Copy paste not workingI was designing a book by copying the text from word and pasting in indesign it was working fine. But now when I am trying to paste it, it is not working.

Please provide a solution as soon as possible. 4 votes

Open more than one InDesign fileInDesign gets really slow after opening more than one document at a time The Problem ist, that the Users can open more than one but InDesign get slower an slower, till you have to wait a couple of minutes until you can work on the selected item.

All InDesign 15.0x EXTREMELY SLOWAll InDesign 15.0x is EXTREMELY SLOW, almost unusable. 
 I had to go back to version 14.03 to be able to work. This is on Windows 10 Pro 64 bit, v1909. It takes minutes to paste a picture.

unasked for font changes in 15.0.2It isn't so much an idea as a major problem. I upgraded to 15.0.2 yesterday and now fonts are being changed involuntarily and when I go into find font, I can't change them back. The names say they are there but the file looks like ****. I've gone back to InDesign CC 2019 to work, because I am completely stuck in CC 2020. 4 votes

15.0.1 doesn't find fonts in document fonts folderIf I open a document that has a Document fonts folder [in the same folder as the document itself], InDesign 15.0.1 consistently fails to find those fonts or let me select them. So the document opens showing all those fonts as missing and there's no way to fix the problem. 4 votes

Cursor - Zoom in and out/left and right on trackpad not workingWhen using my trackpad on Windows 10, two fingers up and down works when editing a document. Two fingers left and right does nothing and pinching in and out doesnt zoom, it scrolls right to left. This is the same across all my adobe platforms. Everything else on my laptop scrolls accordingly on the trackpad. 
 I only downloaded the adobe software last night and my laptop is brand new yesterday. All updates are up to date.Thank you for helping in advance. 4 votes

Corrupt overlay palette window -- stretched and can't be closedThe overlay palette window is ever-present when I open InDesign. Every time I close it from the 'window's dropdown (as it is to wide to find the X close window icon, it just keeps reopening? It is too wide to fit on the screen, and the text in the panel is pixelated. I have tried docking it to other windows to contain it, but it corrupts those too. Anyone else had this problem? 4 votes

QR code generation updatesI love using the QR code generation. However, I am limited to only a few options. My suggestion is to add more options such as, upon scanning the code it would play an audio or a video file. Or, an option to redirect upon scanning to the App Store, or Play Store etc. 4 votes

GREP, odd behaviour in InDesign v. 14.0.2Search and replace with GREP in InDesign version 14.0.2 behaves oddly. This simple GREP used to work fine: 
 (?<=\s)([\u\s\,]+)$It matches upper case letters, commas and space between them at the end of a paragraph. But now it only matches some of them. Really strange. 4 votesBased on user response, marking this as Fixed. —

Gradient Angle Resets to Default when Changing Color in Gradient SwatchI have an object selected that has a gradient swatch applied to it, and the gradient goes from top to bottom. I then go to the color menu and double-click the gradient swatch. Now when I click on one of the two color squares in the gradient swatch the angle of the gradient on the selected object will revert back to its default angle (left to right). This only happens to objects that I have selected. Both on my macbook and windows pc. InDesign version 14.0.1 4 votes

InDesign Fonts folder no longer respects symlinks (2019, Mac)The Fonts folder in the InDesign 2019 application folder no longer follows symlinks, as previous versions did. I prefer to keep my InDesign fonts separate from my system fonts, and in previous versions placed a symlink to my font folder in the InDesign application folder, titled "Fonts." InDesign would follow that link, and I would have access to all of my fonts within InDesign, without needing to install them user- or system-wide. In InDesign 2019, no symlinks are followed - not on the top level, and not inside the folder either. (Tested by symlinking one font or one folder inside… 4 votesHello All, Thank you for reporting the issue to us.
