1. 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.

3. CMYK Black is shifting to gray upon export after updating InDesign 19.5.2

   I'm working on some files that have tone on tone colors, and last night when I exported my PDF everything was fine. Today I updated my software to version 19.5.2 and suddenly my black is shifting to gray upon export. I've checked output, removed everything from the surrounding artboard, removed all RGB colors from the swatches. When I export PNG everything is as it should be, so this is solely a PDF export issue. All other colors seem to be normal as well, only Black is shifting.

4. Constantly crashes

   InDesign (20.1) is laggy and constantly crashes at the slightest thing.
   Move a box - crashes
   Edit some text - crashes
   Open two documents - crashes

   It's absolutely shocking!

5. Document made in InDesign 2024 no longer loads in InDesign 2025

   InDesign 2025 (v20.0)

   is unable to open a document (a 400 page book in one single file) that I finished a few days before updating InDesign. It was made using version 19.5. I've tried several versions of the book: both the last work file and a finished packaged version on a separate drive. I have also tried opening an older version before the latest changes with no luck.

   There are no error messages. It just starts loading it and then after a while, doesn't anymore. The book doesn't appear in the Open Recent list either even after several attempts and restarts. This is on an iMac Pro 2017.

   Reverting to version 19.5 and the book opens just fine.

   Fortunately the book is already being printed. So I guess I won't get fired. :)

6. Font and color selection is not working

   Hello.
   I am using Indesign 2025 which was automatically updated on my computer on M1 Max MBP with Sequoia 15.1.1.

   When i try to change a swatch color on an object or a paragraph style on text, indesign will not allow me to make my selection. It will register the selection for a brief moment, and then the icon will deselect the option and my request was not taken into account. This bug is very frustrating as it is not allowing me to make any changes needed.
   This is a relatively new bug that was not there in indesign 2024 when i did this last a few weeks/months ago.

7. bug déplacement des objets dans In Design version 20.1

   Je ne peux plus déplacer aucun bloc avec la souris ou le trackpad., qu'ils soient graphic ou texte.

   Ni la fleche noir ni la fleche blanche, seulement avec les fleches du clavier

   J'ai désactivé le "contenu vérouiller ajustement" dans le menu fichier et j'ai réinitaliser les préférences In Design mais cela ne marche pas mieux pour autant.

   J'ai essayer dans Photoshop et je peux déplacer mes objets normalement

9. Title Case Is Not Actually Title Case

   I'm editing book with over 1,000 pages. I am selecting copy, changing case to Title Case, but it just capitalizes first letter in all words. There needs to be another case option. Title case needs to be setup so it makes a "title" of a book so words like "of" are not capitalized. New option can be called First Letter Caps, and Title case can be fixed to address words that should not be capitalized in a title of a book or headline.

   The Old Man and the Sea (Actual Title Case) The Old Man And The Sea(Not Title Case)

   I have been going to a website to copy and paste content so it will generate correct Title Case results. Total waste of time. Please fix this!

10. page layout panel not scolling

    Pages Panel does not scroll to all pages in document, whether in horizontal or layout view. If panel is enlarged and the pages all fit, you can see them. If you shrink the pages to a smaller size (from jumbo to extra large) and they fit in the view panel, you can see them. But if it is a large document (more than 25 or so pages) you cannot scroll far enough to view pages past about 25 in extra large view.
    Fully updated version InDesign 20.3.1. on Mac.
    Every file I open is like this. Most files were created in an older version, but have been converted and saved. I have tried exporting as an idml file, but that does not work.
    In the past, I have used the pages panel set to jumbo pages to see the whole document and rearrange the pages.

11. text won't appear over a pdf or imported image

    when i import an image or a pdf, any text that i try to have over it (such as putting a page number in the corner of the page) disappears. it's not that the text doesn't appear when the imported file isn't there, just that it is disappearing as it goes "beneath" the image or pdf. sending the imported file to back or the text to front does nothing.

    When updating Alt-text on images or the form field descriptions in InDesign 2025 20.0.1 on Mac and exporting to PDF, the Alt-text/descriptions do not reflect the updated text. This requires manual updating of every single image or form field in the PDF or saving as IDML, opening in 2024 and exporting.

17. Replaced text (when using Track Changes) in a table will crash InDesign/InCopy 2024 when switching to text views

    To recreate (See attached images):

    1. Create a simple table in InDesign and add some content to one cell, then activate Track Changes.
    2. Select the content and replace it with new content, then select to switch to "Story Editor".

    What occurs:
    1. InDesign will completely freeze up and needs to be forced to quit.
    2. This will also happen (in the same set up) if you are using InCopy and switch to either "Story" or "Galley" view.

    Comments:
    It seems that this is triggered by the graphics that highlight the removed/new text. If you are not showing the colors in any of the text views then the applications will not crash. This cannot be replicated in any older version of InDesign/InCopy.

    Files:

    2. Step 2.

18. Drawing glitches when placing transparent PNGs in RGB documents on monitors with specific color profiles

    Applicable to Any Version of Mac/InDesign

    When using an EIZO color management monitor with a profile created by ColorNavigator where "Reflect Black Level in Tone Curve" is enabled, placing a transparent PNG into an RGB document causes severe drawing issues, rendering the document almost unusable.

    This issue occurs only when GPU rendering is enabled and does not happen with CPU rendering. Additionally, it does not occur when placing a transparent PNG in a CMYK document.

    Even under the same conditions, this issue does not occur in Photoshop or Illustrator, only in InDesign.

    While creating a profile with "Reflect Black Level in Tone Curve" turned off can avoid this issue, this setting is crucial for accurate proofing in Photoshop, so turning it off is not a viable solution.

    This appears to be a problem with GPU-based rendering in InDesign. I hope this can be fixed.

    特定のカラープロファイルを当てたモニタ上で、RGBドキュメントに透過PNGを貼ると描画が崩れる

    Mac/InDesignのバージョンは問わない

    EIZOカラーマネジメントモニタ上で、ColorNavigatorで「黒レベルを階調特性を反映する」をオンにしたプロファイルを使用しているとき、RGBドキュメント上に透過付きPNGを配置するとドキュメントの描画が操作できないレベルで崩れます。

    これはGPU表示をオンにしていると発生し、CPU表示では起きません。
    またCMYKドキュメントでは、透過PNGを配置しても発生しません。

    同じ条件下でも、PhotoshopやIllustratorでは描画の崩れは発生しません。InDesignのみで発生します。

    「黒レベルを階調特性を反映する」をオフにしたプロファイルを作成すれば発生しませんが、この項目はPhotoshop上での校正表示に影響を与えるため、オフにはできません。

    InDesignのGPUを使った描画に問題があります。修正を希望します。

19. Changing Description in Buttons Does Not Stick

    A description is needed in buttons for accessibility. This works fine if you add the description when you first create the button but if you try to edit the description it does not not stick. The only workaround is to recreate the button from scratch.

20. Buttons on Parent Pages Create Form Field Errors in Acrobat

    Using buttons on parent pages, e.g. for navigation, throws up 'Tagged form fields' errors in Acrobat. These have to be manually tagged as links, which is a nightmare in a large document with multiple buttons per page.

    It's not clear whether all parent pages create this error or whether it's confined to parent pages based on another parent page.
