  3. Document Window and Pasteboard Disappear

    When clicking and dragging to select objects or dragging an image into the document, the document window and pasteboard turn blank, so I can't see what I'm selecting or where the dropped object will go.

  5. Find and change transliterate

    The new feature that has been recently added is the transliterate tab in the find and change dialogue box. Instead of Hindi digits, farsi digits are there. Please correct this issue. Also it would be very useful to add and Bengali digits.

  7. InDesign 19.0.1 Crashes When Exporting Stories to InCopy

    I have just set up a new MacBook Pro running InDesign 19.0.1 on Sonoma (pre-installed). Every time I attempt to export .icml stories from a layout file to my SMB Synology share, the file crashes and InDesign quits. When a co-worker on Monterey does the same thing with the same file, the .icml stories export normally.

    I have tried exporting individual text frames rather than "export all stories" and got the same result. I've tried exporting the stories from a different local .indd file to my computer and got the same result.

    What else should I try? Reinstall InDesign?

  10. Insertion point with more than one text style range

    An insertion point can have more than one TextStyleRange, e.g.

    InsertionPoint.textStyleRanges.length // Result: 779

    These are the TextStyleRanges of the entire text (of the story) that follows the insertion point.

    Expected is one TextStyleRange for one InsertionPoint.

  11. Window Crop Issue

    If I use multiple Screens, Indesgin and Illustrator (but mainly Indesign) has a huge problem of making the connection between screens. When I return after a short coffee break and unlock my device, indesign jumped in between my screens. I am not able to move indesign around in any screen as the menu bar is completely cropped and disappeared in between screens.
    I can restart my computer and indesign multiple times but it does not change. Also deconnecting my screen does not help.

    I kindly ask you to fix this issue or to give a solution for a work around,…

  19. Browsing, Searching, and Activating fonts

    For the last long while I've been having trouble with fonts in indesign and I've heard that others have the same issues.

    Only the first time I open the fonts list after restarting indesign, can I scroll through it with my arrow keys. After that, it doesn't work and therefore, it's very difficult to go through my fonts.

    Additionally, when I try typing in to the fonts bar to search for a font, it often doesn't pull up the font, as though it's not installed, when I find it if I scroll through the list.

    Also, if I try to…
