1. Justifying frame or change leading causes text to change

   This is happening from time to time. The hyphenation of the word inside the red stroke is removed simply by setting the text frame vertical justfication to 'Justify' or by changing the leading of the paragraph. These modifications should not mess with the text and hyphenation. When this happens, in certain circumstances, it changes the number of lines of the paragraph (see prints), causing the whole story to reflow.

4. GREP position marker "^" = Beginning of Paragraph (not beginning of a new line after a forced line break)

   Dear Support,

   with the GREP position marker "^" for "Beginning of Paragraph", the GREP-search should consider the position of the beginning of a paragraph.
   But this marker does not only recognize the beginning of a paragraph, but also the beginning of a new line after a forced line break (SHIFT-RETURN).

   This is not correct: A forced new line is not the beginning of a paragraph.
   The only correct way would be to consider the beginning of a paragraph (RETURN).

   Sometimes you can use "(?=\r)\w+" to look for a word behind a Return instead of "^\w+" to find only the hits at the beginning of a paragraph. However, a combination with the search for a paragraph format can be disturbing here: with the lookbehind combined with a paragraph style only those places are found, where two consecutive paragraphs have the same paragraph style.

   Please correct the effect of ^ to only beginning of paragraph (and not forced line break).

6. Urdu fonts not working in InDesign 2021

   Tried various Urdu fonts in InDesign and only one seemed to work fine (Jameel Noori Nastaleeq). On others attempted, the glyphs were all over the place and it looked like some baseline shift might be required on some characters. In others something called 'missing glyph protection' kicked in and all the characters looked like they were piled on top of each other.

   The same fonts worked fine in MS Word (365) so I prepared two PDF files showing the same text in 5 different URDU fonts - one prepared from Word and the other from InDesign to illustrate the difference.

   I already had the MENA version of InDesign and with the help of Adobe Support I was able to install the Urdu Hunspell dictionary files. However, neither of these things helped. Adobe Support informed me it was a bug that should be reported.

   Hopefully it might be resolved soon?

8. Endnotes content shuffled by ICML import

   InDesign/InCopy versions 14, 15, & 16

   The position of user-entered "extra" content in an endnote story is currently lost when endnotes are replaced during an update of the associated story.

   Adobe's help documentation says (from the "Work with endnote text" section of https://helpx.adobe.com/indesign/using/endnotes.html )

   "Endnotes in the endnote frame are indicated with Endnote Markers. Text, such as heading, can be typed in the endnote frame outside these markers. This extra content does not belong to any endnote."

   This suggests that user content in an endnotes story is allowed and supported.

   However, extra content moves around during an update. An attached screenshot (1_shuffled.png) shows a "before" (left side) with user-entered chapter headers in the endnotes separating each story's endnotes and an "after" (right side) which shows the same endnotes after editing Story 2 in InCopy and then updating its link. The update's ICML import has moved all of Story 2's endnotes ahead of the "Chapter 2" header.

   Another screenshot (2_between.png) shows how user content that was between endnote entries is repositioned in front of the endnote entries after an update. It looks as though the ICML import removed all of story A's old endnotes and then added in the new endnotes en masse, and lost the old positions in the process.

   A third screenshot (3_between2.png) shows that the same reshuffling happens to user content that's in its own paragraphs and completely between endnotes.

   And lastly, an attached screenshot (4_mangled.png) shows how updating a story (Story B) that was edited with InCopy can completely mangle the existing endnotes structure. The ICML import has moved Story B's endnotes to be right after Story A's, has put the Story B header after the new endnote entries, and has orphaned user content that was previously between the endnotes.

   An ICML import should retain the position of each endnote entry rather than removing all the old entries and then adding all of the imported entries at an arbitrary position.

9. footnotes show up at the bottom of text box rather than bottom of page when "span footnotes" is selected

   How do I get footnote #1 in my screenshot to show up with footnotes #2 and #3 at the bottom of the page. For the life of me, I cannot find a setting that makes this possible. Thank you in advance.

10. Span columns not working properly (16.4)

    InDesign 16.4 on Windows.

    I have an issue with spanned text.
    It looks like a "break column" special character is created above and below the text when I span it across a 2 column frame. Or a text column is "skipped."
    This is happening on flowing text, on primary text frames. The text was initially imported from a Word document (without styling).

    This "bug" doesn't happens on on other text frames where the text was not imported.

    I am trying to upload the INDD packaged rar file but the platform is saying that that type of file is not supported... Kindly text the screenshot.
    You will see some empty columns above and below the spanned text that should be filled with text.

13. When Find/Change Dialog Box is open, arrow keys move entire text box instead of cursor

    1. Indesign 16.3.2 on macOs Mojave
    2. When i find a word using find/change it gets highlighted. I try to add a punctuation mark after that word and tab the right arrow key.
    3. Arrow key should just move the cursor in text box, next to the highlighted text.
    4. It moves entire text box as if the text box is selected.

14. Spellcheck marking correctly spelled words as incorrect

    Using the most current version of CC ID
    I always have dynamic spelling turned on, and my dictionary is set to English USA, however, some files appear to have flagged correctly spelled words as incorrect, while other files appear to be normal. Screenshot examples, 'Dark' and 'Inspiration'.

    The issue seemed to come on randomly
    Saving as IDML does not fix the issue, nor does restarting the program

15. Index sorting: offering choices «letter by letter» vs «word by word» vs user defined

    When generating an index, InDesign has always use letters by letters sorting. It would be far useful if InDesign Index offer the choice between:
    a) letters by letters;
    b) Words by Words;
    or c) Custom user entry

    Having to manually fix multiple level of indexes is painful and make no sense at all with a computer generated content like an Index.

    PS: Affinity Publisher is using «words by words» by default.

18. Anchored textframe with auto-sizing/auto-adjusting "height" causes InDesign 2020 to freeze

    Anchored textframe with auto-sizing/auto-adjusting "height", text aligned to baseline and anchored object settings "anchored position: custom", "anchorPoint: bottom left/center/right" causes InDesign 2020 (15.0.1) to freeze (on Mac and PC).

    1. create an new document (size doesn't matter)
    2. create an new textframe (dimensions doesn't matter)
    3. create a second textframe (dimensions doesn't matter)
    4. insert some text in second generated textframe
    5. select the text and apply the option "align to baseline".
    6. anchor second textframe into the first created textframe
    7. set anchored object settings of the anchored textframe to: "anchored position: custom" and "anchorPoint: bottom left or bottom center or bottom right"

    8. select the anchored textframe

    9. choose the textframe fit option "frame to content" or use the shortcut "strg + alt + c" on PC

    InDesign 2020 freezes.

    or repeat steps 1. to 8. and choose auto-sizing type "height" or "height and width" or "height and width proportionally" for the anchored textframe

20. BUG (since CS6!): Nonbreaking Space (^S) Issue with World-Ready-Composer

    Issue:
    When using the ›World-Ready Composer‹, the character ›Nonbreaking Space‹ (^S) behaves exactly like the character ›Nonbreaking Space (Fixed Width)‹ (^s); i.e.: in justified paragraphs, its width does not adjust (like regular spaces do), but it is fixed and unchanging.
    This only occurs with the ›Adobe World-Ready Composer‹ (both ›Paragraph‹ and ›Single-line‹) and not with the regular ›Adobe Composer‹ (neither ›Paragraph‹ nor ›Single-line‹).
    It is not related to the font used, it has been tested with many different fonts.

    1. Versions with this bug, tested and confirmed by myself or colleagues:
       InDesign (Standard Version) CS6, CC2015.0
       InDesign (Middle Eastern Version) CC2020 (15.1.2), CC2021 (16.0)
       I suppose it occurs in all versions since CS6 (when the ›World-Ready Composer‹ was first introduced, afaik)!

    2. Steps to reproduce this issue
       Enter a few lines of text and insert the character ›Nonbreaking Space‹ somewhere. Choose any of the ›Justify‹ paragraph styles and select the ›World-Ready Composer‹. Switch to the regular ›Adobe Composer‹ with the same setup and compare the result.

    3. Expected Result:
       The ›Nonbreaking Space‹ should adjust its width just like any other of the regular spaces.

    4. Actual Result:
       The ›Nonbreaking Space‹ does not adjust its width.

    5. Example as Screenshot attached.
       (Menu is in German: ›Globaler Adobe-Absatzsetzer‹ = ›Adobe World-Ready Composer‹; ›Adobe-Absatzsetzer‹ = ›Adobe Composer‹)

    As far as I know, this issue has been reported only once before (https://indesign.uservoice.com/forums/601180-adobe-indesign-bugs/suggestions/39403822-non-breaking-space-is-smaller-than-regular-space-w). But in this report, it is stated incorrectly that the Nonbreaking Space would be smaller than a regular space. It can, in fact, be larger as well (e.g. in a tight line with regular spaces smaller than their 100% optimum). The real nature of the issue is that it does not vary its size.

    PLEASE FIX ASAP!
    Thanks
