Type 1 error when opening InDesign file not reflected in Find/Replace Fonts window
I now regularly get a pop-up blue box error message regarding Type 1 fonts in the files I'm working in. Example: "Your document contains 6 Type 1 fonts." However, if I open Find/Replace Font dialoge, the summary at top of window says "Type 1 fonts : 0". That error message is annoying AND incorrect -- unless the Find/Replace Fonts window is incorrect. Can these be updated to align their messages?

wacom display
I just upgraded to a Wacom 32 tablet and am having this problem only in Indesign. There are random little grey squares all over the page - and not just the file window but the entire "artboard" area. Other apps are not doing this. I've tried zooming in and out, display quality settings, nothing has helped. And it's not an image issue - it's basically a display issue. I have no idea how to fix this and I'm almost rendered unable to do at least 50% of my job as I'm not just an illustrator but a designer too. The…

alternate layouts
I want to prevent Indesign from adding alternate layouts to my file. I sometimes have to move pages from one document to another. I am using the page panel-move pages and then telling it the document I want the pages moved to. It adds an alternate layout. Is there a way to prevent this from automatically happening? It should be a feature that I turn on IF I WANT it. not one that I can't turn off.

Background Color changes to something crazy
Background colors (that should just be white) go crazy on tables and other pages until InDesign is quit and re-opened. There's no specific action that seems to trigger the issue, and it appears intermittently. This is happening on version 16.4.0.54.

Variable fonts: default face location included in style list even if not included in fvar
I sent a variable test font to Josh Hadley. It includes an fvar table that does not contain the location of the default instance. InDesign v17.0.1 on Windows will include the default location anyway in the list of styles for the font, with a made up name. Should it not restrict itself to what it finds in the fvar and STAT tables?

InDesign is still unusably slow
Despite many many threads about this, I cannot find an answer that solves this issue. I am getting a spinning wheel on almost every action I perform in InDesign. It spins for around 10 seconds and then is good until I do anything else. It is incredibly frustrating.
I am running InDesign 16.3.2 a part of Adobe CC 2021.
I am on a 2018 MacBook Pro, running Big Sur 11.4
32 GB Ram
2.9GHz i9 ProcessorI have tried a bunch of 'answers' from previous threads but none seem to work. Please help!

Book file issue
Using ID 17.0.01 x64 on Windows 11, when closing all files, but not the .indb file, the files disappear and and screen reverts to the opening screen. Under Window, the book file appears and when clicking on it, the book file shows up in the upper left hand corner of the screen. Not where I put it at the top of the right panel. Plus, it shows the last file closed wasn't saved in the book.
Previously, the book file remained open, visible where I placed it, and the files were saved and showing saved.1 vote -

If a list has a span, footnotes will appear before the list, not at the bottom of the page.
I have many list paragraph styles, some of them formatted as spans. When I hit a footnote, it appears above the span, and can only be sent to the bottom of the page when the span is removed. This happened before and after the latest upgrade.

Come on guys this is basic stuff - can barely layout info like this.
Text boxes only showing the line I'm editing and not the entire paragraph
This is constantly happening. I'm on the latest everything. M1 MacBook Pro.I have to zoom in and zoom out to fix. This is unworkable. Just get the basics right guys... Adobe is impossible for reasons like this. If you can't get the basics right - don't bother developing new features. No wonder Apple think you develop below par software. This is your job to develop software that…

Placed/Imported Photos glitching, changing colors, white noise effect
File> Placed Photos glitching, changing colors, white noise effect, or turn black. Tried dragging and dropping onto artboard but pictures keep importing distorted. Reset all presets and preferences. Uninstalled and reinstalled with no luck. Photos should import as is instead of glitching and most of all changing colors. This started happening after I updated InDesign beginning of this month (November 2021).

[ID-4219714]CEPHtmlEngine maxes out CPU to 100%
macOS Catalina 10.15.5. and InDesign. 15.1.1.
Massive problem with CEPHtmlEngine Helper. After a while, my MacBook Pro fan is running high and in the activity window, CEPHtmlEngine Helper is running between 90 and 100%. It is no fun to work with a system that runs crazy.
Why? Solution needed.41 votesThis issue is being reviewed again.

The new version of INDesign just doesn't work.
Installed.
Now uninstalling.
It continually keeps being unresponsive.
Another error now on Cloud, suggesting relancing it as it's taking .longer than normal.Poor from Adobe to launch yet another bug fix that's even more buggy

Can no longer change fonts in the glyph table
Can no longer change fonts within the glyph table.
It used to be possible to have a character selected and change fonts or typefaces in the glyph table to discover where that character exists in another font. Now it only reverts to whatever paragraph or character style is already applied and doesn't allow the font to be changed.

Find/change 15.1.3, Windows 10
Find/change does not work when a character style (e.g. italic) is selected.
Have closed program and started it again, and it works for words selected, but could not get it to find this question mark character ?, nor would it change format of a word to italics when this was selected under the Find Format and/or Change Format boxes. Following this I also found it would not find a selected word with no formatting changes requested.1 vote -
2022 InDesign bugs
when using ID 2021 and before, When I sized a graphic, say, from 100 to 50%, the info box would say the graphic is now 50%. In ID 2022, when I reduce a graphic, the box says it is 100%. I am not liking this.
