Wrong Swedish translation (greyscale downsampling) - very old bug!
InDesign 15.0.1
MacOS 10.15.2The word "under" marked with red should say "över" not "under".
There should be three "över" "över" "över".
The English version use "above" "above" "above".
The Swedish version of Illustrator and Acrobat use "över" "över" "över".It's a clear mistake in the translation. No debate needed.
I found the file below with Google. It's made in 2005 with InDesign CS. The same error can be seen at page 20.
https://docendo.se/ovningsfiler/Färghantering.pdfSo it's a stupid irritating error in the Swedish translation that no-one ever bothered to fix.
Could you please just do it now?

Missing Objects in Word pdf printing
The file prints the banner and logo okay in pdf. But when I place them in Indesign 14.0.3 x64, and print them from there, two objects disappear. I'm also using Windows 7 7601 and latest Suitcase Fusion.
It seems to happen with pdf files that are exported from Word from my clients.

lose tags from masterpage when export to pdf
Hi, created a masterpage with footer text. Tagged the text as H6. Exported to pdf. Lost all tags. The only way to keep the tags is to place the text as regular text on all pages. Gone is auto numbering pages and the idea of a masterpage.
Please fix this bug. I use Indesign 15.01 x64 (Windows)1 vote -

InDesign White object exports as RGB in PDF/X 2008 PDF

White vector object (outlined text in InDesign not Linked/Placed) is changed to an RGB object when exported as a PDF from InDesign using PDF/X 2008 No Conversion Lab Ink Manager Values for Pantones are Lab for Spots & Convert all Pantones to CMYK.
Tried a test using the Save for Print default setting and it came out fine, as well as testing the Output Color Conversion set to…

Do not tag numbered headings as a list item
Unfortunately, the “Tagging Export” option within the paragraph style options getting ignored if the numbering options in the section “Bullets and Numbering” are set as well. Therefore, it’s not possible to use automatically numbered headings and getting a correct tagging structure. On the other hand it’s a good thing that lists are automatically tagged as a list. However, it should not override the export tag a user defined.
Please take that accessibility issue seriously and fix it as soon as possible.

Data Merge not populating fields CC2019
I use Data Merge for variable data production every day. I am using IDCC2019 v14.0.1. iMac 27 inch late 2013. OS High Sierra 10.13.6. Processor 3.2 GHz Intel Core i5. 16 GB memory.
This problem started with IDCC2019. I link to .csv for data merge. When exporting to PDF, I choose a record range – for example 1-1000. In the PDF result, the first page is not the first record. It is a random record in the middle – for example, 319. It merges records 319-1000. Then the remaining pages of the 1000 page output are not populated – in the…

Export stops at 0%
Exporting common documents often results in a "crash" at 0%. No error comes up, it just stays at 0% indefinitely.
If I try stop the export I can't, if I try close InDesign I can't. I have to force quit the program and open it numerous times following in order to get all of my fonts back and registered... even if it's in a package.
Extremely time consuming and painful.

PDF Export displays grey box
Adobe InDesign CC 2019 on macOS High Sierra
Currently working in a layout where I'm exporting a PDF, but one image in the document shows as a missing link (grey box) in the export.
I've tried saving the image as a png, relinking from a different location, changing the display to high quality, checked my preferences, preflight errors, and display settings, and nothing has fixed this.2 votes -
pdf proof settings
Easier way for artists who dont understand prepress to provide print ready pdf proofs with the correct settings that match pressready or digital print without causing issues. Reduces issues with colors or layering not set correctly by the artist.

Background Tasks panel
I'm not trying to post an idea or add something.
I merely want the Background Tasks panel to actually be useful!When a file fails to export... no reason is given! Just that it failed. WTH? How can that in any way be deemed to be a "reason" or much less... useful in finding the issue and fixing it?
A fail reason... bad font, corrupt file.

Bonjour, J'utilise votre logiciel Indesign pour un publipostage avec environ 350 lettres. Mon publipostage est terminé et j'aimerais exporter en PDF mon travail. Malheureusement, à chaque fois que je l'exporte et que j'essaie de l'ouvrir, un message d'erreur apparait "le fichier n'a pas pu être ouvert car il est vide". Avez-vous une explication ?
