3 types of consistent crashes during past 3 months
Using version 14.0.2 x64 under Windows 10.
Working on a 356-page book. Three types of crashes occur consistently:
1 - When I export to PDF.
2 - When I add pages, usually in increments of 10.
3 - When I switch between single-page layout and 2-page spread layout.After every crash, when I go to open the file, inDesign offers to auto recover the file. When I say yes, InDesign warns me that the file might be corrupt. I always open anyway. After 3 months working on this book, I can't afford to start over, so I hope for the…

Indesign CC2018 crashes on Cmd-V
I'm working on my masters and using a Split Window to copy and paste text from the same document into a list of references. Cmd-V crashes Indesign. With no warning, or hang, it literally shows me the desktop, no save, nothing. Thankfully auto recover sorts it out, but this is something Adobe needs to look at. I can't tell if there is anything special about the text other than it was a web link and had a paragraph style.
