Defined Names in .xlsx files Do Not Work When not specified in A1:Z9 format
To Reproduce:
- Create an excel spreadsheet
- Create a table (example table below)
- Name a range:
- Insert^Name^Define Name
- Use the default "Refers to:" (=Table1[#All])
- Do this a second time
- Use a specific range that is the same area (=Sheet1!$A$1:$C$11)
- Save the fileAttempt to Place in Adobe. Note that the second range is available for placement, the first is not. It seems that any named ranges that don't specify cells, and instead specify other placeholders (i.e. =Table1[[#All],[Description]:[Amount]]) do not work.

Stile di carattere
Non è una nuova idea. è un bug dall'ultimo aggiornamento. Se faccio una stringa di testo e seleziono stile di carattere ad esempio corsivo, tondo chiaro ecc. selezionando la singola parola e applico lo stile influisce sull'intera strinca a differenza della precedente versione che teneva lao stile solo sul testo selezionato pur nella stressa riga.

Error on Save : "Indesign is unable to save this file. We tried, but appears to be damaged."
Just started happening with v18.5. And only with very specific files? Have a fairly simple file that I drop PDFs into. If the PDF's on the page that generates the thumbnail it'll fail. If you then resave over the same filename it'll save happily. Doesn't happen if you start from a new file, or from other more complicated files but is very replicable.
Have tried clearing preferences.

A problem about converting right-to-left text to the newest version
Hello,
I have been using Indesign v18.5 and created a lot of documents for a book in Hebrew and Arabic.
My paragraph styles have the property "Character Direction: Default" which, of course, organized my text as RTL for Hebrew and Arabic, and LTR for English text.
After converting the documents to the newest version (v19.0), some (and only some) of the punctuation marks (such as ".", "!", "?") and even some of the spaces, were placed in a wrong manner: to the right side of the text, instead of being placed to the left of the text as they are…1 vote -

Broken/missing assignments can't be deleted or fixed
I've opened an InDesign document from earlier this year (created in an InDesign 2023 version). The document contains many incopy assignments - some of which are now missing. It will let me delete most of the missing assignments (no longer needed anyway) but a selection of them will not delete at all, and show the pencil icon that says 'in use by me' when i hover over, despite having literally just opened the file and not clicked into anything.
This happens when any of my team open the file (we use Microsoft Share Point to access files). I can't right…

PROBLEME [Lecture seule]
Bonjour, J'ai un problème depuis les mises à jour de InDesign 2023 et 2024, presque à chaque fois que j'ouvre un fichier Indd, il s'ouvre en "Lecture seule"...
Alors que je n'ai rien changé par rapport à avant, donc ça semble être lié à un problème lié à InDesign plutôt qu'à l'ordinateur. Je suis donc obligé très souvent soit de fermer le fichier et le rouvrir ou l'enregistrer sous une nouvelle version pour pouvoir faire des modifications... Pour info ce problème persiste sur tout types de fichier et de version InDesign...
Pourriez-vous m'aider et avez-vous déjà eu le problème ? …1 vote -
Updating in InDesign does not work with add-in software.
Updating in InDesign does not work with add-in software. This is very inconvenient as the system is updated once a year. The high cost of add-in software makes it difficult to purchase add-in software frequently. When updating InDesign, please take care to ensure that the old add-in software can be used. I am having a very difficult time. I demand improvement.

anchored object ignores textwrap of the first line
When anchoring an Object in a text and selecting the object to wrap around the text, the first line ignores this command.
When searching for a solution, i stumbled upon this entry describing the problem.the only solution seems to be to anchor the text in a previous line.
However, I want my textanchor to be on the right spot, so a screenreader can read it correctly - so anchoring it one line above is no option for me.
Is there a fix to this problem?3 votes -

Wonky text on the Home Screen in InDesign OS Ventura
This has been appearing since I updated to a new Mac Studio and InDesign 18.5 on OS Ventura. The text goes all weird on the Home Screen. I can't read what the document title is. There's been instances where the same file name appears twice also. It's annoying!

Data Merge, CSV file containing column header named 'table'
A CSV file with a column header named 'table' will fail to import with 'Data Merge > Select Data Source.' No errors are given. The 'Data Merge' panel remains unpopulated.
Changing the header to something else, e.g. 'Table', will work.
Adobe InDesign 18.5 on Windows 10 and macOS Monterey. 18.4 behaves the same way.
