File Info > Raw Data panel doesn't allow to select text and search
The File Info > Raw Data panel stopped working as expected:
-The search field doesn't work
-It's impossible to even select text in the panelI'm pretty sure it worked earlier - so something probably got broken recently.

Rendering intent not being respected switching color spaces inside Swatch-Panel
Hi there,
so apparently the rendering intent set in the document OR the application isn't being respected when the color space of a swatch is being changed e.g. from RGB to CMYK.
Tested in InDesign 15.1.3 and 16.0.1
Steps to reproduce:
1 create a new document, with working spaces sRGB and "PSO coated v3" (profile available on eci.org)
2 create a swatch, e.g. RGB 0 / 98 / 227
3 change to CMYK, results in the correct 90,64 / 63,6 / 0 / 0Now
- go back to step 2
- change the "Solid Color" rendering intent of the…2 votes -
balance columns + Span Columns = freeze
Version: Indesign 2021; 16.0
In a 2-column text box with "Balance columns" on, I applied "Span Columns: All" to a line of text. If I hit "OK" or turn on the preview, then Indesign freezes until I Force-Quit.

Indesign 2021 keeps crashing & closing for no reason
I have been working on the same document for a few days, and ever since the update of Indesign, it crashes at random instances.
It has crashed when I'm doing the following:
- Highlighting text
- Resizing text
- Moving an image
- Drawing a shape
- Just opening the document with inactivity for about 3 minsThese are small things & it is very time-consuming having to redo things several times.

Layer comps not working with Indesign on PC
A 32 grouped layered file originally drawn in Clip studio paint, added layer comps in Photoshop does either:
- upon placement place correctly but does not allow the changing of object layer options. OLO has a empty grey preview and does NOT change the image after pressing ok.
- upon "update links" crashed indesign or gives the error "cannot place this image, unsupported color space" (same image as above which DID place)I have tried to:
- move the layers to a new file, same effect
- opened other files similarly made which work
- tried this on a MAC…2 votes -
Endnotes with links incorrect when exporting to an accessible PDF file.
When exporting an InDesign file to an accessible PDF file (tagged PDF), if any endnotes contain hyperlinks, the tagging structure is messed up. Starting with the first hyperlink (not the links for the endnote references), all of the endnotes from that point on are in the link tag for that first hyperlink. I encountered a very similar bug a few years ago when exporting to the EPUB format with documents that contained endnotes that finally got resolved a year or so after the bug was reported.

Email Hyperlink Breaks
In the Hyperlinks panel, Email hyperlinks that include a subject that includes an ampersand will change from an Email-type to a URL-type when you click OK. Status will then appear as a red dot in the Hyperlinks panel instead of an envelope. Opening it again from the Hyperlinks panel will show the subject gone and in a URL format.
TO TEST - Highlight text in your document. Open the Hyperlinks Panel. Create a new hyperlink with the [+] button at the bottom of the panel, choose email as the type, type a valid email address, then enter a subject line…

InDesign Review Feature
My coworker and I are both suddenly facing major problems with the review functionality with Adobe InDesign 16.1 (Windows). This has only been occurring for about 10 days. When the review function actually works instead of an error or just loading nonstop (only works 30% of the time now), the links often don't work in the end for other viewers to review and show up as an error. Now, when this works, the comments from the review link are not showing up where they were placed, and when we go in to implement them manually in InDesign from the weblink,…

key commands randomly stop working
This is in InDesign version 16.0.1.
Key commands randomly stop working for zoom (command + spacebar), proportional sizing (command + shift and command + option + shift), and even just using shift to move on a vertical or horizontal line.
I use these constantly and the only way I have found to fix them is to restart my machine. restarting the program does not work and I can't find any conflict that may be causing this.3 votes -

'Share for review' showing name of a previously shared document, hasn't recognised which document to share
InDesign 16.0
Mac OS 10.15.7

Actual: Previous file's name is still populated. Changing it and sharing creates an error.
And now this has happened, restarting…

type tool behaves as selection tool
Hello guys, I'm experimenting this issue in which the Type tool is behaving as the selection tool.
Instead of selecting text, by double-clicking or click and drag, it just moves the text frame around. Double click is not highlighting the text either.
I'm running Indesign 16.1.0.20 on Big Sur 11.2.1
Thanks

Text cursor not displayed in InCopy on MacOS 11 (Big Sur)
I know that InDesign 2020 (15.1.2) and InCopy 2020 (15.1.2) are not and will not be supported on Mac OS 11 (Big Sur), but nevertheless we are doing some testing because. Our customers may upgrade their Mac or buy a new one with MacOS 11 installed and expect that everything works as before.
So we are doing some basic testing to be prepared.
For InDesign 2020 (and 2021 prerelease) it looks fine. No big surprises.In InCopy however I am running into a strange glitch: the text cursor doesn't show up in all view modes (story, galley, layout).
Did anyone…
