  6. Link Your Canon Printer to Wifi Wirelessly

    The first step in connecting a Canon printer to WiFi is to locate the Wifi button on the printer. You can double-check the button by consulting the handbook that came with your printer. Now press and hold the Wifi button until you see the Wifi lamp begin to flash blue. Release the Wifi button when the Wifi lamp flashes two times. Go to your access point and hit the WPS push button to continue with the Canon printer wireless setup. The printer will then begin to display the Connecting status, indicating that it is looking for your router. The Wifi…

  9. 인디자인 윗첨자가 들어 있는 indd 파일을 txt 파일로 내 보내기를 할 때

    인디자인에서 윗첨자가 들어 있는 indd 파일을

    txt 파일로 내 보내기를 할 때

    현재는 윗첨자 부분이 구분이 안 되고, 일반 문자로 처리가 되어서,

    txt 파일로 만들어 지고 있습니다.

    이 부분에서도 txt 파일로 뽑아지는 문서에서도 윗첨자로 뽑아지도록

    프로그램이 보완이 되면 더 좋겠습니다.

    고맙습니다.

  12. Font baseline grid

    The baseline grid start value for Open Sans is different if the font is used from Adobe than if it's used from Google.
    This results in changes in layout which is very annoying. Also, when telling indesign to fit the box to text, the box is unnecessary larger at the top.
    Before the 17.0 InDesign update that wasn't the case.

    Someone else complained about this in November - https://community.adobe.com/t5/indesign-discussions/text-boxes-need-to-be-enlarged-after-update/m-p/... - the issue there is marked as solved, but it wasn't solved actually.

    The issue started with 17.0, actually i was really hoping it would have been addresses in this…

  13. Indesign can't search tagged folders

    Indesign (17.1 Build) will wrongly show empty folders when I select a Finder tagged folder.

    What can I do? I need this function. It's a big timesaver.

  15. Accessibility issues tagging order and H1 tags not showing at all for screen readers

    h2 tags are the only tags that are showing for screen readers any other of the h tags aren't working. I've tried everything to get it working. Made sure tags are correct within indesign, made sure export tags are also set up correctly, tried doing some after work in acrobat with the structuring. People within the community have said it's been like this for the last few releases. Could this be looked into

  16. Roboto fonts not working in indesign

    I have tried everything to add Roboto fonts to creative cloud to be used in InDesign but nothing works. First, I click on the "f" in the upper right hand corner, and it just spins and spins saying loading. The next thing I tried was going to Adobe Fonts website and 'Activiating all Robot Fonts." Even though it shows as activated, Whenever I try to export my design it says following fonts (Roboto family) aren't currently available.

  18. Linked Image Canvas Resampling Pixelated Issue

    When a linked image canvas size greatly exceeds the image frame size, the linked image is pixelated in both the InDesign preview and the PNG export. JPG exports do not exhibit this issue.

    Please note in the attached images two different linked PSD files. The file on left is cropped to the extent of the rasterized letter 'a'. In the file on the right, the rasterized 'a' has the same pixel dimensions as the first, but the Photoshop document canvas is much larger. This results in a poorly resampled PNG export.

  19. Printing Number 10 Envelope - Left side of envelope margins are not respected

    When envelope media is selected, I lose some of the leftmost characters. If I only change the media to letter(8.5x11 inch) media, the characters appear as expected.

  20. AppleGothic font is not displaying all characters correctly. The accented characters sometimes do not display in Indesign although they work

    When using AppleGothic, some accented characters that work ok in MS WOrd do not display in Indesign
    eg Yọ awọn ti ń ṣegbe
    this line of text does not come into Indesign correctly
