Whenever I use psd files in the links the pdf export file becomes huge like 10x bigger than when I a flatted version
I have a digital catalogue and in working with lots of psd in the links. To create a small pdf I have to instead of links the psd, to export to png and than put it in the indesign. This is a hassle when I have to edit the psd because i hav to take so many extra steps for a minor adjustment. Instead Indesign shoulde be handling the images conversion and flatening. And yes, I'm checking the export only appearce on the export.
The app is up to date and recently I had to format my pc so reinstalling…1 vote -

InDesign v19.5: Data Merge Problems with Diacritical
InDesign v19.5: Data Merge Problems with Diacritical
I wanted to use "Data Merge" again after a while, but I found that it no longer works as it did in the previous version (v18). In the old version (v18), "Data Merge" worked correctly with diacritics, but in the current version (v19.5), it does not, and it's definitely not a font issue (I’ve tried all of them). The ".csv" file is exactly the same as the one used before, and when I use the old version, everything works as it should. The problem occurs with certain characters, such as "Š", "Č" and…

pdf import corrections
Indesign 19,.5 Imac 2020. When there are many corrections in a file it would be great if after accepting the correction, the correction would be deleted from the list of corrections, because Indesign can become very slow with 700+ corrections. And whats the use of keeping it in the list after accepting the correction.

Deleting spreads takes many minutes
The time it takes to delete spreads increases with the number of spreads being deleted. To delete 200 spreads in one go, it takes ten to twenty minutes. This operation should be instantaneous.

Footnotes do not honor "keep" settings
Title says it all. If a footnote paragraph style contains "keep" settings and split footnotes are enabled, footnotes ignore the keep settings. It should be possible to (a) allow split footnotes, and (b) stipulate that at least two lines must be carried over to the second page, but this is not possible. Keeps are ignored.

GREP styles do not work in text variables
The title should say it all. When setting a text variable in a paragraph style that includes GREP styles, the GREP styles are not applied to the text variable. This is a severe limitation of the variable functionality, and is similar to many other reported bugs concerning variables, the upshot of which is that variables need to behave more like ordinary text. This is one more instance in which this is true.

BUG: Word import: Styles
InDesign 19.5 x64 (Win) 2024
When importing Word files wrong styles are applied:
- with no frame selected a style is chosen (p.a. Style-A)
- click in a frame, selected Style is different (p.e. Style-B)
- Word is imported (formatting removed, local overrides kept) -> Text (even if cursor is within text formatted in Style-B) is formatted in Style-A
This is bad p.e. when italics is needed as local override, and the wrong style is italics too (then evereything is italcs ...).

Keyboard shortcuts to resize assets suddenly stop working
InDesign V19.5 on MacOS Sequoia 15.0.1.
Keyboard shortcuts to resize assets on a spread stop working once a document has been open for a while. Shortcuts such as CMD+ALT+Click to resize container box and the asset within, while maintaining proportions, CMD+click to resize container, while maintaining proportions, don't work.
The only fix I've found is to restart my Mac. Closing and reopening InDesign doesn't fix the issue.

"Failed to place PDF" with a PDF file created in Canva
Trying to import a client supplied PDF, created in the paid version of Canva and saved as a CMYK print quality PDF (not flattened). Will not place into InDesign. I've tried various and no import options and it does not work. I have placed this PDF into Adobe Illustrator and Affinity Publisher 2 without issue.

review search
When sharing a review: On the review web page, there is no longer a possibility to search for text. This makes reviewing long documents with many pages nearly impossible. Reviewers have to manually go through all the pages to find the content that's relevant.
Until around mid-2024, it was possible to use the browser's search function (CTRL+F). This has been disabled. Even if enforced (entering search through the browser's menu), it does not work.
To me, having no possibility to search for text in a document that should be reviewed, sounds like a severe, obvious oversight and should be addressed…

Bug: mixed open type numbers
If a text is set in a paragraph format using medieval numbers and using character format with versal number for footnotes, sets the number with two digits wrong: the first will be versal, the second medieval (see image).

cross-reference
Bonjour,
Je travaille présentement sur un long document dans lequel j'ai intégré un lexique à la fin. J'utilise des cibles hyperliens pour afficher les entrées du lexique à partir du texte au moyen de références croisées.
Or, les cibles hyperliens disparaissent aléatoirement et fréquemment. Si j'essaie de réparer tous les liens brisés, je n'arrive pas à terminer toutes les réparations avant que des liens réparés soient à nouveau brisés.

Screen tearing while scrolling
I'm having issues with screen tearing in InDesign 2023 and 2024. I've tried resizing UI, testing an earlier version of InDesign (hence 2023), making sure my computer was set to best performance over battery saver, etc. Inevitably when I scroll around, lines of text will jump around or break. I'm operating a brand new windows 11 computer with 16gb of RAM, and this is a two page InDesign document with one image, so...

I expect "hide closed ideas" to hide the closed ideas, but they are all still visible.
