  1. Share for Review

    After sending out a "Share for Review" in InDesign, I went back to the file after people made comments and when I go to the review, the only option is to create a new review. But if i go to my email notification and click on the link, I can see the review that way. I did not "save as" to the file.

  2. Major System Font Issue!

    WHAT THE FONT!?!

    Our publishing company recently ran the InDesign update (to 15.0.2) and have discovered some major font issues. I have narrowed it down to InDesign 15.0.2, macOS Catalina 10.15.3, and Suitcase Fusion 21.0.0. I actually don't think Suitcase has too much to do with this, because the problem occurred after the InDesign update, but it's our font management software so I'm including it. Basically it appears system fonts have become problematic with InDesign. Packaged files are suddenly showing up with lots of the dreaded pink. I have tested about everything I can. I even created some very simple…

  3. enorme problème d'affichage dès que je scrolle ou zoome

    J'ai un énorme problème d'affichage depuis quelques temps, lorsque je scrolle mes pages sont illisibles, comme si il manquait des morceaux comme si elles s'auto-aspiraient par leur centre... ça se décale par le bord et le milieu.
    ca m'est devenu très difficile de travailler, je ne sais pas comment faire.
    Régulièrement ma barre d'outils disparait également.

  5. tracking

    Having lots of issues since the latest update (17.2) with the character box.

    When I highlight my text it won't allow me to click the dropdown to change the font or the tracking.

    If I click on the 'tracking' field, I can type the number in manually but I can't see it. I also cannot click the up and down buttons to change it that way.

  6. Arabic exported to EPUB (Fixed Layout) doesn't show properly

    • InDesign 15.1.2 / Mac OS 10.15.6

    • Create an InDesign document with Arabic content. Apply any Arabic font.

    • When exporting to EPUB (Fixed Layout) we should see the Arabic text appear in the epub viewer in similar manner as it shows in InDesign document.

    • The exported epub document is viewed in Apple's Books application, and Adobes Digital Editions 4.5 with similar problems in both epub viewers, where all Arabic text is either invisible or messed up and shifted from its location.

    • Attached images from InDesign document, and epub file which was exported from InDesign.

  13. Unable to delete PDF comments

    In Indesign 17.0.1, I have a few book files in which once I import PDF comments and apply them, I cannot delete them. Also if I choose to filter the comments by "unresolved" once I resolve or apply a comment, it does not disappear as it should. File now has multiple rounds of comments that need to be deleted to make way future rounds of revision. Also finding that applying the comments is VERY slow and buggy (this book is ~300 pages).

  15. Sélection multiple

    La possibilité de faire des sélections multiples dans un même bloc de texte serait une bonne idée. Comme le fait si bien VSCode avec le bouton alt+click gauche. Une autre chose la prise en compte de shift et du pavet numérique pour aller en début ou en fin de ligne Shift + 1 = fin de ligne et Shift + 7 pour le début de ligne.

  17. Can't do long math in some Opacity text fields

    This is a very minor bug I ran into. In certain text fields that set an object's Opacity value, the character limit is 5 characters, which is not enough to do certain mathematical operations, like 12.5/2. If the value is a decimal number with two places, no math can be performed at all.

    The 5 character limit applies to the control that appears in the Control panel when selecting an object, and the control that appears in the Effects panel when selecting an object.

    The only field that allows enough characters to perform that operation is the one found in…

  18. Pages window isn't showing pages

    v 17.2
    With the new update, the Pages window/panel is not showing the pages in document. The panel is locked to the side in my workspace.

  20. Spell Check does not work after installing InDesign 15.0.2

    Dear Adobe Team,
    in our office we use In Design from several years without nothing problems.

    Yesterday we had updated the version 15.0.2. After that, the spell-check (we use the Italian language) don’t work if we import text in a existing document.
