User Interface half in English (default) and half in Russian
When I go to my drop-down menu one of them is in Russian.
The only issue I have found is with the dropdown under Type (English) > Text Variable (English) > Insert Veriable (Russian). Only in Russian on some documents I open, not all.
I updated my InDesign to v 17.21 today.

InDesign 2022 mising table strokes after opening the idml file
After opening idml files in InDesign 2022 (v. 17.2) some table strokes are set to 0 pt while they should be stroked at 1 pt. There's no such issue with InDesign 2021 which opens the idml correct. Any ideas are welcomed.

Convert Footnotes and Endnotes problem and a bonus scripting problem with special characters
Indesign 17 on MacOs 12.3.1
Convert Footnotes and Endnotes does not work when the footnotes does not have a footnote number.
I have an Indesign document with footnotes.
In each footnote I have removed the footnote number and the following tab character. (~F\t)I need these footnotes to be endnotes but this is not possible with the command "Convert Footnotes and Endnotes".
Without the footnote number in the footnotes the command/script does not recognise the footnotes as being footnotes.
They are however still footnotes and I can continue working with them as footnotes and also address them via scripting but…

PDF export fails when placed svg has a smlns:sxlink attribute
There's an error in exporting to PDF from Indesign when you have an SVG placed, and that SVG contains an smlns:sxlink attribute - this makes it impossible to create the PDF (and thus, use the software to create your document).
The 'PDF export failed' error message doesn't give any info on how to fix the issue. And the default .svg export from Illustrator adds in that .svg attribute... so I create my graphics in Illustrator... but then they prevent my InDesign file from creating documents! Not great.
If you remove the part that says:
xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"Then the opening…

Out of a blue, white text on colour background stopped showing in exported pdf's. InDesign 17.2
It is the same exact document I exported into pdf 12 days prior with no issues. NOTHING has been changed other than the background colour & tracking of the paragraph style. And NO, this is NOT an overprint issue, I have read that thread through. And NO, this is NOT a version issue either, the same exact version. I could not get this report through with screenshots attached.
And oh, this is not only a pdf-related issue, it's the same thing with exported jpg.

Adobe InDesign 2022: Contents with multiple levels not in alphabetical order

Table of Contents problem on right-facing page on spread
I use two levels of ToC (Main and sub headings). On right-facing pages in a spread, the main heading (TOC-1) appears below the sub-headings (TOC-2) in the Table Of Contents.
Consider the two attached files. The page shown in Toc problem-1 is a right-facing page in the book. The Level 1 heading is "Audible Signals," and the three Level 2 subheads are "Train Whistle/Horn Signals, Train Buzzer Signals, and Tower Whistle/Horn signals. This SHOULD appear with Audible Signals as the top-level and the other three below it. On a LEFT FACING page it works correctly. On a right-facing page it…

Can't create snap to baseline style
I just paid for and downloaded ID 17.2.1 after using cs6 and need to meet a deadline for a four page newsletter. I can't seem to find any buttons whatsoever that allow me to create a body style with the text snapping to the baseline. My text is all over the shop. Did I just do a faulty download, or am I missing something? Where is the option for baseline snapping or not snapping?
1 voteAlign to Baseline Grid option is available in the Paragraph panel.
It is also available in the Paragraph Style dialog under the Indents and Spacing section - Align to Grid.
Hope you find this useful.

importing multiple illustrator artboards into empty frames no longer works
With the 2021 version of indesign I could 'load' my cursor with an illustrator file and select 'all' artboards, then i could 'drop' each artboard into an empty indesign frame - this no longer works in the 2022 version (17.2). Instead it just drops the first image in and the loaded cursor 'cancels'.

Trackpad pinch to zoom stops working
I'm working on a new 2021 Mac and across all adobe programs pinch to zoom on the track pad will often stop working. I then have to turn the gestures settings on and off either within the app or on System Preferences (it varies on which one works) to reset it. Or I have to quit the app and restart, which is very disruptive to my workflow.
I am up to date in creative cloud as of today – 22/04/22

Bug: Cross-ref tooltip changes arbitrarily
Windows 10, Indesign 17.1
What happens: when checking cross-refs for pointing to other documents only the tooltip can help. The video shows that the cross-refs are pointing to level 3 or level 4 headlines, but only with the level 4 headline it would show on what page the cross-ref is placed. With level 3 it just shows the cross-ref text.1 vote -
Tab order window is not resizable
I design a lot of long forms inside of InDesign. Part of this process is getting the tab order correct. The Tab Order window only displays 9 rows and is not resizable. This makes at a glance review of the tab order impossible.
Additionally, dragging and dropping rows above/below each other is broken. The blue line that signifies where I am about to drag something to does not always match up with where the drop actually happens. Sometimes it can be above another field.
Similarly, if I move a block of rows at once, the view of the window will…

InDesign 2022 PDF Export Failure with macOS Monterey
Since updating to macOS Monterey v. 12.3.1, InDesign (V 17.2) will frequently fail to export a PDF to a data server. I will attempt to export, and it will fail, but when I export to the downloads folder, it works just fine. That issue also extends to when I create an imposed job using the plug-in HP SmartStream. The temporary file will load on the server, but once SmartStream completes, it will disappear. Exporting to the downloads folder works for that too. There's no rhyme or reason as to when it happens, and I never had this issue before updating…
