Workspace disappear when opening some files
I am currently on the latest version of ID (17.1) on a PC. I noticed that on a number of occasions, when double clicking an ID file (while ID is initially closed) it launches to a screen without any panels. Only the top menu is available. Checking the Workspaces options, it shows that non of the workspaces is chosen. Only when selecting any workspace that panels appear.
Not sure if this is a bug or if I am missing a particular setting that would have it default to a particular workspace.
Any assistance will be very much appreciated.3 votes -

European characters recognized as Kanjis in composite fonts
I'm editing a Chinese document containing certain European characters such as ē and í.
I've created a composite font that uses Roboto for numbers and latin alphabets, and Noto Sans CJK for the Chinese characters.Recently I noticed some of the European characters are incorrectly recognized as Kanjis, and are set to Noto Sans CJK instead of Roboto.
By testing my composite font settings, I confirmed that these misbehaving characters are being recognized as Kanjis (the top row in the composite font window).

Paragraph Borders appearing incorrectly between paragraphs at top/bottom of page
InDesign 17.3 (2022) running on an Apple M1 chip
When several adjacent paragraphs have the same border settings, the treatment of borders at the top/bottom of the page vary depending on whether the pages break BETWEEN paragraphs, or WITHIN paragraphs. They should function the same.
In the attached screenshot, query-bordersappearing.png is incorrect (ACTUAL RESULT).
The rules should disappear as seen in query-bordersnotappearing.png (EXPECTED RESULT, even if the page break falls between paragraphs).
The only difference between the two screenshots is I pulled up the bottom of the box on the left-hand page to force the text to break within a…

Share for Review Unreliable
I love the share for review function, however it is proving too unreliable to be used in a professional setting.
Here are the issues that my team and I encountered on a regular basis:
Review comment window is blank Updating sharing link freezes program Review page in browser won't load (spinning circle of death) Document in browser glitches and jumps around when trying to navigateThese are pretty serious issues that need to be resolved. I like the innovation, but in order to make it part of our process, reliability is the most important aspect.

Having issues updating files which are published online.
Hi there, I am having problems trying to amend (override) an already 'published online' indesign file. I really liked the capability of this function as it means that other sites where my file is embedded, do not need to be updated and I can go directly to the source without the html link changing.

InDesign 17.1 not working properly
InDesign (17.1) is acting very strange for the last two months. When I click on File, Edit, View or any other topic, the tab does not open. I cannot access any action under those tabs. Also, when I eventually get to work with my document, it is extremely slow to save. It turns, and turns forever. I've been working with InDesign for over 20 years and it's the first time I have so much trouble with the software. How can that be fixed?
3 votesCan you try the following and see if it solves your issue:
- Quit InDesign.
- Delete the following:

Bug: Table/cell styles don't define cell height and character format
Indesign CC 2020, v17.1
The dialog to create a new cell style doesn't have a definition for the cell height (value "At least" / "Exactly") like we find it in the table properties panel. Table styles also don't define cell height and that is all we can use. If you adjust the cell height manually and redefine the cell style, it's also not submitted. So there is no chance to format an entire table just by selecting a table style.
Next is characters. If there is supposed to be text in a table, that text gotta have a style. Since…

An error icon for Background Tasks Circle progress element.
Try to include one Caution or Exclamation Icon near to the circle progress bar to understand it is not progressing but stuck with error.
Otherwise users get confused with that the process is going on, and wasting too much time. Presently it is shown only on the Background Task window.

[ID-4259941] Find/Change Text dialog does not show all Search options.
after making a selection, the Find/Change text dialog sometimes does not offer Selection in the Search dropdown. It will be present under GREP and Object, but not Text and Glyph. Closing/reopening Find/Change does not fix it. Restarting InDesign usually fixes it...until it goes missing again.

M1
I have issues with basic tasks in InDesign. I ordered a new MacBook Pro 16, M11 Pro, 16GB Ram, 1TB SSD
And just scrolling around in InDesign gave me the rolling spin.After updating to the newest indd Version and newest MacOs Version it did get better with small files, and moving a textbox worked finally.
But working with a bigger magazine file with 50 pages is not doable.I ordered a second m1 pro (same config) as thinking it might be a Hardware Issue. Same result.
I made a clean wipe of MacOs, only installed CC and Indd (and…3 votes -
keyboard shortcut
Hello. keyboard shortcut do not work. I think it is due to the fact that the default set is devoted to windows and not to OS.
Can you produce a Default ME.txt devoted to OS 12.1 ?

All adobe apps temporarily freeze when another adobe app is saving.
I've noticed this since the last update. When InDesign is saving, all other Adobe apps temporarily freeze until InDesign completes saving. Not a problem most of the time for quick saving documents, but for larger projects like catalogs, I can be stuck for 5-10 minutes until INDD completes saving.

idml letter spacing
Hi Team ID,
We love the IDML export because we can send that to our translation office and get close to final-artwork-files back. But we realized paragraph and character styles which include letter spacing values do not have letter spacing any more after export. Can you fix this please?Thank you

In tagged PDF, selecting a tag highlights multiple paragraphs - Indesign/Acrobat Bug
In an Indesign document, suppose a hyperlink exists in a line with shift-enter at the end of that line. In tagged PDF, the <p> tag of a paragraph that has hyperlink with shift-enter, highlights including the content of the next paragraph and leaving the tag of that next para empty.
The same issue will not occur when we remove the shift-enter in that line and export the Tagged PDF.
The hyperlink may be in single or multi-line.
Attached sample PDF file and screenshots.

Publish Online - Hyperlink download lässt sich in Chrome nicht öffnen
Hallo,
hier wurde eine Diskussion zum Thema Publish Online und einem möglichen Bug geführt: https://community.adobe.com/t5/indesign-discussions/indesign-interaktiv-hyperlinks/m-p/13042834Es geht darum, dass integrierte Download Hyperlinks in Publish Online in Chrome und Edge nicht richtig gedownloaded werden können.
Die Downloadlinks an sich funktionieren (z.B. in Firefox) in Chrome und Edge öffnet sich leider nur ein leerer Tab und kein Download beginnt.
https://indd.adobe.com/view/eff43047-dc7b-4048-ade4-369cfe76592aKönnt ihr das einmal nachvollziehen und eventuell beheben?
Vielen Dank & Grüße
