2. The character sequence -xx'-x crashes InDesign 2021 (v 16.0) on Mac

   The sequence of letters -xx'-x crashes InDesign 2021 (v 16.0) as soon as you write this sequence yourself, copy or mark a letter from it (e.g. to change the text size) or do a search for this string, in a normal text field.

   To reproduce the issue, simply write -xx'-x into a text field in InDesign 2021 or copy it into the text field. The X'x can be replaced here by other normal letters, upper and lower case doesn't seem to matter. The crash seems not to happen if the last X is a special character like ";" or "! Furthermore, there must be two or more letters before the '-x
   
   The Font-Family also doesn´t play a role here. We tested it with different fonts.

   Since we have a lot of documents with this letter combination, we cannot edit them in Indesign 2021 anymore. On InDesign 2020 it worked without problems.

   Tested with InDesign 2021 (German Version) on different Imacs and Macbooks with macOS Catalina 10.15.6 and Imac with Mojave macOS 10.14.

3. InDesign 2021 crashes when opening some panels

   For example, I select some text and click to open the Hyperlinks panel. ID crashes straight away.

   Or I select an anchored object, right click to select Anchored Object > Options. The panel comes up with 'Inline' selected and then I click on 'Above Line'. It crashes straight away.

   I've had a similar problem working in tables, when I right click to delete a row, it crashes immediately.

   I've had to go back to 2020 to be able to work on some of my documents.

4. InDesign 2020: crashing, undo doesn't work, missing fonts, text wrap is broken, so many bugs

   The Undo bug is back. I tried to undo some text (in a table) and it reverted the document back to the previous save and then crashed.

   On re-opening, ID complains that it can't find my installed fonts that I used in the document. They show up in the document, it just complains that they are not there. These are fonts that I bought and installed, so I know they are available.

   I have also been having problems with text wrap not working half the time. I set a box (I've tried both image and text boxes) to text wrap and nothing will happen. Text still flows under the box. Sometimes it works. Sometimes it suddenly starts working on things that wouldn't text wrap the day before, so there is no way to try to repeat the bug to figure out the trigger.

   Also, the mechanism to convert a 2020 document back to 2019 so I can actually get things done with working software doesn't work, go fig. It crashed when I tried to use it.

5. Indd file crashes when editing, including it into a book or during the book synchronization

   After the Indesign update to the 2020 version I started to have problems with a single file: the program crashes every time I try to edit this file (in particular when I try to modify the content in the middle of the file, at the end of a series of tables), to include it in a book, or to synchronize a book which includes this corrupted file.
   I attach the corrupted file, so you can check
   Is there a solutions?
   Thank you

   We have released InDesign 2021(v16.0.0.77) with a lot of stability fixes. We recommend you upgrade to the latest version (if you’re not already on it) as it is more robust.

   If you still face this issue even after updating, please send the following information to santalwa@adobe.com:

   • Quit InDesign and create a backup of Preference and cache. Relaunch InDesign to observe if the preferences have been reset.
   • Next time when you encounter a crash, create a backup of Preference and cache prior to InDesign launch. If the issue is encountered, send the back up of preference and cache to the above mail ID

7. Extendscript hangs CC2019 (14.0.2) on macOS

   Code below works fine on Windows and CC 2018 on Mac. But CC 2019 Mac it hangs the app once clicking the OK button in window 2. I've tried three different Macs including Mojave and High Sierra. All the same result. Pretty sure it's not just me. This bug has broken a number of my scripts that present a secondary window for saving settings.

   var w1 = new Window("dialog", "Window 1");
   
   var btnOpenWindow2 = w1.add("button", undefined, "Open Window 2");
   
   var btnOk1 = w1.add("button", undefined, "OK");
   
   btnOpenWindow2.onClick = function () {
   
   openWindow2();
   
   };
   
   btnOk1 = function () {
   
   w1.close();
   
   };
   
   w1.show();

   function openWindow2 () {
   
   var w2 = new Window("dialog", "Window 2");
   
   var btnOk2 = w2.add("button", undefined, "OK");
   
   btnOk2.onClick = function () {
   
   w2.close();
   
   };
   
   w2.show();

11. InCopy Assignments Updates Crash InDesign

    I have an InDesign book file housing several InDesign files that are news page documents with InCopy assignments. When I open the .indd files from the .indb file and a story has been updated (update links dialogue) when I click on "update links" InDesign crashes. I've clicked "don't update links" and it doesn't crash. However, when I go to the page that needs updating and I click update in the assignments panel, InDesign crashes.
    This all happened before and after I reset my InDesign preferences.

12. InDesign crashes when mounting/updating another InDesign document with overset text

    InDesign Version: Adobe InDesign CC 13.0.1
    Operating System: macOS High Sierra version 10.13.2
    Computer: MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Mid 2015)

    Steps to reproduce the issue:
    1. Create a new document in InDesign with at least 3 pages.
    2. Make a textbox on one of the pages (e.g. page 1) and fill it with some text.
    3. Resize the textbox so that some text overset and preflight shows 1 error - overflowing text.
    4. Save and close the document
    5. Create a new InDesign document
    6. Place the InDesign file with the overflowing textbox in the new InDesign document (NOTE: You need to place the page which actually has the overflowing text). You should get an error message that the document you want to place is containing overflowing text. Click OK.
    7. Alt+Double Click / Opt+Double Click on the placed document in order to edit it.
    8. Do some edits in the document, e.g. duplicate the textbox with the overflowing text by holding ALT while moving it. Make sure that you still have overset text in the document.
    9. Save the document, and close it by clicking CMD+W or File->Close. This should automatically lead you back to the document where you placed the document, and InDesign should try to automatically update the placed document with the new content.

    Expected result:
    InDesign should update the contents of the placed InDesign document, and not crash, regardless of whether the placed InDesign document contains overset text or not.

    Actual result:
    In my case, InDesign crashes at the end of step 9 when trying to update the placed document containing overset text. I have attached a screenshot, in addition to the crash reports generated by Apple/Adobe at this time. InDesign shows the following error message (translated from Norwegian to English): "Error: Adobe InDesign is exiting. A serious error occured. Restart InDesign to restore work in any InDesign-documents that isn't archived." It also shows a dialog box which warns you about overset text on pages in the placed document.

    Extra notes and comments:
    If InDesign didn't crash in step 9, you can try to go to the "Links" panel and update the link to the placed document, if it didn't update automatically. In general you should also try placing and updating InDesign documents containing overset text into another InDesign document, and this error should occur eventually.

    In my experience InDesign crashes very often due to this error when using a workflow which requires mounting other InDesign documents, which might contain overset text accidentally. In the workflow that we use, this error is very devastating leading to InDesign crashing up to several times per day (or per hour) in certain periods.

    The error most consistently occurs when doing some changes in a document containing overset text, and then updating it in InDesign, as described in the steps to reproduce the error. However, the error has also occured when placing the document, not just while updating it.

    I have also experienced that this error occurs even when there just are some extra lines at the end of the textbox, so that text technically overflows, but no preflight error appears because the overflowing text is just empty lines/paragraphs. This makes the bug extra difficult to avoid, because the overflowing text could be in any textbox in the document, even though no error is showed.

    This error has occured consistently over several InDesign and OS versions, at least for several years, probably since the feature to place another InDesign document was introduced.

    InDesign Version: Adobe InDesign CC 13.0.1
    Operating System: macOS High Sierra version 10.13.2
    Computer: MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Mid 2015)

    Steps to reproduce the issue:
    1. Create a new document in InDesign with at least 3 pages.
    2. Make a textbox on one of the pages (e.g. page 1) and fill it with some text.
    3. Resize the textbox so that some text overset and preflight shows 1 error - overflowing text.
    4. Save and close the document
    5. Create a new InDesign document
    6. Place the InDesign file with the overflowing textbox in the new InDesign document (NOTE: You… more

15. Crash when exporting

    Every time I try to export my document to a PDF InDesign 12.1 crashes. I've quit and restarted the software, and restarted my computer. I have no pending updates. I'm not sure why the program crashes every time I try to export. I've tried to go around the issue by packaging the file, exporting directly to PDF, or getting a PDF from a "print" operation, but nothing seems to work. It crashes every time.

16. Color Picker causes InDesign to Crash

    Every time I try to use the eyedrop Color Picker tool in InDesign it causes InDesign to crash and close. It will not allow me to drag the eyedropper to pick up a color, and if I try to drag the eyedropper it makes the color box freeze to where I cannot click "Ok" or "Cancel" and I need to press the "Esc" button on my keyboard to get out of the color box. Shortly after closing the color box, InDesign will crash and close. I have tried updating InDesign to the newest version, turning on/off my computer multiple times, sending crash reports every time the issue happens, creating a new file in InDesign, closing all other applications. When I look at the activity monitor on my Mac, it says InDesign is using 99%-101% CPU. I have a new (purchased 09/2022) MacBook M1 Pro with 16GB of memory, 500GB Flash Storage (494 GB available) Version 12.6 Monterey.

    1. Adobe InDesign 2023 Version 18.1

    2. Steps to Reproduce this issue: Every time I try to click the eyedropper tool to change the color of either text, a line, or a background box it will cause InDesign to crash. I created a new InDesign file to see if the issue will persist in a separate file and it crashed in the new file as well.

    3. Expected Result: I expect to click and drag the eyedropper tool to a part of a photo that has been placed in InDesign to capture the color to use for either text, a line, or a box.

    4. Actual Results: The color box freezes to where I cannot click "Ok" or "Cancel", then InDesign will crash and close on its own and ask if I want to send a crash report. I always say yes to sending a crash report.

17. InDesign 2023 crashes when opening older InDesign files

    Can't open older version files in InDesign 2023. Using Microsoft Office 2016 64-Bit Edition (yes, I know we're really behind in our operating system). It looks like it's going to open the file, and then it crashes InDesign. Have tried restarting, re-installing InDesign and no go. Have even tried saving the old file as an IDML mark-up file and it still won't open.

18. InDesign 2023 crashing when using links panel

    Though it rights itself occasionally, this happens only when I use the links panel. I am having to cmd-D to import, but that is adding lots of time I don't have.

    Restarts of both InDesign and my latest model MacBook Pro are not fixing this.

    What can I do?

19. 17.0.1 crashes adding links

    Every time I try to add or change a link in the links panel, InDesign crashes.

    I restart InDesign and it tells my my file might be damaged. Do I still want to open it.

    I open it. All seems ok. Try to change a link again, and InDesign crashes.

    This is so frustrating!!

20. Export Jpeg to nas, finder crash

    I have a MacbookPro under macOs BigSur version 11.4 with an Apple M1 chip, the version of Indesign is 16.3.2, when I export one of my files either locally or on the network nas, in the JPEG format to the NAS and I want to open the Finder to see if the file is saved, as soon as I click on it without opening it, the Finder no longer responds and the same for Indesign, which forces me to close Indesign so that the Finder will work again, is there a compatibility problem since there is still no version of Indesign for Apple Silicon processors?
    I have already been with an adobe technician who took the hand on my post, he told me to do a post here, thanks
