EPUB Export with JPG images causes a validation error for the cover image due to an **already identified** InDesign bug
When you Export an EPUB with JPG images, it always causes a file type validation error for the cover image.
I have already identified the bug in InDesign. Instead of turning the cover art into an actual .jpg format, InDesign instead just rasterizes the first page of the book as a .png and changes the extension name of a .png file to .jpg without actually being the correct file format.
Please fix this.

EPUB – Endnote backlink issues for INDB files
When exporting EPUB 3.0 (and 2.01) from an InDesign(2022, version 17.4) book file, endnotes only link in the first chapter where they are found. Subsequent chapters reveal <a> tags with empty href attributes.
Backlinks are required by virtually all ebook publishers. For academic books, endnotes are essential and the request for EPUB formats is only increasing.So far Adobe Car's response: "Currently, we do not have a workaround for this issue other than creating a single document instead of book or manually modifying backlink in the exported EPUB file." This isn't acceptable or even always possible.
5 votesFix for this issue is now available in the latest release of InDesign 2023 - that is, InDesign 18.1 version.
Please update to this version of InDesign to get the fix.

Embed Image Blocks not supported in PublishingOnline
Adobe Indesign CC 2023 (18.1)
I recently wanted to create a more immersive viewing experience of my 3D designs by inserting holographic image blocks as an embed in a PublishOnline document (if you haven't seen this excellent technology you should check out "LookingGlass" https://blocks.glass/).
While testing this out I've run into a problem with the publishing of the document. Using the "Object/Insert HTML" and pasting the Image Block's embed code:
<div class="lkg-blocks-player" style="padding:133.333% 0 0 0;position:relative;"><iframe src="https://blocks.glass/embed/3450" frameborder="0" style="position:absolute;top:0;left:0;width:100%;height:100%;" allow="autoplay; encrypted-media; xr-spatial-tracking; accelerometer; gyroscope; magnetometer" allowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen="true" webkitallowfullscreen="true" execution-while-out-of-viewport="true" execution-while-not-rendered="true"></iframe></div>
everything works great while in Indesign (screenshot of the…

Publish Online thicker navigation arrows - option to turn OFF
The hard coded previous/next page arrows are noticeably thicker and can spoil some designs and therefore the user experience. Can we have an option to turn them OFF.
Ajar In5 already has this. Seems like a simple enough option?

Publish Online documents have become very slow to load
Since the dashboard update, analytics 'since published' will NOT load.
We're also noticing publish online documents are very slow to load initially.
I'm presuming this is all server side issues at Adobe and would like to know if its being fixed.
Are you forcing browsers to cache online publications before loading?
These are both major issues that might force us to see alternative solutions if not fixed soon.

Grey outlines around pictures in Publish Online
About 1/7 of every picture has grey lines partially surrounding it, but only when I publish online. Not when I export as PDF. There's plenty of image available beyond the edges of the image box, so I don't know why it does this.

class names when exporting to html
Hi,
would be nice if paragraph or character styles would be saved intact when exporting to html. I work with a lot of books to create epub versions, and many of them have class names like - 1, 2, 3. or 1level, 2level, etc. When exporting to html all names where digits at the begiingis of class name, are changed to ''. So 1-level = _-level, 2-level = _-level. Which creates obvious problem. Would be nice if other solution would be applied, for example - html1-level, html_2-level, or anything else, but with names intact.

Publish Online Embed and Interactivity
When embedding a Publish Online document in a webpage, "read now" appears in the center of the document, and when the document is clicked, it goes into fullscreen mode. The problem is, once in fullscreen the "read now" button does not go away and prevents any of the interactive features in my document from being used. Once in fullscreen, the "read now" interface needs to go away.
It may also be useful to change how a user accesses fullscreen from an embedded document. They may not want to use fullscreen but are forced to when they interact with the document.

Crash on HTML export when notes contain hyperlinks, and messed up HTML
Steps to reproduce
1. Export the attached file starting with "B272" as HTML
2. BUG: ID crashes
3. EXPECTED: No crash
4. QUICK FIX: Remove all notes that contain hyperlinks
5. RESULT: No crash on exportNote: The reason for crashing is NOT that many of the URLs contain a colon in a non-standard place. You can enter any URL and it will still crash.
This problem happens with about 80% of files with links in endnotes. It will not happen when endnotes are converted to footnotes. 20% of the files do export without crashing, but the HTML of endnotes…

publish indesign file not working with Indesign 2023
Indesign 2023. MacOS 12.6.1. Shared Device License (Lab iMacs). When going to Publish an Indesign document it errors. Installed 2022 version of Indesign, the Publish option works.
When attempting this on a Mac with a Named License it works though, but not when using this in a Lab (Higher Ed) on iMacs with the Shared Device License.

DAY 62 - Slow Publish Online document loading - Case ADB-25741223-T9S3
I'm getting very tired with this - Publish Online still slow loading, feel it's like knocking your head against. a brick wall!!!!

It used to be incredibly fast loading, now it's sloooooooow!I keep getting told it will be resolved in the latest Indesign update - of course it isn't, it's the servers where the documents are…

Indesign published document - not listed on the 'publish online dashboard'
Yesterday I published a presentation and shared it with the client - this morning I went to view analytics for the published document in my online dashboard but it's not listed there. The published document I shared is still working but I have no way to see the analytics for the document. I've tried clearing browser history, signing out of indesign and refreshing browser many times but no change. I can see the other documents that I published yesterday that I don't need the analytics for.
Any suggestions or solutions please? Is this a known bug?
I'm on a MacBook…

Publish online: Video sound overlaps on multiple pages
I regularly need to upload presentations using Publish Online in Indesign. When you start viewing pages, video sound overlaps and plays despite that page not being selected. I have found that once the pages have finished "loading" in the browser, and you start the presentation again, this no longer happens. However, this doesn't help if you have a client wanting to view the link for the first time, and the sound is overlapping.
I have tried different browsers, and the problem is the same in each one.
The only solve is to not have videos play sound, but this is…1 vote -
epub and mp3
To adobe,
I am an InDesign user, to create the e-book for the publish.Today, I face a serious problem and hope to find out a solution.
It is the problem, I insert mp3, each page around 4, the similar page around 30-40 page.
The mp3 maybe not the same on each page, it’s may different, test in the InDesign app, and all is fine.
If exported to PDF, also it is fine and could sound normally.
However, if exported to EPUB, the first 16 of the mp3 file, also means the first 4 pages can work, the rest of…

Nav bar size change ruins my web app layout
Adobe have recently made the Nav bar at the bottom of the Publish Online interface fatter, unfortunately for my company, this means a carefully crafted web-app now has the Nav bar covering the lower part of my menu. It also on some PO documents, stays popped-up for much longer than 5 seconds, sometimes on single page documents, up to 15 seconds.
Adobe say this is because they wanted to improve accessibility, but really they're messing with a space that shouldn't keep changing, as per the margin around PO documents they added earlier in the year. Improve the products - yes,…1 vote
