1. Multi-character input from Indic keyboards failing

   Tested in InDesign 2023 18.5.1 and 2024 19.1, on Mac OS Ventura 13.4

   Several Indic keyboard layouts include keys that input a sequence of more than one character as a shortcut for typing the common –ra,, r–, or other syllabic forms that Unicode encodes as a sequence of multiple characters. So, for example, the Mac Sinhala keyboard assigns the following multi-character sequences to individual keys:

   [`] = ්‍ර (rakārānsaya, U+0DCA U+200D U+0DBB)

   [Shift]+[`] = ර්‍ (repaya, U+0DBB U+0DCA U+200D)

   [Shift]+[H] = ්‍ය (yansaya, U+0DCA U+200D U+0DBA)

   But in InDesign only the first character of each sequence is input, the second and third characters are not input. I have tested the same keyboards in multiple other programs, including Adobe programs such as Illustrator, and they work find everywhere except InDesign.

   I have found the same problem with Indic multi-character keys testing the Mac Hindi, Kannada, Sinhala, and Telugu keyboards, so it seems to be a general problem with keyboards that input more than one character from a single keystroke.

2. PDF comments imported incorrectly

   1. Both ID 2024 and 2023 (19.0.1 and 18.5.1)
   2. A PDF file created with ID 19, and was commented by the client. When I import PDF comments it sometimes crashes, and afterwords ID does import the comments, but most of them are "broken" and appear as "unmapped comments".
   3. Attached are screenshots from both versions after importing comments from same file. Dark screenshot is from version 19.

4. Glitching and Lagging

   Mac OS Sonoma 14.2.1 (as well as previous release)
   InDesign 19.01 (as well as previous releases)
   Apple M1 Max

   InDesign (and Illustrator) have become infuriating to use. All graphics and text are constantly glitching when scrolling or zooming. When selecting an element for some reason there is a lag where it things that I am clicking and dragging the element cause it to move. Sometimes it moves a pixel or get thrown across the page.

   I have tried the following
   In Preferences,
   Disabled Animated Zoom to no effect.
   Disabled GPU Performance to no effect.
   Changed Both Display Performance options to Fast, to no effect.
   I have reinstalled InDesign, to no effect.
   I have uninstalled all of Creative Cloud (including apps) ran the clean up application and then reinstalled, to no effect.
   I completely wiped and reinstalled a fresh copy of Mac OS, Installed Creative Cloud and InDesign only and still had the issue.

   Ive had this issue for at least a month but the bug reporting process is so dogshit I figured someone else would report it. I guess not.

6. InDesign crashes when I try to change styles with the preview box selected.

   I am running InDesign 19.0.1 x 64 on a Windows 10 machine

   When I try to edit a paragraph style that includes bullet points, and with the Preview box checked, my computer crashes. As you can see in the screen capture video, it is an intermittent issue, but InDesign crashes the majority of times I am trying to edit the bullet paragraph styles. It also happens when I try to change the Anchored Object Options in my Object Styles panel.

7. layer visibility of placed ai file is not updated when edited in Illustrator.

   When layer visibility of a placed Illustrator (.ai) file is edited in Illustrator, InDesign does not update. The layer that is not visible in the .ai file is still visible in the InDesign file.
   Manually placing the revised .ai file into InDesign shows the file correctly.

8. cursor stuck on hand

   My system has just updated InDesign to 19.1 (08/01/24) and I now have a grabber hand cursor appearing every time I try and click on anything in my file.

   This also happens if I have another tool selected such as text box. The tool icon appears but if I click on a text box the hand comes back. It's rendered doing anything in InDesign files useless. I can't find a setting for it and I have tried resetting preferences but it is still happening. My computer system is running Ventura 13.6.

   Does anyone have a work around?

10. Text disappearing while editing

    On my MacBook Air when I use InDesign and I am editing text it frequently disappears then when I zoom in again it will reappear. It only ever disappears from view, it is never lost but still very annoying. It will do this about every 4 words I type.

11. Behavior of "Change" button different than behavior of "Change All" button

    When finding and changing the paragraph or character style of some text to another paragraph or character style, using "Find" and "Change/Find" retains any local formatting (italic, bold, underline, superscript, etc.) in the affected paragraph. "Change All," however, removes all local formatting in the affected paragraphs.

13. Input Options for Place aren't remembered

    When I go to place a page from a pdf into an indesign document, the selection is set to transparent. I uncheck transparent, but I have to do that again each time I place a new page. The crop options don't stay either. Can't this be remembered?

14. Indesign file shows as modified upon opening a page with placed PNGs

    1. InDesign 19.0.1
    2. Steps to reproduce: open an InDesign file with a placed PNG.
    3. Expected result: file opens, no asterisk appearing next to file name.
    4. Actual result: file opens, PNG re-renders in high quality, asterisk suddenly appears next to file name.

    As of this morning, every time I open a file that has placed PNGs, InDesign flags the document as modified, with the asterisk and asks me if I want to save the document before closing, even I made zero edits. To give even more credence, it only happens when I navigate to a page that has a linked PNG file in it. If I open a file and there are no PNGs on the page, no asterisk (JPGs and other placed graphics are just fine). The minute I "page down" and hit a page that has a placed PNG, it "redraws/re-renders" the PNG (I have high quality previews turned on, and when I get to those pages, the PNGs look a little low-res at first; you can see the dark blue progress bar at the bottom appear as it redraws the preview and then the image looks better once the high quality preview is finished drawing) and then, BAM, asterisk appears. Nothing was modified other than InDesign redrawing/updating the preview.

    I found some older forum topics and a previous bug report from 2018 (IIRC) in which that very thing was being investigated, which is what led me to figure out if that was the culprit for me, as well. It does appear to be so.

15. Footnotes won't number sequentially; cannot select multiple or all footnotes

    When I place a Word document with footnotes into InDesign, the footnote paragraphs become separated from each other. I cannot click and drag to highlight text from more than one footnote, and I cannot use Command>A to select all the footnotes. Command>A only highlights all the text from the single selected footnote. Furthermore, the numbered paragraph style applied to the footnote paragraphs won't recognize that there was a previous paragraph flowing to it, so each paragraph is numbered as number 1. Even though "continue from previous" is selected in the numbering options. Also, the numbering style from Word imports as just a text number at the beginning of the first sentence of each paragraph, rather than being converted into the numbering of the paragraph.

16. ID 2023 and 2024 issues with variable weight fonts

    In addition to the odd weight mix on screen display or the incorrect spacing for bolder faces on variable fonts in 2024, variable fonts do not outline correctly. The outlined objects do not create compound paths correctly for character elements that join (example: bottom bar of lower case e crosses over onto spine of letter) causing effect and trap errors.

    UPDATE: 19.1 update installed. The font weight issue appears to be fixed, but the font outlines are still an issue, as I reported to Adobe in the bug reports. The characters when outlines do create compound paths, they create overlapping objects, which cause several different issues when trapping or working with outlined fonts.

    ADOBE PAY ATTENTION!

18. dual monitors - UI stays the size of the small monitor even when I drag it back to the large HD monitor

    Windows 10

    Monitor 1 is my Huion display tablet 16”
    Monitor 2 is main 32" Samsung monitor

    If I open InDesign with "extend these displays" checked in the windows display settings and then drag the program back to Monitor 2 (32" Samsung) - the work area is smaller and I cannot drag it to fill the screen. Also the text for all dialog boxes is too small and the program will not release from the settings of the Huion tablet.

    I need to be able to have InDesign behave like Photoshop - which opens up with the same scaling and text size for menus and normal sized dialog boxes on either monitor.

    This is a huge issue for me. I need to use the Huion tablet for Photoshop retouching and also need to be able to view the long document in InDesign on the larger monitor to view the original at a normal viewable size.

    Can you please fix this?

    I am not sure why it would be different for InDesign. Photoshop works seamlessly and retains the same appearance when dragged between the two monitors.

    It would be great if we could select which monitor to open individual programs on - but I am not sure how that would work.

    Thanks.

19. interactive pdf export hangs forever

    I must use ID 2022 in order to export interactive PDF because ID 2024 is impossible to use with Hebrew files. see here: https://indesign.uservoice.com/forums/601180-adobe-indesign-bugs/suggestions/47461556-you-have-screwed-up-hebrew-in-indesign-19-0-1

20. IDML export = master page items shift

    When a file is exported as IDML, master/parent page items have shifted. Happens most consistently on pages that are “based on” other pages. This happens whether an object style with positioning has been used or not, but is generally worse when positioning has been defined.

    This has been a persistent issue through the past several versions of ID.
