2. Input Options for Place aren't remembered

   When I go to place a page from a pdf into an indesign document, the selection is set to transparent. I uncheck transparent, but I have to do that again each time I place a new page. The crop options don't stay either. Can't this be remembered?

3. Indesign file shows as modified upon opening a page with placed PNGs

   1. InDesign 19.0.1
   2. Steps to reproduce: open an InDesign file with a placed PNG.
   3. Expected result: file opens, no asterisk appearing next to file name.
   4. Actual result: file opens, PNG re-renders in high quality, asterisk suddenly appears next to file name.

   As of this morning, every time I open a file that has placed PNGs, InDesign flags the document as modified, with the asterisk and asks me if I want to save the document before closing, even I made zero edits. To give even more credence, it only happens when I navigate to a page that has a linked PNG file in it. If I open a file and there are no PNGs on the page, no asterisk (JPGs and other placed graphics are just fine). The minute I "page down" and hit a page that has a placed PNG, it "redraws/re-renders" the PNG (I have high quality previews turned on, and when I get to those pages, the PNGs look a little low-res at first; you can see the dark blue progress bar at the bottom appear as it redraws the preview and then the image looks better once the high quality preview is finished drawing) and then, BAM, asterisk appears. Nothing was modified other than InDesign redrawing/updating the preview.

   I found some older forum topics and a previous bug report from 2018 (IIRC) in which that very thing was being investigated, which is what led me to figure out if that was the culprit for me, as well. It does appear to be so.

5. [Scripting] Document.findObject() incorrectly targets activeDocument

   System: Indesign 18.4, MacOS 13.4.1

   To reproduce:
   1. Open two documents, each with a filled frame 100% tint.
   2. Run attached script "findObject bug.js"
   3. Note the console output.
   4. Refer to this forum post for notes and commentary.

   Expected result:
   doc.findObject() will return found items from both open documents.

   Actual result:
   doc.findObject() returns only items from active document.

   Note that using app.findObject() is not a viable workaround in some cases, such as the issue in this post.

6. Missing glyphs in a Right-to-Left Paragraph direction

   1. InDesign Middle Eastern Version 18.4.0.56

   2. Steps to reproduce the issues:
      a. In Preferences>Composition>Highlight, turn on Highlight for missing glyphs.
      b. Type in a text box open and closing parenthesis.
      c. Toggle between Right-to-Left and Left-to-Right Paragraph direction.

   3. Expected result: Missing glyphs should not be affected by paragraph direction.

   4. Actual result: When the direction becomes Right-to-Left the parenthesis are highlights as missing glyphs.

   Additional Information:
   If you type one Hebrew letter before and after the parenthesis, the parenthesis will be highlighted with missing glyphs also on Left to Right Paragraph direction.

   I tried with various fonts, all behave the same. Today was the first time I noticed it. It happened with a document that I edit all the time (and also a new one I created to test it) when I selected a different paragraph style. I then got a message that there are missing glyphs. I turned on the highlight option and suddenly I notices that all my parenthesis are highlighted in yellow for missing glyphs. I believe it is a bug of the latest version.

10. Page tool causes layout shifts on parent pages

    When the Page Tool is used to resize parent (master) pages, unwanted shifts of page items may occur. These can occur directly in the document or also after an IDML export. Whereby with the IDML export the order of the sample pages plays a role

    Concrete example: When the right bottom corner of the Page Tool is selected and the page size is changed, a position mismatch occurs on the inherited master page.

    It is expected that on master pages of the same size the position of objects and inherited object is the same.

    This does not occur if the upper left corner of the Page tool is used when resizing.

    You can see this also in the different matixes of the inner coordinate system of the master pages.

    Resize master page in UI – top left corner selected:
    app.activeDocument.masterSpreads[0].pages[0].resolve(AnchorPoint.TOPLEFTANCHOR,CoordinateSpaces.INNER_COORDINATES)[0];
    › 0.0

    Resize master page in UI – bottom right corner selected:
    app.activeDocument.masterSpreads[0].pages[0].resolve(AnchorPoint.TOPLEFTANCHOR,CoordinateSpaces.INNER_COORDINATES)[0];
    › 28.3464566929137.48.1889763764252

    After the IDML export, guides are also partially displaced. See attached screenshots. Whereby here also the order of the sample pages in the page panel plays a role, thus:

    Page Panel

    A-Master Page
    B-Master Page

    or

    B-Master Page
    A-Master Page

11. InDesign incorrect font.version when SUBSTITUED

    In an InDesign document when a font.status is SUBSTITUED, both the xmpTPg:Fonts/Resource/stFnt:versionString and also font.version property show the value of the font which is used by InDesign for the substitute font, and not the original (now missing) font version.

    As anyone who has worked with font purchasing knows, the font version is extremely important. Both because of licensing reasons (previously purchased font licenses for font versions may need to be repurchased with newer versions), and also because even in a font produced by the same foundry or designer, a minor version change can include optical differences, spacing differences causing text reflow, overset text and glyph errors.

    Here's an example

    1) Open the attached document into Adobe InDesign
    2) In the top dropdown menu, go to Type > Find/Replace Fonts
    3) In the Find/Replace Fonts listing there is only one font and it is missing/substituted, SharpGroteskBook22
    4) In the Find/Replace Fonts listing for the font in the “More Info” area the version is correctly shown as “Version 1.003”
    5) However, when showing the properties of this font in Visual Studio Code Adobe Extendscript debugger the font.version for this font is incorrectly shown as: "version: 17.0d1e1" (see screenshot)
    6) Also when viewing the metadata for the document in the File > File Info > Raw fonts xmpTPg:Fonts object, the versionString is incorrectly shown as “SharpGroteskBook2217.0d1e1” (see screenshot)

    I am considering this behavior to be a bug.

    In my opinion there is no value which is gained from InDesign having the font.version of a totally different font which is only being used to substitute a font which is not found.

    Why does the font.version property not continue to return the value of the font when it was INSTALLED?

    The data is not entirely missing. There is a location in InDesign which contains the accurate font version for a font which is font.status = SUBSTITUTED, and that is in the InDesign UI Fonts > Find/Replace Fonts menu, More Info area. I need a way to be able to retrieve that accurate data via scripting.

    InDesign and InDesign Server versions 2023, 2022, 2020 etc.

    In an InDesign document when a font.status is SUBSTITUED, both the xmpTPg:Fonts/Resource/stFnt:versionString and also font.version property show the value of the font which is used by InDesign for the substitute font, and not the original (now missing) font version.

12. interactive pdf export hangs forever

14. Share for Review is very buggy

    In InDesign lately when I Share for Review the following things happen often:
    1. InDesign thinks that the document I've shared (and for which I've received feedback) is NOT shared. I know it is.
    2. I can no longer highlight a comment and copy it to paste it into the actual document.
    3. When I click on a comment it will take me to a page/spread but there's no pin/highlighted text/etc. to inform me where on the spread the change needs to be implemented.
    4. I get a message that InDesign "cannot load comments" no matter how many times or different points in the day I click on "Retry."

    1. 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 copying 75% of my comments and can no longer do that. Me having to type out their changes generally results in further problems and changes that need to be made.

    2. The comments they are making if they are highlighting specific words to remove/edit are not displaying correctly INSIDE InDesign. If I view the comments through the web, they will display correctly.
       I.E. I was just editing a paragraph where they were adding paragraph breaks. In InDesign, it highlighted half of a word in the middle of a sentence and the comment said "add paragraph break here". I knew that couldn't be right, so I viewed it on the web and the real comment was on a completely different sentence. When comments are not highlighting the right words or displaying correctly in InDesign, everyone is getting confused and it is further complicating our review and editing process.

    3. When I go to update my link after making requested edits on my file, it takes FOREVER. It used to update in seconds, and now I will get a spinning wheel for 10+ minutes. This is super annoying and delays all of my process for absolutely no reason.

    PLEASE FIX THESE ISSUES. It's so frustrating when it's something I use every day and it used to work completely fine until it was "updated".
