Mouse does not move/work on pc not possible when rendering a PDF
It would be great if I could keep working on the PC and InDesign keeps rendering the PDF. But this is not possible because the mouse can not moved as soon as inDesign saves a book as PDF.
I sit in front of the PC for almost 5 minutes and can't do anything else on the PC.
Fixt this now finally!!!1 vote -

title of file is wrong and shows up in pdf bowser tab
When Indesign converts to pdf, it is carrying over a title that I can't find or edit to the pdf that then becomes the title of the browser tab when it is uploaded online. Horrible! It has done this with every newsletter now for years and we can't find where to change it. Title should not say "Kailin Mooney, Eastlake Resident/Food Bank Employee". How can I change this?

Incorrect replacement of special characters in hyperlinks while exporting to interactive PDF
In InDesign, the special characters in hyperlinks are converted while exporting as interactive PDF differently depending on the platform (Windows or Mac) and the type of hyperlink and are thus made unusable.
If the hyperlink replaces a text without further intervention in the document, special Characters are sometimes incorrectly replaced.
The replacement is different depending on how the hyperlink is used in the document:
- text that is a hyperlink
- Assigned hyperlink to a text
- buttonIn addition, Mac and Windows export result in further differences.
So far I only have tested the letters äüö, but cannot rule…

Export PDF doesn't allow "Two-up (Cover Page)" view
Using InDesign v16.1:
Export PDF preset "High Quality Print" or "Press Quality" viewing option layout for "Two-up (Cover Page)" is grayed out and unavailable. Though if exporting using preset "Smallest File Size" all options available for the PDF layout.
For book or brochure PDFs, "Two-up (Cover Page)" is the standard, and it used to be available for all export options.———a bug??3 votes -
variable font using no font style after PDF export for fillable form
When using a variable Font (Acumin from Adobe Fonts) for a text field in a fillable form it isn't using any font style when exported to PDF.
Static fonts act as expected.

Table borders, strokes, artifacted in InDesign problem
InDesign ver. 16.1 (2021): Table borders and strokes created on a separate layer and artifacted in InDesign are not tagged as artifacts when converted to PDF.
Close to a hundred "Path Object" errors flagged by the PAC 3 Accessibility Checker which we are required to use. The problem is none of these borders and strokes can be accessed in Acrobat with the Reading Order tool and therefore cannot be marqueed as artifacts. They are simply “not available” in Acrobat, yet PAC 3 flags them as “Path Object Not Tagged” errors.
~ Replacing tables with paragraph borders (on single layer) in…8 votes -
Überschreiben von PDF-Dateien öffnet anstatt neue die alte Datei aus dem Cache
Das ist sehr sehr böse und passiert nur wenn man zwischendurch Akrobat nicht schliesst. Gott-sei-dank fiel mir das auf, denn ich wollte daraus eine PDFx3 schreiben und hätte dann die falsche Datei mit Fehlern, die eigentlich korrigiert waren, rausgeschickt.
SEHR BÖSE!

InDesign Buttons and Forms NEEDS an "image field"
InDesign Buttons and Forms NEEDS an "image field" due to ease of ADA Accessibility logical reading order ease. Adding image form fields in Acrobat is fine but obviously more tedious work is required to order properly. This is a much needed feature in todays ADA demanding environment

Make Crop Marks always outside the Bleed
People who don't understand bleed (and they are out there) leave the Marks Offset setting on default, which causes problems when they send their files out for printing.
There is absolutely no situation or circumstance in which it is a good idea to have the Crop Marks inside the Bleed. Not one. Not Ever.
So why do we have to adjust the Marks Offset when we change the Bleed ? Why is it not even offered as an option in the Preferences to set this automatically ?
It's not just when exporting a PDF, but also when Printing, from InDesign,…

InDesign 16.0.2 exports improper TAGS for "lists" (bullets)
The InDesign source file, which we use annually to produce a report, is now exporting all lists (bullets) with individual <P> tags and not as a grouped (nested) list of <L> tags.
Prior to the upgrade to InDesign 2021 (v. 16.0.2), the source file exported proper <L> tags. The same file, now converted (saved) as InDesign 2021 (v.16.02) has bad tags for bullet/list formatted items.
V. 16.0.2 gives LESS ADA 508 compliancy on the export than the prior 2020 version.

[ID-4224415]Accessibility Tags order to match in InDesign and PDF
Accessibility tag tree is not matching as per InDesign XML tag structure. We are doing more manual work to re-arrange the tag tree as per PDF view in Acrobat. We need to fix this bug in InDesign and match the tag tree as per InDesign tag structure for the accessibility PDF.
Attached sample file and screen shot FYR....
