[ID-4262670][ERROR(RSC-005) in EPUB Checker]InDesign 20.3 creates target attributes to every link in EPUB
The latest InDesign version (20.3) creates target="_blank" attributes to every link when exported as EPUB. Doesn't matter if the link contains URL or it's a link from a text anchor. The latest EPUB Check version (5.2.1) gives an error with every link that doesn't have href attribute which means every text anchor is invalid.
For example:
<h1 id="_idParaDest-1" class="Header-1"><a id="_idTextAnchor000" target="_blank"></a>Foreword</h1>In EPUB Check this is an error:
ERROR(RSC-005): Error while parsing file: element "a" missing required attribute "href"11 votesFix for this issue is now available in the latest InDesign Release – InDesign 20.4 Release.
Please update to the latest InDesign Release via CCD app to get the fix.

Quiero exportar en publish online me sale Error # 102
Buenas, acabo de descargar creative cloud de escritorio, estoy probando InDesign versión 18.3, por 7 días, pero cuando quiero exportar en publish online me sale Error # 102. No se puede conectar con el servidor. Compruebe su conexión a internet.
Tengo una conexión a internet que es muy rápida y no sé porque me sale ese mensaje de error.
Por otro lado, estoy tratando de enviar este error a Adobe InDesign: Errores, pero no se puede enviar, solo me sale un mensaje que dice: Lo sentimos, no hemos podido enviar tu solicitud.

Publish Online: if forbidden character in the document name, the name has to be filled in again
To me it’s okay that “special characters” are not allowed in the title of a "publish Online" document.
But if a user gets this message, his/her title is completely deleted and he/she has to fill out the title again. Although there’s maybe only one forbidden character in it.
Annoying. Any chance to change this?

links not clickable on publish online link
When I publish my document online, Hyperlinks are not clickable. When the document is viewed as a PDF, links ARE clickable. All text is ungrouped and on the top layer. All hyperlinks are properly embedded (again, they work in the PDF and this is purely an issue with the Publish Online link). Running the latest Indesign 20.2 on Mac Sonoma 14.7

ePub 2.0.1 export creates invalid ePub files
InDesign creates incorrect ePub in latest version (19.5) when exporting reflowable ePub 2.0.1.
This is the result of any ePub generated with InDesign from the Draft2Digital Epub validator:
- ERROR(RSC-005): /OEBPS/content.opf(2,105): Error while parsing file: attribute "xml:lang" not allowed here; expected attribute "id"
The "xml-lang=" attribute should not be removed from the "package" tag, as it is not in the ePub 2.0.1 standard.
- ERROR(RSC-005): /OEBPS/cover.xhtml(8,38): Error while parsing file: element "figure" not allowed anywhere; expected element "address", "blockquote", "del", "div", "dl", "h1", "h2", "h3", "h4", "h5", "h6", "hr", "ins", "noscript", "ns:svg", "ol", "p", "pre", "script", "table" or "ul" (with xmlns:ns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"…

Problems with punctuation when exporting Hebrew files to epub
Using Indesign V.19.5 on a Mac OS Sequoia V15.0.1
When exporting a Hebrew document the punctuations move to the beginning of the sentences. I am unable to upload this book to an online shop. Had been in touch with Adobe support in the past but the issue remains.

interactive rollovers
The Latest version of Indesign (20.0) has some bugs with rollover buttons in the EPUB Interactivity preview.
Some rollover buttons work (buttons with basic changes made in the rollover state ie font/colour).
Some rollover buttons do not work (buttons with different images placed in each rollover state) THE ROLLOVER STATE ALWAYS SHOWS, THE NORMAL STATE NEVER SHOWS.
The 'publish online' documents work fine, this bug ONLY occurs with the EPUB interactivity preview in Indesign.

scrolling text frame
When publishing my file online, a gap appears in the text within the scrolling text frame. (see attachment) The gap seems to be aligned to the place where the text hits the bottom of the container frame. There are no extra characters causing this gap in the text. I had the same issue with a document a year ago, but it looks like this bug is still there.
Version: Indesign 2025
Steps to reproduce issues:
•Paste longer text box into container box.
•Align content to top left.
•Use overlays panel, choose "Scrollable frame," Scroll direction: vertical, Initial content position: Upper…1 vote -
If a user selects 'allow viewers to Search and Copy text in the published document' when publishing online, all the hyperlinks stop working
When publishing online, if a user checks the box, 'allow viewers to Search and Copy text in the published document', all the hyperlinks stop working properly. If you're lucky, a link may work the first time you click it, but then it won't work if you click it again (Latest version of INDD on a Mac).

I have the problem that the export of HTML from InDesign CC24 spits out a completely different structure for the footnotes, now the footnotes are a ordered list, even if the lists are output in text during export.
