1. fit spread in window

   I want Fit Spread in Window to work, all the time, every time!!!!!!!!!!!! I am using version 21.0.1 on macOS 26.2. This defect has been around for a long time, and many people have complained about it. My office colleagues all have the same issue. It works today, and then not tomorrow. It works for 5 minutes in one file, and then suddenly stops working. A Page layout program should be able to display pages! I want to use Fit Spread in Window every single day, and I am so disappointed that this defect goes on and on and on with every new version of InDesign. Please, for once and for all, fix it.

3. PDF Kommentare und Share for Review angleichen

   Ansich ist das ja eine gute Sache, aber warum unterscheiden sich die Kommentarfunktionen zu denen im Adobe Acrobat.
   wenn ich PDF Kommentare aus einen PDF importiere, kann ich die per Mausklick übernehmen. Bei der überprüfen Funktion geht das nicht.
   Bitte die Kommentarfunktionen aus Acrobat genau so auch im Share for Review übernehmen.

4. Unable to Place Illustrator Files from Adobe Projects

   When using Adobe Projects with Illustrator and Indesign 2026, Indesign does not recognize .AIC files as "compatible" files when attempting to place in an Indesign document. Indesign Version - 21.0.2, Illustrator Version - 30.1.

   Create Illustrator document, save as Adobe Cloud Document, or in Adobe Project Folder
   Attempt to place document by Navigating to "File", "Place" or by pressing CMD+D
   Illustrator files will not be listed as available
   Selecting "On Your Computer" and navigating to an Illustrator file will allow it to be placed

   Expected Result:
   Being able to place a file from Adobe Project.

   Actual Result:
   None.

5. Data merge icc

   InDesign 21.0.2
   During a data merge I exported to PDF and chose single pages. Associated PDF ICC profile is a v4, so I received this dialog 100 times -- 1 for each individual page. Probably not necessary.

   Under Review  ·  AdminSanyam Talwar (Senior Lead Software Engineer, Adobe InDesign) responded

   Hi,

   Thank you for reporting the issue. We have been able to reproduce the issue, and it is currently under investigation.

   Analysis

   • We have been able to reproduce the issue on Windows, and it is currently under investigation.
   • The root cause is that the UNDO stack is getting purged and the issue is getting manifested in History Panel.
   • The issue is intermittently(depends on when InDesign chooses to purge the stack) getting reproduced on Windows machine only. The issue is not observed on Macintosh.
   • It has started to be reported by customer recently 14-Dec-2025 onwards. A Windows update has been pushed on 09 December 2025 for Win11 23H2, 24H2 and 25H2. Refer to https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/topic/december-9-2025-kb5071417-os-build-22631-6345-5b7b15d8-96a2-4c8f-a61d-b5e1bc9618f8

9. Object Menu, Arrange for Text blocks not working

   InDesign version 21.0.2 x64

   I have used Adobe InDesign since 1997 (first introduced to me at school while I was learning Quark), more full-time since 2002 (worked at a newspaper). I have always been able to use the Object menu to either move objects in front of or in back of others. This still seems to work in 2025 with actual objects, i.e., rectangles, ovals, etc. It no longer works as of today with text blocks. In my remote conversation with Manoj, the only workaround is to either type my text into a color block and reposition it, or perhaps shorten my other color block and add text on top of it. This happened after a recent Windows 11 update, but, the program worked as expected until this morning. That leads me to believe this was a deliberate change by Adobe. That's ridiculous, in my opinion. WHY would Adobe remove a key feature from InDesign's page layout function? Please return this function - it's important for those who spend much of their time doing page layouts for clients. Thank you.

10. Find/Change saved queries lose numeric precision for indent values

    Version:
    Adobe InDesign 21.0.2
    macOS 26.2
    Issue also observed in much earlier versions (since CS5.5).
    Steps to reproduce:
    Create a document with paragraph units set to millimeters.
    Create a paragraph with a left indent of exactly 5 mm.
    Open Find/Change.
    In Find Text, set Left Indent to 5 mm by typing it manually.
    Run Find – the paragraph is found.
    Save this Find/Change query.
    Reload the saved query.
    Run Find again.
    Expected result:
    The saved query should find the same paragraphs as when the value is entered manually.
    Actual result:
    After reloading the saved query, the paragraph is not found.
    Additional details:
    Via the scripting API the difference can be observed.
    Manual entry via UI:
    app.findTextPreferences.leftIndent = 14.1732283464567
    After reloading saved query:
    app.findTextPreferences.leftIndent = 14.17322834
    The reduced numeric precision causes the query to fail.
    This appears to be a precision loss when persisting Find/Change query settings.
    The issue affects both UI and scripting workflows.
    Using paragraph or character styles does not prevent this issue, as it is related to how numeric values are stored and restored in saved queries.

    Version:
    Adobe InDesign 21.0.2
    macOS 26.2
    Issue also observed in much earlier versions (since CS5.5).
    Steps to reproduce:

11. Text disappears when i select it

    Version: InDesign 21.0.2

    Often when I select text, it disappears, only to become visible again after zooming or changing the viewing mode.
    I haven't found a way to reproduce the problem, it seems to be random.

12. pannels

    sometimes panels like Links, Layer are not opening by command or clicking in Window menu, then I got a solution for this issue i.e. change the workspace to another and comeback to your old one, it will help you. But it'll be an issue for everyone else. So please solve this issue in next update.

13. When opening a new file, I cannot enter custom width and height numbers.

    I'm using Windows 11, version 25H2, and InDesign version 21.0.2.
    I find it very strange and inconvenient that, while I can enter custom width and height in Adobe Illustrator (version 30.0), I can't do so in InDesign.
    My keyboard is working fine.

15. When exporting to pdf documents are appearing glitched - 2026 update

    Recently updated Indesign to the 2026 version and so has the rest of the team in my company. We import a lot of InDesign files into our other InDesign documents so when the original file gets updated, we are able to easily relink the document . We have had to go through and convert all the InDesign files to the 2026 version but this is where it gets tricky. If I have converted or updated an original file and re-link it to my document, I have no issues when converting my document to a pdf. All images appear clear etc. If my colleague then goes and uses one of these updated files in her document and coverts it to pdf, the pages are all glitched unless she personally goes in and updates the original file again. This is causing major issues because we have to update the original file every time we both want to use it in our document.

16. Deformation under proportional scaling

    We have a "round box" object. The dimensions along the x and y axes are the same. The page is in "rotated by 90°" mode. I move this circle to a corner so that it partially extends beyond the dimensions of the page. Then we scale it while holding down the shift key. At the same time, smart guides are turned on. The edges of the circle begin to deform, trying to stick to some reference line. As a result, the dimensions of the circle along the axes become unequal. The difference is only after the decimal point, but it is there.

17. Accessible PDF: Linked Figures mistagging

    Linking an image in 2026 and exporting it as a tagged PDF generates an unpleasant Tag structure.
    The structure now is:
    <Figure>
    --<Link>
    ----OBJR
    --Content

    Tags inside of <Figure> will normally ignored by any assistive technology. So the Link will not be present to the end user.

    This is a change to InDesign 2025 and before, where the tagging was properly:
    < Link>
    --OBJR
    --<Figure>
    ----Content

    Please change toe behavior back to the way of InDesign 2025 an earlier.

18. Text Shifting

    Hello, our team has been having an issue of text randomly shifting within the text box. The entire baseline appears to shift down whenever I type in the text box, whenever I do find/ replace text, and when pasting within the text box. The Text frame options remain the same but the text appears to shift. Sometimes only half the text shifting down. This is mainly happening with a text box that is turned sideways in banners we have on the page. This seems to happen across all documents new and old. This is on version 21.0.2

20. Not loading cloud links > files don't work!!

    I'm sorry for this words, but I'm really ****** with the new update on indesign:

    I'm sorry but the new Update for Indesign is total ****. It's not loading my links from cloud servers and also I cannot update it via the program. So I have to start searching EACH document in the file (are you totally crazy???) to find out which link is missing because it's on a cloud server. I don't know what you did there. But everybody right now is working with cloud servers and it cannot just me going crazy right now because the files aren't working and sometimes I'm not able to export files.
    Please please fix this quickly, its horrible!
