Exported PNGs or JPEGs RGB Colors Slightly Different Versus Illustrator Export For Screens
So here is the situation and setup.
Illustrator File with Pantone Colors (Book LAB colors)
Color Settings are synced via Bridge (NA General Purpose)
Illustrator file is in CMYK ModeIn Illustrator File is exported to PNG (via Exported for Screens)
In InDesign the same Illustrator file is placed in InDesign and then Exported as PNG file.
When looking at the attached image the RGB values are slightly different most noticeably in the red. When looked at with the eyedropper in PS the CMYK values read as the same on both but the RGB is slightly different.
For example:

List Forms not working properly when exporting to interactive PDF in non latin lagunages.
I work for a translating company, the list forms items do not export as they should be when building an interactive PDF. Latin using languages are ok, but when doing forms with non latin fonts, I get the forms, full of dots instead of proper characters. I changed the font to ARIAL Unicode MS, which displays great everywhere else, except the list forms. Other Adobe fonts, wont work either. It impossible to know if the World ready Adobe composer is activated inside the form. The rest of the document is IN Adobe World Ready composer.
Only the first item is…1 vote -
Shift scroll Horizontal ctrl scroll zoom
On nearly every program I have ever used, Shift + scroll = horizontal scrolling, and Ctrl + scroll = zoom. I would like there to be a way to adjust this to make page navigation much faster and easier for me.

Visual ghosting on stage
Hello,
I have had some issues (possibly since the last update) with visual "ghosting" artifacts. Use to be, it would have been an issue with the refresh rate of a monitor, or not having the latest Nvidia graphics card update, but neither of these appears to be the issue.
I'm open to some recs to fix this issue. Please see the image for a clearer explanation of the problem.
And yes, when I move the stage/the issue, visibility does go back to normal.

Links palette issue
Hi there;
I'm encountering a bug with the "Links" palette. Specifically, for a long list of links, the "Link info" panel doesn't preview properly, but rather overlaps the main list of links. Similarly, if a link alphabetically appears towards the bottom of the list, it isn't possible to select it from the Links palette.
Hoping this can be fixed with the next INDD update?!

Khmer Line-Breaking Regression Bug
While much has been fixed, the current version of InDesign 2022 still line-breaks Khmer words/punctuation incorrectly (this used to work in InDesign 5.5 but has been broken since CS 6).
Here are some sample words/puncuation that break incorrectly (many are names):
យេស៊ូវ
អ៊ីស្រាអែល
គ្រីស្ទ
«...ទោះ
ជាម្ចាស់
អាន់ទីយ៉ូក
ៗ (this should stay with the previous word not break on to its own line)
អាកំណា
គ្រីស្ទបរិស័ទ
បន្សុស
ខគម្ពីរ
បូគោ
... (should stay together and stay with previous word like in English)
បូគោ
ឰយុកោEasiest way to fix this is don't break a line unless there is a zero-width space (U+200B) or a…

eyedropper tool not sampling correct color or images color.
Eye dropper tool has not been working in InDesign properly for weeks FIX YOUR ****. I cant take colors from images. IDK what it is doing specifically but it only seems like it is sampling text properties and solids not images. Its working perfectly fine in photoshop and Illustrator just not InDesign. Should not be encountering such a simple bug on a paid service

Layout Adjustment Moves Anchored Frames
Layout adjustment moves anchored frames vertically even when the anchor is set relative to the text baseline and the text baseline doesn't move.
***Worse still, the shifted frames also DO NOT SHOW AS OVERRIDDEN even though their position no longer matches the settings in the object style applied to the frame.

Cursor continually freezes, Indesign auto shortens swatches pane
Glitch happens at random intervals, but so frequently that it's becoming maddening. Right now it's happening every 30 seconds to a minute, seriously F'ng my workflow today.
M1 MacBook Pro, occurs whether I'm using my Wacom tablet (often I blame this first). It seemed to have happened after the last updated, along with an accompanying issue where I have to continually reset my workspace if I disconnect/connect to an external monitor. If I don't reset my workspace, Indesign refuses to show any tool panels.
See attached video.

Welcome screen has a trypophobia trigger image
The image in the top row, 2nd from the right, can be a visual trigger for people with trypophobia like myself. It is a small thing but something that can be easily fixed so I figured I'd write!

Why does ID now need new filetype with every yearly release?
I don't remember ID needing a new filetype with every release in the past. A (perhaps cynical) part of me says new filetypes are designed to incentivize users to upgrade. This drive for new filetypes every year seems especially capricious when fundamental new ID features are few and far between over the past 5+ years. (Ex: one of the top billed features last year was renaming Master pages to Parent pages...)
New filetypes with every release is a source of friction to my team, especially when several users work on a project and one or more suddenly find they can…

.idlk files not recognized/ignored when .indd files are in a Dropbox directory
InDesign 2023 v18.00
.idlk files are not recognized when working from a shared Dropbox folder. This issue appears to be very extensive and well documented. While I understand the many different use cases (synced/not synced, not connected to the internet, etc..) It would just make sense for InDesign to check for .idlk files within Dropbox directories and let Dropbox/Users figure out the potenetial for syncing errors and find a solution when those issues arise.This causes very frustrating issues for collaborative teams.

trados idml version
Hello!
We export the idml file from indesign 2022. We must later open the file in Trados for its translation and it doesn't let us because it identifies it as a cs4 file. With indesign 2021 it also happens, but not with previous versions, with which Trados opens them correctly. Can you help us?1 vote
