Digits after spaces appear out of order
InDesign CC 2017.1
I had previously used Arabic support, and this may be contributing to the problem, even after changing Preferences back to "English (North America)" the problem persists.Create text box. Type any digit, then a space, then any digit.
Digits should appear left to right.
The digit after the space jumps to the left of the first digit and includes a space after. Cursoring with arrow keys through the type makes the cursor position jump around, so the misplaced digit is still reading as after sequentially, but is now to the left of the previous digits (really screwy!).

An Orginalposition einfügen
Seid Adobe InDesign 2018 tritt folgendes Problem auf.
Ich öffne ein mehrseitiges Dokument und kopiere eine Doppelseite - mit "apple + c" in die Zwischenablage. Anschließen erstelle ich ein neues Dokument (DIN A4, 2 Seiten) und füge den Inhalt der Zwischenablage über "An Orginalposition einfügen" ein. Nun werden verschieden Textboxen nicht mehr richtig angezeigt. So werden z.B. Texte die über "Textrahmenoptionen" "zentriert" ausgerichtet waren nicht mehr richtig angezeigt. Sie erscheinen nun wie einfach obenlinks ausgerichteter Text. Zur besseren Veranschaulichung habe ich zwei Sreenshots angefügt.1 voteWe have released an update for InDesign CC2019 (v 14.0.1) which contains fixes for some key issues.

missing scripts after installation ID CC13.0/ID2018 Windows
Startup scripts are no longer running after installation. The Scripts folder is empty.
Indesign copies the folder from version 12 and creates the folder C:\Users<user>\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\InDesign\Version 13.0\de_DE
But Indesign-scripts now are saved in C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe InDesign CC 2018\Scripts
So you have to copy the script folders by yourself.1 voteHi,
Thanks for reporting this issue. Just wanted to confirm few things:
1) Was there some scripts present in folder C:\Users\\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\InDesign\Version 12.0\de_DE and these are not copied to 13.0 folder?
2) Is your problem just limited to folder movement or you are facing the issue that your startup scripts are not running?Please provide more detail about the issue. Also, It would be useful if you can provide steps to reproduce the issue.

Mistakenly copying layer name instead of layer content

Can you please look at the separations plate and let us know the color values.
You just have to follow simple steps:
1. Launch your InDesign
2. Create an object say rectangle and fill your color
3. Go to Window→Output→Separations Preview
4. Select the drop down of View to Separations
5. Hover over your object. The separations will show you how much % of which color component comprises the color.Also, let me know the Platform and OS version that you are working on.
A short video showing the issue will be very helpful.
You can directly reach me out at sakverma@adobe.comThanks,

conflict of making your document smaller than your margins
InDesign CC 2019 v. 14
The New ”New document” dialog box doesn't give any warning of the conflict of making your document smaller than your margins allow. It just changes the width and/or height back to what it was as a default if your margins are too large and does not warn the user about it.
And if the user fails to notice that the size switches back, it will create a document that’s not the size intended. User may not even realize what is it that went wrong.
In the Legacy New Document dialog box, when you click OK,…
1 voteInDesign is trying to be helpful here by intelligently reverting to the last good value in the New Document dialog since it’s not possible to create a new document with the values entered by you.
We hope you find this useful.

no break is not working 100%
InDesign CC 14.0 no break is not working all the time. Trying to keep web address together and have no break applied but the text is still splitting even though it can fit a single line of the text box. If I change width of text box the spaces get compressed and almost looks like there is no space between words.

InDesign Enlarges New Assets larger than their Bounding Box
Since the new update, every time I drag an image or logo, etc. into Indesign and drag out how large I want the asset to be displayed....
- Indesign places it (after a short delay), but makes the bounding box smaller than the actual asset. So the logo gets partially covered by the bounding box.I'm not using the content aware sizing or anything. The bounding box should exactly match the asset as its being dragged in for the first time. Very frustrating.
1 voteHi Patrick,
We’re sorry to hear that the latest version of InDesign is not behaving as per your expectations.
You said that you are not using Content Aware Sizing. However, could you check once again to see if you have enabled the setting ‘Make Content-Aware Fit the default frame fitting option’ in the Preferences dialog (under General section)?
Also it would be helpful if you can show us a quick demo of the issue and/or share the file (along with the asset).Ravi Kiran

images are missing
When opening v.2018 Indesign files or new v.2019 files, bitmap images are not displayed. Images are shown as gray boxes with an X across the box (see attached). Display settings changes do not remedy the problem.
I have to work in v.2018 until this is fixed.
ID version 14.0
1 voteWhat is the creator application of these Bitmap images? Which file format(s) are you placing in InDesign?
Could you also share a couple of these images as we don’t see a problem with our files?Adobe InDesign team

properties panel
The tutorials all show the properties panel, but it is nowhere to be found. I tried the Windows tab, no dice. It's really annoying.
1 votePlease check once after cleaning InDesign Prefs. Properties panel is available in the default Essentials workspace you see on launching InDesign. It is also available under Window menu.

As for the name shown in the field when you select the ‘Create Separate PDF Files’ option, it is just for display, letting you know how the individual pdf files get named upon export.
