InDesign Just Doesn't Work
In a brand new file with 300 pages, tried placing a 100-page Word file numerous times, and it just wouldn't work. After a certain number of pages, the text would just stop. Sometimes, it would think that there was more text that I could place on the next page frame, and when I'd do those steps, it would just either create another blank frame, or pile multiple new frames of text on a single page. This is basic functionality that should be bulletproof, and it isn't. (For reference, I'm a long-time tech author who even taught PageMaker to clients in…

pages shuffle
Indesign 16.2.1
When trying to move spreads around in the pages panel when small thumbnails are used and "allow document pages to shuffle" turned on, I'm unable to move them in between spreads because there's not enough room for the cursor – I'm only able to attach them to either side of an existing spread.
Turning the thumbnails to medium or larger alleviates this problem.

table content moving even if there is enough room
This is getting ridiculous, there are so many bugs in this program it's barely usable anymore. I have a 2 column layout, some content spans to 1 column. Sometimes when there is a table that spans it moves the table to the next page even if there is enough room. The only way to fix this is to make another text box and link them together. This is a huge pain ********** and makes it difficult when there are footnotes. It's a span bug and has been around for a while. Instead of making new features can you fix the…

Anomalous character missing glyph in the Story editor – Serious file problems
I report a bug regarding an InDesign document of an anomalous character that is found in the "Story editor", which has already been reported in older versions of Adobe Indesign.
(OS version: BigSur 11.3.1)
(Adobe InDesign version: 16.2)As you can see in the examples that I attach, the text presents problems and I believe it is caused (or highlighted) by the missing glyph signs in each line of the "story editor", which does not appear to exist in the text.
The problem is not solved by making the file idml.
I tried to fix it by copying the text…5 votes -

Impossible to type the dimensions of a document
When you want to personalize your own dimension on a document, you cannot just click on the sizes and enter the number, you have to put the cursor, then errase and then write, it is not convenient at all !

Pages Palette Bug
Hello,
- Create a new document with 5 pages.
- Draw out a text frame on each page and insert a number starting with "5" on page 1, "4" on page 2, "3" on page 3, "2" on page 4 and "1" "on page 5.
- Now try to sort the numbers into the correct order (1, 2, 3, 4, 5) by dragging the thumbnails to the correct place in the Pages palette. You will not succeed because the respective side always jumps one position too far. I reported this bug over a year ago and it still isn't fixed! (Indesign version 16.1)

On some pages (even Master) there are wrong letters in the filenames output, on other pages the filename ist correctly. It happens randomly in the same document. I've seen it in several documents.

URL link loses its link info
When importing a Word file whose text includes over 150 URLs, the link info gets dropped for some of those links. This has happened with several competely different projects for me. I am including the Word file, and also a PDF -- exported from the INDD file. The bad links are circled in the PDF (as comments).
Evidently this site does not allow me to upload the INDD file (even when it is Zipped) -- which seems odd, since you might need it to diagnose the problem.
THIS IS A BUG REPORT, not an "idea". Prior versions of InDesign did…1 vote -
