1. Saving BOOK file (.indb) acts as SAVE AS

   Adobe InDesign v16.1 (12 Feb 2021 release)
   Windows 10

   This bug has appeared again, after disappearing for a couple of versions. But it was in a previous version a few months ago.

   When the Book properties panel is open, I make changes to my Book file (.indb) and then close the Book panel or select "Save" from the panel menu. It asks me do I want to save.

   Yes, I want to save... but the dialog box is acting like a Save As... It's asking me for a file name, then asking me to overwrite the existing file, instead of simply saving the existing file as a regular Save should do.

2. Paste Discretionary Line Break Malfunction

   The discretionary break character is an awesome addition. But I think it came with a bug:

   When typesetting text that contains URLs, I use a GREP search to find all URL strings in order to globally apply a character style with Language set to [No Language] in order to suppress any auto-hyphenation.

   I then use some search-replaces to globally insert discretionary breaks in places I don't mind URLs breaking, such as preceding periods and hard hyphens. This technique can still leave too-loose or too-tight letter-spacing when URLs contain long unbroken letter strings, and in those cases I insert discretionary line breaks where I want them (often recapitulating hyphenation in actual words contained in URLs, or just wherever if the URL contains a long random character string of some sort).

   ANYWAY. Sometimes, unpredictably, if I use Type: Insert Break Character: Discretionary Line Break to insert a discretionary line break, then highlight the character and copy it, and then try to use Paste to insert the discretionary line break character elsewhere, instead of inserting the discretionary line break what happens is the letter immediately following the insertion point gets deleted.

3. cannot scroll to preview corner options

   InDesign 16.3 CC download, Win64: In previous versions of InDesign I could select a text or image box, open the 'corner options' drop-down list, and arrow/scroll through the options to preview the effect of each on the selected box. In InDesign CC, I can arrow through the list but no previews are shown on the selected box. Instead, it takes 12 clicks to re-open and select each of the six options. I have posted this problem in the community, with responses from Bill Silbert and Steve Werner. They concur that it's an InDesign/Windows Bug.

5. Type tool still lags when hitting the (T) shortcut key

   Hi, the type key short cut bug seems to have been fixed but when you hit the shortcut to bring up the type tool it is still very laggy. Any thought on this?

   When disabling character in the settings it is instant. But i don't want to keep having to do this.

   Thanks,

6. Colour Shift in Indesign CC 2021 16.4.0.54

   I upgraded last week to Indesign CC 2021. When I export ads from from Indesign that contain tiffs with a coloured background and sit on a background of the same CMYK colour values in Indesign, I encounter an issue which didn't exist in previous versions - when I output a pdf or jpg from the ad there is a noticeable colour shift in the image. I have been outputting ads using this coloured background method for years with no issue.

   This has worked fine previously in CC 2020 and earlier versions of Indesign but it appears to be something to do with exporting files like this in general rather than just an issue with pdfs themselves.

   To work around this in the interim I had to place clipping paths on the images, which solved the problem. It also creates a thin bar of colour on the right of the image picture box.

   A couple of people had a look at this in the Community Support Forum and had exactly the same issues, their conclusion was the same as mine, this appears to be a bug.

   Any help on this matter would be greatly appreciated.

8. CC Library panel freezes and is unusable until InDesign is re-launched

   In the last update or perhaps the one prior, the CC Library panel freezes and is unusable. You can't select anything, search for anything, or change libraries.

   Closing the panel and opening it again has no affect.

   The only workaround is to quit and re-launch InDesign. The panel will then work for a time but will freeze again at some point.

   This horrendous bug is in addition to a new annoying one where you can't drag and drop a graphic from the document INTO the CC Library panel to add it. You have to select the graphic, then click the + icon in the panel, then click Graphic.

9. "Share for review" somehow linked to old file

   Had an older file that was Shared for Review and used it as a template. Saved the file under a different name, another user made some changes to the file, and this other user then Shared for Review. But the Share for Review under the new file says "You cannot access comments because another user has an active review for this document". But if i open the review under the newer file it takes me to the old file. Neither of us can see the comments under REVIEW in InDesign. We can see the comments if we go to the email link. Any help on this situation. Or how do we close the old review?

11. Sporadic, haphazard emboldening of footer font on document pages

    Adobe InDesign v17.0.1
    2020 Mac Mini, Apple M1 chip, 16 GB memory
    macOS: Big Sur, V11.5.2

    I have a multipage document with a folio and page number in the footer. The footer text is a regular weight Helvetica Neue LT Std (OT) font, and the folios (page numbers) are bold; the bold is nested into the paragraph style for the footers with a GREP designation. The footer text boxes are NOT active on the pages but are linked to the parent pages. Expected result: all footers match the font weight of the footer in the parent page to which they’re linked, defined by the paragraph style.

    Actual result: Sporadically and haphazardly, the entire footer on one page will be bold; this appears, disappears, and reappears while scrolling through the document. I closed the document, quit InDesign, and reopened the document, and found that the issue appeared on a different page. The problem is that it's also showing up when exporting a PDF. This is a big issue, because I don't want this printing—and never know where it will show up.

12. Share for review won't update link with Indesign version 17.0.1

    I've tried quitting, signing out of Adobe, restarting my computer, exporting PDFs and more and nothing seems to solve this issue. I only have been experiencing this consistently with the latest version. I'm on a Mac with Big Sur version 11.5.2 as well and it's not limited to one document, it happens for the majority of my documents.

17. Big Bug?With the same page size and margins, there is an offset after A is moved to B?

    A file and B file have the same page size and margins.
    I moved pages 1-8 of A to page 2 of B. As a result, starting from page 3, the horizontal position would shift.
    They should all be right in the version, but they don't.

    However, if you move all the pages (pages 1-17) of file A to the second page of B at one time.
    If it is correct.

    why is that?
    The reason for the coordinates? I didn't find the reason
    I tried: it has something to do with the chapter

    File is here

    You can also create a new one yourself, it should be the same problem

19. Error when exporting to Rich Text Format (*.rtf)

    Adobe InDesign 17.0.1 x64

    When exporting a Story's text to Rich Text Format (*.rtf), if there are Endnotes in this Story, the notes will not be exported.
    To export notes you need to convert Endnotes to Footnotes, however there is also an error when converting Endnotes to Footnotes.
    When converting Endnotes to Footnotes all text attributes (bold, italic, etc) that exist in the notes will be lost.
    If the attribute is placed in the note via a character style, for example a character style that only puts italics, the italic will be preserved but as text exported to .rtf will be used for a web post, the character style it will not be recognized and the italics will eventually be lost.
    It should be possible to export Endnotes to .rtf and also converting Endnotes to Footnotes should not lose the text attributes that are in the note.

20. indesign export to pdf unusable for Thai

    Basically all the diacritics are messed up, regardless of font used. The PDF looks fine but the text if copied from the PdF is garbled.
    This is in 16.2.1 (2021). It was working in 2019.
