1. [ID-4256474]InDesign 2025 removes all PDF export setting files with double-byte and accented characters from InDesign 2024

   During the installation of InDesign 2025, all .joboptions files with PDF export settings were removed, even in the older version 2024! This is absurd!

2. [ID-4256670]InDesign crashes while navigating through Parent Pages in Pages Panel

   InDesign 20.0

   Click on the first parent page in the panel and use option + page down to navigate. When you reach a parent page that is not used in the document, you can go no further.

   Click the last parent in the panel and use option + page up to navigate. Either the selection jumps to the first parent page in the panel or InDesign crashes.

3. The link is set to "anyone with link can comment" but it's still requiring a password

   I have created a share for review link for others to comment on, however it's requiring them to log into an account even though it's set to "Anyone with the link can comment". This was not the case before, others could comment as a guest. Using InDesign 2024 v19.0.1

4. "Insufficient data for an image" error is shown on opening PDF in Acrobat

   We are experiencing issues with exporting to PDF. Hi res PDF Compatibility Acrobat 7 (PDF 1.6).
   The PDF is created normally, but when opening the PDF, it sometimes happens that the image is not displayed on one or more pages. The error message for this specific page is: ERROR: Insufficient data for an image.
   We tried to solve this problem within our team. Eventually, we discovered that the issue did not occur for one of our colleagues. Further investigation revealed that this colleague was still using an older version of InDesign (18.3). The colleagues experiencing problems had automatic updates enabled and were working on the new version 18.4. I then uninstalled my 18.4 version and reverted back to 18.3, and the PDF exports started working as before without the error message.

   I hope you can look into this and perhaps address it in the new InDesign version.

   Best regards,
   Mike Böger

5. PAC 2021 Error for InDesign generated PDF : Object reference not set to an instance of an object

   I am still getting Object reference not set to an instance of an object when testing pdf files in PAC 21. This error apparently relates to 'PDF Export using ZIP compression for images shows an “Insufficient data for an image” error on opening in Acrobat.

   This was supposed to be fixed in ID 18.5 but its now happening with every PDF I check for accessibility, even a single page with simple text.

   Working for local government and its imperative our PDF files exported from ID are fully accessible and tested. Seek an urgent fix.

6. installed font missing InDesign 17.2 macOS 12.3 (Monterey) and macOS Catalina

   Different clients have the same problem. Installed fonts on the system are not recognised by InDesign 17.2. Other Adobe applications recognise the font and it can be used in those applications. I can recreate the problem, my colleague not. After downgrading InDesign to version 17.01 everything works fine.

7. InDesign opens documents in read only after upgrading to InDesign 2023(18.0)

   Indesign CC 2023 version 18.0 Files open as “Read Only”
   As soon as updated, some files have started to open “Read Only” (RO)
   My OS: Windows 10 Pro 10.0.19044 or 21H2
   PC Desktop
   I am working remotely through a VPN to a server IP address
   I have Indesign 2023 18.0 , and Indesign CS6 installed. I have not opened the CS6 in years. Also noted: My machine does not automatically uninstall the former version when it updates. I manually uninstalled Indesign 2022 after I started using the 2023. At first I thought the RO problem was a conflict, so that was the first thing I did.
   Older version files open up as “converted” ok
   I am able to do all writing on my remote server, I can “save as”, and export files, create folders, delete files, ect.
   If I copy a file that opens RO to my local desktop, I can then open it fine (read/write - RW). If I make changes to that file, save, and then copy it back to remote server, it will open as RO again.
   This does not seem to be happening to every file. I started working on 2 files yesterday, opened and made changes, saved, and closed both multiple times in the morning, then a couple hours later, they opened RO. Then another hour later, one of them opened ok -RW.
   I have a coworker that has the same PC OS Windows system version, and same Indesign version. We both access to the files through same VPN, he is just not in same location as me (about 20 miles away). However, his system automatically uninstalled older versions when it updates. He can open the same files that open RO for me, and they open fine, RW, for him.
   If I open a brand new blank file and I copy and paste all contents from a file that opened RO, then close the RO file and save my Untitled document over it, it will them open up ok when I go back immediately and open it. However, if I go back to open that file, say an hour later, It may or may not open up “Read Only” again.
   I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling Indesign 2023, and checking to make sure updated. I have unplugged (reset) my modem.
   I cannot change my preferences for updates to uninstall older versions at this time as I have a graphics card issue with the latest version of Photoshop. I cannot go back to using Indesign 2022, as my cowerker has already been using 2023 for awhile and many files are converted.
   It seems to be intermittent, and almost like there is a problem with files not closing properly? Any thoughts or suggestions are greatly appreciated!

8. Gray boxes behind photos in Share for Review

   I have been using the new Share for Review for the last little while and am enjoying receiving feedback directly on my documents for import into InDesign. However, I recently went to a published file and noticed that all of the images in my design now have a light gray square behind them. Additionally, the colours and blending on some of the images are all off or look odd. The gray boxes appear on all of my previously uploaded documents, and I've checked from multiple computers and they all appear to show these boxes.

   Please refer to this thread for previous discussion: https://community.adobe.com/t5/indesign-discussions/share-for-review-gray-boxes-behind-all-images/m-p/13951228#M534701

   4. Gray boxes appearing behind all photos (especially circular photos) and gradients all look off.
   5. Attached.

9. Place multi-page PDF pages: Place Gun will be unloaded after first page is placed to a frame

   New bug with InDesign 17.2 that I cannot see with InDesign 17.1.

   [1] Load multiple PDF pages from a multi-page PDF to the place gun.
   [2] Hover the loaded cursor over a graphic frame to place the first page in that frame
   [3] Click to place the first page.

   Result:
   The first page is placed to the frame

   BUG: The rest of the loaded PDF pages in the place gun are unloaded. The place gun is empty after you placed the first of several pages to a frame.

   WHAT WORKS:
   [1] Load multiple PDF pages from a multi-page PDF to the place gun.
   [2] Draw out new frames with the loaded cursor to place one page after another

   See reports in the InDesign user forum for more details:

10. InDesign 18.2 crashes/fails during PDF export for documents containing placed indd containing Adobe Fonts

    Problem/Actual Result
    I have Indesign files that have .indd files linked as images. Each time I export an Indesign file that has an .indd links, I receive the attached messages saying that the file cannot be exported.

    Steps to reproduce the issue:
    - I have exported each page to find out which assets are causing Indesign not to export, it is always an .indd asset.
    - I have tried removing any transparency from each of the .indd linkages
    - I have removed any transparency or object style on any bounding box an .indd file sits in.
    - I have tried removing any unused or empty layers in all of the .indd linkages
    - I have tried exporting Indesign files as Press Quality, High Quality Print and Small File size but no PDF can be produced.
    - I have tried saving the Indesign file and .indd linkages as IDML or INDT files, then resaving them as Indesign files, but no PDF is produced.
    
    - I have trashed all my preferences multiple times.
    - I have restarted my computer multiple times.
    - I have tested the above with multiple Indesign files and still receive the attached error messages

    Expected result:
    To successfully produce a PDF by using the File > Export function. The only way I can make a PDF currently is going to the Print dialog window and creating a PDF file but that is not desirable and very slow.

11. GPU Performance makes colours dull/desaturated

    With GPU Performance enabled, all colours appear desaturated. In fact, it looks like colour management is simply turned off. Please note, this is not a Transparency Blend Space issue. It affects Spot, RGB and CMYK colours.

    With GPU Performance disabled, colours appear vibrant and correct. It would be great to have this issue resolved, as I certainly want to take advantage of the GPU when using InDesign.

12. Hanging drop cap has wrong indents in 2023 v18

    In v18 (2023), when a paragraph has both a drop cap and a hanging indent (negative first line indent), the indent gets messed up on subsequent lines.

    This came from a bug report by Lut Van Nooten on the InDesign Secrets LinkedIn group:
    https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:7006264075831648258/

    The solution is to disable the new Composition Preference: "Honor Text Indents in addition to Text Wrap"

    However, in this case, this is clearly a bug because there is no text wrap!

18. Opening a file with missing fonts freezes InDesign

    Opening a file that has missing fonts freezes InDesign for a minute or so. Every document with missing fonts does this. If I manually activate the font and then try opening the same document again, there is no freeze.

    InDesign 17.2.1, macOS Monterey (latest)
    My coworker is on Catalina and has the same freeze too.

20. Graphics glitches galore on M1 MacBook Air + external 4K monitor

    InDesign 17 on an M1 MacBook Air with Big Sur is barely usable with an external 4K monitor. There are graphic artifacts everywhere, especially near the margins/edge of boxes which makes it hard to know if anything is aligned properly. Everything looks okay on the laptop's built-in display but is distorted on the external.

    Also, when scrolling, the screen updates sporadically and usually does the Windows 95-looking stuck window effect.

    If I turn off the GPU it looks better when working statically but when scrolling it is even worse.
