1. 日本語文字を直接ローマ字入力しようとすると、最初の入力が認識されずにアルファベット変換されてしまうことが多い（例：デザインと入力しようとしてdeと入力すると、「ｄ」と「え」にされてしまう。入力しなおすとちゃんと表記される）。とても使いづらいのですぐに直してほしい。

2. email QR Codes don't work with MATMSG formatting

   InDesign 18.1 on Mac OS 13.2.1 Ventura - Data merge for email QR codes specifically doesn't work, and your documentation is frankly non-existent. Using the MATMSG format doesn't produce a working QR with Data Merge, but using HTML format mailto in Plain Text does. I'm sure I'll run into the wrong version VCARD problem soon, too.

   This is consistent using the MATMSG format in a .csv with data Merge. Using the manual entry isn't a workable option due to the quantity of codes being generated.

3. InDesign: Insert authors document's metadata without quotes

   Version
   Adobe InDesign up to 2023.

   Steps to reproduce the issues
   Setting the active document’s metadataPreferences.author with multiple authors, separated by comma or semicolon in a string via extendscript:
   
app.activeDocument.metadataPreferences.author = "Elric Wade; Anne Emu; Sophie Kumpir";


   Expected result
   The authors should be placed into the "Author" metadata field, separated by comma or semicolon.

   Actual result
   The authors are placed into the "Author" metadata field, but all set within double quotes, so they appear to be one author, not multiple authors.

   Test file, screenshot, video or GIF capturing the issue (optional)
   See attached screenshot.

   Please make it possible to add multiple authors (e.g. with not quoting comma or semicolon separated strings, or by letting pass-in an array with names).

4. masterSpread.primaryTextFrame can't be set in jsx

   See: https://community.adobe.com/t5/indesign-discussions/create-primarytextframe/m-p/13362907#M503701

   The primaryTextFrame property under masterSpread doesn't seem to work. If there is an existing PTF on the spread, then mySpread.primaryTextFrame.isValid resolves as true, but it cannot be set to NothingEnum.NOTHING/null, and a non-PTF on the spread cannot be assigned to mySpread.primaryTextFrame.

5. IOS picking up URL in plain Text

   Creating a QR using the "Plain Text" option, to generate a note when scanned. There are a few URL's within the plain text. Android phones are picking up the QR code as intended, opening a note on their phone. However, iPhones are picking up the first URL in the plain text, despite it being 1/3 of the way down the text. It doesn't matter what the URL is. Third party cameras and Android cameras work fine, iOS cameras don't.

6. matchPreviewBackgroundToThemeColor resets pasteboardMargins to [0,0]

   In a script, app.activeDocument.pasteboardPreferences.matchPreviewBackgroundToThemeColor to 1 causes app.activeDocument.pasteboardPreferences.pasteboardMargins to reset to [0,0].

   Furthermore, setting the pasteboardMargins doesn't work after setting app.activeDocument.pasteboardPreferences.matchPreviewBackgroundToThemeColor to 1.

   (While matchPreviewBackgroundToThemeColor is set to 0 everything works fine.)

7. Duplicated AllPageItems collection when nesting Table inside another Table

   1 create new blank document, 1 page, no primary textframe
   2 creatte empty TextFrame,
   3 insert Table [2x2],
   4 insert another Table [2x2] to the 1st table - into 1st cell,
   5 insert another Table [2x2] to the 2nd table - into 1st cell,
   6 now insert image into 3rd table - from step 5 - as InLine object after a space - so the cell is not converted into Graphics cell,
   7 run script:

   var items = app.activeDocument.allPageItems;
   for (var i = 0; i < items.length; i++)
   $.writeln(items[i].toSpecifier());

   Expected result:

   /document[@id=1]//text-frame[@id=246]
   /document[@id=1]//rectangle[@id=286]
   /document[@id=1]//image[@id=282]

   Actual result:

    Expected: I can align pages in the UI via Align panel so I expect I can do the same in scripting.

    If an object style is within a group, it cannot be assigned as the appliedTextObjectStyle in Document.pageItemDefaults. Have not checked whether the same is true for appliedGraphicObjectStyle

14. ScirptUI: in events `app.activate();` doesn’t work on Mac

    Version of Adobe InDesign
    all

    Steps to reproduce the issues
    * Build a ScriptUI palette with a button (or any other element).
    * Give the button a .onClick event with a app.activate; to give the programm’s focus back to InDesign.
    * Try to perform an InDesign shortcut (such as "command f" to show the built-in find dialog or any other you prefer).

    Expected result
    The focus of the programm should be given back to InDesign and the called action in InDesign should be performed (such as showing the find dialog).

    Actual result
    The focus remains on the ScriptUI palette and nothing happens.

    Stated here:
    https://community.adobe.com/t5/indesign-discussions/scriptui-palette-focus-after-clicking-button/td-p/10378801

    I can confirm this (non-)behaviour on Mac.

    Thanks,

16. appliedLanguage property of text-related objects returns language from application, not document

    When I do configuration for a language in a document, such as setting doubleQuotes, this language can be found in the document object's list of languages and has a different id than the language with the same name in the application object's list.

    But when I access text inside the document – regardless what I inspect, paragraph, words, character, textStyleRange – I expect to get the language properties as set in the document, but instead I get those as set in the app.

    I believe this to be a software bug.

    More information as well as a workaround can be found in https://community.adobe.com/t5/indesign-discussions/paragraph-appliedlanguage-seems-to-differ-from-the-actual-applied-language/m-p/12997100#U12991700

19. Convert Footnotes and Endnotes problem and a bonus scripting problem with special characters

    Indesign 17 on MacOs 12.3.1

    Convert Footnotes and Endnotes does not work when the footnotes does not have a footnote number.

    I have an Indesign document with footnotes.
    In each footnote I have removed the footnote number and the following tab character. (~F\t)

    I need these footnotes to be endnotes but this is not possible with the command "Convert Footnotes and Endnotes".

    Without the footnote number in the footnotes the command/script does not recognise the footnotes as being footnotes.

    They are however still footnotes and I can continue working with them as footnotes and also address them via scripting but the command "Convert Footnotes and Endnotes" does not work.

    I can reinsert a footnote number in each of the footnotes manually one by one by going through "Special Characters > Markers > Footnote Number.

    This will make the conversion work but this should not be necessary.

    Now to the bonus problem:

    I figured I could simply iterate the footnotes and insert the footnote number with a simple script. Guess what? Not that simple.

    I can insert everything except for the SpecialCharacters.FOOTNOTE_SYMBOL in the footnotes.
    Looking at the undo menu it appears as if indesign thinks it has inserted something as it says: "Undo Insert Text"
    But nothing was inserted.

    So ... I guess that I have two bugs here.

    Please help.
