1. Font appearance issues in Id 2018

   I have recently purchase a new Mac. Running High Sierra 10.13.2 and Id 2018. Any time I open a file with Helvetica in it the font is garbled. Is this one of the issues that people have been experiencing with the upgrade to High Sierra? How can this be fixed?

   I can't downgrade my operating system as the computer is brand new and I need to use this computer for work. Any help would be much appreciated.

3. Texte disappear when replacing font by another using Find a font in the Texte menu

   Using the command "Search for a font" in the "Text Menu" to replace a font (Times New Roman for example) by another (Adobe Garamond Pro for example), the texte disappear, it is erased if I valid "Replace All".
   I have to verify it works for the first occurrences before to validate "Replace All" to be sure the bug will not occur.
   This is very insecure if we don't verify and trust the command "eyes closed" !

5. arabic

   Cursor Direction when typing Arabic or other RTL languages. in Middle Eastern version ONLY.

   1. All Middle Eastern versions (English يدعم العربية)

   2. Type Arabic text. Place the cursor within text. Hold "Shift" key and click on right arrow key on the keyboard to select/highlight text. Cursor moves left and select next character on the left while clicking on right arrow.

   3. To select a character to the left of the cursor, we should hold (Shift+left arrow) To select a character to the right of the cursor, we should hold (Shift+right arrow)

   4. What actually is happening now and for over 20 years when we had Adobe PageMaker ME and Adobe Illustrator ME is the opposite cursor behavior to the what we're trying to select. We hold (Shift+right arrow) cursor will move and select text to the left, we hold (Shift+left arrow) cursor will move and select text to the right.

6. middle east defaults

   Controlling defaults for ME options - doesn't work for cut/paste?

   I'm using the ME edition of InDesign 2018. The majority of my work is exclusively left-to-right, so I've set all default options to those appropriate to English (UK) text. This works fine when I'm creating a text box with the text tool, but when I cut/paste text without having a cursor in a pre-existing text box, the automatically-created new text box always has "right-to-left text direction" selected in its Story options. Is there any way I can change this default?

7. Find Glyph uses character style set in the Text tab

   It's not possible to set a character style in the Glyph tab of the Find/Change window. But if you set a character style in the Text tab, the Glyph tab uses that style to limit the search scope.

   Steps to reproduce:

   1. Start a new document, add a character style. (Doesn't matter what formatting you add to the character style.)
   2. Place a text frame and enter 'xx'.
   3. Apply the character style you added in step 1 to the first x.
   4. Set the character style in the Find Format field of the Text tab of the Find/Change window.
   5. Go to the Glyph tab, set it to search x in the applied font.

   Actual result: InDesign finds only the character to which the character style was applied.

   Expected result: that InDesign finds all characters x.

   (This is either a bug or an undocumented feature)

   Need More Info  ·  amaarora responded

   Hi,
   In step 4, are you setting the find format field to be the character style you have created in step step 1?
   If yes, then InDesign will only find those “x” which have the character style same as in the find format field (=character style created in step 1 and applied to only first x)

   Please can you elaborate a little more on the steps.

8. Primary Text Frame auto flow does strange things

   Auto text-flow suddenly produces this result while auto-adding new pages to fit the text-length.

   Maybe it wants me to produce more "experimental books"… who knows.

9. cannot place XLSX table

   I'm unable to place an Excel file/table. When I choose Place...select any Excel file (.xls or .xlsx) and check "Import Options":
   - Options dialog appears, but no fields are selectable, except decimal places.
   - Click OK, and I get nothing. No error message, and no content.

   If I place a file WITHOUT options, I get the content of the Excel NOT as a table, but as tab-delimited text. This is not acceptable, as the integrity of the table is lost when I "convert text to table." Where there are (supposed to be) empty cells, data from other cells appears where a cell should be empty.

10. fonts appearing as distressed almost

    Some fonts appear as distressed. Almost like there's a pattern overlay on them. It changes as you move the text box around on the screen. Doesn't export into pdf like this, only in active document (see blue text, I've included what appears in indesign and how it looks normally)

11. Table with Alternating Row Stroke

    When using a table with alternating row strokes, the stroke between the first and second rows is always 1pt, not matter what the cell or table style is set to.

    In this example, every other row of the body should be stroked at .5pt. Everything works except the first row, which is 1pt.

13. Auto-sizing text frames not working

    When I try to auto-size a text box in "Text Frame Options," nothing happens. I generally click on the text box, open the text frame options panel with command-B and click on the auto-size tab. Once inside that panel, I attempt to auto-size. Nothing is grayed out so it appears as if it would work, but when I click on "width only" (or any other option), nothing happens and it just stays on the original selection. And I can't seem to find a work around either.

15. caps

    Everytime I type a capital "I" all letters following are all CAPS. It only does it when I type that letter. Then after I select the text to change it to lower case the only way to get the cursor back in my control is to do a DESELECT ALL COMMAND. Otherwise the sentence stays selected and stuck. Another thing it does if not all caps is it changes to first letter in the entire sentence will be Capitalized like a title character style. My text is a set character style that I have set to be regular format, not small caps etc. When I changed it to "ignore" it still had the bug.

17. World-Ready Composer Is messing up the kerning in Latin fonts

    I have reported a variation of this—back with CS6—but it seems not to have been fixed. I assume it's a bug, but if someone can enlighten me about what I might be doing wrong and how I can fix this, I'd appreciate it.

    I often work on books that include Arabic and Hebrew words and phrases in the middle of English text. They only way to get the Arabic ligatures to form is to use one of the World Ready composers. When I do that, though, the kerning around some English characters often—but not always—is affected. I have tried turning on and off various settings—justification settings, kashidas, etc.—and their effect seems to be random. Sometimes the changes fix the problem until the page redraws, sometimes the errant kerning is corrected in one location but shows up in another location, sometimes nothing happens at all. I'm attaching two screen captures of a book that I have in production now with the word "economics" selected in each. In the shot with the World-Ready Paragraph Composer active, you can see the extra kerning between the "e" and the "c." In the shot with the WRPC deactivated, the word looks as it should.

    Is this a bug? If not, what am I doing wrong? If it is, when might we expect a fix. Unfortunately, I have a deadline on this project now and can't see any reasonable way to fix this. Thanks for considering this problem.

18. Undo does not work properly on deleted text, it only deletes one character at a time instead of whole block of text

    I am on a Mac and this is a problem with InDesign 2018.

    If you backspace delete two or more characters from text, undo (Ctrl+Z) only restores one character at a time instead of the whole block that was deleted in that action.

    Undo worked fine in previous versions of InDesign, and it works fine in Word and other apps.

    I have tried deleting InDesign preferences and caches and even reinstalled it with import previous prefereces unchecked, but the problem remains, and I cannot find any solution. Can someone please help?

20. Note strip content in cross references panel varies

    1. Indesign CC 2018
    2. Open a document with cross refs.
    3. When hovering with the mouse over a cross ref in the cross ref panel a note strip appears, showing some information about the page it points to and also the page of the source.
    4. On some cross refs it does not. There it shows the cross ref text. This seems to be due to the cross ref format being slightly different, but all pointing to level 3 headlines.
    5. See attached images adobeerror5.1.jpg (correct note strip) and adobeerror5.2.jpg (false note strip)
