Font display issue with certain fonts in images from clipboard (18.1 x64)
We use a charting service called Macrobond, and copy images from that software to insert in InDesign. The following buggy behavior is observed:
When using certain fonts in the chart, the pasted image in InDesign displays those fonts in miniscule sizes. That does not happen with other fonts fonts.
I suspect the issue stems from different ways in which InDesign handles the various fonts based on whether they are included or third-party (or perhaps depending if they are installed locally on the PC or is fetched from the Adobe library).
In this example the first image shows a problematic chart…

Bloc de texte
Ma version de InDesign : 18.0 x64
Ce n'est pas une idée mais je rencontre un bogue. La question est : comment régler ce bogue ?
Voici la situation :
1) je crée un bloc de texte. Je peux taper un texte à l'intérieur.
2) J'appuie sur la touche ESC pour sélectionner le bloc
3) Le bloc crée alors automatiquement un retrait du texte à l'intérieur. Ce retrait, je l'avais créé auparavant mais il semble qu'il se soit bloqué et que maintenant, tout nouveau bloc de texte se crée avec ce retrait de texte.
4) J'ouvre Objet/Option de bloc de…1 vote -
'Search for Missing Links in this Folder' not working
InDesign is not finding other missing links in a folder. I have only Illustrator files stored I a folder titled 'Illustrator', which is a subfolder of another folder titled 'Content'. The Indesign file sits at the same level as this 'Content' folder.
There are over 100 Illustrator files in the folder, some with single artboards and some with multiple, and some are placed in multiple locations in the InDesign file.
InDesign as no problem finding other missing links in other folders (titled Photoshop, PDF) which sit at the same level as the Illustrator folder.

Display performance
after fighting with the display performance for a couple of days, I finally could preview it changing the settings in general settings. I haven't found any other solution for now but at least it works.

Changing the width of a line changes its y position
No object styles are applied in this example.
Expectation: When adjusting the length of a line, it's position should remain unchanged.
What happens:
When I adjust the length of a stroked line by entering a new width in the Length property, its Y position decreases by 0.5pt/equivalent.
When I adjust the x position by nudging with the Right or Left Arrow key, both the y position decreases by 0.5pt.
If the stroked line is grouped and aligned to other objects, the y position of the line decreases by 0.5pt regardless of its position/alignment within the group.

moved graphics still visible.
V.18 has to be the buggiest version of ID ever released, and I used Pagemaker before I used ID... Any file I've worked on leaves the graphic slightly visible when I move it, flashing in and out of view. People must be having seizures over this. It also happens with type. If I delete type, and then click off the text box, the text box flashes the old type back where it was for a fraction of a second, complete with rewrap, and it all takes time for things that ought to be mindless. I can't figure out how to…

InDesign doesn't import files
Hi !
So my issue is that InDesign doesn't allow me to import files, whether they are .jpg, .png or .eps, or else. I need to use a logo that I have in .png, but InDesign doesn't allow me to select my file to import.1 vote -
Turning a shape into a frame
It's easy enough to create a frame inside InDesign and drop in an image. I would however like to be able to bring in my own shape already made, turn it into a frame and drop in an image. I reached out to support. They told me I needed to put my png shape into Illustrator for it to work. We tried it together and it still didn't work. We came to the conclusion that this should be a new feature.

Make GIFs great again
• Allow a preview of a live GIF while designing - currently when it is placed into a deck it is static and only reviewable by publishing online.
• Allow a choice of the GIF thumbnail that becomes the still image when an offline version is downloaded. Currently I'm at the mercy of whatever the very first frame is in the entire GIF sequence.
• Better yet, make Adobe Reader able to play gifs so the 'offline' version doesn't have to be a compromise of the original intention.

InDesign not updating placed AI files
Placed AI file does not update correctly. InDesign 17.3 and Illustrator 26.3.1 - An AI file is placed into InDesign initially with all layers set to "print" - then the file is updated in Illustrator by changing one or some layers to "not print" and saved. As expected, in Indesign the placed AI shows an alert icon over the graphic. When I select update, the AI still displays with ALL LAYERS still visible. To test what the issue may be, I placed the identical file next to the existing one. THAT file came in correctly - they are the exact…

Nach Update fehlt die Möglichkeit ein Bild im Text zu verankern
Seit dem Update auf InDesign 17.3. fehlt all meinen Bildrahmen das kleine grüne Kästchen das man zur Verankerung von Grafiken in Texten verwenden konnte. Auch das Einfügen eines verankerten Bilder per rechten Mausklick funktioniert nicht mehr. Vor zwei Tagen war die Funktion noch wie gewohnt vorhanden. Gibt es evtl. einen ShortCut, um diese Funktion wieder zu aktivieren oder die Möglichkeit die Software darauf hin zurück zusetzen, dass die gewohnte Funktion wieder vorhanden ist?
Leider kann ich außerdem in diesem Webformular mit dem unten stehenden Button weder PNG-Dateien noch JPG-Dateien uploaden, um ihnen ein Bild von meinem Problem zu zeigen :-(…

InDesign library with images linked to server disappears on placement
An InDesign library with entries that contain images LINKED TO A SERVER will not drag-and-drop to the InDesign page. The library entry disappears upon releasing the mouse button and a Mac system alert sounds. Repeatable in CC2020, CC2021, and CC2022 in Big Sur and Monterey. This doesn't happen in OS Catalina.
Using SMB protocol to connect to image server.
Repro Steps:
1) Put images on a server. Use different image formats (.ai, .eps, .jpg, etc.)
2) Link those images from the server to image boxes in InDesign.
3) Add those images boxes to an InDesign library.
4) Drag/drop those entries…1 vote -
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
