  1. Type 1 font warning for no reason

    I am getting a warning that my document contains type 1 fonts (10 of them) when they do not (contains 4 OTF fonts).

  2. »Create outlines« of text on a circle path is making weird things

    v 17.0.1
    Intel Mac
    Big Sur

    If you have a longer text written on a circle path and try to »Create Outlines« it fails at one area: The text gets smaller and is kind of turned around.

    This only happens with longer text: Short text seems to work ok.

  3. spelling

    Hi, I just want you to reach out for me to the Developer team and Interface Design team of InDesign. Please tell them, that the spelling function on InDesign should undergo major improvements. It literally sucks. I've been using InDesign since 2007, and the web application, basically any, like Google, deepL, Grammarl, I think even OpenOffice... are much better. So in this matter, InDesign was never the first choice, more like the last.
    -The first major problem it is very counter-intuitive to turn it on and make it work.
    -the second, which describes the bug, I have changed my Spelling…

  5. Share for review - Filters don't work for those who commented

    When I filter by a reviewer, I only get the edits that were posted first by that person. If they commented on someone else's edit, the filter will not pull those up.

  7. Cross-reference doesn't find all instances of a ¶ style

    When I try to insert or edit a cross-reference, InDesign finds only about half the instances with the specified ¶ style, so I can't insert the needed cross-ref.

  8. Can't rename object in 2022

    Same issue like here, but posting this again to get a response to this, because the response below that post is a big joke. The admin assumes that the bug report is too stupid to rename an object. But the gif clearly shows that 1. the admin hat the window arranged differently and 2. in the gif with the bug you see the rename window flickering.

    I did the work adobe should do and tested it a bit.

    The result is different depending on if the windows is floating, docked or expanded. Float and expand works, dock not.

  19. Mozilla firefox not Working

    Several users have reported problems with Mozilla Firefox in Windows 10. Firefox's unanswered error is one of the most common errors associated with this browser. Users report that this is the first time this has happened since Windows Update.
    When Mozilla Firefox stops working, it stops responding to your clicks, keyboard clicks, as if it's doing nothing. Also, the Firefox title bar does not respond, the mouse cursor becomes a spinning wheel on the Firefox window.
    While there are many reasons for this, some common culprits seem to be responsible for the web browser problem.
