Indesign CC 2018 crashes while selecting the type tool or font option from type menu
I am running Adobe InDesign CC 2018 13.0 x64. Whenever I open a new document and select the type tool, InDesign crashes. Same thing happens while clicking font option from type menu. Also, any premade INDD/INDT files aren't opening, it crashes every time. I have reinstalled several times, trashed preferences but of no use. I am running a Windows 10 version 1909 64 bit with OS built 18363.1801.

Bug: file conversion from newer ID version fails when done in a specific way
ID version: 17.1
System: Windows 10
Steps:
1. Double-click an INDD saved by a newer version of ID, perhaps 18, while ID isn't running yet.
2. ID will start, try to open the file and come ip with the conversion dialog. If you then click "Convert", it won't actually convert the file, but do nothing. In this case you would have to close the conversion window and while ID is now running, double-click the INDD again.1 vote -

Copy & paste within a numbered list can cause wrong numbering
If you create a numbered list which runs over 2 or more columns and copy some text within the list from one paragraph to another the numbering changes. In my example you have 2 times 1 in the list.
To make it even more crazy this only happens when you use the Adobe Single-line composer. If you work with the Adobe ParagraphComposer there's no problem at all.
If you change the text frame from 2 columns to 1 column and back the error disappears as well.

inDesign 18.3.0.50 often impossible to save document
inDesign 18.3.0.50 often impossible to save document. Very annoying because to continue I'm forced to close the file / application and therefore I lose all the changes.

Adobe Digital Editions opens links in unsupported version of Windows Explorer
InDesign ver. 18.2.1. ADE opens hyperlinks in Windows Explorer, which is retired and out of support. There doesn't seem to be a way to specify a different browser in which to open links. I am using the most recent version of ADE (4.5.11.187303).

Package-PDF and Export-PDF create different results
Mac OS Monterey 12.6 / Adobe InDesign 18.3
Function "Create Package" with a PDF and selected job.options (PDF Presets) creates PDF with wrong downsampling for images.
Function "Export PDF" with same PDF Preset creates PDF with expected quality
Why is there a difference?

INDD 2023 continuous crashes
It's happening very often that, while I'm working on some files (it happened with many different ones, not just the same one), INDD suddenly crashes with no explanation. I'm pretty bored about this thing so I hope you can say me something in order to solve it. I've a very powerful computer so I'm sure it's not something related to "GPU fatigue". Wish you a good day

Drop Cap size, is based on next character
Indesign 2023 Hebrew Version
Macbook Pro M1When i create a drop cap, the size of the drop cap is changing based on the next character after the drop cap, it only happens when the leading is fixed, when the leading is auto, it just moves up and down based on the size of the next character.
As you can see in the attached images, both paragraphs have the same style but when i change the size of the character after the drop cap the size or the leading of the drop cap changes2 votes -
Table of Contents does not generate correctly when styles are in a table
I ran into an issue with generating a Table of Contents when the Paragraph Styles it's told to look for are in the header rows of tables.
In my stripped down example of this bug, I have a series of Tables with header rows that have the Paragraph Style I set the Table of Contents to look for. It seems depending on if the table overflows and must continue on the next page, it won't always show up in the Table of Contents and it will get skipped over.
So in my example, Table 1 begins on Page 2 and…

Line Jumps by Half its Stroke Weight in InDesign CC (Version 18.3)
In InDesign CC (Version 18.3), there is a persistent bug where a line jumps unexpectedly by half its stroke weight when attempting to change its length. This issue has been present for some time and occurs consistently. Enabling or disabling the scaling options in the settings does not have any effect on this behavior.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open InDesign CC (Version 18.3) on the affected system.
2. Create a new document page or open an existing document.
3. Draw a line with any length and stroke weight.
4. Select the line to edit it.
5. Try to change the…2 votes -

can't select objects
ID version 18.3
I have a massive page with a lot of objects, and now I can't select any of them. It is as if every object is locked; effectively the page now behaves like a pdf. I have tried to unlock all objects, over and over, and although "Unlock all on spread" is not greyed out, it does not respond. I have tried quitting and restarting, to no avail. Is it because my system just can't cope with the size? This is months of work down the pan...1 vote -
InDesign Beta doesn't open my file
When Indesign Beta is open and I want to open an additional file, Indesign doesn't open the new file, but seems to ignore tha prompt to open the additional file. If the program is closed, the files will open the program and pop up, but if the program is already open with or without a file, InDesign ignores the opening of the new file.

Across platform seamless real-time collaboration
I think this issues is raised with the co-auther note, but it's slightly ambigious what's meant. Therefor I'll just restate that an option to collaborate and work seamless across workstations in the same InDesign document would be very helpful. Something similar to the Office-package in this regard would be amazing, where you can see what and where the other collaborators are editing and in what sections. It's a hassle to have multiple copies and remember to copy every edit into a masterfile in the end.

InDesign 18.3 Arabic variable font bug (MacOS)
In an Arabic variable font it is not possible to apply the font variation to a single glyph without breaking the shaping. In Illustrator 27.5 the expected behaviour (variation of an individual glyph without breaking shaping) works.
