1. UI Interface Overlapping

   Adobe Indesign 20.0

   Reproduction: Opening InDesign or working on a file with extensive links

   Expected Result: UI elements act as intended and do not overlap other portions of the interface, does not interfere with workflow

   Actual Result: Portions of the UI are unusable due to overlapping and cannot see the last few links in the Links panel

   First noticed this error on 10/16/2024 after updating InDesign the day prior

2. Latest instead of the earliest version required in N-2 policy

   Indesign 2024 is buggy on my 27" iMac running mac OS Big Sur. 2025 is not compatible. So I use 2023. Just after the introduction of ID2025, Indesign and Creative Cloud stopped working for some reason and after cleaning my system of Adobe files to have it running again, I only have access to 18.0 instead of the leatest 18.5.X. Why do we only get the earliest version 18.0 and not the latest version of the N-2? Can we get the most recent N-2 version? Thank you.

3. Inversed Rounded Corners Don't Match on All Sides

   When using the Inverse Rounded Corners in Corner Options, the corner shape doesn't match another box right next to it with the same settings when side by side. So when 2 boxes with the same corner options are next to each other it doesn't make a circle in the empty space but rather an angled rounded rectangle. It seems the top left and bottom right are one way and the top right and bottom left are another. It doesn't matter if the boxes are the same size or different. This issue was present in both InDesign 2020 and 2024 versions for testing. This was not an issue previously.

5. scrolling text frame

   When publishing my file online, a gap appears in the text within the scrolling text frame. (see attachment) The gap seems to be aligned to the place where the text hits the bottom of the container frame. There are no extra characters causing this gap in the text. I had the same issue with a document a year ago, but it looks like this bug is still there.

   Version: Indesign 2025

   Steps to reproduce issues:
   •Paste longer text box into container box.
   •Align content to top left.
   •Use overlays panel, choose "Scrollable frame," Scroll direction: vertical, Initial content position: Upper left, Export Format : Vector
   •Publish Online > Publish

   Expected result: text scrolls and appearance remains same as text in original large content box

   Actual result: text scrolls but a gap appears - in approximately the same location as where the text hits the bottom of the container frame.

6. The link is set to "anyone with link can comment" but it's still requiring a password

   I have created a share for review link for others to comment on, however it's requiring them to log into an account even though it's set to "Anyone with the link can comment". This was not the case before, others could comment as a guest. Using InDesign 2024 v19.0.1

7. Comments in a review are stripped after I upgraded to the latest version of InDesign

   Today I updated InDesign to the latest version (20.0, Windows). A client had left some comments in an online review initiated through the previous version, and now those comments are all stripped from the document when I open it in v20.0.

8. Alternate glyphs change order unpredicatably

   If I show some alternate glyphs (whether in the tiny popup - can we resize this? - or in the Glyphs panel), when I select one, the order of the other glyphs changes. This is really annoying - can they PLEASE stay in the same order, so I can easily switch between them. The current (wrong) system goes like this:
   Type a word
   Highlight a character
   The miniscule glyphs pop-up pops up
   I choose the second (miniscule) glyph in the pop-up
   I don't really like it
   I choose the third glyph in the pop-up
   Hold on - isn't that the same as the original one? Oh, all the glyphs have moved around - why??
   I choose the first one in the list - is that the same as the one in the second position originally? I think so...maybe - let's check...OH GRRRR!! They've all moved around AGAIN! WHY?!

   If they all stayed in the same place, choosing them would be MUCH easier and less painful. Please keep them in position and don't randomly shuffle them about for no reason! It's as if you took a leaf out of Windows' book and got inspiration from the fundamentally flawed Task Switcher which also re-arranges the order of things each time, just to annoy the user.

9. current page marker font malfunction if 3 digits or more

   The third digit and beyond in the "current page number" marker is distorted in certain fonts, and almost appears to be an old style number (shifted down and squished), even when I set the font's Figure Style to "Proportional Lining" under Paragraph Style > OpenType Features > Figure Style. In fact, it also seems to do it in automated footnote reference numbers, where control of the Figure Style doesn’t seem to work either. However, when I just type out the number using the same style, it appears correct. This issue appears to be in Adobe InDesign 2024 (19.3), but when I got back to ID 2023 (18.5.2) the issue disappears.

   This is a HUGE issue because I am a book designer, and most of the books I design are go into 3 digit page numbers or more -- and if I can't control the look of the font, then it forces me to go back to ID 2023 to make it work. It doesn't appear to be an issue in all fonts, but for the ones I tested, it seems to be in ones that have Figure Style options under the OpenType options (such as Proportional vs. Tabular, Lining vs. Old Style, etc.)

   1. Version: Adobe InDesign 19.3 (v. Adobe InDesign 18.5.2)
   2. Steps to reproduce the issues: Create a document that is length of 100 pages or more. Add a "current page marker" on the parent page. (I made an example on pages 208-209 in the attached documents. Apply a paragraph style for a folio that has a font that has options. (I used “Adelle” from the Adobe Fonts library for my examples.) It seems like anything above 3 digits, the third digit and beyond are distorted or don’t seem to be the correct Figure Style.
   3. Expected result: I expect to be able to control the Figure Style of an OpenType font within the paragraph style and not have this distorted character on the third digit and beyond in automated numbering – both the current page marker and the automated footnote reference.
   4. Actual result: Distorted digits anything the third digit or beyond, even when the OpenType > Figure Style settings are changed.
   5. I have attached 2 test files and a screenshot, one from 2023 where everything appears normal and the other from 2024 (see pages 208-209 in both docs for an example of the difference).

   I don't seem to be able to upload my test InDesign files -- so if somebody could please help I can send them to you.

10. 2024 lag

    InDesign 2024 is lagging a lot—there's a delay in response when clicking onto a text or content box to edit the content. Even moving from page to page (at typical or fast display) there's a lag.

11. Preferences: Type: Use of Typographer’s Quote reset to off

    1. Adobe InDesign 14.0.3
    2. Create or open a document with Use of Typographer’s Quote checkbox ticked. Copy/Paste text from a document (Word, TextEdit) into the InDesign document. Note that the resetting of the Preferences doesn't happen all the time, only sometimes and I haven't been able to narrow it down to a certain context.
    3. The pasted text should use Typographer’s Quote according to the Preferences.
    4. The quotes from that pasted text use straight quotes instead, and when opening the Preferences, the checkbox is now unticked.

    Note: I've encountered this bug in previous versions of InDesign from CS5 up to the current version I'm using (14.x).

12. Whenever I use psd files in the links the pdf export file becomes huge like 10x bigger than when I a flatted version

    I have a digital catalogue and in working with lots of psd in the links. To create a small pdf I have to instead of links the psd, to export to png and than put it in the indesign. This is a hassle when I have to edit the psd because i hav to take so many extra steps for a minor adjustment. Instead Indesign shoulde be handling the images conversion and flatening. And yes, I'm checking the export only appearce on the export.
    The app is up to date and recently I had to format my pc so reinstalling didnt solve it. Its been and issue i had for some time

13. InDesign v19.5: Data Merge Problems with Diacritical

    InDesign v19.5: Data Merge Problems with Diacritical

    I wanted to use "Data Merge" again after a while, but I found that it no longer works as it did in the previous version (v18). In the old version (v18), "Data Merge" worked correctly with diacritics, but in the current version (v19.5), it does not, and it's definitely not a font issue (I’ve tried all of them). The ".csv" file is exactly the same as the one used before, and when I use the old version, everything works as it should. The problem occurs with certain characters, such as "Š", "Č" and "Ř," which are used in my language, Czech. The CSV is exported from Excel (MS Office).

    I have not modified any preferences or settings in InDesign; everything is set to the default.

14. pdf import corrections

    Indesign 19,.5 Imac 2020. When there are many corrections in a file it would be great if after accepting the correction, the correction would be deleted from the list of corrections, because Indesign can become very slow with 700+ corrections. And whats the use of keeping it in the list after accepting the correction.

16. Deleting spreads takes many minutes

17. BUG: Word import: Styles

    InDesign 19.5 x64 (Win) 2024

    When importing Word files wrong styles are applied:

    1. with no frame selected a style is chosen (p.a. Style-A)
    2. click in a frame, selected Style is different (p.e. Style-B)
    3. Word is imported (formatting removed, local overrides kept) -> Text (even if cursor is within text formatted in Style-B) is formatted in Style-A

    This is bad p.e. when italics is needed as local override, and the wrong style is italics too (then evereything is italcs ...).

18. Keyboard shortcuts to resize assets suddenly stop working

    InDesign V19.5 on MacOS Sequoia 15.0.1.

    Keyboard shortcuts to resize assets on a spread stop working once a document has been open for a while. Shortcuts such as CMD+ALT+Click to resize container box and the asset within, while maintaining proportions, CMD+click to resize container, while maintaining proportions, don't work.

    The only fix I've found is to restart my Mac. Closing and reopening InDesign doesn't fix the issue.

    When sharing a review: On the review web page, there is no longer a possibility to search for text. This makes reviewing long documents with many pages nearly impossible. Reviewers have to manually go through all the pages to find the content that's relevant.

    Until around mid-2024, it was possible to use the browser's search function (CTRL+F). This has been disabled. Even if enforced (entering search through the browser's menu), it does not work.

    To me, having no possibility to search for text in a document that should be reviewed, sounds like a severe, obvious oversight and should be addressed immediately. I only waited a few weeks before posting this here because I thought this had to be a bug that would be fixed anyway.
