InDesign CC2018 – loss of Options from text frames when copy a frame from an older version
All the formattings of text frames, which I have entred in for example CC2017 or earlier, will not be transfered to CC2018.
This is scarry, and as I do not have any idea, I'll change back my work zu CC2017.

cmd+v not working in scripts
- InDesign 2015, 2017 and 2018 on Mac OS (only on Mac. Works on Windows)
- Run the sample script "ImageCatalog.jsx". When the save dialog opens create a new folder. Name the folder by pasting a text using cmd+v.
- Any copied text would be expected to be pasted to name the folder.
- Nothing happens. But if you right click and choose "Paste" it works fine.

glow
I had created a 1-up postcard for a proof in InDesign, and then placed it in a second InDesign document 3-up. When I exported it to PDF from the 3-up document using "Fiery Optimized" settings, the resulting PDF was missing all outer glow effects. Looking at the PDF, the outer glow on page one was on the "Sacramento Investor" logo on the lower left positions, and on page two, on that same logo, plus the text on top of all the property photos
I packaged the doc and links, which are attached. As part of that process, I created a…

open copy
Adobe InDesign CC v 13.0 - macOS 10.9 - 10.13
I feel like this was a previously fixed bug in an older version, but may well be back with the latest 2018 update.
After upgrading InDesign to v 13.0, we are now not longer able to open a copy of files in use, neither duplicate the file in Finder.
When we try to open a copy we get this error message: “Cannot open file [filename.indd]. The file [filename.indd] is incompatible with Adobe InDesign (Error code: 14).”
When we try to duplicate the file, we get this error message: “The operation…

This happens on both new InDesign CC 2018 and CC 2017. I'm running:

- InDesign CC 2017.1 (Build 12.1.0.56)
- macOS 10.12.5

I've post this here as well: https://forums.adobe.com/thread/2417538

Post it style note
A DTP program I used twenty years ago had a fantastic feature that has never been included in InDesign. At the bottom of the tools panel was a small area that when clicked and dragged off became a non-printing post-it note with the text active for immediate typing of a note.
It was really handy, as sometimes when doing a page layout you really want to note when you have say adjusted tracking, or indeed just a future reminder where for example you want to remind another designer to say edit an image etc.1 vote -
EPS saving as AI or PDF bug then printing in InDesign
Hi When saving an EPS file to either AI or PDF downloaded from a stock site I have had issues with both the on screen preview and print from InDesign. When I save it as an EPS again it appears to regain the proper appearance both on screen and in print. Is there a transparency issue when converting an EPS to AI or PDF?

cc library
InDesign 2018 as soon as its opened the CC Library panel pops up and starts flickering. If you try to do anything in ID it relocates the pointer to the library every few seconds. If you switch to a different program or browser other than ID it takes you back to ID within seconds to the library.
I've tried closing the panel but it just opens up again. I've restarted my machine a few times. Its always the same. It makes it pretty much unusable.

Disabling UI scaling for high PPI displays causes truncated descriptions in "Preferences"
Installed InDesign CC 2018; when disabling UI scaling for high PPI displays, and restarting.
When "Preferences" are launched, all options turn up with their descriptions truncated, and replaced with an ellipsis.
Two images are attached, when UI Scaling is disabled vs enabled.
This is happening on MS Surface Pro 3, Windows 8.1, screen resolution 2160 x 1440 px (max supported by Surface Pro) and all resolutions below.

Every time there's a new update I lose all my saved templates.
If I'm missing something I'd like to know. Otherwise, I'm tired of having to recreate these templates every time there's an update.
