2. Data merge and EXIF

   Presumably this is a bug. If you place a portrait photo from a camera in an InDesign document, InDesign will respect the EXIF information included with the file, and orientate the image accordingly.

   However, if you use Data Merge and import photos dynamically via an image field, those same photos will be imported with the incorrect orientation, i.e. it ignores the rotation specified in EXIF. This can be very laborious to correct if not all photos are taken with the same orientation.

4. CC 2020 - Text tool switches back to previous tool, deselects itself

   Indesign 15.1.2 user here.

   Abnormally while im working in big sized files in indesign, whenever i press my Type Tool shortcut (which is "T") cursor goes to Type tool for a second then goes back to usally selection tool.

   When i go and choose the Type tool from left side bar it works.

   Im using windows pro 10. Re installed the program for few times.
   Saw other threads opened for the same issue but looks like you guys closed time bc it is fixed. But it is not! And it is incredibely time consuming!

6. [ID-4219732]Slow performance

   Lately InDesign is nearly unusable. Almost every action from selecting objects, resizing objects, or moving objects comes with a really slow reaction time. Even when clicking between panels in the toolbar there is a delay of about half a second.

   I have tried ruling out potential issues like updating graphic drivers and embedding all resources into the document. Nothing works it seems like the application is just unstable. Please advise, I love to work with indesign but this is overall a very bad user experience.

   Customer comments

   • InDesign lags when rearranging text boxes, adding image frames, adjusting frames that already exist
   • Selecting an item (e.g. text frame) in small and really uncomplicated documents has slight but very noticeable delays/lags, almost as if the click hangs and makes the item drag a little instead of just being selected.
   • Performance degradation is observed if more than 1 document is opened
   • Creating packages (File > Package) takes so much time – especially collecting image files into the Links-folder. This behavior is generally observed with Illustrator files.
   • Performance degradation is observed while working on indd document and not with the IDML of the indd document.
   • Lag observed for almost every action from selecting objects, resizing objects, or moving objects

   Troubleshooting steps tried to resolve issues

   • Disable 3rd party plugins - One of the customer has tried with Suitcase Fusion but there was no improvement in the performance.

   Workarounds

   • Change the name of the image folder to disable the dynamic links to picture.
   • Exporting the document to IDML and working on it. Once the document is saved, the performance degradation is observed.
   • Disabling network and internet helps in improving the performance.

   Next Steps 

   • Please provide the number of links in the document when you start facing performance issues
   • Does turning off Links panel help improve performance?
   • Where do you link image from Local/Network/Shared Drives(One drive, Drop box etc)
   • All the machines mentioned in the UserVoice thread are intel based. Performance for Apple Silicon/M1/M2 machines is way better than Intel machines. Is there any user who is using Apple Silicon/M1/M2 and facing performance issues.

7. Publish Online from Indesign. Deepetch issue

   Good day, all. I'm desperately trying to resolve an issue that I have tried for days to fix. The images are all fine in my InDesign document. They are PNGs with no background. I've tried EPS and TIFFs with clipping paths. And still, I get the same issue.

   Which is....when I publish the document and view it online. The backgrounds are white - as if all the deep etching disappeared.

   Please advise - I don't know what else to do.

9. dropbox sync font file issue

   InDesign 15.1.1 creating font sync issue with Dropbox where it repeatedly changes the AdobeFnt22.lst file again and again while Dropbox tries to sync the file folder. This causes the editing process to be exceptionally sluggish and unresponsive when attempting to edit files saved to Dropbox folders. This does not happen on files saved to local drive (e.g. desktop) only Dropbox folders, and only in the most recent update. Previously it has not been an issue.

11. unknown character

    1. Adobe InDesign 2021

    2.3.4.

    Hello,

    For several months now, when I place a .docx document in inDesign, it can happen that a character is misinterpreted by inDesign.
    It's as if it's invisible for the layout, but it actually cuts the word in half for spelling correction, for example.
    When I copy it to search for it with inDesign with or without GREP, it does paste something (a lowercase L or an uppercase i preceded by a ^ in normal or ~ in GREP) but it doesn't find it.
    When displaying hidden characters it appears as two vertical red dots (see my photo).
    Sometimes it also appears at the very beginning of a sentence.

    French :
    caractère inconnu

    Bonjour,

    Depuis plusieurs mois, lorsque je place un document .docx dans inDesign, il peut arriver qu’un caractère soit comme mal interprété par inDesign.
    Il est comme invisible pour la mise en page, mais il coupe en fait le mot en deux pour la correction orthographique par exemple.
    Lorsque je le copie pour le rechercher avec inDesign avec ou sans GREP, il colle bien quelque chose (un L minuscule ou un i majuscule précédé d’un ^ en normal ou ~ en GREP) mais il ne le trouve pas.
    En affichant les caractères masqués il apparait comme deux points rouges verticaux (voir ma photo).
    Parfois il apparait aussi en tout début de phrase.

17. Text rendering bug – the edited text is rendered over older version of the text

    I work on a book. While editing the book, I face constant rendering issues: the updated text is rendered on top of the unaltered text. It happens irregularly many times a day. The problem is not document oriented nor platform specific. I started to make screenshots in March and the bug is still present.
    It is very annoying. The only solution is to switch to Selection tool and the change select the Text tool. If you seriously edit a document and you face rendering bugs every five minutes, it is pain **********.

18. Data Merge function "Remove Blank Lines for Empty Fields" deletes the wrong paragraph

    Version of Adobe InDesign, InCopy or InDesign Server

    Adobe InDesign 15.0.1

    macOS High Sierra 10.13.6

    iMac 27 Zoll End 2012

    Steps to reproduce the issues

    See also attached video

    Open Document "02VKLeerzeilenTEMPEnde.indd"
    Open Data-Merge Panel
    Generate a merged document with click on the button
    Uncheck "Remove Blank Lines for Empty Fields" in Content Placement Options
    Press [OK]
    Repeat Step 3 this time Check "Remove Blank Lines for Empty Fields" in Content Placement Options
    Press [OK]
    Put the documents side by side
    Activate "Show Style override" in the paragraph panel
    Jump to page 2
    On the left side (Merged Document, Blank line intact) you can see the 2 markers followed by a paragraph symbol
    On the right side (Merged Document, Blank line removed) you can see that the 2 markers with paragraph symbol moved 1 line up behind the 7 and the other paragraph symbol is deleted
    Everything is o.k. because the paragraph style (07padresse) of the line "Mobile" and the deleted "Blank line" are the same
    Jump to page 3
    On the left side you can see the 2 markers followed by a paragraph symbol
    On the right side (Merged Document, Blank line removed) you can see that the 2 markers with paragraph symbol moved 1 line up and the other paragraph symbol (blue highlighted on the left side) is deleted BUT this time the paragraph style of these 2 paragraph are NOT the same! The result is a bigger gap between the two sentence "Frau Marie…" and Tel: 012…" on the right then it should be as you can see on the left

    Expected result
    The Blank line (2 markers and paragraph symbol) should be deleted/removed

    Actual result
    Instead of the Blank line (2 markers and paragraph symbol) the paragraph symbol before that (blue highlighted on the left side) is removed AND the remaining paragraph also picks up the paragraph style from the "Blank line" (if there were text in my example you could see that as well)

    Workaround
    You can generate a merged document with Blank lines and delete/remove them with Find/Change
    Find > (markers) + paragraph symbol = <FEFF><FEFF>^p
    Change > to nothing
    This way everything stays intact!

20. Share for review

    During this pandemic, I'm am trying to use the 'share for review' feature for a book I'm laying out. It is 600 pages, 300 spreads, about 333 MB file. It includes images and text.
    I've designed other books -- the printer had no problem with the files
    I'm using a Mac with InDesign 15.1.
    When I tried to share the file, 4 pages - 2 spreads uploaded. I tried again and 8 pages - 4 spread, appeared for sharing. I didn't choose them, it is what InDesign randomly chose.
    As an experiment, I created another file and tried to upload 100 pages. It worked.
    I tried 200 pages. It didn't work. I received two different messages which I will attach. I tried to share a 150 page and received another artifact error.
    Because of another message, I increased my cloud storage from 100 MB to 1 TB. So far that hasn't improved sharing but I wanted to make sure this wasn't the issue.
    Is there a setting I'm not seeing or something I need to do first before trying to upload the complete file? Or is there a maximum number of pages before the share for review stops working? If so, it would be helpful to know in advance before trying to work with your help/support team who are not coming up with any help and referred me to this page.
