indesign crashed
I am currently using Zoho's virtual space.
For the past two weeks, I have been experiencing a problem where Adobe InDesign crashes whenever I attempt to use the "Save As" function. This issue did not occur previously, but it has become a persistent problem. I kindly request assistance in resolving this matter.1 vote -
[ID-4259937][Document Specific] InDesign and InDesign Server go into infinite recompose
The attached IDML file is a minimized test case for an infinite recompose loop. To start the loop, open the document in an InDesign client and select the gray text frame and turn off its text wrap property. To stop the loop, select Undo or close the document.
The test case is taken from a real-world IDS incident where this loop monopolized the IDS process for several minutes until our watchdog killed it.
(Reproduced with Adobe Indesign CC 2025 v20.1.0.71 running on MacBook Pro M3 / macOS 15.2.)

Lower Case with Caps Lock and Shift
In my new install, InDesign24, pressing shift while using caps lock doesn't make the text lower case, despite this working in other programs. Is there a preference or setting in InDesign I'm not aware is clicked to make this function as before?

After IDS install or update calls to preflight() don't work unless you manually edit ExportPreflightReport.jsx
Whenever we install or update InDesign Server we can't call preflight() unless we manually edit the ExportPreflightReport.jsx file found here:
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe InDesign Server 2023\Scripts\PreflightWe've had to do this for every version of IDS we've installed or updated (v15, v18.2.1 and 18.5). We're using Windows Server 2022 in Azure (Win64).
I can't attach jsx or zip files but edits required are described at the bottom of this post: https://community.adobe.com/t5/indesign-discussions/problem-with-save-preflight-report-using-javascript-in-macintosh/td-p/5831477
If we don't make these changes, calls to preflight on IDS don't produce a report. The script (ExportPreflightReport.jsx) works on InDesign Desktop.
It would be great if IDS shipped with…

BUG/FEATURE: No SEARCH feature for indd.adobe.com documents!
Details: I'm viewing a wine list for the restaurant Cafe Juanita in Kirkland, WA (URL below). Your indd.adobe.com viewer does NOT have a search feature. Which would be super useful on this 28 page wine list! In addition, there is no download button, so I cannot download the PDF and search it locally.https://indd.adobe.com/view/cc7d0fe7-32b2-427b-b6a8-7820ff9bf01f

Adobe Indesign server doesn't indicate license issues
An Indesign Server setup was no longer running properly. The soap client could no longer connect to the instances.
However, the Windows Indesign server service was running. There were no errors in the Windows event viewer. Rebooting the service and server had no effect.
Upon manual startup, errors were displayed stating that the license could not be verified. After opening Internet access, everything worked fine again.
THIS SHOULD BE FIXED:
- The Windows event viewer should show license errors
- The Indesign server service should not be running if there are license issues. It should shutdown again. Why is the…2 votes -
