Two-page paragraph border
I have a picture and the caption on two differentes pages. I want to draw a line between them. So I use paragraph border. In InDesign, it is OK (see image Dans InDesign.jpg) but in the PDF, the line stops at the edge of the page (see Dans Acrobat.jpg). Somebody says me to generage the PDF with board option. It's a good idea but the printer refuses to use this file.

Unknown character inserted before hyphen in PDF export
InDesign v16.1
We have an InDesign file where the word "papier" is hyphenised by InDesign in this way "pa-pier", but after exporting in PDF, an unknown character was inserted before the hyphen and is shown as the letter "u" overlapping a displaced hyphen. Copy/pasting the word from the PDF gives this: pa�-pier
If the PDF is exported again, the problem is not reproduced.

indesign export to pdf unusable for Thai
Basically all the diacritics are messed up, regardless of font used. The PDF looks fine but the text if copied from the PdF is garbled.
This is in 16.2.1 (2021). It was working in 2019.5 votes -

Artefact issues with Accessible PDFs.
Elements on the master page are not tagged as artifacts, according to PAC 3.
Not even with a corresponding style that has this property.
PAC 3: https://www.access-for-all.ch/en/pdf-accessibility-checker.htmlThis behavior also applies to these elements on a normal page:
- Table borders
- Paragraph border
- Column rules
...This is a big problem because these elements have to be defined manually as artifacts. This can quickly be hundreds of elements.

Id CC 2021 pdf export failure
This is an issue I and my coworker have been having with previous versions of INDD CC, along with 2021 (16.1). It's been a problem for about a year now. We work off of a server, and exporting to a PDF fails frequently. It usually works if we export to our desktops, but exporting to the server is very hit-or-miss. It doesn't matter if the file is older or has just been created, and it doesn't matter whether it contains linked files or not.
I have never had it fail to export to my desktop, but she has. She had…

Please fix the pdf-export-tags for tables in Indesign as it can only be fixed in Acrobat and not in InDesign.

InDesign not exporting chunks of tags
Happening in multiple documents. Some of these documents were originally created by other people and some documents I have created from scratch.
Set up indd file for accessibility. Everything done correctly: all text boxes linked, all tags applied, articles created, articles have "Use for Tagging Order in Tagged PDF" checked. And yet, whole pages of the document are not tagged at all in the pdf.
I go over the said pages with a fine tooth comb and there is nothing I can see that would stop them from exporting tags. Only solution I've found is to recreate the text box…

Exported PDF closes automatically
Since updating to InDesign 16.2 the Export PDF function with "View PDF after exporting" option checked does open the pdf in Preview (macOS Big Sur 11.2.3) but it closes it automatically before the user can interact with it.

InDesign to Acrobat Accessibility Bug
When performing Acrobat remediation on InDesign publications containing correct export tagging, the Acrobat Reading Order tool shows "P" tags at the end of each line of text (as well as additional "P" tags in the middle of lines). The Acrobat Tags panel shows no paragraph tags -- just broken up lines of text.
Fortunately, these broken up lines are not reproduced as such by the screen reader. So why does Acrobat identify each line of text with a "P" in the first place?
This issue needs to be fixed as it creates a dilemma and lot of unnecessary remediation work…

Embeded fonts in forms
When I make forms in Acrobat that use some fonts with licensing restrictions, Acobat show a warning with message.
In Indesign I think you should make the same.
