Font disappears when size of text is changed
When working in a text box and changing the size of the font, the text disappears altogether. If I change the font to a different one, the text reappears, then change font back to the one I used originally and text disappears again. (For example: changed font from default myriad pro to Ultra--text still showing; changed font size--text disappears; change font to Roboto (or anything else)--text reappears.)
No matter position of text box, size of box, size of font, changing to overprint view, nothing makes the text reappear except changing the font to something else. Font/text is also missing when…2 votes -
Share for Review strikethrough & highlight from online edits aren't visible in InDesign
InDesign Vs. 16 Share for Review: if the reviewer uses the strikethrough text or highlight option, I don't see these in my indesign doc. I can see the strikethrough text on the browser version, but the highlight disppears completely. The review comment is in both places, just not what it's referencing.

ID 2020 15.1 - All text variables (including page numbers) replaced by "ss" text
Just updated to ID 2020 15.1 and found a bug which makes the program unusable forcing me to immediately downgrade.
When I open on of my ID documents created in previous version of ID, all of my defined text variables as well as page numbers are corrupted and replaced by the "ss" text. Changing the style has no effect. I can create page number based on the 'Basic Paragraph' style but when i choose any other previously created style, the number changes to 'ss'.
Even the variable field preview shows 'ss' text instead of variable name.
The same document opens…-

High resolutiom
DEAR ADOBE!
I have a problem with Indesign that can not display images in high-resolution-mode.
All pictures turn black and striped. The problem started after upgrading to Monteray 12.4
I have already been in contact with your support via chat for two hours.
It looked promising, but when they then restarted my computer via remote control,
I lost contact with you and have not been able to give feedback since.
I am VERY disappointed and want help with this as soon as possible with someone who speaks
Swedish. THANK YOU IN ADVANCE / MARIA1 vote -

copy
Allow normal use of copy and paste with system-wide shortcuts from PDF comments. Most of the time I try to copy text from a PDF comment to paste into a document, the selection disappears and no "copy" option appears. I need to be able to copy and paste text from comments as easily as any other text. This issue is seen in 17.2.1 on an M1 iMac running Monterey 12.3.1.

overprint
Overprint in my currently installed versions of INDD (17.2.1) and AI (262.1) is unpredictable. I have ust received feedback from a client, that the date on a recently printed flyer is illegible. It is overprinting on a dark background, but in INDD the element is not set to overprinting. A screen PDF from the same INDD-file is completely normal. I've had this happeining in a couple of INDD-documents since the last update. I have had the same issue with an AI document this week as well.

object size and position options doesn't work as expected for grouped objects
Currently if you use the size and position options in the object styles panel, it applies the x,y position to all objects individually in a group rather than to the group itself.
Anchored objects currently handle grouped objects in the correct way. This feels like a bug/oversight.
Would expect a group of objects to behave as 1 rather than being each item being treated individually within a group

Redefine Character Style not available
When changing the parameters of a selection that has a Character Style applied, the 'Redefine Style' should become available in the Character Style's contextual menu. But unfortunately, this is not the case.

Cross reference broken by InCopy
A text element with cross references is added to an InCopy assignment. (The cross reference utilises the paragraph number - just in case, this should be important.)
After editing any text (not part of the cross reference source itself or the target paragraph) in InCopy, the cross reference is broken in InDesign. Same, if you change the target paragraph.
This happens in InDesign/InCopy 16.4 as well as 17.13 votes -
Appliquer des gabarit à des pages selon des conditions
Bonjour, après de longues recherches, je remarque qu'il n'y a aucune possibilité d'appliquer des gabarits selon des règles (présence de texte, grep, présence d'image, pourcentage du bloc de texte rempli, présence d'un style, etc.) à des pages spécifiques (à la première/dernière page, entre certaines pages, fonctionnement similaire au grep, etc.). On pourrait réaliser cela en donnant plusieurs gabarits à une page et donner des règles pour choisir lequel appliquer (avec une option pour choisir les pages de manière dynamique).
Pour ma part, je cherche désespérément un moyen dynamique et automatisé de cacher le folio/numéro de page lorsque que c'est une…1 vote -
On master page spread, items get applied to the wrong page
Say I have a two-page master, with facing pages turned on.
And say I have a rectangle spanning the top edge of my left page, and say the right page is empty.When I apply this master to a right sided page (thus using only the right side master), the left rectangle will be rendered onto the left page, even though it shouldn't (as the rectangle belongs to the left handed master, which isn't applied).
This happens when the rectangle is touching the spine, and it's probably rendered by indesign as being part of the right master.
This happens even…4 votes -
InDesign Share for Review @mentions are not sending emails to the contributors
People are leaving comments with the @mention option but the @person is not receiving those comments in email so they don't know that the comment was made.

Opening a document now causes lag for about 30 seconds, where I have no control
- Version of Adobe InDesign: 17.1
- Steps to reproduce the issues: a. Open document from the Mac Finder. (This lag happens whether I start with InDesign open or closed. b. I have zero control of anything while a progress indicator spins for about 30 seconds. c. A font error dialog pops up, and then I can finally control InDesign, starting by dismissing that dialog. Expected result: I expect instant control of InDesign, since my computer isn't that old and it's a pro model. Actual result: Slowness, lag - way too much, considering most of my documents are 8 pages long with…

Package doesn't include some fonts
When a supplied InDesign package with ALL necessary Document Fonts is re-packaged for distribution NOT ALL of those Fonts previously included will be re-packaged.
So, pretty much after the new package is created you have to compare the Document Fonts folders between the 2 to see which fonts are missing, or look through the new packaged document to see which ones are indeed missing.

InDesign running very slow while using Google Drive on macOS Monterey
I am using InDesign CC 2022 (v17.3.0.61 Apple Silicon supported) with Google Drive for desktop (59.0.3.0 Apple Silicon supported) on a MacBook Air (M1, 2020) and macOS Monterey 12.4 (21F79).
Google Drive uses the File Provider API supported by macOS Monterey 12.3 and later, but when the CPU usage of the macOS fileproviderd process increases, InDesign runs very slowly. Even mouse clicks on objects, menus, panels, etc. take tens of seconds from input to acceptance.
When the Google Drive file sync completes or pause, InDesign returns to its original behavior a short time later as the load on the fileproviderd…

Find Font bug when multiple fonts begin with same name
When a document contains multiple fonts with same family names (e.g. Arial and Arial Hebrew), the search font dialog box only makes available one of the fonts (e.g. if I want to search Arial, even if I select Arial in the available fonts in the search dialog box, the Search Font line will automatically show Arial hebrew so i can't just find Arial. I also have the same problems with multiple Helvetica Family fonts.

Hyperlinks In Document Not Linking Out
I am working in InDesign 17.3.
I can create and update the Share for Review link itself but all hyperlinks within the document won't work. The hyperlinks show up as links in the document and online (blue, underline) but when you click on them they don't do anything. You can't right click to get options to open in a new tab or copy the link.
The links work when you export as a PDF or publish online but not when you do Share for Review.
