1. Output to PDF removes bleed

   Summary: Output to PDF removed bleed

   Details:

   I laid out a book in Indesign using the 'Book' feature, with several similar sections or documents linked as a 'Book'. Each document based on the same original so all had same settings.

   I needed to output to PDF for the printer, Mixam UK. I downloaded the printer's settings, which include: output to single pages, bleed with no marks, with 'use document bleed' checked.

   I had set up the documents in Indesign in spreads with 3mm bleed as usual from the start. When looking at the output settings BEFORE output, I could see it still said 'use document settings' and showed 3mm bleed all round. See attached screenshot.

   I then output the book (Export Book to PDF) to single page PDF and uploaded to printer's website.

   I did not notice the document in fact had ZERO BLEED. The printer alerted me. I went back and output again. This time I looked more carefully and saw that 'use document bleed' was still ticked (checked), but it had reset to 0mm. I think it does it at the point of exporting the whole 'Book'.

   Workaround: I unticked 'use document bleed' and changed the bleed manually in that box to 3mm. Problem solved. 

   I see that a similar issue has been noted by Adobe but one suggested workaround is to export as single pages, link below. But I was using single pages so that is NOT the solution. Something is going wrong with 'use document settings', perhaps because it was a Book and not a single doc. (I did check each Indesign document is set up with 3mm bleed - yes they are.)

   https://helpx.adobe.com/indesign/kb/bleed-settings-incorrect-export-pdf.html?x-product

   I'm working on a Mac running OS 12.6 and Adobe Indesign 2023 on subscription.

   Anyway hope you can work on this and provide a fix or announcement so that other people don't send off their work without bleed.

   Of course the fact the printer demands a bleed without marks is making it harder for me as customer to check I've got bleed in my PDF! That bit is not your problem!

   Side note: this window for reporting bugs is too small! It's hard to see what I've already said or edit it.

   Thank you.

2. "GREP Load Find with selected text" is incomplete on macOS

   version: any OS: any macOS
   Edit menu > Keyboard Shortcuts > Text and Tables > “GREP Load Find with selected text” also “GREP Load Find and Find Next instance”

   If the selected text contains meta characters that are escaped with a backslash, such as "End of Paragraph" (\r) or tab characters (\t), they are all captured as ¥r and ¥t.
   I’m forced to retype the ¥ into a \ before starting the search.
   On Windows, it works without retyping.

   “Forced line break" (\n) is not a problem as a function, but the display is corrupted, which makes me uneasy.

   It is a pity because it is a very useful function.

   Windowsでは再入力を必要とせず動作した。

   「強制改行」（\n）は機能としては問題ないが、表示が崩れており不安である。

3. Portuguese from Portugal

   The Portuguese language originated in Portugal.
   That being said, the Portuguese Dictionary from Portugal implemented in InDesign should align with the native language. In fact, there are numerous supposed errors detected by Dynamic Spelling.
   InDesign insists on not accepting words like "Económico" or "prémios," as it considers them to be mistakes, given that in Brazilian Portuguese, which is a variant of the Portuguese language, they are not written this way. It's about time they fix this issue.
   Thank you.

4. Vector graphics distorted and broken - Cause unkown

   I don't know what prior action or command let to this bug but almost all my Vector graphics were suddenly distorted and broken. Some Small circles changed size and I couldn't scale in down anymore. See pictures. Exportet pdf files show the same distorted graphics.

7. Inset spacing no longer working after re-installing InDesign 2025

   I re-installed InDesign 2025 because some windows were blank ('Text Wrap', 'Paragraph' & 'Colour'). It solved that issue but developed a new issue - it wouldn't save. So I re-installed again without keeping any settings/preferences, this time it developed a new issue - Inset spacing no longer works.
   What is going on?

8. Text wrap - select subject - cancelling progress causes crash

   Clicking an image/object, choosing wrap around object shape and then type: Select subject will bring up the progress bar whilst it thinks about it. If you choose to cancel the progress then indesign crashes without an error code or crash dialogue.

   Have tried on 2024/2025 windows 10 and 11 and bug persists.

11. Publish Online: if forbidden character in the document name, the name has to be filled in again

    To me it’s okay that “special characters” are not allowed in the title of a "publish Online" document.

    But if a user gets this message, his/her title is completely deleted and he/she has to fill out the title again. Although there’s maybe only one forbidden character in it.

    Annoying. Any chance to change this?

12. Missing character in CentSchbook CE font in InDesign2025

    Yesterday, while working in Indesign 2025, white spaces appeared in the imported text where the letter "r" should be - one character suddenly disappeared! Even in the font set there is a white space instead (see picture). I tried this set in Word and it continues to appear there. It also appears when I try it in the old version of Indesign CS4. Not here in ID2025. However, about two days ago I was already creating documents in ID2025 with this font set and there was no problem. This is a current problem that I need to resolve immediately. Thanks for the feedback.

13. Brush Strokes

    Strokes should be more variable, like in Illustrator. I miss brush strokes. I'd like to create some stroke styles myself. For some Corporate Designs it is crucial to have.

14. Unable to select multiple objects when hidden spreads are in document

    InDesign version: 20.1

    There seems to be a bug that occurs when there are hidden spreads in the document, where you cannot click and drag to select items on a visible spread. Also when you copy content from one spread to another it doesn't transfer to the current selected page. See below for my experience:

    Steps to reproduce issue (part 1):
    1. create a document with multiple pages (e.g., 26 pages).
    2. Hide some spreads throughout document. (e.g., page 1, page 5, pages 20-23, etc).
    3. Attempt to select multiple objects by clicking and dragging.

    Expected result: objects selected!
    Actual result: nothing selected! (Note, individual objects can be selected one at a time by pressing shift+click, or everything on the page can be selected by pressing Cmd+A. It is only click and drag to select that doesn't work).

    Steps to reproduce issue (part 2):
    4. Attempt to copy content from one page to another by pressing Shift+Cmd+Alt+V.

    Expected result: Content copies onto the current selected page into the exact location as source page.
    Actual result: Content copies onto a completely different page.

    SOLUTION - Move all hidden pages to end of document. Then selection and copy/paste will work as expected.

16. quote mark position in RTL paragraph when Arabic and English text mixed and line break

    InDesign 20.2 (ME)

    In a paragraph where there is text contained within opening and closing quote marks and that text has a mixture of Arabic and English words, if that text happens to be at the end of a line and automatically flows to the next line then the positions of the quote marks reverses and are incorrect. If I force a line beak then it fixes itself, but it leaves me with text in one line that is shorter than it should be.

    This problem also appeared a few versions back, can't recall exactly when, a year or more I think, but then seemed to be resolved in a later update.

    PDF attached to show the problem (InDesign file can't be attached for some reason?)

18. Linhas

    Gostaria que o indesign pudesse numerar linhas/paragrafos através da janela de estilos assim como tem os marcadores, e podendo definir de quantas em quantas linhas ele vá numerar, Acho que não seria algo difícil de fazer.

19. Data merge problem - InDesign does not load CSV file with accented symbols

    If in InDesign 19.0 I use the CSV format with the East Europe character set in the data merge, then I can merge data with Czech accents without any problems. However, in Version 19.4 and above, I cannot do this. I have not been able to solve the problem and the data loaded has missing symbols. The only solution I have found so far is to install InDesign version 19.0, where the data merge works correctly.

20. Page Tool buggy with Alternate Layouts

    Create a new document,
    in Pages-panel insert some pages,
    in Pages-panel create alternate Layout from Pages.

    To see bug, select the Page Tool and try to select pages with the Page Tool in the document window. Or scroll around the document and select pages. The problem: it will always jump to first page of the none-alternate layout.
