Bug texto oculto
Ao inserir o texto para edição, mesmo que haja espaço na página, o texto fica oculto. Mesmo adicionando uma nova página em branco para seguir com a edição, o quadro de texto aparece em branco e o texto continua oculto. Esse bug ocorreu duas vezes durante a diagramação de um e-book em momentos aleatórios.
Em um primeiro momento pensei que fosse um bug com a quebra e página mas conferindo no "Editor de matérias" percebi que o problema não estava relacionado com a quebra da página.

Issue Not Resolved: Cannot Implement and/or Copy Any Review Comments
This was previously mentioned with multiple votes and then marked as resolved by admin. However, multiple comments show that this bug is CRITICAL and NOT FIXED with the latest update.
Share for Review is essentially useless at the moment since there's no way to either A) download the PDF with edits, B) implement a change from the comment, or C) copy and paste the comment from the review panel.
Please fix, these features all work when sharing an exported PDF for review and then importing comments. Absolutely zero excuse that this expensive of a software cannot solve this and then…

Windows 10 / InDesign 19.5 x64 - Text Frame and Zoom Window Problems
When attempting to use the Text Tool to creat a text frame by using the click / drag / release method either nothing happens (99% of the time), the text frame is invisble (I confirmed a text frame was created by viewing 'Undo Create Text Frame'), the release of the mouse pointer occurs on its own.
Expected result: create a text frame in a single movement: left click the mouse on a location, drag while the mouse button is held down, release the button to create a text frame
Actual result: 99% of the time nothing
When using the click…

InDesign crashes/freezes when closing the application
InDesign freezes when you try to Quit the application. InDesign cannot be quit, it has to Forced Kill.
13 votesMany internal as well as external factors can cause the InDesign application to crash/freeze/hang. A few workarounds are listed at Fix crash issues with InDesign.
We completed the investigation and came up with the following: Either the issue has been resolved in the most recent release of InDesign (Refer to InDesign Release notes), the issue was intermittent at the time of reporting and is no longer reproducible, or the InDesign version mentioned in the report is no longer covered by Creative Cloud Support Policy.
We would recommend you upgrade to the latest version as it is more robust. If you are still facing this issue even after updating it, either submit the crash report(Refer to Submitting crash reports) to us or Contact Adobe support.

html footnote
I have the problem that the export of HTML from InDesign CC24 spits out a completely different structure for the footnotes, now the footnotes are a ordered list, even if the lists are output in text during export.
Please find attached screenshots of CC23 and CC24.2 votes -

Damaged capitals
In Design 19.3 x64
After pouring in an editable file (MS Word 2010), where the capitals were in the footnotes in the names of the author(s) and editor(s) the capitals did not include the last letter of the last name or the last two letters.
Earlier versions (3-4 updates) worked fine.
Selecting the author's name and including capitals does not help. Further the last letter (or two) are not capitals. You have to mark the name and a comma (sometimes even a space) to make the full name capitals.
It takes more time, more attention to correct all the footnotes.…2 votes -
gradient color fill of many highlighted individual table cells can not performed
There must be more controls of the filling methods of table cells:

text color not showed in track change
In the Story Editor, when Track Changes is activated, there are 3 types of visual indicators for change: text color, background color, and marking. In practice only the marking and the background color work, while the text color is always displayed in black. Attached is a screenshot.

"Insufficient data for an image" error is shown on opening PDF in Acrobat
We are experiencing issues with exporting to PDF. Hi res PDF Compatibility Acrobat 7 (PDF 1.6).

We tried to solve this problem within our team. Eventually, we discovered that the issue did not occur for one of our colleagues.

InDesign Window Keeps Moving
I keep running into issues with my InDesign application window moving around. The window continually resizes itself slightly or moves to the side of the monitor (cutting off access to some of the tools) when I haven't tried to resize it. This isn't a 'once in a while' issue; it's happening consistently, multiple times a session.
I'm running Indesign 2024 on a MacBook Pro with Apple M2 Pro Chip and macOS Ventura 13.5.1.
The issue also persists on my laptop monitor and when connected to external monitors (I run one 4K colour-accurate monitor and one standard 1080p monitor).
It would…

Scripting bug with Book files and the new EPUB Page Navigation option
In InDesign 19.4 on macOS 14.4.1, the document.epubExportPreferences.epubCreatePageNavigation and book.epubExportPreferences.epubCreatePageNavigation properties are supposed to allow scripts to toggle the reflowable EPUB "page navigation" option on and off. However, only the document.epubExportPreferences.epubCreatePageNavigation property functions properly. The book.epubExportPreferences.epubCreatePageNavigation doesn't do anything. Regardless of whether it is "true" or "false", the output always includes the page break markers when outputting reflowable ePub from a book file via scripting.

Overridden page items are still linked to master pages
Overridden items from parent pages are not really overridden, and may be silently deleted. Here is how:
- Make new spread document
- Go to Parent Page "A-Parent"
- Make a red box on left master page. Make a green box on right master page
- Add two pages to the document, page 2 and 3 is now a spread with a red and a green box
- Select the two pages in the pages panel. Right-click and choose "Override all parent page items"
- Move the green box from page 3 to page 2 by dragging it. Move the red box from page 2 to…

Trouble having more than 1 INDD file open
I can't open more than 1 INDD file at a time. I need to copy and paste from sections of one INDD into another. It will lock. You have to force it to quit. I lose time and my changes. My IT department at work said to contact Adobe. What should I do?

Window jumps to maximum size in 19.2
Since version 19.2, InDesign's window behavior has been weird and wrong. With each mouse click it jumps to the maximum window size. If I resize the window, the next mouse click will maximize it again. Very annoying. This is only in 19.2. I have a Mac Studio M1 and a 49-inch Dell U4919DW monitor (size 5120 x 1440 pixels), so I don't want to work at the full size of the screen.
