1. RTL Text Bugs Despite "Fixed" Notification

   InDesign 20.3.1.073

   Dear Adobe InDesign Development Team,
   We appreciate your efforts in addressing the RTL text issues introduced with the HarfBuzz engine in InDesign 19 (2024) and the improvements made through version 20.3.1.073.
   However, we must bring to your urgent attention that, contrary to your recent "Fixed" notification, several critical bugs remain unresolved, several critical bugs remain unresolved, impacting right-to-left (RTL) workflows (Hebrew & Arabic).

   Critical Bug:

   • #1: Disappearing Punctuation/Text in PDF Export with Drop Cap and Line Break When a drop cap is applied )in justified RTL text( followed by punctuation and a line break, the punctuation marks (and sometimes adjacent text) completely disappear in the exported PDF, leaving only white space. This issue is particularly dangerous because it appears ONLY in the exported PDF, not in InDesign's interface and can easily lead to published documents with missing content. o Report + screenshots: https://www.adobeprerelease.com/beta/C6DFA254-C40C-4EEB-8F6D-F4AEDA2E6171/feedback/item/ID-4262114

   Additional Unresolved Bugs:

   • 2: Reversed Cursor Navigation with Modifier Keys
     When navigating RTL text using arrow keys with Shift (to select text) or Command/Control (to skip words), the cursor moves in the opposite direction of the arrow pressed (e.g., right arrow selects text to the left). Regular arrow navigation (without modifiers) works correctly. This occurs in “Visual” cursor movement mode (Preferences > RTL > Cursor Movement) which is commonly used by RTL users.
     o Report + video: https://www.adobeprerelease.com/beta/C6DFA254-C40C-4EEB-8F6D-F4AEDA2E6171/feedback/item/ID-4260041

   • 3: No Visual Indication for 'Nikkud' (Diacritics) Selection
     Unlike the previous text engine, the HarfBuzz engine lacks visual feedback when selecting nikkud (Hebrew diacritics), making it difficult to edit accurately.
     o Report + screenshots: https://indesign.uservoice.com/forums/601180-adobe-indesign-bugs/suggestions/48967916--id-4246352-nikkud-accents-diacritics-selection

   We urge the InDesign team to prioritize the critical PDF export bug (Issue #1) for immediate resolution, work toward a complete solution for all RTL bugs, and update the misleading “Fixed” notification for version 20.3.1.073.

   Please let us know how we can assist further (e.g., providing test files or additional details).

   Thank you for your attention to this matter.

   Sincerely,

3. [ID-4263586] Adobe InDesign 2025 text justify buttons issue

   In the latest update of InDesign 2025 (as of writing this), there is a problem with the text justification buttons in the toolbar.

   Previously, you could click these buttons and then just keep typing into your currently active text frame, which is what one would expect from previous versions of InDesign.

   With the latest update, keyboard focus instead shifts over to these buttons, taking focus away from the text frame and your current text cursor position.
   This is completely useless, and makes it more difficult than it should be to, say, change the justification at a certain line of text and then keep typing or navigating the text in the frame.

   Would appreciate a fix for this, as it is causing severe interruptions to my workflow, and the feature/bug benefits no one.

5. Some Cyrillic RTF files exported from Indesign are broken if a non-breakable space was used

   Indesign 20.3.1 x64 release.

   Attached is the Indesign file. Both frames are identical, except for the topmost has one non-breaking space and the bottommost has a regular space instead. The export from the top frame produces the buggy RTF (a screenshot of the glitch location is attached), while the bottom one is ok. If we put any non-breaking space there - it will fail as well.
   The bug was reported as font-dependent as well, i.e. the text set in Arial may have the bug while the text set in Minion Pro may not have it.

7. InDesignで日本語入力時、1文字目が勝手に確定される不具合

   iMac Retina 5K, 27-inch, 2020（macOS 15.4.1）にて、InDesign 19.5.3を含む複数バージョンで、日本語入力時の1文字目が自動的に確定されてしまう不具合が発生しています。

   例えば「りんご」と入力しようとすると、「rいんご」や「り」だけが確定されるなど、意図しない文字入力結果になります。

   macOS標準の日本語入力（日本語 - ローマ字）を使用した場合にのみ発生し、Google日本語入力では再現しません。また、IllustratorやTextEditなど他のアプリケーションでは同様の不具合は確認できません。InDesignに特有の問題のようです。

   InDesignおよびmacOSの複数のバージョンの組み合わせで検証しましたが、常に同じ現象が再現されます。

   日本語入力は日常業務で欠かせない基本機能であり、この不具合によってInDesignでの作業が大きく妨げられています。早急な修正対応をお願いいたします。

8. Bolding missed/changed while importing Word doc

   I'm using ID 20.2 on Mac 15.4.1.

   I am producing a book with an index that has bolding to indicate photos, but the bolding was missed or changed in a random manner when imported. It was accurate until it reached E, then there were about 200 errors that had to be manually fixed. Here were my steps:

   • Imported file word doc with Preserve Styles checked

   • Search/repace for bold and italic with bold and italics Character Style

   This should have caught all bold and italics and changed them to my style sheet – but, as mentioned, many were missed, without apparent rhyme or reason.

   Attached is the corrected sample and an error version – repeated the process in ID 2024 to see if it would work, but it didn't work there either. I looked at the Word doc, and I could see no differences in the bolded text formatting.

   This sort of error is troublesome, making my question other supposedly automated aspects of this app and costing time/money in workflow.

   Thanks,

   Gareth

9. Text box disappears when text converted to outlines

   Many sign printers require that all text is converted to outlines. When I do, any text box that has a colour defined disappears. I need to duplicate the box first and delete the text in the underlying box, then convert the above text to outlines. A bit of an arduous process.

   This shouldn't happen – it's been an issue for years.

   Can you please change it so that converting text to outlines doesn't alter the graphics – that is, the coloured and/or stroked text box remains?

   Thanks!

10. Lists ignore alignment when story is subject to object wrapping

    InDesign v20.1.

    Steps to reproduce:
    1. In a blank document, create a new story. Add a few blank lines, then a new paragraph with list settings (either bullets or numbers). Align it to center or right.
    2. Create an ellipsis and set its wrapping options to contour wrapping.
    3. Move the ellipsis so that it intersects the story above the actual list (the list doesn't have to be in range of the wrapping countour).

    Expected result:
    Nothing should happen to the list, since it's far from the wrapping area.

    Actual result:
    The numbers/bullets get aligned the left, no matter what alignment is set.

    Attached are a screenshot of a test file (aligned to the right) and another found in production (aligned center).

11. Library text frame auto-size error

    Product: Adobe InDesign
    Version: 20.2
    Platform: macOS
    Issue type: Bug
    Severity: Moderate
    Reproducible: Always

    Steps to reproduce:
    1. Create a text frame with a single character (e.g. “X”).
    2. Enable Auto-Size (Height only).
    3. Save the text frame to the Library.
    4. Place the frame into a layout from the Library.

    Expected result:
    Text frame should retain Auto-Size setting and adjust to the content’s height.

    Actual result:
    Auto-Size is disabled, and the frame stretches from the insertion point to the bottom of the text frame area / margin, even though there’s only one character inside.

    Workaround:
    If the text frame is grouped with another object (even an invisible one), and saved to the Library as a group, the bug does not occur. The frame is then saved as a Graphic object in the Library, and Auto-Size works as expected.

    Suggested fix:
    Ensure that Auto-Size metadata is preserved when saving standalone text frames to the Library, as with grouped objects.

12. Converting a text URL to a hyperlink removes the instances of the text variables!!!

    1. All InDesign versions
    2. Create a URL that includes Text Variable instance
    3. URL looks and prints correctly,
    4. but hyperlink is wrong: there are no text variables values in it.

    It is obvious that URLs are convenient to generate from text variables. Especially if there are thousands of them!
    This would be a phenomenal solution not only to our problem, but...

    Instead of substituting the values ​​of text variable instances, nothing is replaced (empty strings instead of text variable instances), and the hyperlink (which looks and prints correctly in the text) is generated as invalid!
    We need to create and maintain a script to fix incorrectly generated hyperlinks, but this drawback could be solved at the highest level - just add text variable processing to the hyperlink converter!

13. Portuguese from Portugal

    The Portuguese language originated in Portugal.
    That being said, the Portuguese Dictionary from Portugal implemented in InDesign should align with the native language. In fact, there are numerous supposed errors detected by Dynamic Spelling.
    InDesign insists on not accepting words like "Económico" or "prémios," as it considers them to be mistakes, given that in Brazilian Portuguese, which is a variant of the Portuguese language, they are not written this way. It's about time they fix this issue.
    Thank you.

14. Missing character in CentSchbook CE font in InDesign2025

    Yesterday, while working in Indesign 2025, white spaces appeared in the imported text where the letter "r" should be - one character suddenly disappeared! Even in the font set there is a white space instead (see picture). I tried this set in Word and it continues to appear there. It also appears when I try it in the old version of Indesign CS4. Not here in ID2025. However, about two days ago I was already creating documents in ID2025 with this font set and there was no problem. This is a current problem that I need to resolve immediately. Thanks for the feedback.

15. Issue Report: Kerning Not Applied with Ligatures Enabled in InDesign 2024/2025 (Regression from 2023

    Description:
    A kerning issue occurs in Adobe InDesign 2024 and 2025 when using ligature-supported fonts like Microsoft Uighur Font. Manual kerning adjustments fail to apply when ligatures are enabled. This problem does not occur in InDesign 2023, where disabling ligatures allows kerning to function as expected.

    ---

    Steps to Reproduce:
    1. Font Setup: Use Microsoft Uighur Font in InDesign 2024/2025. (I use my personal font)
    2. Text Input: Type a word containing the ligature اللہ (e.g., any two Arabic text).
    3. Enable Ligatures: Ensure ligatures are turned on (Character panel > Ligatures: ON).
    4. Apply Manual Kerning: Attempt to adjust kerning between characters (e.g., using Alt + Arrow Keys).
    - Observed Result: Kerning adjustments do not take effect.
    5. Disable Ligatures: Turn ligatures off (Character panel > Ligatures: OFF).
    - Observed Result: Kerning now works as expected.

    Expected Behavior:
    Manual kerning should apply regardless of ligature settings, as seen in InDesign 2023.

    Affected Versions:
    - Broken: InDesign 2024 & 2025
    - Working: InDesign 2023

    ---

    Request for Assistance:
    Has anyone encountered this regression? Are there known fixes or workarounds for newer InDesign versions? Testing with Microsoft Uighur Font and the ligature اللہ should replicate the issue. Any guidance or insights would be appreciated!

    (Note: Ensure OpenType features are not overriding settings, and test in a new document with default preferences.)

    When formatting text using a parent page element that's been activated (by using Shift + CMD + Click) on a page, and forcing a paragraph break so that the text goes from two lines to three, the first of the now three lines "hides" behind the second line. The current fix to this issue is to make an edit to the first line so it "pays attention" to the change and goes where it's supposed to.

    Font used: Los Feliz OT, Bold, 27
    Justification: Bottom

    Screenshots included of before the edit, during the edit, and fixed, with hidden characters turned on.

17. InDesign Kerning Bug – Incorrect Character Spacing Display

    I have a bug to report in InDesign (possibly Illustrator). I have already addressed this issue in the community forum, where it has been confirmed by others, so it is not just affecting me:
    https://community.adobe.com/t5/indesign-discussions/indesign-kerning-bug-de-en/m-p/15187583/thread-id/613697#M613832

    There are display errors when adjusting kerning, making precise work impossible. (Kerning is intended for fine-tuning.) When setting the kerning between two characters, the spacing of other characters also visually changes. Please refer to the video for details.

    This issue occurs with both optical and metric kerning, at all zoom levels, on Windows 11 and Windows 10. Even setting the display to high quality does not resolve the issue.

18. Adobe Paragraph Composer interferes with spans and table

    My system: MacOS 15.3.1, Indesign 20.1

    I have found a combination of column spanning paragraphs, a normal paragraph with Adobe Multi-line composer, and a table, causes a very disruptive recompose fault.

    Using my demo Indesign document, type characters in the magenta paragraph where indicated.

    Expected result:
    The character is added, with no dramatic text reflow.

    Actual result:
    On the first character typed, the text reflows, breaking the spanning so that all the text appears only in the left column and no balancing occurs. On the second character typed, it goes back to normal. See attached "demo.gif" and also the forum post I link to below.

    Workaround:
    Changing the last paragraph before the span (the magenta text) to Adobe Single Line Composer fixes the problem.

    Test for yourself:
    Download the .indd file I uploaded to this forum post.

19. Copying text frames results in pasted PDF

    Copying text frames from older versions of InDesign (example 2022 to 2025 – v.20.1) results in a pdf frame, meaning the text is uneditable. The only workaround I have discovered is to copy the text itself, paste it into the new document, and reformat the frame. I believe the discussion posted here - https://community.adobe.com/t5/indesign-discussions/indesign-locking-text-frames-with-old-id-files/m-p/15147987 – is referring to the same issue.

20. [ID-4260027] “Change Case” option does not refresh when opening saved search

    “Change Case” option does not refresh when opening saved search
    When a “Change Case” option is set on the GREP tab of the Find/Change dialog, it remains active until it is manually cleared or InDesign is restarted. This is a problem since it means that saved searches are producing unexpected results. Other options in the “change format” refresh as expected, so this appears to be a bug. It is especially problematic when running a chain of GREP searches because incorrect capitalization can result in numerous errors.
