Indesign 16.3 cannot make package
we are having a problem using INDD ( 16.3.2 ) with ours Mac Pro late 2013 ( Bigsur 11.4 ) while we are creating the package.

Indesign 16.3.2, Keyboard shortcut for preview (W) changes text appearance (from left justified to right justified) — but prints accurately.
Recent update to 16.3.2 — am working on an InDesign document that has a line of left-justified text.
1. When I use the keyboard shortcut "W" to view the document in Preview Mode (without boxes/positioning lines) the text jumps to the right hand side of the page.
2. When I click out of Preview mode (W again) it shows me the text where I placed it — left justified. I saved the document and reopened it and the bug is still there. When I make a pdf from it, or print the page, the line is correctly on the left.…1 vote -

Indesign is very again now very Sluggish. But getting very annoying Read Only Save issues when working with Books and single files over a network. Only remedy is to save to Desktop and replace files. This is potentially very dangerous and could create very expensive mistakes.

prompt message
a prompt appears on the bottom of my indesign screen after opening an old file I need to work on (my portfolio):
"Type 1 fonts will no longer be supported after 2023
A blue message box regarding Type 1 not being support starting 2023. Your document contains 0 Type 1 fonts...... more info....."
That box is not leaving my workspace even after I click for more information; It obstructs my workspace.
The chat technician says:
"The message must only be popping up while working on the document. It will not appear once you export it to other file format. I…

InDesign v16.4 corrupts my files while I'm working in them. It will try to recover the information but the same thing happens. Using 16.3.2
InDesign v 16.4 corrupts my files while I'm working on them. It will try to recover the information but the same thing happens over and over so I'm using v 16.3.2 for now.

Panel adjustment arrows do not stay, they just blink and gone.
Using 16.4 in Mac 11.6. Cannot slide panels in Application Frame mode. The arrows blink but go off quickly. If you're quick it works but not like it used to be.

Export Jpeg to nas, the file sometimes weighs 0kb
I have a IMac under macOs BigSur version 11.4 with an Intel processor, the version of Indesign is 16.3.2, when I export a newly created or existing Indesign file in a JPEG format to a NAS, sometimes my files will be 0kb, i don't understand why and it's random.
I put the screenshots in order so you can see my problem.

Paragraph border and shading error with anchored objects
when anchored objects (such as column Text or line numbers) are anchored in a Text using the options "Paragraph border" and "paragraph Shading" the borders and Shades will "randomly" disappear, or new border-lines will appear (when more then one paragraphs are merged, the lines always appear between the different styles, even though they work fine again when the object is de-anchored). Sometimes the appearance doesn't change when an object is anchored, but when the anchored object is edited (for example, when the size of the anchored object is changed).
This is reproducable on my Windows 10, using InDesign 15.1.4.

Make Crop Marks always outside the Bleed
People who don't understand bleed (and they are out there) leave the Marks Offset setting on default, which causes problems when they send their files out for printing.
There is absolutely no situation or circumstance in which it is a good idea to have the Crop Marks inside the Bleed. Not one. Not Ever.
So why do we have to adjust the Marks Offset when we change the Bleed ? Why is it not even offered as an option in the Preferences to set this automatically ?
It's not just when exporting a PDF, but also when Printing, from InDesign,…

Index sorting: offering choices «letter by letter» vs «word by word» vs user defined
When generating an index, InDesign has always use letters by letters sorting. It would be far useful if InDesign Index offer the choice between:
a) letters by letters;
b) Words by Words;
or c) Custom user entryHaving to manually fix multiple level of indexes is painful and make no sense at all with a computer generated content like an Index.
PS: Affinity Publisher is using «words by words» by default.
