2. InDesign is removing caps from file names

   InDesign 17.1 x64 Often (most of the time, but not always) when I overwrite (File Save As) or Export to a PDF that already exists and overwrite the current file, the new file name becomes all small letters (removes my caps). It only happens with InDesign. I can overwrite PDFs from Word, Access, etc and it never happens. This is very frustrating. Just started happening with version 17.

3. PDF's Exporting at Large File Sizes

   I've been running into an issue with PDF's exporting at large file sizes. This became apparent to me after the 2022 update. Here is an example of how this occurs and disrupts my workflow.

   I recently sent a exported a PDF from an indd project that linked to 13 PSD's. The exported PDF file size came to relatively manageable 10 MBs.

   I later updated the same project, now including 20 linked PSD's. This PDF export came to 184 MBs!

   When I've run into this in the past, I've had to either convert the PSD's to JPG's, or run some kind of other optimization out of Acrobat. This is an OK workaround when in a crunch, but I prefer to keep the workflow of source images to PSD's, intact. The downside to running optimization out of acrobat is noticeable loss in image quality, especially in the red channel of JPG's. In the above example, running optimization out of Acrobat reduced the PDF from 184 MBs to 4 MBs, with some, but not too terrible, loss in image quality.

   It's highly likely that this jump in export size is due to the PSD's. My research has lead me to believe this has something to do with meta data carried over in the PSD's, but it still seems like an extreme shift in export size.

   Any thoughts on what the cause of this extreme file size could be? Can export to PDF image options be refined to mitigate this? Like enhanced image flattening, conversion, or meta data remove (if this is indeed the source of the issue). Are there any options that exist that I'm missing? Though, the variable here seems to be the PSD's themselves.

   I've included systems specs, and PDF export settings as attachments for reference, below.

   System Specs:
   Windows 10 Pro 20H2
   AMD Ryzen Threadripper 2950x 16-Core 3.5 GHz
   128 GB RAM
   NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 Ti

4. Slow creation of PDF low-res

   In addition to the problem I posted regarding a conflict between ID and Windows 11, I did resolve that by moving to an earlier release of ID. However, the creation of the low-res PDF now consumed the time it normally takes to produce a high-res print-ready export. Something is going on with ID 17.1.

5. InDesign 17.1 generating enormous PDF

   I am a book designer and have been using InDesign for years. Just upgraded to 17.1 and finding its exporting massive PDF of a simple text file (60 page novel - no images, no colour, no charts, no graphics...just black text on a white page). I cant get it below 18mb using 'Smallest File Size' which is ridiculous. Previously this would have been 1 to 2 mb. Can you fix this please?

6. Printing to PDF: transparent images on a black background create two different blacks.

   Export function doesn't tend to create this problem, but I have to use the Print Booklet function to get page layout and everything else correct.

   I understand the difference between Rich Black and Accurate Black, but changing the settings for what InDesign will export seems to have no effect. have tried about 6 different solutions but none of them seem to work, short of me jumping through obscene hoops to cheat it. FIX YOUR CRAP ADOBE.

   Attaching two images:
   First is Screencap from InDesign viewport.
   Second is PDF after print.

   UPDATE: The website doesn't allow me to upload jpegs, so Adobe if you're reading this, I hate you. That is actually the final straw. Took the time out of my day to file a complaint that I know won't ever be solved, and I can't handle any more hurdles. I'm not purchasing my suite again after this payment cycle ends. Best.

7. pdf export missing image

   1- InDesign(17.0.1)

   2- When importing this PDF file "Socredo.pdf" in an InDesign(17.0.1) magazine layout, then exporting it again in PDF, the upper background tatoo drawing disappears. This stays true even when trying different PDF export preferences.

   3- The expected result would be to have the 2 pdfs identical visually

   4- The file "105 Ecopol 2021-2022 Secteurs.pdf" is the actual result, with the missing upper tatoo background.

10. Variable font issues when exporting to PDF

    The "%" sign is showing an issue when I export to PDF. The font works with all other programs and the creators of the font have verified it is made to specification, but InDesign PDF export has an issue with it.

11. Multiple PDF export

    Hi,
    I have a 2020 6 core iMac with 32GB RAM and I was used to do multiple exports to PDF at one time ... I could open up to 4 files and run exports on them and those exports ran at the same time ... more than 4 simultaneous exports did not work, but i was fine with 4 :)
    Today I noticed it does not work anymore for me? What happend? I have the latest MacOS 12.1 Monterey and also the latest InDesign ...
    I run the first export and the others are queuing...

12. InDesign version 17.0.1: Captions generated in InDesign do not export with accessible tagging structure.

    I'm trying to get my captions to tag properly when exporting to a PDF (for accessibility purposes). I used the caption functions in InDesign (Caption Setup and Generate Static Caption) to create captions for my images. I watched a tutorial that showed this process and the end result was text tagged as "Caption" and nested underneath the Figure/Image.

    Unfortunately, when I export, the caption is tagged as regular paragraph text (<P>), and it is not nested with its associated image. Any tips on how to fix this? I'm trying to do things correctly on the InDesign side, so I won't have to do as much remediation in Acrobat.

13. BUG: PDF Page Information does not display non-Arabic folios

    The 'Page Information' on exported PDFs does not display non-Arabic folios.

    See attached screenshot for example. Roman numerals are used for page numbering. The page name ('folio') is shown correctly in Acrobat as 'ii', but the Page Information on the PDF incorrectly shows the Arabic numeral '2'. This happens regardless of the PDF export settings.

    If the same document is printed to a PostScript file and Distilled, the Page Information correctly displays the roman numerals.

14. Using a variable font and exporting to PDF results in corrupted outlines in text

    When using a variable font in InDesign v17.0.1 and exporting to PDF, the resulting file contains text with corrupted outlines. '.notdef' boxes get inserted into some glyphs as can be seen in the attached PDF.

    This error also occurs in Illustrator.

    When exporting to PDF using a non-Adobe application, no errors are seen.

    Errors occur only when using variable version of the font an not the static versions.

    Additional information and test fonts have been sent in an email to Josh Hadley.

15. InDesign 17.0.1 exporting to Acrobat Pro DC 2021.007.20099 and opening in Full Screen mode on Monterey 12.0.1 page transitions not working.

    InDesign 17.0.1 exporting to Acrobat Pro DC 2021.007.20099 and opening in Full Screen mode on Monterey 12.0.1 page transitions not working.

    The options are still there in InDesign and Acrobat to have page transitions but they no longer function. Is this a Mac issue as, apparently, Windows users don't have this issue
