1. [ID-4246352]NIKKUD (accents/diacritics) selection has become invisible

   InDesign version: v20 (both Mac & PC)

   Hebrew letters can use NIKKUD - vocalization diacritical marks (function like Vowels) under/above the letter.

   • In previous versions (-2023) it was possible to select only the NIKKUD (attached image) of the letter. (in order to specify the position of the NIKKUD using the Diacritic Positioning panel or to change color, etc.)
   • In the current version (2024-2025) the selection is on the entire letter, and there is no visual indication whether the letter or the NIKKUD is selected (attached image).

   Note: Sometimes there are two NIKKUD characters and even in such a case in the past it was possible to choose each separately (attached image)

2. [ID-4273456] Press the opt/alt key after dragging, it duplicated to the incorrect layer

   InDesign 2026 （and earlier, too）I was found out in CS6.

   Issue:
   When drag and duplicate any object, the duplicate destination will be the previous active layer under certain conditions.

   Reproduction procedure:
   1 Layer panel "Paste Remembers Layers" check off
   2 Unselect, and duplicate the object Activate layers other than the layers of the object
   3 Start dragging and add the option/alt key in the middle of dragging
   4 After dragging, the object is duplicated to the layer that was active in step 2

   Ideal result:
   The uplication by dragging will be duplicated to the same layer as the original regardless of any setting.

   I really hope to correct it.
   Regards.

   ドラッグ複製したいとき、特定の条件で複製先が以前のアクティブレイヤーになる

   再現手順
   1 レイヤーパネルプション「コピー元のレイヤーにペースト」チェックをオフ

   4 ドラッグ終了後、オブジェクトは手順2でアクティブだったレイヤーに複製される

   理想の結果
   ドラッグによる複製はいかなる設定にも関係なくオリジナルと同一のレイヤーに複製されること

   修正をすごく希望します。
   よろしくー。

3. Tiny bug within the German UI: GREP style sub menu is missing "aus"

   Please add the German word " aus" (more correct: a space and the word aus) after "Mehrere Zeilen" in the GREP style sub menu within the German InDesign.

   This " aus" (= "off") is missing since at least v2016!

   Screenshot 1 shows the english version, srceenshot 2 how it should look like in German(of course not in red color).

4. [ID-4272869] InDesign adds Blank space to top during PNG export for converted documents

   I booted up 2026 (version 21.0) and opened a file that I was working on literally yesterday. I have a text box over a solid fill background shape. When I exported them both together yesterday, it worked as expected. Today, it exports with an obnoxious blank space (or filled space if I uncheck "Transparent Background") at the top.

   Absolutely nothing changed with the file, it's just happening in 2026 and not in 2025. Comparison attached.

   Workaround: Export the document to IDML

   InDesign 2026 says that my documents are damaged.
   All documents that are on my Synology NAS. Connected via SMB3.

   If I quit and restart InDesign 2026 - I can open one file once. Alla files after that is "damaged".
   New file created with InDesign 2026 and saved on NAS works.
   Looks like the issue is with documents from previous version that opens as "converted".
   Only happens on NAS. Not on local files.

6. [ID-4273762] Critical bug — Dropdown / <select> / sp-picker not working in UXP plugin under InDesign 2025 (Win & Mac)

   I'm contacting you about a recurring bug I've encountered—and that several other developers have reported—since the Adobe InDesign 2025 update (versions 20.4, 20.4.1, 20.5).

   🔹 Problem Description

   • In a plugin using Adobe UXP (UI HTML or Spectrum), the dropdown elements <select>—or <sp-picker>—no longer respond to clicks: the border may change color, but the list doesn't open, and it's impossible to select an item.

   • Even when using minimal HTML code or testing from UXP Developer Tools (Playground), the problem persists.

   • This bug seems to affect several environments (Windows 11, different versions of InDesign, and possibly macOS as well, according to community feedback).

   • In some cases, events (click, change, keydown, etc.) are no longer emitted for form controls.
     Adobe Creative Cloud Developer Forums

   🔹 Impact

   Existing plugins become unusable — users are unable to enter or select options, thus blocking normal operation.

   Production usage is severely disrupted.

   Loss of confidence in the stability of the UXP runtime.

   🔹 Step to reproduce

   1 - Create starter package
   2 - Add select with options tags
   3 - Use UXP Developer tools or package it
   4 - Open panel in Indesign 2025
   - under 20.4 version, it works fine. We can open option in select
   - upper 20.3 version, select tags, checkbox,... doesn't work

   🔹 What I'm asking

   Can you confirm that this bug has been identified internally?

   Is there a planned fix (future version or update) to restore the behavior of dropdown lists/sp-picker/select in UXP under InDesign 2025?

   If not, is it possible to obtain an official workaround (patch, beta build, directive) for our plugins in production?

   Thank you in advance for your help—this bug seriously compromises the reliability of UXP plugins. I am available to provide code examples, reproductions, or logs if that would be helpful.

   Sincerely,
   Stéphane Senocq

7. [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.

   When I apply a preset or a newly created CMYK swatch to MathML, the color does not match the value.
   It appears to be CMYK via RGB color.

   Original text (Japanese):
   MathMLに対し、プリセットや新規作成したCMYKスウォッチを適用しても、その数値どおりのカラーになりません。
   RGBカラーを経由してCMYKになっているように見えます。

   Thank you for trying out the MathML feature in InDesign! The math objects created using this feature are placed as SVGs, and hence they exclusively support RGB colours.If you try to apply a non RGB colour (CMYK/LAB/HSV-based), then by design it is converted to RGB before it is applied to the math object. This conversion is designed to enable users to continue using document colours that are not RGB-based for the math object SVGs.

11. [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.

14. [ID-4257736]InDesign hangs when placing CJK tagged text with ruby

    I'm currently using ID 2024, but I have tested other versions of ID, back to CS6, and they all have the same problem. I'm currently running Windows 11, but the problem also occurs in Windows 10.

    Steps:

    1. Install the Adobe font family, Source Han Sans TW, on your computer.
    2. Download TaggedText.zip and unzip it
    3. Open InDesign in the CJK version
    4. Create a new document with these grid attributes: Direction = Vertical; Font = Source Han Sans TW, Normal; Size = 16 pt; Vertical = Horizontal = 100%; Char Aki = 0 pt; Line Aki = 10 pt; Characters = 40; Lines = 15
    5. Go File > Place... > choose TaggedText.txt
    6. After TaggedText.txt is loaded into the "cursor" <shift-click> inside the frame

    It would be nice if InDesign would place the text and allow me to continue working with the data. Unfortunately, InDesign hangs and I have to kill it with the Task Manager.

    (Contact me if you have problems downloading it.)

    I have a video showing how to reproduce the bug:
    https://www.loom.com/share/733195ba2f5a4b2abb6faae10835b4ad?sid=036cf1f2-a772-476c-a8ee-ab126ce0f2dd

    I'm pretty sure the problem is related to ruby in the tagged text. It is possible to place the text using the debug version of InDesign available through adobeprerelease.com which leads me to think that the tagged text is acceptable. My request is to fix the regular version of InDesign so that it can place this tagged text just like the debug version can.

    At this point InDesign is hung.

    I'm currently using ID 2024, but I have tested other versions of ID, back to CS6, and they all have the same problem. I'm currently running Windows 11, but the problem also occurs in Windows 10.

    Steps:

    1. Install the Adobe font family, Source Han Sans TW, on your computer.
    2. Download TaggedText.zip and unzip it
    3. Open InDesign in the CJK version
    4. Create a new document with these grid attributes: Direction = Vertical; Font = Source Han Sans TW, Normal; Size = 16 pt; Vertical = Horizontal = 100%; Char Aki = 0 pt; Line Aki = 10 pt; Characters = 40;… more

15. [ID-4267886]InDesign cloud document doesn't display Tmeline icon when opened from the Save in Web menu

    How to reproduce:

    -In Creative Cloud desktop app, locate an InDesign cloud document

    -Choose the Open in Web menu

    In the resulting page of the file, the Timeline icon doesn't appear (see attached images).

    The user will need to go to the file list (by clicking Files, for example), click the file, and then the Timeline icon will appear as expected (see attached images).

16. [ID-4257194]page numbers on documents don't match page numbers in book window or pages pane

    Ever since InDesign updated from version 19.5 to version 20, the current page number marker on my master pages will not sync. Now, every document in my book just starts from page 1. So, in other words, every chapter starts over at page 1. Please help. I've included a screen grab of my problem. You'll see that the page numbers on the actual document don't match the page numbers indicated in the pages window or in the book window. I've redone the marker in the master pages and resynced, but no dice...

    To resolve this issue, please click on the 'Update page and section numbers' option (present in the book panel's hamburger menu) after opening any book(created in any previous version) for the first time in 20.0

17. [ID-4255594]Hidden spreads are included in Table of Contents

    When you hide spreads, their individual page numbers change appropriately, but when you look at the table of contents and update that, the hidden pages still appear and the page numbers do not match those shown on the pages themselves.

18. [ID-4263586] Adobe InDesign 2025 text justify buttons issue

    In the latest update of InDesign 2025 (as of writing this), there is a problem with the text justification buttons in the toolbar.

    Previously, you could click these buttons and then just keep typing into your currently active text frame, which is what one would expect from previous versions of InDesign.

    With the latest update, keyboard focus instead shifts over to these buttons, taking focus away from the text frame and your current text cursor position.
    This is completely useless, and makes it more difficult than it should be to, say, change the justification at a certain line of text and then keep typing or navigating the text in the frame.

    Would appreciate a fix for this, as it is causing severe interruptions to my workflow, and the feature/bug benefits no one.

19. [ID-4257731]No Redraws on Object Highlight

    Prerequisites

    • macOS version only
    • version 18 (2023) and later
    • Screen Mode: Normal
    • GPU Performance OFF (CPU Preview)

    This issue occurs 100% of the time under these conditions. Note that Overprint Preview forces CPU Preview, causing the issue even in Overprint Preview mode with GPU Performance ON. It persists across macOS versions and Intel/Apple Silicon platforms.

    Steps to Reproduce

    1. Prepare an InDesign document with multiple pages.
    2. Place any object on the page.
    3. Switch to the Text tool.
    4. Hover the mouse over the object (MouseEnter), without selecting it.
    5. Press the Cmd key while the mouse is over the object.
    6. The object is highlighted.
    7. Select the menu item "Layout > Next Page."

    The document should navigate to the next page, but it doesn't. Although the scrollbar or page panel indicates navigation, the display remains frozen without redrawing.

    Furthermore, even when the mouse is moved away from the object (MouseExit), the object remains highlighted and can be challenging to unhighlight.

    This feature, highlighting objects using "Text tool + Cmd key + MouseEnter," has been present in InDesign since its early versions. However, this issue surfaced in version 18 (2023) specifically when using CPU Preview, despite no problems in version 17 (2022).

    ---

    There are similar issues with other functions.

    Steps to Reproduce

    In addition to the prerequisites mentioned above, turn on "Highlight Object Under Selection Tool" in "Preferences > Interface." Then, highlight an object with the Selection Tool and press the keyboard shortcut for "Layout > Next Page" (shift+page down).

    The document should move to the next page, but it does not. Similarity to the above bug.

    "Highlight Object Under Selection Tool" is a feature introduced in CS5.5. Turning this off can prevent the issue from occurring.

    However, even when this is turned off, the object highlight with "Text Tool + Cmd Key + MouseEnter" does not turn off. It might be a completely separate function. To avoid confusion, I explained these two separately.

    Prerequisites

    • macOS version only
    • version 18 (2023) and later
    • Screen Mode: Normal
    • GPU Performance OFF (CPU Preview)

    This issue occurs 100% of the time under these conditions. Note that Overprint Preview forces CPU Preview, causing the issue even in Overprint Preview mode with GPU Performance ON. It persists across macOS versions and Intel/Apple Silicon platforms.

    Steps to Reproduce

    1. Prepare an InDesign document with multiple pages.
    2. Place any object on the page.
    3. Switch to the Text tool.
    4. Hover the mouse over the object (MouseEnter), without selecting it.
    5. Press the Cmd key while the mouse is over the object.
    6. The object is… more

    Hi,

    Thank you for reporting the issue. InDesign currently has a limitation of showing only 1 GPU card in the InDesign Preferences. Internally we pick the necessary Graphic card for rendering. It is currently under investigation.
