Share for Review has ISSUES
I have been using the Share for Review feature for almost two years now for my employer to review documents that I am creating for them. I use it almost daily and never had any issues until the updates that came a month or two ago.
Since the Share for Review feature was updated I can...
No longer copy text from the comments that are made to paste into my document. This is troublesome because I am generally laying out curriculum that has been written and there is constant text edits being made during our review process, so I was…

Updating in InDesign does not work with add-in software.
Updating in InDesign does not work with add-in software. This is very inconvenient as the system is updated once a year. The high cost of add-in software makes it difficult to purchase add-in software frequently. When updating InDesign, please take care to ensure that the old add-in software can be used. I am having a very difficult time. I demand improvement.

Text Anchors For Hyperlinking Keep Changing To Different Anchors
After manually changing every single text anchor back to the proper destination and saving, the text anchors have now changed to different locations or have been removed completely. This is a huge bug that has caused me to waste a week of time.

Version 19.0 does not remember the document path for Save or Exporting to PDF
Since upgrading to v19, it does not default to the path of the original opened document when saving, and Export to a PDF file does not default to the directory of the InDesign document.
The default is you Documents folder.
This is not the first time an upgrade has caused this behavior.
PLEASE fix this !2 votesWhen we update from InDesign 18.5 to InDesign 19.0, the conversion of documents happen. The document is opened and the user needs to save it. We have to save the document and the same folder from where 18.5 document is opened will be seen. For export workflow without saving the document, export will point to Documents folder.

integrate adobe express templates in software.
Adobe Express is an amazing online platform with tons of inspiration and templates. Being able to use existing templates as a prompt designer in inDesign (and other Adobe Software) would be a game changer to speed up production time during slumps.

Optical margin
Optical margin behaves oddly in InDesign 19.0. I've attached a screen recording showing this behavior:
This is a file that had been created in a previous version of ID—probably 13 or so—and has handled migration to subsequent versions gracefully. However, when I opened it in 19 and attempted to edit some text, the optical margin in that paragraph behaves strangely, turning itself off on certain lines.
Deactivating and reactivating optical margin does not correct it. Some adjustment is made, but not enough.
I haven't been able to reproduce this behavior in text blocks created in 19, so it appears to…

Logical bug: font weight change to bold and back
System: ID version 17.4.2 on Windows 10.
Problem: some fonts have weights like "Light", next to Regular and Bold. If a text is set to weight Light and you change to Bold by Ctrl+Shift+B, the text becomes bold. When changing it back, it doesn't become Light, but Regular. The logic would be to check if there is a paragraph style applied and what's its default weight and use this when "unbolding".2 votes -

3. execute datamergeActual result:
All QR-codes are black.Expected result:
To set the color of the QR-code placeholder the same as a normal QR-code, and for the QR-codes to be colored after the merging.MacOS…

Can't export pdf from InDesign then InDesign closes
I can't export a pdf from InDesign, then InDesign itself closes (no crash report, even though I changed the setting so I can see one). This issue has only started today (18 December); the last time I exported a pdf was 4 days ago and it was fine. I'm using Windows Pro 10, have updated InDesign to the latest version, restarted the computer and tried various settings. Please help! I have a client waiting for the document and I can't deliver it. With thanks.

Imported PDF comments on graphics transferred to text on page
- InDesign 19.0
- Add Acrobat comments to placed Illustrator graphics in an exported PDF, then import the PDF to PDF Comments in the source InDesign document.
- One would expect a warning dialog or just unmapped comments in InDesign.
- Instead, InDesign tries to map the comments elsewhere on the page.
- Screenshot shows the example I encountered with strikethrough markup. Instead of the % signs in the graphic, InDesign wants me to delete random letters and spaces in the text.

Properties panel change - using tab for editing page size
Currently, in the Properties Panel, if you change the Width of a document and press Tab it heads to the page count (Pages) input box. It would be very helpful if it tabbed into the height box directly after typing into the Width box.
I'm consistently adding a large number of pages to the document instead of editing the Height directly after the Width when using Tab - which is not logical.

Eyedropper tool doesn't work when InDesign is on 2nd monitor
I'm using a 2nd monitor attached to my laptop. When InDesign is on the 2nd monitor, the eyedropper tool cannot select any colors, but if all I do is move InDesign to my laptop's screen (the main screen), then the eyedropper works again. Version 19.0.1 on Windows 11.

Indesing 2024: Opentype Superscript not working for Endnote Markers
Indesign 2024:
Opentype Superscripts don’t apply to endnote marker via character styleWhen working with end- or footnotes, instead of using the default settings, I usually create specific character styles for the markers in the text.
In these settings, I use the typeface’s native opentype settings to define a superscript number.In the latest version 19.0.1, I can define all these features in a character style and it works when applying to a number, but the character style can’t be applied to an endnote marker (it however works with a footnote marker).
This is a very annoying bug. I can't…

Share for review comments moved after file update
Comments are no longer in the correct position after update to INDD file.... I entered a few line returns and replaced a space with a non-breaking space after a few words, going manually through the search and replace. Going backwards with the edits doesn't help.
