1. Boards are not displaying

   All I can see is a grey screen surrounded by my tools and panels, as though I had hidden my pages. My cursor works as normal, identifying objects and texts, and can even select and move them, but nothing is shown. Occasionally a pdf file will be visible as part of a glitch. I have tried updating my Mac, Indesign, and restarting both.

   Version: Adobe InDesign 2022
   Steps: opening any of my files
   Result: empty screen

3. Bug: Page selector not correct after opening next file

   Indesign v17.1, Windows 10
   Problem: when opening a second document while the first currently is on page 22, for example (see screenshot), and then tiling, the 2nd document is shown to be on page 22 as well, though it's not. With the 2nd document being on master page C-Rear EA, the page selector not only shows 22, it also has the checkmark put next to 22 when you open the dropdown.

4. Indesign M1 Beta expired

   The beta suddenly stopped working and won't allow med to access InDesign on the M1 machine, no update on the Creative cloud installer beta section, and removing and reinstalling the app doesn't solve it.

   Will there come a new beta update soon?

5. Preview glitches.

   ID 17.2.1
   Zooming in/out in a document sometimes displays glitches/artifacts that block the view of the actual design.
   Moving the window or dragging the document around the pasteboard fixes the issue; still, it's annoying because it blocks one from working properly.

6. ID 17 English LTR document with any RTL text exports as RTL epub

   I edited this to remove the urgent notice. The publisher does not want to publish this book as an epub.

   The basic problem remains, however.

   When exporting an epub 3.0 from an academic book written in English with some RTL text sections, typically tables with Hebrew and English text, the epub exports in reverse order. That is, the title page is at the end of the epub, and the last page of the text is the first in the epub. So far it seems that the presence of any RTL elements, even a single character, causes the epub to export as if it were an RTL book.

   17.2.1, 17.1 and 17.0.1 all export the same way.

   The reflowable epub export General tab has the Content -> Order set to "Based on Page Layout". That is the only option available.

   To reproduce, export to reflowable epub a book with a few RTL elements. I created a 50 page 6×9 in. lorem ipsum ID document with three Hebrew words in the first sentence; exporting the file as a reflowable epub results in the first page at the end of the file. Even a single RTL character is sufficient to export with the first page at the end of the epub.

   I cannot attach my .indd test file; it should be be easy enough to create one.

   The attached screen snap shows that the epub page ordering is from right to left.

7. Form elements are not exported correctly into PDF and fail Acrobat accessibility checker

   When I try to produce an accessible PDF form from InDesign, all of the form elements fail Acrobat accessibility checker. In my case, I have checkboxes and text fields.

   For example when looking into a check box element in Acrobat, the text label gets a <Section> and a child <P> tag and the actual form element a separate <form> tag (including the OBJR). How can this be?

8. arbeitsbereich erweitert

   Hallo,

   leider habe ich im Indesign CC, aktuelle Version auf Win10 - 64 Bit, immer wieder das Problem dass Indesign beim Neustart bzw. Start einer bestehenden Indesign-Datei keinen Arbeitsbereich lädt.
   Wie kann eine Einstellung treffen dass der Arbeitsbereich (z.B. Erweitert) automatisch mit jedem Start von Indesign oder Öffnen einer bestehenden Indesign Datei geladen wird.

9. Turning a shape into a frame

   It's easy enough to create a frame inside InDesign and drop in an image. I would however like to be able to bring in my own shape already made, turn it into a frame and drop in an image. I reached out to support. They told me I needed to put my png shape into Illustrator for it to work. We tried it together and it still didn't work. We came to the conclusion that this should be a new feature.

11. Bug: Find/replace fonts doesn't work on hidden conditional text

    Version: Indesign 17.x
    Problem: when opening a document that reports a missing fonts, replacing all instance with "Replace all" buttons might not work or not replace all when the text is conditional and currently hidden.
    It's understandable that "Find first" cannot work on hidden text, because that would mean to reveal it, but "Replace" all wouldn't jump to any text part in the document, so it should work.

13. loading TOC-styles between various Indesign-files

    InDesign version 16.4

    When loading a newly created TOC-style from one InDesign-file to an other file, it copies more than just the possible TOC-styles. I loaded the TOC-styles of an InDesign-file with a smaller font and spacing and the load copied these other settings as well.
    It seems that the 'Load TOC-styles' loads all available styles, including Paragraph- and Character-styles.
    The selection-list that is available when loading Paragraph-styles and/or Character-styles is also missing.
    This makes it impossible to load TOC-styles between different InDesign-files which use the same Paragraph-style names.

14. [ID-4208669]QR Code Generator Problems with Special Characters in vCards

    In the actual version of indesign (16.0) there is still an issue with internal generated vCard-QR-Code scanned by an iphone.

    In germany there are special Characters called "Umlaute" (ü, ö, ä) or the "sharp s" (ß). If these characters are used in an vCard generated within the buildin function from indesign, they are replaced with other symbols on the iPhone QR-Code-Camera Reader.

    I think this is only a Problem of the used vCard-Version. I think indesign uses Version 2.1 if you would just use Version 3.0 this issue does not appear.

    please see attached one example

    Kind regards from germany

15. Default underline position misinterprets font’s specification

    InDesign interprets the underline position as the center of the line (from which the "thickness" extends outward), whereas the OpenType spec calls for it to be the top of the line (from which the thickness extends downward). This causes inconsistencies with other application’s interpretation of the same font’s metadata.

    See here:
    https://docs.microsoft.com/de-de/typography/opentype/spec/post#header

    Quote:

    underlinePosition

    This is the suggested distance of the top of the underline from the baseline (negative values indicate below baseline).

    The PostScript definition of this FontInfo dictionary key (the y coordinate of the center of the stroke) is not used for historical reasons. The value of the PostScript key may be calculated by subtracting half the underlineThickness from the value of this field.

16. Dropdown Menu "Type" Text Not Consistent

    Currently using v17.3 and I believe the "Find/Replace Font..." (under "Type" menu bar) should be with initial caps and not what I'm currently seeing. It should be the same style as "Find/Change", right?

    Checked with my fellow InDesign users and seems like it's only me.
    Anybody else has this issue?

    Thanks!

17. Hyperlink panel "go to destination" not linking to html with # to a specific id="anchor-1"

    ID version 17.0

    Hyperlink is to a url containing a # to anchor-1 in an html document. (Fig. 1)

    When clicking the go to destination it should open to that particular id location in the html.

    In the browser the # becomes %23 and the html document does not open, in fact it opens a pdf with a similar url. (Fig. 3)

    Fortunately when creating a pdf the link does work correctly in the browser.

    In v 14.0.1 it would open to the correct place in the html.

19. InDesign Window Moves Slightly Offscreen (So I Can't Adjust Window Size) When Plugged Into External QHD Display

    I'm using a 14" M1 Pro Macbook Pro, and when plugging into an external display (QHD), Indesign's top window moves slightly offscreen (see attached picture). Goes away when I unplug the display, but quite annoying to have to remember to resize the window before plugging it into a display since I can't resize the window another way without that top bar accessible.

20. "Small cap" with some fonts doesn't works

    Version of Indesign: 17.3

    Steps:
    - write a text in Arial (or Bahnschrift, Calibri, Times new roman)
    - select text and activate "Small caps",
    - go to Preference -> Advanced type -> Character setting,
    - Change "Small cap" value to 40% (from 70%),
    - NOTHING CHANGE!

    Do the same with InDesign 15.3.1 and it works.
