package folder name
INDD 15.1, Mac OS 10.15.5
With the 15.1 update, when packaging a file, the folder name is no longer highlighted. I, like most people, delete the word "Folder" that INDD adds to the packaged folder name. In previous versions, the folder name was highlighted in the package window so that hitting the right arrow would move the cursor to the end allowing one to delete "Folder." Now one has to click into the name field to change it. This release has added an extra step. Please revert to how it used to work. Or better yet, stop adding "Folder" to…3 votes -
Lagging/text doubling when changing paragraph styles
When changing paragraph styles the remaining text moves, but kind of doesn't refresh without me clicking away from the frame with the cursor or zooming in. What happens is I get double text which is confusing. Crashing is happening too at this point.

InDesign CC 2020 - Error trying to package editorial projects
the last few days Ive been trying to package documents and I keep getting the same error (for whatever editorial project I have) that says "Indesign cannot package the document... Cannot copy necessary linked file(s)" (see printscreen) but all files are properly linked, in CMYK and 300dpi's (as I need them to be - never encounter this issue in over a decade of using Indesign) so Im kinda despairing here since Im on a schedule...
Does anyone know how to help please??
Thanks in advance.3 votes -
Creep leaves a white gap
Print to Booklet does have a creep setting, to compensate for paper thickness in a saddle stitched booklet. But there is a problem is on the coverpages, since the added creep leaves a white gap on the 'back' where the staples are placed, even when the document has enough bleed to fill this space.

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 –…

Indesign doesn´t load printer configuration
When I try to print and go to printer preferences, InDesign does not load the preferences saved in the driver for printing modes, paper sizes, etc. It is an Epson SC-P800.

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!

No preset options showing in InDesign when trying to output high res pdf
Yes, I'm trying to output a high res pdf for print and I'm attempting to apply the usual Colour conversion / Destination and only offered either CMYK or RGB as an option.
No other presets. E.G Working CMYK- Coated FOGRA39 etc.

I looked in Library in Presets and there only seems to be a in Alias see attached2 votes -
15.1 and 15.1.1 Locking up and freezing when opening packaged files
Same bug that we had with CS6.
Basically if a Document Fonts folder exists, then opening the INDD file takes forever and/or freezes up constantly while working. But if we rename the subfolder or delete it altogether, then ID performs normally.

Packaging dialogue location default
Please have the document packaging dialogue default to the folder the InDesign file your packaging from is located in. Up till InDesign 2020 this was the default, now it is packaging things wherever something was saved last.

spotcolor name in x-4 exported pdf not a valid utf-8 string
When creating a PDF using german umlauts using InDesign for OS X and export the file as PDF/X-4, the Umlauts are displayed correctly in Acrobat for OS X, but wrong in Acrobat for Windows (and vice versa).
Acrobat Preflight flags the spot colors as " not a valid UTF-8 string"
It looks like the spot colors is generated with the coding of the respective OS, which is not valid by the PDF/X-4 specification

lexmark printer not printing all elements
We use Lexmark Laser Printer model CS820
Windows 10 OSWe use our indesign file as a template to print custom certificates.
We change the name on the certificate for each customer.
The printer will not print all elements of a design: i.e. the images and text are missing.And
Files will often not print immediately but will 'sit' in the printer memory for up to several minutes before printing.
For a print business this is not acceptable. Please advise with working solutions.
We have a Lexmark CS827 and this works fine.

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.
