1. InDesign for macOS clearing Undo stack

   1. Adobe InDesign 2026 v21.2.0.30 for macOS
   2. Restart macOS, Open document in InDesign, and work with document normally.
   3. Undo should remain available, with a long history of undo steps while working on a document.
   4. During the course of working with the document at some point the history will clear and undo will become unavailable via keyboard shortcut, menu, or the panel.

   This behavior is similar to the behavior described in ID-4274243 (https://indesign.uservoice.com/forums/601180-adobe-indesign-bugs/suggestions/50813147--id-4274243-indesign-clearing-undo-stack-frequent?linkId=100000398096855) but unlike that issue, this is affecting users on macOS and is present in v21.2.0.30.

   Two users on our staff are affected, both are running macOS 26.3 on a 16" MacBook Pro w/ M1 Pro, connected to an Asus ProArt 4k monitor via USB-C.

2. Content-Aware Fit produces poor crops / bad fit

   In these “AI times,” how can “Content-Aware Fit” be so extremely bad at cropping images like these? It hasn’t improved between CC2019 and CC2026.

   The feature could be very useful and does an okay job on many images, but when the results are this poor, it’s hard to use it at all in automated workflows.

   I often get complaints that images that absolutely don’t need much cropping end up being cropped unnecessarily.

   Is this something Adobe has in their backlog or roadmap to fix?

3. Textrahmenoptionen

   Was ich in InDesign vermisse: es gibt zwar ein Konturwerkzeug auch für Textfelder, aber keine Möglichkeit, eine Zierlinie am Textfeld unten anzubringen. Ich habe in Handbüchern nichts gefunden. Es geht darum, nicht komplette Umrandungen zu erstellen, sondern eine Zierlinie am unteren Rand. In den beigefügten Dateien sehen Sie ein Beispiel von MS Publisher.

5. Place and Link

   To the InDesign Product Team,

   I am writing to provide feedback on the Place and Link (Content Collector) workflow. While the ability to sync text content across a document is invaluable, the current implementation of the "Parent-Child" relationship is overly restrictive and creates significant manual rework for designers.

   The Problem: Currently, when a Parent object is updated, the Child object frequently reverts its font size, frame dimensions, and character treatment to match the Parent—even when "Preserve Local Overrides" is enabled. While "Style Mapping" exists as a workaround, it is an overly complex solution for a simple design need: keeping the words synced while keeping the design independent.

   The Proposed Solution: I request a more intuitive "Link Options" toggle that allows a Child object to permanently lock its local formatting. Specifically:

   Content-Only Sync: A high-level checkbox that tells the Child to only accept string (text) updates, ignoring all Parent-side attributes like point size, leading, tracking, and color.
   
   Geometry Independence: An option to decouple the frame's scale and dimensions from the Parent permanently, without needing to dive into complex sub-menus.
   
   One-Click "Stay as I Am": A simplified "Link Options" dialog where "Preserve Local Overrides" actually functions as a master lock for all visual attributes, rather than being overridden by "Update Appearance" or "Update Styles" flags.
   

   The "Place and Link" tool should function as a content-management bridge, not a formatting mirror. Designers need the flexibility to use the same text in a large headline (Parent) and a small sidebar (Child) without the software constantly fighting their layout decisions.

   Thank you for your time and for continuing to improve the industry standard for layout design.

   Best regards,

6. Page Information is repositioned and cutoff when document is below a certain Document width

   If a document has a width smaller than a certain size, the Page Information on exported PDFs becomes re-positioned lower and outside the left and right bounds so becomes cut off, as opposed to being within the crop mark area, no matter how long the file name is.

9. Drop shadow changing position and shape on rotated objects and exporting incorrectly to PNG

   Drop shadows move unexpectedly on rotated objects. It creates a visual glitch that can be seen toggling Overprint Preview On/Off.

   Incorrect drop shadow can be seen in PNG export.
   Correct drop shadow can be seen in PDF.

   To recreate the bug:

   1) Draw a shape or a create a text frame
   2) Apply a drop shadow to the object (any setting, video is with Adobe default)
   3) Rotate the object
   4) Move the object around the live page until the drop shadow starts moving unexpectedly (offset varies).
   5) Export to PNG.

10. BOM in CSV

    for more than 7 years this problem is known to Adobe. Excel, Open source office suits etc. export CSV with BOM. it's against standard. one can import to textedit and save. Why is adobe not able to clean out that BOM?? I mean 25 years ago I was able to do a data merge. InDesign these days can not handle an excel exported CSV file. Really? Please guys. make the stuff work, that have worked 30 years ago. yes, shame on microsoft. shame on you both. users have to do a research to solve a problem, that has not existed 30 years ago because microsoft had the brilliant idea to once again add something to a standard and by that not sticking to the standard anymore. brilliant. thank you. Please fix microsoft's bug. I know, I ask for much. but it's not that big of a deal to fix that for you and make data merge in InDesign work without us users to need to use a 3rd tool to convert

11. Installing InDesign 20.5.2 caused the system to make it the default version, replacing 21.2.0 as the default app for opening InDesign files

    When I double-click the file I have been working on, I get an error message that says it couldn't be opened because it was created by a newer version of InDesign. It calls out 21.2 as the offender. If I look at the recent updates for Creative Cloud, it looks like 21.2 was updated 19 days ago, and 20.5.2 was updated 13 days ago. It looks like the association for which app to open .indd files was changed with the 20.5.2 update, and it no longer opens the latest version of the product. I can open 21.2 manually, but I can't just click on the file and have it open correctly. Your right hand doesn't know what the left is doing! Please send another update for the 21.2 (or later dot number) to correct this.

12. [ID-4277180]InDesign v21.2.0.030 crashes on quit in SubProcess

    Version of Adobe InDesign, InCopy or InDesign Server
    Adobe InDesign 2026, Version 21.2.0.30 (Build 21200)
    Running on macOS 26.2 (25C56) on Apple Silicon (Mac14,2, 16 GB RAM)
    Steps to reproduce the issue
    1. Launch Adobe InDesign 2026.
    2. Open any document (or create a new blank document).
    3. Work normally for a while, or even do nothing.
    4. Choose “InDesign > Quit InDesign” or press Cmd+Q.
    5. Confirm quitting if prompted.
    Expected result
    InDesign quits cleanly without any error message and returns to the macOS desktop.
    Actual result
    • InDesign crashes on quit every time.
    • macOS shows a crash dialog stating that “Adobe InDesign 2026 quit unexpectedly” (or similar wording).
    • The macOS crash report shows:
    • Exception Type: EXC_CRASH (SIGABRT)
    • Termination Reason: Namespace SIGNAL, Code 6, “Abort trap: 6”
    • Crash is triggered in Thread 10.
    • This happens even after:
    • Resetting InDesign preferences on launch.
    • Deleting InDesign caches and preference folders in the user Library.
    • Completely uninstalling and reinstalling InDesign via Creative Cloud.
    • Testing in a brand-new macOS user account.
    Additional context
    • The same InDesign version (21.2.0.30) on my previous Mac and macOS version did not show this problem; the issue started only after migrating to the new Mac (same InDesign version, newer macOS).
    • No third‑party plug‑ins are installed (or all third‑party plug‑ins have been removed for testing).
    • The crash occurs regardless of which document is open; even a new, empty document triggers the crash on quit.

    Version of Adobe InDesign, InCopy or InDesign Server
    Adobe InDesign 2026, Version 21.2.0.30 (Build 21200)

13. FlexObject Items Invisible in Preview Mode (possible culprit: IDML Roundtrip)

    Bug Report: FlexObject Items Invisible in Preview Mode (probably bugged after IDML Roundtrip)

    Product: Adobe InDesign 2025 (v20.x)
    Feature: Flex Layout / FlexObject (new in InDesign 2025)
    Severity: Major — affects preview mode of the new flex objects
    Date: February 20, 2026

    ---

    Summary

    FlexObject containers and their child items become invisible in Preview screen mode (but remain visible in Normal mode and Overprint Preview) after a document has undergone an IDML export/import roundtrip. The issue also propagates to any copies made from affected objects — even copies placed outside the FlexObject container.

    The root cause was identified as a missing registration of these page items in the internal spread-level page item collection. Items exist in page.allPageItems but are absent from spread.allPageItems, which Preview mode apparently relies on for rendering.

    ---

    Suspected Trigger

    The affected document had previously undergone an IDML roundtrip (export as .idml, then reopen). The document contains FlexObject containers (the new Flex Layout feature introduced in InDesign 2025). The hypothesis is that the IDML reconstruction does not fully re-register FlexObject items in the spread's internal page item hierarchy. Since FlexObjects are a very new feature, it is plausible that the IDML serialization/deserialization path does not yet handle them with full fidelity.

    ---

    Steps to Reproduce

    1. Create a new InDesign document.
    2. Add a Flex Layout container (FlexObject) with several child items (e.g., image frames with the object style "Album in REZI KURZ").
    3. Save and export the document as IDML (.idml).
    4. Close the document and reopen the exported .idml file.
    5. Save as .indd.
    6. Switch from Normal screen mode to Preview screen mode (View → Screen Mode → Preview, or press W).

    Expected: All items remain visible.
    Actual: The FlexObject and all its children disappear entirely.

    Additional observation: Copying an affected item out of the FlexObject and pasting it elsewhere on the page does not fix the issue — the copy inherits the "unregistered" state. Even extracting just the placed image (graphic content) from a frame and pasting it into the document independently produces a new frame that is also invisible in Preview mode.

    ---

    Systematic Exclusion of Common Causes

    The following properties were checked programmatically (via ExtendScript) on all affected objects and confirmed to be not the cause:

    | Property / Setting | Value Found | Would Cause Invisibility? |
    |---|---|---|
    | item.nonprinting | false on all items | No — correctly set |
    | item.visible | true on all items | No — correctly set |
    | item.itemLayer.visible | true | No — layer is visible |
    | item.itemLayer.printable | true | No — layer is set to print |
    | item.transparencySettings.blendingSettings.opacity | 100 on all items | No — fully opaque |
    | Object Style .nonprinting | false on all relevant styles | No — styles do not suppress printing |
    | item.fillColor | "None" (frames are graphic frames) | Not relevant |
    | Geometric bounds vs. page bounds | All items within page boundaries | No — not on pasteboard |
    | Link status of placed images | NORMAL on all images | No — links are intact |
    | Content type of frames | GRAPHIC_TYPE | Correct |

    Key distinction: Items are visible in Overprint Preview (View → Overprint Preview) but invisible in Preview screen mode (the mode that hides guides and pasteboard). This rules out any rendering/transparency issue and points to a metadata/registration problem specific to Preview mode's rendering path.

    ---

    Diagnostic Finding: Missing Spread Registration

    Using ExtendScript, the following discrepancy was discovered:

    // On an affected document:
    spread.allPageItems.length;  // → 0  (WRONG — should contain items)
    page.allPageItems.length;    // → 21 (correct — all items present)
    
    // After creating a NEW rectangle via script on the same page:
    spread.allPageItems.length;  // → 1  (new item registers correctly)
    page.allPageItems.length;    // → 22
    

    All 21 page items (1 FlexObject + 9 Rectangles inside it + 10 Images + 2 loose Rectangle copies) were found via page.allPageItems but none appeared in spread.allPageItems.

    A freshly created Rectangle (via page.rectangles.add()) registered in spread.allPageItems immediately, confirming that the spread collection mechanism itself works — it is specifically the IDML-reconstructed FlexObject items that fail to register.

    This strongly suggests that Preview mode uses the spread.allPageItems collection (or an equivalent internal list) to determine which items to render, while Normal mode and Overprint Preview use a different rendering path that includes all items regardless of spread registration.

    ---

    Workaround

    A manual workaround was discovered and automated via ExtendScript:

    1. Cut the affected top-level item.
    2. Create a temporary Rectangle on the page.
    3. Paste Into the temporary Rectangle (Edit → Paste Into).
    4. Select the pasted item inside the container and Cut it back out.
    5. Remove the temporary Rectangle.
    6. Paste the item back onto the page.
    7. Restore the original geometric bounds.

    This paste-into/cut-out cycle forces InDesign to re-register the item in the spread's internal collection. After this procedure, the item (including FlexObjects with all their children) appears correctly in Preview mode.

    An automated repair script was developed that:
    - Detects all top-level items present in page.allPageItems but absent from spread.allPageItems
    - Applies the paste-into workaround to each affected item
    - Verifies successful re-registration afterward
    - Groups the entire operation under a single Undo step

    ---

    Impact

    • Print production: Items invisible in Preview mode may also be missing from PDF export or print output (not yet verified but likely given the correlation between Preview mode and print rendering).
    • User confusion: Designers may not notice the issue until final proofing, as items appear normal in the default working view.
    • Propagation: The issue spreads to any copies made from affected objects, making it difficult to isolate without programmatic diagnosis.
    • Magazine production affected: The issue was discovered during production of a print magazine (folker magazine, issue 25-4), where FlexObject layouts are used for album review image grids.

    ---

    Requested Fix

    1. Ensure that IDML import fully registers all reconstructed page items — including FlexObject containers and their children — in the spread's internal page item collection.
    2. Consider adding a document integrity check that detects and repairs unregistered page items on document open or IDML import.
    3. Verify that other new object types introduced alongside Flex Layout are also correctly handled during IDML roundtrips.

    Bug Report: FlexObject Items Invisible in Preview Mode (probably bugged after IDML Roundtrip)

    Product: Adobe InDesign 2025 (v20.x)
    Feature: Flex Layout / FlexObject (new in InDesign 2025)
    Severity: Major — affects preview mode of the new flex objects
    Date: February 20, 2026

    ---

    Summary

    FlexObject containers and their child items become invisible in Preview screen mode (but remain visible in Normal mode and Overprint Preview) after a document has undergone an IDML export/import roundtrip. The issue also propagates to any copies made from affected objects — even copies placed outside the FlexObject container.

    The root cause was identified as a missing… more

    • Reproducible Steps – What were you doing when the issue occurred?
    • Video recording of the issue
    • Is(Are) the issue related to a specific document(s)/asset(s)? If yes, could you provide us with the document(s)/asset(s)? Please package the entire document (To package the document, choose File → Package…)

    Also provide answers to follow queries

    1. During IDML workflow , are you opening the indd containing flex in version 20.0-20.5 or you are opening the IDML in version 21.0 onwards?

14. InDesign 21.1 x64 on PC: panels not expanding when clicking on the icon

    Panels sometimes do not expand when clicking on an icon in the right-hand column of panels. It seems random. Sometimes the panel you choose expands when you click on the icon (as it should), but sometimes you have to click the two little chevrons pointing leftward at the top of the column of icons, which makes them all expand and it's a mess to work with. Only the one you click on should expand, but sometimes it doesn't.

    This isn't a new bug. There were previous submissions about this and the issue was supposedly resolved, but it is NOT. The comments are closed, so I couldn't comment on there that the issue is not resolved. This has been happening ever since the first upgrade at the beginning of the year. I'm on the latest update and still having this issue.

15. pdf

    Many occasions over the last couple of weeks when I try to export a PDF, it just blocks, wheel turning in the top right corner, and nothing happens until I forcibly close the program through Task Manager. On may occasions the completed PDF then appears in the folder.

16. Linked image within illustrator file not appearing when placed in indesign

    Using:
    InDesign 21.1
    Link created in Illustrator 30.2.1

    I have a map created in Illustrator with a background (flattened) tiff which displays fine in Illustrator. Once placed into InDD, the tiff won't appear (layer is ON and printing) and doesn't get included in exports (thus eliminating a rendering issue of any kind).
    This has happened on 2 separate files but is fine in others with the same set-up.
    On occasion the tiff will reappear...
    This is a recent 'development' in past 2 weeks.

18. Pages invisible

    Pages are not visible. This started after Mac OS upgrade to 26.3 (25D125). I have to shut down InDesign to make pages visible, then if I zoom in or oiut pages disappear.

20. Create Alternate Layout is buggy

    I wanted to create one alternative Layout so that I can export my DIN A3 file also as DIN A4 sized file.

    I created an alternate Layout as usual.
    I expected having all 12 pages twice in 2 different Sizes, (one in A3 and one in A4)
    What InDesign did was it created 4 different Alternate Layouts and distributed the 12 pages among the 4 layouts.
    Meaning I have 2 Layout I did not create and I cannot move the pages back to the original layout.
    Also it did not resize the design, styles and texts as usual, instead they are cut off.

    Since the "Undo / Redo" functionality is currently also deactivated or broken I cannot undo that step and my file is toast now.
