3. 2-9% CPU usage when application is in background/minimized - happens on multiple computers

   2-9% CPU usage when application is in background/minimized. This happens on multiple computers. Older machines have seen up to 30% in IDLE. My newer PC runs 2-3% even with only one document open.

   This is unsustainable both for PC resource use, energy efficiency, and usability.

   There is no GOOD reason for this.

   It has been an issue for multiple years now. Please fix!

4. share for review completely broken in ID and online

   Share for review is completely useless and does not work in the latest release on osX Tahoe. I can see the comments from clients listed in the panel, however they are not marked in the document and when clicked on them it does not show you where. So i have to open the comments in a browser (and its buggy even there!!!) and locate the reviews manuall.y. Also, when i update documents (also in AI), i always get a red popup saying that the file update has failed (although it does not fail and the changes are updated). Anyway, a horribly broken feature right now and im losing my mind over it.

5. [ID-4272075] Interactive PDF Buttons: Button bounding area expands after file conversion from older version to 21.0

   1. InDesign 2026 v21.0.1

   2. I've just verified and reproduced this interactive PDF button display bug by first confirming that several archived versions of the interactive PDF (created from archived InDesign Source files), all function perfectly and as expected. It is ONLY by opening one of those older, archived InDesign source file in the current 2026 v21.0.1 and exporting a new copy of that same Interactive PDF that the buttons all appear differently when clicked.

   3. The expected result is to have interactive buttons that look clean and functional when clicked.

   4. The actual result (only when exporting the Interactive PDF from the current version of InDesign, never before from previous versions), is that all the interactive buttons now show a black bounding box that surrounds and extends up above and beyond the boundaries of the buttons themselves. It's visual display bug specifically on buttons. This remains true even when the buttons DO NOT have any hover or click states assigned. It's a button element issue, not a visual state issue. (Although the Hover state has always been glitchy or "sticky" which is annoying, but not as bad as the black bounding box described here.

   5. Screenshot examples from the exported interactive PDF have been provided.

   Workaround:
   1. Export the test document to IDML and use the IDML to export to Interactive PDF
   2. Recreating the button entirely in InDesign 21.0 restores the correct clickable area. However, this is not ideal for users working with older templates containing many pre-existing buttons.

6. PDF conversion

   Still does not work with a simple remittance envelope we have - see attached screenshot. After the conversion, the entire document is black and all the fonts are missing. After every update of InDesign we try again and get the same results.

8. Copying/cutting a table causes InDesign 2026 to crash

   Cutting and pasting tables causes InDesign to crash. This is especially true if there are any interactive elements in the table. You will receive crash reports every single time it crashes while I finish my work.

9. Moving Pages calls for use of Absolute Page Number

   1. InDesign 21.0.1 x64 (on Windows 11)
   2. I want to move a page from a document where I have changed the Numbering & Section Options so that the document includes multiple pages with the same page number. I open the document that includes the page I want to move, and open the document which will receive that page. I select a page in the pages panel, right click, and select "Move Page." The Move Pages dialog box appears, and I select the document and location where I want the page to be moved and click OK.
   3. The highlighted page will be copied to the correct location in the destination document.
   4. Instead, I receive an error message asking me to identify the correct page using the absolute page number. In earlier versions of InDesign, if I tried to use the Move Pages dialog box by simply typing in a page number, it would ask me to define the page using the absolute page number, but as long as I had highlighted the page I wanted to move and then activated the Move Page function, InDesign would automatically identify the page I wanted to move without asking me to define the absolute page number.
   5. I have uploaded images of the dialog box and the error message.

10. Share for Review fails to update - InDesign 2026

    InDesign 2026 v21.0 (the latest update)

    Creating a new Share for Review link works without issue. However, updating an existing review link consistently triggers the error: “There was an error updating the artifact.” When this happens, the review document does not update. The only way to refresh the content is by generating a new review link, which unfortunately removes all previously added comments.

    This is not a new problem, it’s a recurring issue that has resurfaced for many users, seemingly starting again around late October. It’s extremely frustrating, especially since Share for Review has become an essential part of how we proof documents with our team and clients. Across our team of four, using slightly different setups, we all experience the same problem. At this point, the feature is practically unusable.

    Is there a plan to fix this and restore full functionality to Share for Review?

11. [ID-4265787]InDesign 20.4.0 and above freezes when connected with Enterprise VPN

    Impossible to work with the latest version of InDesign 20.5. The screen freezes after a few second work. Only "end task" on Task manager is closing the program. (Working on PC under Windows 11 Enterprise)
    Only solution in the meantime is to switch to Version 19.5.5.

12. MathML Rendering Error

    In InDesign v21.0, the updated Maths Expressions Panel automatically inserts mathvariant="normal" into the root <math> element after I edit an equation using the new panel. This behaviour does not occur until the equation is edited in version 21.0, but once it happens, the MathML rendering is altered incorrectly.

    Issue Details
    When I open and edit an existing MathML equation in the new Maths Expressions Panel (v21.0), InDesign injects mathvariant="normal" into the <math> tag upon saving.
    This overrides the default MathML behaviour and forces all <mi> elements to render upright (normal) instead of italic.

    • Manually deleting the attribute does not help—InDesign re-adds it every time I save or update the equation.
    • Choosing Italic under Typefaces Properties → Font Style further breaks MathML rules by causing <mn> and <mo> elements to become italic, which is incorrect.
    • The issue appears to originate from the new Font Style feature introduced in v21.0.

    Impact
    Once an equation is edited in version 21.0, its typography becomes incorrect. This affects mathematical accuracy, consistency, and the overall quality of my project’s typesetting.

    Requested Fix
    Please correct or remove the automatic insertion of mathvariant="normal" so MathML equations retain proper default styling—particularly the italicisation of <mi> tags—after editing.

14. [ID-4257735]One Frame Grid Remains Unchanged When Modifying Multiple Selected Frame Grids

    InDesign CS4 (v6) and Later

    When changing the “Number of Characters per Line” or “Number of Lines” for multiple selected frame grids, one of the frame grids always fails to update. This bug, first observed in CS4 (v6), remains unresolved.

    Steps to Reproduce:
    1. Select multiple frame grids.
    2. Go to the menu and choose “Object > Frame Grid Options...”
    3. Modify the “Number of Characters per Line” or “Number of Lines” settings.

    Result: Changes are not reflected in one of the frame grids. It appears that the frame grid with the smallest object ID does not get updated.

    Expected Result: All selected frame grids should reflect the changes.

15. When viewing an exported PDF images do not appear correctly

    I'm using InDesign 2026 version 21.0. These bugs are new after the latest update. We create primary 36+ page booklets with lots of text and linked files: Illustrator files (linked as .AI), JPG/PNG images, and PDFs. When creating a PDF using Adobe PDF preset for smallest file size some pages do not appear correctly. One example is a linked InDesign file with text and graphics where some of the text is missing (text missing bug.PDF). Another example images that appear fine in InDesign and in print but render incorrectly on the PDF, this is also a linked InDesign file (images rendering bug.PDF). Sometimes InDesign freezes when making the PDF and I have to end the program through task manager. Other times I'm able to successfully make the PDF by creating multiple PDFs for one document i.e.: pages 1-15, pages 16-25, pages 26-36, then merging the PDF pages after. This is a cumbersome work around.

    Before the latest update we had very few errors/crashes with creating PDF's in the exact same way. Please help!

    This is expected behavior and document on https://helpx.adobe.com/in/indesign/using/export-import-user-settings-indesign.html

17. Alert is shown on opening documents in InDesign(v19.4.0.63) - "This file is already open by another user or another application."

    After updating InDesign to V19.4, I'm now locked out of many of my previous design files. I'm receiving the error, "This file is already open by another user or another application. This file may be stored on a network server and cannot be opened until the other user closes it."

    I reinstalled V19.3 and can now access these old files but I would prefer to use the most up to date version if possible. happy to provide a sample if needed.

18. GPU Accelerated Preview Issues on Windows 11

    InDesign 2025 & 2026 (v21.0 & v20.5.1)
    PC running Windows 11 Pro
    CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D 16-Core Processor
    GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti
    Display: ASUS ProArt PA279CRV @3840x2160
    RAM: 64GB DDR5 @6000 MT/s
    Storage: Samsung SSD 9100 PRO 2TB

    There are mainly 3 issues, that have not improved with the new version:

    1. Animated zoom is broken; it's laggy, and does not zoom in on the actual point of focus where you click with your cursor, making it worse and slower to use than CPU Preview's regular zoom, and in many cases it literally zooms you in on a point outside the artboard and out of your page. The same issue was described in an older bug and was marked as "fixed" when in fact it wasn't. (https://indesign.uservoice.com/forums/601180-adobe-indesign-bugs/suggestions/50037261--id-4264855-issue-with-animated-zoom-in-gpu )

    2. Panning/using the hand tool while zoomed in on a page containing pictures, with "Display Performance" set to "High Quality Display", with GPU Accelerated Preview is slow and causes massive stutters compared to CPU Preview, its stuttering is very irregular it ends up causing eye strain and headaches after long use. The issue is not present with "Typical Display", but at that stage the performance is the same as CPU Preview so makes you wonder what's the point.

    3. When working on a text layout and adjusting the flow of the text, when the end of the text moves from the last page to the page before, GPU Preview sometimes keeps a ghost of the last page containing text, even though the page before is now showing the updated content. CPU Preview shows it correctly. It can only be fixed by entering some new text into the original "last" page forcing it to refresh the preview.

    The first two issues are constant and are the most critical, as they make InDesign quite frustrating to use, and make GPU acceleration completely useless.

    I couldn't add a video of #3 as the content of the pages was confidential, but will try to take a video when it happens again on a different document.

19. InDesign CC 2026 - Arrange windows does not use full screen area

    When using InDesign without the application frame ("Anwendungsrahmen" in the german version we use) active, opening multiple documents and trying to arrange them with any of the options in Windows > Arrange ("Fenster" > "Anordnen") the windows are arranged according to the deactivated/invisible application frame and not the full screen as in previous versions. Also, when the application frame is scaled to the full screen and then deactivated, the arranged windows keep a thin row on the bottom of the screen free (and overlap in the vertical center by this amount). Please see attached screens for visualization.

    1. InDesign Version: 21.0

    2. Steps to reproduce:

    3. Deactivate the application frame Window > Application frame ("Anwendungsrahmen")

    4. Create multiple documents (in this example 4 documents)

    5. Use the command Window > Arrange > "Neben-/Untereinander"

    6. Windows are arranged according to the deactivated/invisible application frame instead of the full screen area.

    7. Expected result:
       Windows arranged within the available screen area as in previous version (see attached screenshot "InDesign CC2025.png", this shows the correct behaviour in InDesign CC 2025)

    8. Actual result:
       Windows are arranged according to the deactivated/invisible application frame instead of the full screen area. Also, the bottom row overlaps the row above.

    9. Screenshots

20. PDF files being sent to the wrong print tray despite the correct print information being selected.

    Adobe products are sending PDF files to the wrong tray in the printer despite the settings being correct this is mostly happening in both InDesign 2024 and 2026, but it is also happening with Adobe Reader 2020 as well.
