ID - CMYK separation preview vs. RGB illustrations
Hey there,
every InDesign Version (my Version Adobe InDesign CC 2018 13.1)
a) open new print CMYK document
b) place a Ai object like .eps or .ai with RGB modus (with a black element – in RGB 0/0/0 – but in CMYK 88/79/65/93)
c) now copy the object and convert the same object into CMYK modus and place them too
d) start the CMYK separation preview in InDesign and disable the black color
e) at the end only the CMYK object is separated and the RGB object is totally awayI wish the RGB object would separated like the rectangle –…

linked files ignored upon packaging
- Adobe InDesign Version 13.1 x64 on Windows
- images are linked within the document and shown as such. When I package the document, it shows "0 links found" and no linked files are packaged
- This is the first time I've packaged a document since upgrading to INDD 2018. Have never had it ignore links before
- No linked files are packaged
- It sees the links... but not in the "package" menu

printer
InDesign fails to print on networked printer.
Installed HP OfficeJet 6958 using HP "Wizard" to download drivers and install.
Printer is installed over wireless network (connected through router).Same error occurred when installing Canon iP110 using downloaded installer (it installed as Canon iP110 Series WS) (But CAN print to Canon iP110 installed through "add printer")
All other applications print fine, including PhotoShop and Acrobat.
InDesign goes through print process (window pops up to show pages being processed), but does not print. File does not appear in printer queue.
This occurs with all documents - graphics, non-graphics, etc.

Get error message when exporting document to PDF
InDesign CC2018 (13.1) -- will get an error message when exporting a document to PDF, especially if it is saving over and replacing a previous PDF version. Then both versions disappear from the finder, and then I can sometimes successfully export the document. Usually takes a couple of attempts before it can export a viable PDF. This just started happening.

Printing scale issues when printing with different color output options for composites
Hello everyone,
spotted nasty printing bug.
When printing using "scale to fit", OUTPUT->Color: Composite and OUTPUT->Color: InRip or just Separations then the prints do not match (crop marks, image etc.) between "Composite" and "Separations".
Paper size and printer model doesn't matter.
Versions tested: InDesign CS6, CC17, CC18 all on OS X 10.10, 10.13
Test file attached.1 vote -

Image color settings get lost when duplicating image or when data merging
If a placed image has an icc-profile different from the documents' profile, that profile assigment will get lost when the image is being duplicated. The same thing is going to happen if the document is being data merged for variable data printing. The image will have a wrong profile assignment in the additional records when creating the merged document. Only the first record will be properly printed, the duplicates won't. Test files attached.
6 votesBy default color profiles are not maintained while copy-pasting and this behavior exists since CS6.
To enable the behavior of maintaining a color profile while performing copy-paste action, we need to apply the required settings at the application/document level under the color settings dialog from the edit menu.
To do so, open color settings and set color management policies for CMYK to preserve embedded profiles.Closing the issue as designed.

ePub
I create very simple ePubs in Indesign CC 2018. When I export them as ePub version 3 they print perfectly from Adobe Digital Editions on a Mac but print as blank pages or spool to postscript indefinitely from Adobe Digital Editions, on a PC, in Windows. When exported in the older version ePub 2.01 they work and print fine on both Mac and Windows. So my question is: why is ePub version 3 an option from Indesign when it isn't fully supported in Adobe Digital Editions on the Windows platform most popular with the user base? Is there a solution/workaround…

layer
A non-visible layer makes background printing from an imported illustrator file disappear on 2nd page. Was printing using the 'print' indd file.
Also, hidden layers can also show the text as rasterized boxes if not updated.I lost money and a print task because of it.

When stepping an repeating
Not really a bug, but would make more sense to put the dimensions before the number to step or have it default to a blank palette every time. If the values exceed the page then it automatically converts it back to the previous numbers. While it's an easy fix, it is still frustrating. Still, indd by far one of my faves of all time. Very artist friendly!

Files with special characters
When linking files with special characters in their name (German umlauts, to be precise) on an Apple Macintosh system, exporting the project and transferring the whole stuff to a windows system, everything looks perfect, but
- links in the indd file to assets with umlauts are recorded as missing
- relinking on a per-folder-basis does not find them, eitherWorkaround: re-link each file on a per-file basis.
Guess there is something wrong in the way indesign handles the file names internally (i.e. some encoding issue).

Printer configuration
Since the updates on Tuesday, January 23 2018, I am unable to print using my printer's fold and staple feature, which has never been a problem in the past. Also, I now have a notice that fonts are missing from my computer, and these are fonts I have used for several years.

Printing Error: Problem initializing the current printer - Check the system print setting?
Printing Error: Problem initializing the current printer - Check the system print setting?
I have not changed anything in my settings for this error to occur? The previous version works and I have cross-referenced all my settings and they match but it will not allow the print booklet export to the Adobe PDF drive which has always worked?
8 votesSometimes, InDesign might crash while accessing the printer setup or while printing documents with some specific printers. The crash is intermittent and specific to Windows only.
Currently, this issue is observed with the following printers when their drivers are not updated:
• Konica Minolta
• Canon ColorPass
• LANIERIf the printer you are using is not listed here or if updating the drivers of the listed printers does not resolve the issue, please share the following information at sharewithID@adobe.com to help us investigate the issue further:
• Printer driver and printer setup details.
• The configuration of your printer – local, network, or wireless.
• Is the printer configured as your default printer?
