1. Problems with text tool?

   The text visually compresses for no reason. I need to restart Indesign every 5 minutes.

2. dropbox links

   Indesign use to be smart enough to know that links are from dropbox and looks for the my dropbox folder and not the link path that goes all the way to the drive name.

   But lately every time I open a file from a team member, I have to relink ever file manually.

3. Stop adding the word "Folder" to packaged file names.

   Stop adding the word "Folder" to packaged files. My folder names are already long enough and I can tell by the icon that my end product is a folder without it ending in the word "Folder." Would be thrilled if you removed this automatic addition from InDesign.

4. Color Settings change to Emulate InDesign 2.0

   Color Mode changes from whatever is set in InDesign when switching app from Adobe Photoshop to InDesign (latest versions) ... I am getting the same problem when switching from Photoshop to the latest Illustrator as well.

   Problem Occurs even when InDesign (and Illustrator) are both shut down. After launching Photoshop and then shutting Photoshop down, Color Settings in InDesign and Illustrator are both changed to "Emulate".

   PLEASE FIX IMMEDIATELY!!!! THIS IS A HUGE PROBLEM and impacts my workflow horribly as I am back-and-forth between these applications regularly.

   I have checked Bridge as well... and default is set to North American Prepress 2.

   Running:
   InDesign 16.1
   Photoshop 22.3.0
   Mac OS 10.15.7

6. Shared CC Library

   The WHOLE purpose of a "SHARED CC LIBRARY" is to be able to keep a single and universal source of truth for EVERY element within the library across all uses of the element – on all files.

   There is an issue achieving this.

   When I add an illustrator file to the CC Shared Library from within Indesign, and I go to edit that element, it:

   Opens a new InDesign file, where you can make the change,
   save the change, and the change is displayed on the thumbnail of the shared element, and does in fact update the shared element.

   HOWEVER....

   It does not update the element displayed on the InDesign file you're working on!

   If The same illustrator file is added to the shared library FROM Illustrator directly, then when you double click on that element in the shared library from within InDesign, it will open IN Illustrator where you can make your changes, and when you save it, it also AUTOMATICALLY updates every instance where that element is used across ALL shared files.

   This doesn't;t make any sense. It should not matter how you add the element to the library, IF the library accepts the element.

   There is another glitch that even makes this more confusing.

   If I have multiple items on a page in InDesign, and I group them together and drag the group over to the CC Shared library, The Library "accepts" the group.

   Then, when you double click the element, it opens a new page in InDesign.

   when you go to edit the text in InDesign – Text that was created FROM INDESIGN, and save your change, it updates the Library element BUT does not update any instance where that is used.

   Again, this doesn't make any sense and seems to defeat the purpose of storing universal items in the library.

8. Uservoice page bug

   The uservoice page, when posting or updating an idea/bug report would not accept attachments where the extension is in capital letters, such as the Windows Snipping tool would save them when creating screenshots. Means, a file with appendix *.PNG is not accepted, but one with *.png is.

   That's stupid programming!

10. imported excel number spaces are replaced with an 'Ê' on Mac

    I'm on a Macbook pro M1, working on an InDesign file. I get some XLSX files with tables containing numbers in them, and when I place them into my document, all spaces between numbers are replaced with an 'Ê'.

    e.g. 123 456 789 will be placed as 123Ê456Ê789.

    I've asked someone to test it out on windows and it does not happen. I belive it is a IOS issue only....?

11. Style Mapping to [Basic Paragraph] doesn’t work with remembered settings or presets

    When you place (import) a Word document into InDesign, you can choose to use Style Mapping to map the paragraph and character styles in Word to their equivalents in your InDesign document. When you use this feature for the first time in a document, the mappings get stored somewhere and are remembered for any subsequent imports you perform in the same document; you can also choose to save your import settings, including Style Mappings, as a preset to use freely in any document.

    If you map any Word styles to the default [Basic Paragraph] style in InDesign, it works as expected the first time (when you actively select [Basic Paragraph] from the dropdown menu). But if you do another import where InDesign reads the Style Mappings from a file – either by using the cached Style Mappings that InDesign has remembered from last time, or by using a saved preset – any style that is mapped to [Basic Paragraph] will not work properly. Instead of mapping the Word style to the existing, built-in [Basic Paragraph], what happens is that a second paragraph style is created with the name [Basic Paragraph], and with properties (font, size, etc.) matching the formatting of the Word style, rather than the built-in [Basic Paragraph] style. This should not even be possible, since you end up with two styles that have the exact same name, but it happens nonetheless (see screenshot).

    In order to avoid this, you have to go into Style Mappings and re-select all instances of [Basic Paragraph] manually. Notably, when you open the Style Mappings window, the mappings all look correct, but when you click on [Basic Paragraph], the dropdown menu doesn’t open like it does normally – the text “[Basic Paragraph]” just disappears and the selection field becomes empty. You then have to click a second time for the dropdown menu to open.

    This bug has been present for several years (unsure how long). It is present in both Windows and Mac versions of InDesign.

    Steps to Reproduce:
    1. Create a Word document and type some text in any paragraph style (the default “Normal” will do)
    2. Create an InDesign document and place the Word file; make sure “Show Import Options” is selected
    3. In the Microsoft Word Import Options window, select “Customise Style Import” and click on “Style Mapping”, then map the style used in the Word document to [Basic Paragraph]; click OK twice and click somewhere in the document to import the text
    4. Place the Word file again in the same way, using the cached Style Mappings which InDesign automatically remembers without changing anything (you can even deselect “Show Import Options” and skip that part entirely)

    Actual Result:
    After the second import, your document has two paragraph styles, both named “[Basic Paragraph]”, see screenshot. One is the built-in default style; the other is an erroneously created doublet and has the little ‘arrow-into-a-box’ icon to show that it is an imported/auto-created style. The text imported the first time is styled with the built-in [Basic Paragraph] style; the text imported the second time is styled with the imported ‘parasitic’ [Basic Paragraph] style.

    Expected Result:
    After the second import, there is only one paragraph style in the document, the built-in [Basic Paragraph] style. All the text in the document, both that imported in the first import and that imported in the second import, is styled with this built-in [Basic Paragraph].

    Any Workarounds:
    Every time you place a Word file, always enter the Style Mapping window and manually reselect [Basic Paragraph] from the dropdown menu for all styles that map to this style. Alternatively, after importing the file, delete the ‘fake’ [Basic Paragraph] style and when asked what to do with the text, select the real [Basic Paragraph] style to replace it.

    When you place (import) a Word document into InDesign, you can choose to use Style Mapping to map the paragraph and character styles in Word to their equivalents in your InDesign document. When you use this feature for the first time in a document, the mappings get stored somewhere and are remembered for any subsequent imports you perform in the same document; you can also choose to save your import settings, including Style Mappings, as a preset to use freely in any document.

    If you map any Word styles to the default [Basic Paragraph] style in InDesign, it works as… more

13. Type 1 error when opening InDesign file not reflected in Find/Replace Fonts window

    I now regularly get a pop-up blue box error message regarding Type 1 fonts in the files I'm working in. Example: "Your document contains 6 Type 1 fonts." However, if I open Find/Replace Font dialoge, the summary at top of window says "Type 1 fonts : 0". That error message is annoying AND incorrect -- unless the Find/Replace Fonts window is incorrect. Can these be updated to align their messages?
    I'm using InDesign v.17.0.1. on Windows 10 Enterprise

15. Display bug – garbled font randomly show up

    Font display bug – garbled font weirdness

    InDesign 16.4 on macOS Big Sur 11.5.1

    When flipping through pages I get this strange font display issue. See screenshots.
    It happens randomly. Not on every page but at least once every 10 pages.

    I can simply turn preview on and off or go to the next page and back to make the page behove normally again but this should not be necessary.

    This happens with all fonts.
    This happens every day.
    This happens on my colleagues computers as well. They are running various versions of indesign of various version of MacOS.
    This has been happening in at least the last three or four versions of InDesign.

    And, yes, we have tried resetting preferences, restarting, reinstalling, etc

    Any explanation for this stange behaviour?

19. Error when exporting to Rich Text Format (*.rtf)

    When converting Endnotes to Footnotes all text attributes (bold, italic, etc) that exist in the notes will be lost.
    If the attribute is placed in the note via a character style, for example a character style that only puts italics, the italic will be preserved but as text exported to .rtf will be used for a web post, the character style it will not be recognized and the italics will eventually be lost.
    It should be possible to export Endnotes to .rtf and also converting Endnotes to Footnotes should not lose the text attributes that are in the note.
