A problem about converting right-to-left text to the newest versionHello, 
 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 fixedI'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… 1 vote

Expected result: Should have RTL buttons just like Indesign 17.x Actual result: Missing RTL buttons. 3 votes

Wonky text on the Home Screen in InDesign OS VenturaThis 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! 1 vote

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. 1 vote

Missing font is not displayed as missingWhen opening the file in InDesign (tested in ID17, ID18.5 and ID 19 Beta) the font is not reported as missing. 
 Nor does it appear as missing under "find/replace font...".
 However, it is highlighted in pink; so ID notices that the font is missing.My expectation is that the missing font will also show up as missing in "Find/Replace font...". 1 vote

variable font bugging out in InDesignI am using General Sans variable font in Indesign which has not stopped working properly after packaging the document and prepping it to print. Some areas of the font are showing as Italics even though they are not and should not be and there is no way to change them. After researching it looks like variable fonts are not ready to be used in all Adobe programs for a seamless process. 2 votes

Position de l'objet et filtre N/BSuper ! 
 Mais il faudrait arriver à développer un outil qui arrive à gérer les plans des objets (arrière-plant et premier plant) un peu comme dans Word ou on a une aide à la position en 3D.
 Il serait bien aussi un outil qui puisse appliquer des filtres photo rapides comme en N/B.
 Bien cordialement.1 vote

System wide “Emoji & Symbols” panel is not workingThe “picker panels” of macOS and Windows are really nice to quickly get an emoji or special character. The keyboard shortcuts for both work system wide. Almost. It works in applications from Adobe on Windows but not on Mac. I do not understand why this is blocked. 1 vote

Need Alternative Launch imagesI do not think the launch images in photoshop, indesign and illustrator are culturally sensitive. They should not include any people especially not raunchy females (as in photoshops blonde superhero type) female. Who needs that in their life? It doesn't help people be happy with their own partner or spouse to have some perfect looking woman staring at them! They should be totally neutral - landscapes, nature, no people please!! I posted this as a feature request too to at least have the option to disable this launch image. Thank you for your consideration on this issue. 15 votes
