1. Form elements are not exported correctly into PDF and fail Acrobat accessibility checker

   When I try to produce an accessible PDF form from InDesign, all of the form elements fail Acrobat accessibility checker. In my case, I have checkboxes and text fields.

   For example when looking into a check box element in Acrobat, the text label gets a <Section> and a child <P> tag and the actual form element a separate <form> tag (including the OBJR). How can this be?

   Using MacOS Monterey 12.2, InDesign 2022 version 17.3

2. arbeitsbereich erweitert

   Hallo,

   leider habe ich im Indesign CC, aktuelle Version auf Win10 - 64 Bit, immer wieder das Problem dass Indesign beim Neustart bzw. Start einer bestehenden Indesign-Datei keinen Arbeitsbereich lädt.
   Wie kann eine Einstellung treffen dass der Arbeitsbereich (z.B. Erweitert) automatisch mit jedem Start von Indesign oder Öffnen einer bestehenden Indesign Datei geladen wird.

3. Turning a shape into a frame

   It's easy enough to create a frame inside InDesign and drop in an image. I would however like to be able to bring in my own shape already made, turn it into a frame and drop in an image. I reached out to support. They told me I needed to put my png shape into Illustrator for it to work. We tried it together and it still didn't work. We came to the conclusion that this should be a new feature.

5. Bug: Find/replace fonts doesn't work on hidden conditional text

   Version: Indesign 17.x
   Problem: when opening a document that reports a missing fonts, replacing all instance with "Replace all" buttons might not work or not replace all when the text is conditional and currently hidden.
   It's understandable that "Find first" cannot work on hidden text, because that would mean to reveal it, but "Replace" all wouldn't jump to any text part in the document, so it should work.

7. Paste without formatting option disappeared, CTRL+Shift+V not working

   There was previously an option to Paste with Formatting and Paste Without Formatting, and after recent updates, the options have disappeared and paste functioning is working incorrectly. I used both of these functions for various reasons, and would greatly appreciate it coming back! I could use CTRL+Shift+V to paste without formatting, or, if I clicked into a text box and right clicked, there were for options: Cut | Copy | Paste | Paste Without Formatting. Now, only the first three appear as options and I've lost the fourth function. There are times when I WANT to paste with formatting, though mostly I paste without formatting. Now, I don't see a Right-Click menu option for "paste without formatting" and even using CTRL+Shift+V is not working. Now, the default paste seems to be "without formatting" except even then, it's pasting with the incorrect formatting - not retaining the original settings from Word, nor adopting the settings I'm pasting into. This is a significant in-efficiency as I'm having to redo paragraph styles for all paragraphs, instead of it overlaying the text I want to replace and maintaining the InDesign paragraph styles I had with the previous text.

   I'm in v17.2.1; recently upgraded to Windows 11 also.

8. loading TOC-styles between various Indesign-files

   InDesign version 16.4

   When loading a newly created TOC-style from one InDesign-file to an other file, it copies more than just the possible TOC-styles. I loaded the TOC-styles of an InDesign-file with a smaller font and spacing and the load copied these other settings as well.
   It seems that the 'Load TOC-styles' loads all available styles, including Paragraph- and Character-styles.
   The selection-list that is available when loading Paragraph-styles and/or Character-styles is also missing.
   This makes it impossible to load TOC-styles between different InDesign-files which use the same Paragraph-style names.

9. [ID-4208669]QR Code Generator Problems with Special Characters in vCards

   In the actual version of indesign (16.0) there is still an issue with internal generated vCard-QR-Code scanned by an iphone.

   In germany there are special Characters called "Umlaute" (ü, ö, ä) or the "sharp s" (ß). If these characters are used in an vCard generated within the buildin function from indesign, they are replaced with other symbols on the iPhone QR-Code-Camera Reader.

   I think this is only a Problem of the used vCard-Version. I think indesign uses Version 2.1 if you would just use Version 3.0 this issue does not appear.

   please see attached one example

   Kind regards from germany

10. Default underline position misinterprets font’s specification

    InDesign interprets the underline position as the center of the line (from which the "thickness" extends outward), whereas the OpenType spec calls for it to be the top of the line (from which the thickness extends downward). This causes inconsistencies with other application’s interpretation of the same font’s metadata.

    See here:
    https://docs.microsoft.com/de-de/typography/opentype/spec/post#header

    Quote:

    underlinePosition

    This is the suggested distance of the top of the underline from the baseline (negative values indicate below baseline).

    The PostScript definition of this FontInfo dictionary key (the y coordinate of the center of the stroke) is not used for historical reasons. The value of the PostScript key may be calculated by subtracting half the underlineThickness from the value of this field.

11. Dropdown Menu "Type" Text Not Consistent

    Currently using v17.3 and I believe the "Find/Replace Font..." (under "Type" menu bar) should be with initial caps and not what I'm currently seeing. It should be the same style as "Find/Change", right?

    Checked with my fellow InDesign users and seems like it's only me.
    Anybody else has this issue?

    Thanks!

12. Resizing table cell causes InDesign to crash

    2. Resize the single-cell table so that the content overflows.
    3. Content should disappear and overflow symbol should appear.

13. InDesign Window Moves Slightly Offscreen (So I Can't Adjust Window Size) When Plugged Into External QHD Display

    I'm using a 14" M1 Pro Macbook Pro, and when plugging into an external display (QHD), Indesign's top window moves slightly offscreen (see attached picture). Goes away when I unplug the display, but quite annoying to have to remember to resize the window before plugging it into a display since I can't resize the window another way without that top bar accessible.

14. "Small cap" with some fonts doesn't works

    Version of Indesign: 17.3

    Steps:
    - write a text in Arial (or Bahnschrift, Calibri, Times new roman)
    - select text and activate "Small caps",
    - go to Preference -> Advanced type -> Character setting,
    - Change "Small cap" value to 40% (from 70%),
    - NOTHING CHANGE!

    Do the same with InDesign 15.3.1 and it works.

18. PDF-Comments Panel - Buttonclicks don't register - click several times + SOLUTION

    Report a minor issue in Indesigns PDF-Correction-Panel.

    SOMETIMES in the PDF-correction panel my mouseclicks on the "accept"-Button wouldn't register reliably and i have to click several times in order for the correction to be made. Solution: The clickable area in the button is wrong. You have to click on the "accept"-TEXT inside the button, you can't click somewhere in the outer highlighted area of the button (which would be the expected behaviour).

    (Bug in latest version of Indesign CC, as of May2022, german locale)

    kinds regards,
    Stephan

19. Space Bar Shortcut for Hand Tool frequently stops working (MacOS)

    About once a week I find that the hand tool shortcut stops working.
    Restarting InDesign doesn't resolve the issue, however restarting the computer does.

    Space bar continues to work in all other capacities (including as a spacebar, as I'm experiencing the bug right now and yet still able to add spaces into this text box)

    macOS Big Sur 11.6.7
