Roboto fonts not working in indesign
I have tried everything to add Roboto fonts to creative cloud to be used in InDesign but nothing works. First, I click on the "f" in the upper right hand corner, and it just spins and spins saying loading. The next thing I tried was going to Adobe Fonts website and 'Activiating all Robot Fonts." Even though it shows as activated, Whenever I try to export my design it says following fonts (Roboto family) aren't currently available.

Linked EPS appears with jagged/rough edges even on High Quality Display
I've never seen this before, but linked vector EPS files aren't previewing properly in InDesign. The edges are super jagged when they should be smooth lines.
3 votesPlease mention the version of InDesign you’re seeing this issue with.
Also, if you could share a couple of sample EPS files, it would be great. Please send these to sharewithID@adobe.com—

Missing or Damaged Links in 17.0.1
Just opened file created two years ago in InDesign. Links panel shows links ok, but pages show gray rectangles. Replacing the link seems to help, except if the link is a PDF. Those are not working at all. They show up on screen as pixelated, even at high screen resolution setting; but print as gray rectangles.

Fixing images and text wrap
Since a longer time there is a bug, that makes it impossible to let the text flow around beside an image, while this image is fixed with a anchor mark. The line, where the anchor mark is set doesn’t flow around. That makes an unhappy compronise necessary: Either you don’t set the anchor mark and the image doesn’t flow with the text or you set an manual word wrap.
This should be fixed because in other programs it also works.

V2022 - Museo Sans fonts not working after InDesign update
I recently upgraded my InDesign on my PC, running Windows 10 Enterprise, from Version 2019 to Version 2022.
After the update, my Museo Sans from Adobe fonts stopped working in Version 2022. I couldn't convert my InDesign file back to 2019, so I ended up pulling it into a Mac environment and re-saving successfully from V2021 to an IDML file and re-opening it in InDesign V2019 on my PC. The fonts are visible in the newly re-opened V2019 file.
I've included screen shots of what I see in V2022 (most Museo Sans text missing) and V2019 (all Museo Sans text…

scrolling causes screen distortion of document pages
Adobe Indesign 17.0.1 on a M1XMax 16" 2021 MacBook Pro. MacOS = 12.1
When scrolling through a document, the screen becomes distorted (per the attached video screen recording). The distortion becomes worse the more you scroll. Closing and re-opening the document is a (very) temporary fix but the distortion reappears almost immediately.
Theory: May be associated with using a 1x resolution on the screen display, rather than one of the 2x retina display resolutions.1 vote -
2022 InDesign bugs
when using ID 2021 and before, When I sized a graphic, say, from 100 to 50%, the info box would say the graphic is now 50%. In ID 2022, when I reduce a graphic, the box says it is 100%. I am not liking this.

Layer visibility toggle should indicate mixed visibility status of sub layers
InDesign V 16.4, Current Creative Cloud as of 2021-11-14.
Currently - The top Layer visibility icon (within the layers palette) does not indicate a mixed visibility status of sub layers.
I have a rather complex layer set in a document I'm working on where I have master pages with master pages based on other master pages and linked objects within the document.
I just spent over an hour trying to locate a hidden object. I incorrectly assumed that, when looking at the layers palette, with all the layer stacks closed (layer list contracted where only the top level was shown)…2 votes -

Placed/Imported Photos glitching, changing colors, white noise effect
File> Placed Photos glitching, changing colors, white noise effect, or turn black. Tried dragging and dropping onto artboard but pictures keep importing distorted. Reset all presets and preferences. Uninstalled and reinstalled with no luck. Photos should import as is instead of glitching and most of all changing colors. This started happening after I updated InDesign beginning of this month (November 2021).

Verknüpfungen werden nach jeder Aktivität neu aufgebaut // InDesign 17.0 x64 // running on Win 10 Pro
Aktuell laden sich die verknüpften Bilder nach jedem Doing in InDesign (Also egal was ich mache, Textverschieben, von einem anderen Programm zurück zu InDesign wechsle oder was auch immer, 1 Sache mache ich und schon laden die ganzen Verknüpfungen neu. In den alten Versionen lief das ohne Probleme. Ich konnte ohne Störungen arbeiten. Dies scheint ein BUG zu sein, denn das macht das Arbeiten mit dem neuen InDesign unmöglich. Ich kann nicht jede Sekunde warten, bis sich der Screen neu aufgebaut hat und ich weiterarbeiten kann. Die Bilder komplett auszugrauen ist auch keine Option, da es für unsere Gestaltung wichtig…

InDesign 16.3.2 on Mac: with GPU, won't render images in frames with a fill applied
InDesign 2021 16.3.2
macOS Mojave 10.14.6 (18G9323)
MacBook Pro (Retina, Mid 2012)
MacBookPro10,1
Intel Core i7, 2.7 GHz
16 GB RAM
Intel HD Graphics 4000 (1536 MB VRAM)
NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M (1 GB VRAM)
With "GPU Performance" enabled (or with "GPU Preview" on) images will not render if the containing frame has a fill applied. Note: InDesign reports that a compatible GPU and monitor are detected. Also, it doesn't matter whether "Animated zoom" is enabled or not. See screenshots 1–3.
With GPU Preview disabled (or with CPU Preview on) the images render correctly. See screenshots 4–5.
