1. A few of pages are generated as the empty page in the exported PDF file from time to time

   When I try to generate my INDD file to PDF via the Export to PDF function of InDesign, a few of pages are generated as the empty page.

   . This happens from time to time (not always), even though I perform it with same file. (For example, if I retry to generate the PDF file without any amendment in the INDD file, this problem is fixed.)
   . Here, "empty page" means that all object is not shown on those pages - doesn't mean that the objects moves to the next pages.
   . I am using 11.4.1.102 x64 build with Windows 7.

   I am sending all files to be used via the link of https://heartsome-my.sharepoint.com/:u:/g/personal/danny_heartsome_co_kr1/EejzrbrCFu1MkBCq1r3Yxv8BFqjkiJ4GTh0yg08gM7hCUA?e=VCS6bq (Due to the file size limit, I could not attach it into this post.)
   . T-TYPERF9000JCDA68-03194N-05CFRProblem.pdf: be generated with the blank pages (on page 4 - 5)
   . T-TYPERF9000JCDA68-03194N-05CFRRegenerated.pdf: be generated once again without any amendment

2. booklet

   Hi there, I have a problem too with my exported PDF out of PS when printing a booklet. No matter what settings I run the PDF will come out in portrait aspect ratio and not in landscape when I print as DEVICE INDEPENDENT. Mine is a booklet half Letter, classic 2 staples in the fold (5 pages front & back, 4cl.). I can print it 8.5''x11'' but not with bleed and crop marks. Any idea why, please? Thank you! (This problem was not in 2018 version).

4. InDesign produces 'failed to open the pdf file' error when importing pdf with dotted lines

   Using InDesign v13.1 on a MacBook Air (12 inch, 2017) running iOS 10.13, importing a .pdf generated using attached MS Powerpoint file LA02examplerunFigure.pptx resulted in 'failed to open the pdf file' error if the lines added to the graphic are dotted lines as shown (see attachment). Changing these lines to solid lines before exporting to .pdf solved this (see 'LA02examplerunFigure(noDotted).pptx). Upon experimentation, addition of any dotted line to the graphic in Powerpoint results in this error when the file is exported to a .pdf and imported to InDesign.

6. Using text variables causes highlighting text in PDF to be inconsistent/scrumbled

   When exporting to PDF from a file including text variables, it results in text in pdf that it is impossible to highlight correctly. and therefore - it is impossible to mark PDF comments on it. Screenshot and PDF files are attached.
   It only happened with ARIAL font, and only in certain book files (that were created in previous ID version). I couldn't recreate the bug in another file.
   When I removed the text variables the PDF was exported fine.
   I also had another kind of conditional text I made in these files - it was a sentence written inside the 'Text After' field in Bullets & numbering tab in a Paragraph style, and would show on book only when typing something (I used space) using this paragraph style. This kind of conditional text had the same effect on PDF text, and when removed - PDF got exported fine.

7. Tabs in Arabic text move weight declaration to the wrong place

   When placing an Arabic weight statement (e.g. "13g") followed by a tab and a percentage (e.g. "19%"), the weight declaration ("g" or "mg") moves to the percentage when exporting to pdf. Only when setting PDFX/1a:2001 is selected the output is correct. But this setting removes all layers and flattens transparencies so it's not very useful.
   A workaround is to place a space after the tab (so on the left side since this is a right to left language).
   See screen shot in attachment. On top = InDesign file, bottom = pdf created from this file using PDFX/4. The top line in the Indesign file has no space after the tab, resulting in a wrong placement of the "غ" (= Arabic "g") as marked red in the screen shot.

8. Export defaults are not sticky anymore after update

   When you hit Ctrl+E it used to use the last [pdf] export profile that had been used, but now it's always 'Adobe (Interactive) PDF' now. Might sound like a minor issue, but when you have to go through lots of pages one by one it just a massive waste of time going each time through File-Adobe PDF Presets-Needed One (using mouse).

   Can't see where it can be backed? Any suggestions?

   Thanks,

   Henry

   p.s. Thought it could be resolved through Keyboard shortcut, but apparently you can't make it for a specific preset, and Ctrl+E [as mentioned] is not "sticky" anymore

   Raised a topic here https://forums.adobe.com/message/10707424#10687456 Nothing helped unfortunately.

9. Link metadata not exporting in large document

   InDesign 14.0.1 x64

   I have an 1100 page document that is primarily legal code and guidance, with several hundred cross-references to text anchors. The idea being that you can jump around easily in the document to get info on referenced code information.

   When I export to an interactive PDF, not all of the links work. I'm not able to predict which links will and won't work before export, but once exported those links will.not.work. When I check the PDF link info, the correct link information is there, it simply doesn't work. I can edit the link by manually selecting it and reconnecting it to the place it's (ostensibly) already connected, and it will work fine.

   However, with several hundred cross-references, this is NOT a tenable solution.

   Exporting the document as individual pages does not fix the problem.
   Exporting in chunks does not solve the problem.
   Exporting as an ePub also doesn't solve the problem.

   I can convert the file to an IDML file, reopen it, then export, and at that point all of the links will work...

   HOWEVER:

   Reopening after conversion shows a MESS of formatting errors that are unpredictable. In one instance, a number of carriage returns were randomly preceded by a soft return, which was reasonably fixable. In another instance, however, bulleted paragraphs had their formatting tags shifted by one paragraph up or down. Which necessitates going through 1100 pages of legal code and associated text and double checking every single instance of a bullet or numbering - i.e., multiple instances, every page. Which is also NOT a tenable solution.

10. data merge to PDF: page numbers (generated with current page number marker) don't increase

    To recreate this bug:
    1) Make a new print document 8 pages long (doesn't matter if pages are facing or not) A4 or letter size (this doesn't matter either)
    2) Go to the master page and somewhere on the master page, add a new text frame and within that frame, add an auto page number.
    3) In a text editor, create the following file for test purposes and save it with the name "test.txt" - (cut and paste the next five lines of text):
    name
    Colin
    David
    Jose
    Max
    4) Return to InDesign, go to the data merge palette and select data source (the text file that was just made). Place a text placeholder on any page (this doesn't matter where)
    5) From the data merge palette, go to Export to PDF, all records, and to the desktop is fine. Any PDF setting will work, use [High Quality Print] for this demo.
    6) view the PDF that is generated.

    WHAT SHOULD HAPPEN:
    A 32pp file should be created with page numbers going from 1-8, then 1-8 again three more times.
    WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENS:
    A 32pp file is created, but page numbers either stay on 1 (if facing pages was off) or go 1-2-1-2-1-2-1-2-1..... (if facing pages was on)

12. Gradient background missing when export as PDF

    I just updated to the 2019 version of Adobe InDesign and was sent a file that was created with the same version. Some of the background was made using a gradient and disappears (becomes white) when I export to PDF. My colleague is able export and retain the gradient no problem, so it seems like it is a bug or setting that got changed. My InDesign expert colleagues tried basic troubleshooting and couldn't find the answer, so it doesn't seem to be obvious. Any ideas? Thanks!

    I have updated to OSX 10.14 and now my InDesign freezes when I export a PDF. iMac specs attached. I have to force quit the application each time. The strange thing is that even though the app has frozen and the background task shows the PDF as partially complete it seems the PDF is actually being fully created.

18. Table cells tagged as form fields do not get tagged when using the Articles panel in an accessible PDF file.

    If you convert a table cell to a graphic cell and then make it an interactive form field, if you use the Articles panel to control the order, the form fields do not get tagged.

    1.) Create a table
    2.) Select a cell and choose Table > Convert to Graphic Cell
    3.) Open the articles panel and drag the frame containing the table to the Articles panel to create a new article.
    4.) Enable "Use for Reading order in tagged PDF" from the Articles panel menu.
    5.) Export to interactive PDF with tags enabled.

    Result: If you open the PDF and look in the tags pane or run the Accessibility Checker, you'll get errors that the form fields are not tagged.

    Workaround: If you cut the interactive form field and paste as inline within the cell, it exports properly and is tagged. This should not be necessary and makes a lot of extra work.

19. Hyperlinks broken over two lines exports incorrectly to PDF

    Using InDesign CC 13.0.1, I have some urls in a paragraph that are fairly long so have to break over two lines, e.g.

    www.websiteaddress.com/subpage/
    pagename

    When I export to pdf, the link will just link to www.websiteaddress.com/subpage/ and the bit with "pagename" is ignored.

    I found similar problems posted online from a few years back and the workaround was to set your hyperlinks using the hyperlinks palette, not just rely on the pdf to detect the links automatically. I've done this manually to my document, but the problem persists. I can get the full link to work behind the first line of text, but the second line is just plain text with no link.

    I've managed to add a link to the second line manually using Acrobat after creating my PDF, but I feel that this shouldn't be necessary.

20. anchor

    1) Version of Adobe InDesign: CC 2018 (latest release)

    2) Steps to reproduce the issues:
    i) Create a text box with type tool. Enter text.
    ii) Create a text field with "buttons and forms" or insert a picture.
    iii) Anchor text field (or picture) to the end of the text in the text box.
    iv) Drag text box into Articles panel.
    v) Ensure "Include Article" is selected.
    vi) Select "use for reading order in tagged PDF" in Articles panel menu.
    vii) Export to PDF (save as interactive is using the text field).

    3) Expected result:

    Text field (or picture) will be tagged (probably within the P tag)

    4) Actual result:

    Text field (or picture) is not tagged.

    The text field (or picture) only tags if they are not anchored and are placed individually in the articles panel.

    When exporting to tagged PDF without use of the Articles panel, the anchored picture will tag, but the anchored text field will not tag. The text field will only tag if it is not anchored.
