InDesign crashes and cannot be shut down until a hard reset is performed on Mac OS computers
My colleagues and I have been collaborating on an indesign document on a share drive. Whenever one of us has recently opened, made any changes, and then closed it - if the other person then opens it from their computer, it crashes InDesign and it cannot be "Force Closed" and also InDesign doesn't show up in the list of open applications within Mac OS Activity Monitor.
I'd post logs and screenshots, but (A) I don't know which logs or where to find them, and (B) our computers crashed hard after this, even preventing Electron and other apps from accessing the…

close book in event handler is out of sync
function closeBooks() {
var books = app.books.everyItem().getElements();
var i, ilen = books.length;for (i = 0; i < ilen; i++) { if (books[i].modified) { books[i].close(SaveOptions.ASK); } } alert('done');}
if you call the closeBooks function, everything works fine.
But if the function is used as a handler, the "done" message appears immediately, before the for loop complete.try adding a beforeQuit eventListener:
app.addEventListener('beforeQuit', closeBooks);and close InDesign having one or more modified books to see this (strange) behaviour.
The same function works fine if you target documents.

Unable to create a new document in Indesign 2021 (16.2.1)
Both Idesign 16.2.1 and 16.1 applications open to a black screen with a menu bar at the top. I am unable to create a new document unless I use the legacy settings under Edit. This issue started on June 21, 2021. All previous versions work fine.

Margin Issues When Threading Tables
InDesign 2021
Background: I'm working with an InDesign Template file that was set up with two pages (not facing) and a lengthy table in a text box.
Issue: Whenever I thread my text box with the table it contains, the table over stretches the margins on only the additional/threaded pages. It remains within the set margins on the original pages, and if you try to adjust the table on the overset pages, it shirks it on the original pages as well.
Why is this? Why is the table changing size (width wise) on only the threaded pages, and how do…

can't see content when opening file, covered with red or black blocks or lines
Issue started with upgrade to InDesign 16.2.1 that when I open file, content appears blank or covered with red or black blocks or lines. I have to repeatedly resize the window in order to work on the page. I also noticed issues when editing text. It only allows me to edit text that is one or two lines above where the cursor appears—very frustrating!

Applying character or paragraph style causes eventual crash
I make extensive use of the command-RETURN keyboard shortcut to apply character and paragraph styles. It seems that if I use this shortcut enough times, InDesign will crash. This happens several times a day, forcing me to reopen all my files and try to remember where I was.

Problem copying font from Acrobat Pro DC PDF (to Word and Indesign)
[Adobe Indesign 2021 - 16.3 / Suitcase Fusion 21.3.0]
Since the last update, I am unable to copy/paste from a PDF in Acrobat the accented characters of the French dictionary (ô, é, è, ç, à) to Word or Indesign, whatever the font is (Adobe font or personal font).
The glyph disappear when pasted.
The glyphs exists in the dictionary when looking at the panel in Indesign.

Uservoice shows error message and creates double posts
I've klicked on publish button and got a error message at my last post.
I thought maybe it's a problem with the size of the attachment, so I've tried an other file and got no problems at publishing.
Now I've seen, that the first two attempts, that were stopped by a error message of this system here, were published too.
So fyi, I didn't want to make a double or tripple post.Maybe you want to take a look at this behaviour too.

Weird Bug with Resize to Frame
Resize frame to content messes up and I'm not sure if it's something to do with a setting I have set since this doesn't always happen.
Basically, I'll have a frame around some content with text in it.
When I hit "resize frame to content" ctrl-alt-c, it resizes the frame to the full document width, which looks like the example.
I obviously expect the frame to resize to the content, not to be super wide like the entire document.

Unknown character inserted before hyphen in PDF export
InDesign v16.1
We have an InDesign file where the word "papier" is hyphenised by InDesign in this way "pa-pier", but after exporting in PDF, an unknown character was inserted before the hyphen and is shown as the letter "u" overlapping a displaced hyphen. Copy/pasting the word from the PDF gives this: pa�-pier
If the PDF is exported again, the problem is not reproduced.

index marker grep bug in findchangelist
The prelisted double to single space query in the findchangebylist.jsx also delets index markers between spaces.
While using the find-exchange window in ID to first look for [space]+(~I+)[space]+ to exchange it with [space]$1 works well enough, putting this in the findchangelist.txt, it deletes the index markers aswell. (note: [space] is only to visualize a regular space. I'm not writing it out in my queries.)
I also noticed, that they also only partially work in the regular GREP search in the F/E-window: using lookahead or lookbehind is only able to find the position of the marker but not the character that…
