1. [ID-4257184]InDesign 2025(v20.0) Performance issues: Delay or beach balls on basic operations

   Problem: 

   InDesign Performance issues: Delay or beach balls observed on basic operations on Macintosh

   Steps to Reproduce:

   • We have reproduced one scenario in which the existence of the Documents Font Folder and Contextual Task bar results in some slowness.
   • Other workflows causing slowness are being investigated - No reliable reproducible steps

   Impacted workflows:

   • Switching to InDesign
   • Open/Closing of Document
   • Edit/Scroll/Copy-paste/Highlight operation on Text
   • Text disappears, illustrations disappear
   • Imported or added text turns black until a style is applied.
   • Font menu highlight not following my mouse movement
   • Text will not change fonts until I click the mouse inside or outside the text box.
   • Resize a document window, the corner flies below the screen border
   • Click or Drag of the mouse
   • Switching between tools
   • "Waiting for UXP plugins to finish up remaining tasks."

   Workaround:

   • Disable Contextual Task Bar or remove Documents Font Folder
   • Close the MAGNET application
   • Revert to InDesign 19.5, No performance lag is observed.
   • Restarting the machine and trashing the preferences seems to resolve the issue temporarily
   • Disabling any font manager software seems to resolve the issue. One customer confirmed that disabling "Rightfont" resolved the issue.
   • Uninstall-Reinstall seems to resolve the issue temporarily
   • Turn off Preflight seems to resolve the issue temporarily

   Note:

   1. The issue seems to be specific to the MAC platform only. Impacted macOS (Sequoia, Sonoma, Ventura(maybe), Monterey)
   2. The issue seems to be specific to the MAC devices
      • Apple MacBook Pro M1/M2/M3
      • Apple MacBook Air M1/M2/M3
      • Apple Max Studio M1/M2/M3
      • Apple Mac mini M1/i7 Intel
   3. The issue exists for both old and new documents

   Additional information needed:

   1. Are you opening the indd documents from the folder containing the Documents Font Folder?
   2. Is the "Contextual Task bar" shown? If yes, Disable it from "Window->Contextual Task bar"
   3. Screenshot of Memory usage while the issue is observed
   4. Please follow the below steps for InDesign 20.0.1.32 and InDesign PR 20.1.066 on Macintosh
      • Open Terminal in full-screen mode
      • Drag the InDesign application on the terminal (e.g. "/Applications/Adobe\ InDesign\ 2025/Adobe\ InDesign\ 2025.app/Contents/MacOS/Adobe\ InDesign\ 2025")
      • Copy the logs when you start facing the slowness in a text(.txt) file. Share the file with us at sharewithID@adobe.com.

2. [ID-4253441]"Don't Save" and "Cancel" Positions are reversed in InDesign 20.0

   "Don't Save" and "Cancel" Positions are reversed in Indesign 20.0.

   Why in the world would they do this??? Yet another meaningless update to hinder production.

   Not OS related, as I have not updated my OS since updating to Indesign 20.

3. [ID-4259367]Error handling dialog shown while placing some TIFF/EPS files

   Error encountered while reading TIFF image. Image may be damaged or incompatible. Resave the image with different settings and try again.

   After I upgraded InDesign 19.5.1 to 19.5.2. Linked images do not show on the page in high quality display settings. I have about 60 linked indesign files into my one file. And I was afraid to upgrade to 20.1 and from Sonoma to Sequoia. Any fixes for this? Perhaps get rid of some of the links.. too many links? 60? 2 page document. Newer M2 MacBook Air.

   Edit: Update: Downgraded back to 19.5.1. Everything is working perfectly. Thanks Adobe for allowing very easy downgrades. EXCELLENT.

   The fix of the issue is now available in the latest InDesign 2024(v19.5.3.144). We recommend you upgrade to the latest version for the fix.

   If you are unable to see the update, go to the Creative Cloud application click on the context menu on the top right, and click on Check for App Updates.

4. Moves with arrow keys do not apply to objects if cursor is hovering over a link

   1. Place an image or a PDF in an InDesign file
   2. Create a text frame/shape/any object
   3. Select the object you just created with direct select tool (keep it selected)
   4. Move your mouse to hover over the link so that the center circle link highlight shows. Do not select the linked image, just hover over it.
   5. Press and hold an arrow key to try and move object.

   In CC2024 19.3: If I hover over a link with my mouse, the selected object moves as expected with the arrow keys.

   In CC2025 20.2: If I hover over a link with my mouse, the selected object does not move with the arrow keys. Only when I move my cursor off the link will the selected object move (or jump to catch up to my previous use of the arrow keys)

   This is a very annoying bug as when I'm trying to adjust objects, I'm not consciously picking where I "park" my mouse in my layout as I adjust objects. This slows down work considerably and might unintentionally create errors.

5. Lag in 20.0 and higher

   The lag in 20.0 and its updates is hard to stomach. We pay a lot for this app and it is VERY difficult to work with these issues. Evey time I click on something in a document - no matter how large a file - there is lag. Text boxes, images, color shapes/boxes. I have a brand new Mac Studio with Apple M2 Ultra and 128GB Memory - I have more than enough power to support your app. PLEASE FIX THIS ISSUE. I have tried all of the troubleshooting offered to no avail, and I shouldn't have to trouble shoot to make it function properly.

6. [ID-4257731]No Redraws on Object Highlight

   Prerequisites

   • macOS version only
   • version 18 (2023) and later
   • Screen Mode: Normal
   • GPU Performance OFF (CPU Preview)

   This issue occurs 100% of the time under these conditions. Note that Overprint Preview forces CPU Preview, causing the issue even in Overprint Preview mode with GPU Performance ON. It persists across macOS versions and Intel/Apple Silicon platforms.

   Steps to Reproduce

   1. Prepare an InDesign document with multiple pages.
   2. Place any object on the page.
   3. Switch to the Text tool.
   4. Hover the mouse over the object (MouseEnter), without selecting it.
   5. Press the Cmd key while the mouse is over the object.
   6. The object is highlighted.
   7. Select the menu item "Layout > Next Page."

   The document should navigate to the next page, but it doesn't. Although the scrollbar or page panel indicates navigation, the display remains frozen without redrawing.

   Furthermore, even when the mouse is moved away from the object (MouseExit), the object remains highlighted and can be challenging to unhighlight.

   This feature, highlighting objects using "Text tool + Cmd key + MouseEnter," has been present in InDesign since its early versions. However, this issue surfaced in version 18 (2023) specifically when using CPU Preview, despite no problems in version 17 (2022).

   ---

   There are similar issues with other functions.

   Steps to Reproduce

   In addition to the prerequisites mentioned above, turn on "Highlight Object Under Selection Tool" in "Preferences > Interface." Then, highlight an object with the Selection Tool and press the keyboard shortcut for "Layout > Next Page" (shift+page down).

   The document should move to the next page, but it does not. Similarity to the above bug.

   "Highlight Object Under Selection Tool" is a feature introduced in CS5.5. Turning this off can prevent the issue from occurring.

   However, even when this is turned off, the object highlight with "Text Tool + Cmd Key + MouseEnter" does not turn off. It might be a completely separate function. To avoid confusion, I explained these two separately.

   Prerequisites

   • macOS version only
   • version 18 (2023) and later
   • Screen Mode: Normal
   • GPU Performance OFF (CPU Preview)

   This issue occurs 100% of the time under these conditions. Note that Overprint Preview forces CPU Preview, causing the issue even in Overprint Preview mode with GPU Performance ON. It persists across macOS versions and Intel/Apple Silicon platforms.

   Steps to Reproduce

   1. Prepare an InDesign document with multiple pages.
   2. Place any object on the page.
   3. Switch to the Text tool.
   4. Hover the mouse over the object (MouseEnter), without selecting it.
   5. Press the Cmd key while the mouse is over the object.
   6. The object is… more

7. [ID-4263189][CPU Mode][MAC]Selection of objects does not register immediately

   I am trying to use the new 2025 version of InDesign - but it is really unusable. Running latest version (20.3) on Macos (15.4). Mac Studio with M2 Max CPU and 32 GB memory.

   One major issue I am having is that when I select a text box, it will actually not select the box until I move the mouse again. I click the box and nothing happens. When I start moving the mouse - it suddenly gets selected. If I do not move the mouse - nothing is selected - until I move the mouse. This makes it impossible to use.

   I've seen some tip on Document Font folder or Contextual Task Bar or Magnet app - but none of those are relevant for me.

   InDesign 2024 version works fine and it does not have these issues.

   I did a test on my Macbook Pro (Apple Silicon) - and no issue there - even using the same mouse as on the Mac Studio.

   I see some posts that Adobe has fixed InDesign with latest update - but that is definitely not correct...

   I uploaded a video to YouTube showing the issue. In the video one can see the pointer icon changing to the selection symbol when I actually click, but as you can see, the text box is not actually selected until I move the pointer.

   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=erPZA0_w7gM

   Workaround:
   - Switch to GPU mode
   - Downgrade InDesign to v20.0.1.032

8. Can't open or place files from Windows Explorer

   Updated to most recent version of InDesign (Beta) and Photoshop (Beta), and still can't open files by double-clicking in Windows Explorer. I also cannot drag-and-drop files from Explorer to either Adobe program. If I have a document open in InDesign, I can't drag-and-drop to place. The ONLY way I can open files in either InDesign or Photoshop is to use Open from the file menu. This is VERY annoying and time consuming.

9. [macOS Sonoma]White Screen on drawing marquee/highlighting text in CPU and Overprint Preview modes

   Hi,

   Since I've updated my mac mini to Sonoma, when I use InDesign, the documents flash every time I click on it. If I click and hold, the screen become completely white. This is very annoying, almost impossible to work.

11. Error in cursor position when dragging items

    Hello, InDesign is not letting me move objects (or any items at all) correctly. As soon as I click and drag anything, the position drasticaly changes to about 50px upper-right. Beyond annoying, this is getting in the way of my work. Besides moving objects on the page, I can't drag and drop between layers, or reorder pages easily. It does not happen when selecting text or dragging to create new objects.

    Anyone know how to correct this? It started last week, out of the blue. I have read some similar issues on the forum, from Mac users, but I'm running on Windows 11, INDD version 19.5 x64. Have already restored the preferences, will try reinstalling the program.

12. pdf to indd conversion has no opt out

    INDD version 20.3
    Mac OS 15.4.1
    Hardware: M1 Pro 32GB RAM

    The beta feature that allows InDesign to convert PDFs does not belong in the core application. I've accidentally clicked on a PDF once or twice when trying to open my INDD doc and it takes forever for this thing to do the unwanted conversion. The cancel button does not work. I suspect it's communicating with the cloud to perform this operation, so the question is: Why is it built into Indesign? Can it not be placed in Express or Creative Cloud or somewhere else where it doesn't disrupt a person's workflow?

    If a feature like this is going to be rolled out to all users of InDesign, regardless of their needs and wants, it should at least be easy to opt out. I'm not a UI expert, but my suggestion would be to add a menu item to the drop down in the Open dialog that lets users designate that only INDD files should be opened from there. That may not be the best suggestion, but the point is: always consider how annoying it can be to use software, and, when your designing new features, make sure you're not introducing another layer of annoyance to professionals who are just trying to get their work done.

13. InDesign 2025 / v20.0: »background task« tries to activate font all the time

    Working with the font Minion Pro InDesign 2025 wants to activate the font in the background (shown in the background tasks panel) although it IS activated.

    Closing the document does not bother InDesign. It still wants to activate the font (see screenshot 2).

    Quit & Restart helps, but it should work correctly without it.

14. Persistent Cursor and Functionality Issues in Adobe InDesign After macOS Sequoia 15.1.1 Update

    Description of the Issue:

    I’m experiencing multiple issues with Adobe InDesign across different versions (including the latest and earlier releases) after updating to macOS Sequoia 15.1.1. These problems occur consistently across various files and significantly disrupt workflow.

    Issues encountered:

    Unable to apply colors from the swatch palette – clicking on a swatch does not work for either text or objects.
    Styles (both text and object) cannot be applied by clicking; I must use right-click and "Apply Style" instead.
    Frames on the page shift a few millimeters upon clicking, seemingly on their own.
    Stroke color for objects cannot be selected or modified.
    The selection tool lags and causes objects to move slightly to the left when selected.
    Fonts cannot be changed from the toolbar – clicking the dropdown does nothing.
    These issues are highly disruptive and make it impossible to work efficiently. No other changes have been made to my system aside from the macOS update, so I suspect it is the root cause of the problems.

    I would appreciate guidance on resolving these issues as soon as possible.

    Description of the Issue:

    I’m experiencing multiple issues with Adobe InDesign across different versions (including the latest and earlier releases) after updating to macOS Sequoia 15.1.1. These problems occur consistently across various files and significantly disrupt workflow.

    Issues encountered:

    Unable to apply colors from the swatch palette – clicking on a swatch does not work for either text or objects.
    Styles (both text and object) cannot be applied by clicking; I must use right-click and "Apply Style" instead.
    Frames on the page shift a few millimeters upon clicking, seemingly on their own.
    Stroke color for objects cannot be selected or… more

15. History Window

    Using the hotkeys Command > Z to undo constantly brings up a tour of the History window. Don't want to use it or I would already and am really over it telling me to. Please how do I stop the prompt?

16. Unable to Move Objects

    After selecting and trying to move any object or text frame, the selected object will jump to the left and down from the cursor; making the usage of InDesign extremely difficult.

17. History panel erases undo option and history steps (behavior different from previous version) and

    The history panel seems to be limited to 5 actions. Additionally, with the latest update (20.2), if you access the history panel at all, it overtakes the Ctrl+Z / Ctrl+Shift+Z function for undo/redo as it has worked in the past.

    When the history panel is opened, it selects the most recent action. Even if the panel is closed, whatever is done after this point erases all the other actions, so that you are left with "open" as the previous step. Edit>Undo (Ctrl+Z) is disabled, and you can no longer undo work.

    Additionally, steps will sometimes combine themselves without any user action. (i.e. while documenting this, in between image 3-4 no action was taken except to switch between InDesign and the screen capture program). Switching in/out of InDesign erases the ability to undo work.

    If you type 6-7 characters, you can no longer undo anything prior to that. Open the history window, select a step, then place something.... undo is now limited to the place action; all other history steps are erased (as well as Ctrl+Z undo/redo steps).

    This is a huge step in the wrong direction.

    There are seemingly no settings related to history (unlike in Photoshop where a number of steps can be preserved). Iteration/layout experimentation is critical in InDesign and this update removes the ability to do that without incessantly creating a snapshot every time you do something or type more than a few characters.

19. Invisible toolbox

    When opening an existing file (by clicking on the file before opening Indesign), the toolbox on the left appears as an invisible rectangle. It only works properly if the file is closed and reopened from InDesign.

20. Stop screwing with my workspace settings

    How about app settings like Preferences and Workspace Settings live in the CC profile and it just lives in the cloud? Because you guys can't seem to do the "Retain current settings" thing ever, you have the option and the option never works. Not ONCE, ever.

    NOBODY WANTS THE ESSENTIALS WORKSPACE.
