Color Theme Tool not working after upgrade to InDesign CC 14.0
Hi, this may not actually be a bug and perhaps more of a settings issue - but after upgrading to 14.0 the Color Theme "eyedropper" tool does not seem to be working. The tool selects/highlights properly, palette displays correctly - but the theme elements do not copy over. Any help appreciated as we create / update fairly complex and text-heavy docs on a daily basis.

pdf comment
PDF comments are made in an export from a book document from InDesign 2019.
When importing the comments in the different InDesign files from the book, the comments from the previous book files appear somewhere between the comments of the current book file and are not marked as unmapped comments.1 vote -
layers panel disappearing
My layers panel keeps disappearing - I go to the "Window" menu and open it up, do what I need to do and next time I go to use the layers panel - which I haven't closed - it has closed again... I need to keep revisiting the "Windows" menu every time I want to use it.

Indesign 2018 crashes when searching for column break (~M) – with Find/Change dialog box or via script. It works for me with CC 2017. Not yet tested with CC2019.

convert
Click "convert" to open this document..... doesn't do anything!!
The error message then tells you "You are not currently signed in to the
CC (which I already am). Please go to Help- > Sign In and enter your Adobe ID. Restart InDesign, then try opening the document again."Performing this action does nothing, the error never goes away, you just go in circles.
1 voteIt looks like InDesign is not recognizing that you are already signed in.
Please try signing out from InDesign once. Quit and relaunch InDesign. Also you could try signing out from Creative Cloud App and sign back in to see if the issue goes away.Adobe InDesign team

installed font missing
InDesign 13.0.1 on macOS 10.12.6
One installed font from a family of 6 suddenly started showing as not found. Frutiger LT Pro 67 Bold Condensed was correctly showing, now not.
I have re-installed InDesign twice, reinstalled the font, and rebooted several times. Font is correctly showing still in Illustrator and Photoshop.
This is impacting client files and while I have a workaround, I am concerned the problem will occur with other fonts where I don't have a viable solution. (I have another foundry version of that particular font.)
Screen shots attached.
many thanks

beim sRGB jpg export ist Adobe RGB Profil eingebettet
Beim Export eines sRGB-JPG's aus InDesign 2019 ist in dem Foto dann Adobe RGB-Farbraum eingebettet.
Die Farben sind eigentlich korrekt (entsprechen dem sRGB-Farbraum), aber es ist eben fälschlicherweise das Adobe RGB-Etikett eingebettet, so dass die Farben dann falsch interpretiert werden.1 vote -
World-Ready Composer Is messing up the kerning in Latin fonts
I have reported a variation of this—back with CS6—but it seems not to have been fixed. I assume it's a bug, but if someone can enlighten me about what I might be doing wrong and how I can fix this, I'd appreciate it.
I often work on books that include Arabic and Hebrew words and phrases in the middle of English text. They only way to get the Arabic ligatures to form is to use one of the World Ready composers. When I do that, though, the kerning around some English characters often—but not always—is affected. I have tried turning…

Hyperlinks between documents in a book file don't work
I am producing an interactive pdf with hyperlinks to move between pages within the pdf.
I am doing this using a book file containing 22 indesign documents however some of the links do not work.
All of the hyperlinks within each document work fine but any that link between the documents just send you to the first page in the book and not to the specified page.
I am using InDesign CC 13.0.1 on Mac OS High Sierra 10.13.3
I have produced interactive pdfs in this way before without any issues so this has become broken in one of the…

GREP "Any Double Quotation Marks" wildcard not working as expected
Version: CC (14.0.1.209)
While using InDesign's Find/Change GREP feature:
The following GREP query wont find the matching string even if it exists in the document: (Any White Space) followed by (Any Double Quotation Marks) followed by (Any Uppercase Letter)
\s"[A-Z]
This should find any white space followed by any double quotation mark followed by any uppercase letter, however it shows no match.
The following GREP searches will work, but when combined they do not work:
\s" will find the white space and the double quotation mark
"[A-Z] will find the double quotation mark and any uppercase letter
It seems to…

Content-Aware Fit-Problem with INDD CC2019, 14.0.1
I had images to link again after receiving a layout from a customer. In some cases, I had massive changes, different sections of images, with the new option activated. I'm not shure about the reason, but if I don't activate the automatic fit, the picture sections are correct in the same layout with the same images.All the best
