1. PDF Not updating on export

   Adobe InDesign 21.2
   I've been noticing when I export a pdf and override my last version that the changes do not update the new pdf version. I have to change the file name completely. I even deleted the file, re-exported, with the same name and it pulls the old PDF up!
   I've used this process for awhile and it's suddenly not working.

2. Myriad VF has a taller Ascent Baseline than Myriad Pro

   Myriad VF is supposed to be a variable version of Myriad Pro, so I was trying to use it in tandem/to replace Myriad Pro in the document I am working on. The huge problem is, for some reason the Ascent Baseline on Myriad VF is much taller than it should be, which then when I try to replace the font, it completely messes up everything. 

   I also have Myriad Variable Concept on my computer, (which is apparently supposed to only show up in Illustrator, or something? But it shows up in InDesign for me.) And it properly matches the Ascent baseline of Myriad Pro. 

   All 3 of them match on every baseline except Ascent too, so I’m thinking this is a bug. It only seems to effect things in InDesign, I’m not getting any misalignment in Photoshop or Illustrator, but I’m also not seeing all the same text box options in those programs that InDesign gives.

4. Highlighting or Changing Text

   I’m experiencing an issue when highlighting text to delete it, changing the case, or switching fonts. The entire text, including the text above (on the same page), disappears. If I scroll up and then back down, I can make it reappear.

5. [ID-4273263]With application frame "OFF", and multiple documents open InDesign 26 will resize them when switching between

   Before upgrading, I used to be able to have multipe .indd docs open next to a spreadsheet on my screen, now they automatically change size when I switch between them, seemingly "remembering" the state they were last resized to.

8. [ID-4262670][ERROR(RSC-005) in EPUB Checker]InDesign 20.3 creates target attributes to every link in EPUB

   The latest InDesign version (20.3) creates target="_blank" attributes to every link when exported as EPUB. Doesn't matter if the link contains URL or it's a link from a text anchor. The latest EPUB Check version (5.2.1) gives an error with every link that doesn't have href attribute which means every text anchor is invalid.

   For example:
   <h1 id="_idParaDest-1" class="Header-1"><a id="_idTextAnchor000" target="_blank"></a>Foreword</h1>

   In EPUB Check this is an error:
   ERROR(RSC-005): Error while parsing file: element "a" missing required attribute "href"

10. Continuous issues with 21.1 on Windows 11 - Won't Open/Crashing

    Since updating to 21.1 (2026), I have to repair the Visual C++ Redistributables, restart, and then reset preferences with Shift+Ctrl+Alt just to get InDesign to open. Error OXC0000142. I have done this numerous times, and each week, I have to do it again.

    It also has crashed my (and others on our team) computers which makes them boot into the BIOS to a Support Repair screen.

    21.1 is near unusable at this point.

14. Export to Flat psd --- not flat

    Export As..., option 'Flat image' does not result in an actual flat image. the result is a layer in Photoshop, instead of a Background / flat image.
    Why is this important? Because in InDesign, only really flat grayscales can be given a color. Unfortunately, the result of the Ai export has to be flattened in Photoshop before it can be used to color it in InDesign.

15. Cropped content inside frames becomes visible on older mobile PDF viewers.

    I found a rendering issue in InDesign 2021 (and potentially newer versions). When an image or PDF is placed inside a frame (cropped), the content outside the frame boundaries is still being rendered on older mobile devices' PDF viewers.

    Steps to reproduce:

    • Place a large PDF/Image inside a smaller InDesign frame.
    • Export as a standard PDF (Interactive or Print - High Quality).
    • View the PDF on an older smartphone (e.g., older Android/iOS built-in viewers).
    • The "hidden" parts outside the frame are visible.

    The content outside the frame should be completely clipped or removed from the render stream to ensure privacy and visual consistency across all devices.

    Exporting as PDF/X-1a:2001 solves the issue because it flattens the transparency/layers.

16. Can't edit page elements when updated from 2024 to 2026 versions of inDesign

    My book that is roughly 200+ pages was created in 2023 and was editable in all versions until I got to 2026. My computer's processing power is not in question, but I can no longer edit elements that were created on previous versions. If I make new pics, text blocks, or anything, those are editable, but nothing else. If I try and revert the file, it warns me that I may LOSE my material if trying to go back.. This is unacceptable. In ever instance I don't want to open the file in the newest version and each time it is updated on my computer "Stealthily" and pushes through the conversion.

    Maybe I'm missing something, is there a setting I need to have ON or OFF in order to edit all aspects of a page?

    If it's not this, then you have a bug that needs to be addressed.

    pic below, you notice the edit border on the text to the left; if I click on the right page text options, nothing happens, it can't be manipulated, selected or changed in any way.

17. InDesign refuses to run if it can't verify our license ONE TIME, wasting a full day of work.

    First off, you're missing a bug category: LICENSING

    Now the real defect: InDesign refuses to launch if it can't contact the license server ONCE. So... if you're on a long-distance flight and have a bunch of work to do, YOU CAN'T. There is no excuse for this. Any competent software will run temporarily in that instance.

    Furthermore, we have a fully-paid license. There is no reason for the software to check its license any more frequently than the billing cycle. At every check, the server should report to the software what the end of the currently-paid period is and the software will run without connection until then. And even then, the software should function for AT LEAST A DAY if it is offline.

    This should NEVER happen to a paying customer.

18. Keep setting of PDF export when cancalling the export

    Please make InDesign remember file name and other settings when user interrupts process of exporting PDF.

    Typical scenario: you start exporting PDF, you select the right folder, file name. InDesign the displays warning, some files are missing. So I cancel the export, fix the links. Unfortunately the time I spend looking for right folder, setting the right file name is not respected, I have to start the whole process again. It is annoying if you have a complex structure of folders located on a server share.

20. InDesign fails to open .indd files from Finder when full path is long on APFS external drive

    Environment:
    - macOS: 26.4.1
    - InDesign version: 21.3
    - Drive format: APFS external SSD
    - File location: /Volumes/nollueP41/작업드라이브/01프로젝트별/국립환경인재개발원/01_폐기물처리 및 자원순환의 이해 2기/작업/폐기물처리 및 자원순환의 이해 2기.indd

    Steps to reproduce:
    1. Place an .indd file in a deep folder path on an APFS external drive.
    2. Double-click the .indd file in Finder.
    3. InDesign launches or becomes active, but shows the error:
    “Missing required parameter 'from' for method 'open'.”
    4. Move the same file to the root level or a shorter path on the same external drive.
    5. Double-click again.

    Expected result:
    The .indd file should open normally from Finder regardless of full path length, as long as the path is valid in macOS.

    Actual result:
    The file fails to open from Finder when the full path is long. The same file opens normally via File > Open inside InDesign, and also opens when dragged into the InDesign window. Other file types such as PDF open normally from the same folder path.

    Additional notes:
    This appears to be an InDesign-specific issue handling long full paths passed from Finder, not a macOS file system issue.

    Environment:
    - macOS: 26.4.1
    - InDesign version: 21.3
    - Drive format: APFS external SSD
    - File location: /Volumes/nollueP41/작업드라이브/01프로젝트별/국립환경인재개발원/01_폐기물처리 및 자원순환의 이해 2기/작업/폐기물처리 및 자원순환의 이해 2기.indd

    Steps to reproduce:
    1. Place an .indd file in a deep folder path on an APFS external drive.
    2. Double-click the .indd file in Finder.
    3. InDesign launches or becomes active, but shows the error:
