Placed illustrator .ai color dodge layers in Indesign don't display/print correctly
Placing .ai stock files which have soft 'color dodge' layer highlights display and print as hard masks in Indesign. The solution I've found is re-saving the file as an EPS. Attached is a sample image (.ai on left, .eps on right).

text
I am having text problems when regular text is near an image and the text which is within the boundary box of the image then text prints out bold. It does not appear bold on screen and the font is definetly regular but ive done some test and where the boudnary image box over hangs into text it then prints out bold mid word or wherever the image boudnary box is. This happens on psd images which have been deppetched and have no background.

Menus and dialog boxes are off
Using Windows 10, menus are off by 1. For example when hovering "Edit" the menu for "File" displays, Layout displays Edit, and so on.
Also when clicking create new document, the dialog is blown up and does not work other than the "X" to close out.

"Preview images" not updated or created in certain circumstances
Description: The previews are not updated in the following cases:
- When the file is saved in IDML file format (you need to save in in INDD format before)
- When the saving options are changed (under "Preferences > File handling") and the file is saved. You need to save the file with another name or make changes in order to have InDesign updating the previews.
Basically, from our tests, the preview images are only generated when the file is changed and saved in INDD format.

Clippingpath inset
I don't really know if its a bug or a feature:
If I set an inset for a clippingpath (made in Photoshop) by for example 3mm, it sets the inset based on the scaling of the image. Means: if my image is scaled by 50% the inset will only be 1,5mm. As I have a document with multiple scale ratios it is not possible to maintain a coherent inset amount.
I use the clipping-path frame to generate a cutting contours for stickers which all have to have a specific inset to avoid "blank streaks".

Cannot mirror a footer
I am taking an InDesign class and in one of the steps in the book it says, Use the selection tool, select the footer, hold down the Alt key, and drag the text frame to the right master page so that it snaps to the guides, mirroring the left master page.
I have NO finger dexterity so cannot hold down multiple buttons is there a way to do the above without holding down the keys?

Fill with Placeholder Text doesn’t automatically change the font and characters for that language when holding ⌘ and choosing that from menu
InDesign CC 2018 on macOS Mojave public Beta,
when holding down ⌘ key and choose Type-> fill w place holder text, there’s a pop up menu that you can choose which language you want to fill in, and it did fill with placeholder text, However it didn’t fill in text with that language and choosing a font that suits that language, or even ragged left if it’s Arabian language.1 voteThank you for reporting the issue.
I need more inputs from you to get to the bottom of the issue.Please confirm if the issue happens only with Mojave. Was it working fine before upgrading to Mojave?
Are CMD/opt keys working fine in other workflows?
Regards,

Tagged Text file import randomly places URLs throughout text
I can't import an InDesign Tagged Text file without getting randomly inserted footnote URLs placed throughout the text and all footnote links being broken.
Since I'm working on a book and have hundreds of footnotes, I thought AITT would be my best option for backing up and recovering chapter text.

Data merge is not working as it was previously or as described in Help for Windows 10 - it works fine on Mac Book Pro - High Sierra... see attached images... on Windows it creates individual pages for each mail label instead of multiple instances of the text field on the same page... please repair... I have used this feature many times in the past - it is not working as expected.

can't load paragraph styles from another document
Potential bug in InDesign CC version 13.1:
Open a book, select a document from the list, add a paragraph style, and save. Open another document and attempt to load paragraph styles from first document.
Expect new paragraph styles to be added to the second document.
Actual result, new paragraph styles are not even listed in the dialog.

paste illustrator path
Copy/pasting a stroked path from Illustrator works OK only if the stroke is centred on the path.
If the stroke is set in Illustrator to align with inside or outside of path, inDesign pastes a closed shape. Means to get an accurate path you have to changed the stoke alignment in Illustrator, then copy/paste, then change the stroke alignment back in inDesign...

printer
InDesign fails to print on networked printer.
Installed HP OfficeJet 6958 using HP "Wizard" to download drivers and install.
Printer is installed over wireless network (connected through router).Same error occurred when installing Canon iP110 using downloaded installer (it installed as Canon iP110 Series WS) (But CAN print to Canon iP110 installed through "add printer")
All other applications print fine, including PhotoShop and Acrobat.
InDesign goes through print process (window pops up to show pages being processed), but does not print. File does not appear in printer queue.
This occurs with all documents - graphics, non-graphics, etc.
