    InDesign 20.0
    MacOS 15.1
    Swedish language

    I noticed that Command-S activates the Don't Save button in the dialog shown in the image.

    1. Command-W to close the document
    2. The dialog shows Cancel, Don't Save and Save
    3. Command-S will activate the Don't Save button!

    I tried it on two Macs with the same setup.

    This is a serious bug and it's much worse than a crash.

    After a crash the changes will be kept by the crash restore feature. If someone use the Command-S shortcut in the scenario described here they will erase all changes with no way to get them back.

    Command-S will do a Save in the same dialog in Apples apps.

    Other users said this bug is not showing up with English language.

    After a crash the changes will be kept by the crash restore feature. If someone use the Command-S shortcut in the scenario described here they will erase all changes with no… more

18. Project goes blank

    I've been using the new Indesign 20.0 and it will often go blank to a completely grey screen in the working area. I can see the toolbar, and even the image gizmo but none of the actual content. I tried switching preview modes and to presentation mode and nothing works besides just quitting out and opening it back up. It seems to happen when it's been in the background for a while and I switch back to it. It's extremely frustrating. I'm on a Macbook Pro M3 maxed out specs on Mac OS Sequia 15.0.1 (24A348).

    This may be related but even when the content is visible and I'm trying to re-position my images in their frames I can't see the box outline or handles. Whats odd is when the content goes blank I can see the image outline and handles. Not sure if the box/handle color is blending in with my background or what is going on, I just have to hover my mouse and guess where an edge is. That is a constant issue. I had tried to see if i could change the color of the box/handles but it doesn't seem so. Also very frustrating.

20. Indesign opens on wrong screen with multiple monitors (Mac OS)

    This issue has been going on for years now. I recently updated to inDesign 2025, but it's still not solved for me:

    Expected result: I've assigned InDesign to open on my external monitor, just like all my other Adobe apps.
    Actual result: It completely ignores this, and just opens on my Macbook screen. The window resize buttons will be hidden behind my menu bar, so I have to alt+drag the window to make the buttons appear again. Then I can drag inDesign to my external monitor.
    I've seen posts going back to 2019 about this issue
