Version 19.0 does not remember the document path for Save or Exporting to PDF
Since upgrading to v19, it does not default to the path of the original opened document when saving, and Export to a PDF file does not default to the directory of the InDesign document.
The default is you Documents folder.
This is not the first time an upgrade has caused this behavior.
PLEASE fix this !2 votesWhen we update from InDesign 18.5 to InDesign 19.0, the conversion of documents happen. The document is opened and the user needs to save it. We have to save the document and the same folder from where 18.5 document is opened will be seen. For export workflow without saving the document, export will point to Documents folder.

Problem with Variable fonts - some glyphs are displayed with a lighter weight on changing axes.
Some variable fonts works as expected, but for some, the font displays at a lighter weight (perhaps regular?) when the weight is set for anything heavier than about 750. It appears that the heavier weight's metrics are used.
In my my limited test, the weight prints properly.
I'm on a 27-inch, iMac 2020, Mac OS 13.5.1, InD 19.

Variable Font (Source Sans 3) some Characters not available
macOS Ventura 13.5.2 (22G91), InDesign 19.0
Since the update to Indesign 2024 (or version 19.0), some letters can no longer be selected in bold or black for the variable version of the font "Source Sans 3". When adjusting the slider, they become thinner again (instead of thicker) from a weight of 600. It affects e.g. the small a, e and l, but not the i, s... etc. they are also not displayed in the glyphs. With font weights below 600 (up to and including semibold) everything works fine (variable and with font weights). This applies to both the TT-version (download)…5 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.

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.

Missing font is not displayed as missing
When 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...".

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.

Position de l'objet et filtre N/B
Super !
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 working
The “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.
