1. Text originated from MS Word yields problematic results when exported to HTML (excessive <span> statements)

   I’ve stumbled upon a bug evident in text originated from MS-Word, which affects the HTML structure when exported from InDesign. Originally I encountered it with Hebrew text in heavily-style-driven paragraphs, however I re-created it in a completely “clean” style environment as well:

   (1) Create a new file in MS-Word. Type some text into it (as “Lorem Ipsum”).

   (2) Copy the text and Paste into InDesign.

   (3) Reset the Paragraph Style; then apply a Character style to the text (it could be a Character style with no attributes).

   (4) Paste the same text into Notepad, then Copy it again from Notepad into InDesign as a second paragraph (you could just as well re-type it in InDesign; the idea is to have an identical text created solely in InDesign rather than pasted from Word, to avoid any added hidden additional data which may be there).

   (5) Export to HTML.

   The paragraph pasted into InDesign from Word – even though it has been reset – seems to cause the HTML export process to re-state a <span> section for the Character Style – even though all of the text should be with the same attributes and the same character style – that is, the </span> of one character style is immediately followed by the next <span> of the same character style.

   The next paragraph, containing the same text copied and pasted through a “cleanup mediator” (in the form of Notepad, for example) does not cause the same behaviour.

   I could not find any difference in the attributes associated with either paragraph from within InDesign.

   This makes the resulting structure of a text originated from Word much more cumbersome; in addition, at least when dealing with RTL text (such as Hebrew) this may cause problems in alignment – especially when used in floating text elements (through css).

2. hyperlink conflict when exporting epub

   Indesign 16.01
   manual back-linking of endnotes: since indesign does not generate back links from endnotes in exported pdfs (unlike in epub), I made a manual backlink by defining a text anchor on the endnote reference in the text and hyperlinking the number of the endnote to that anchor.
   After doing this however, if i then try to export as an epub it seems the manual hyperlink causes a conflict with the epub export, which results in the program freezing indefinitely requiring manual shutdown by ending task in Windows (10. 20H2)

5. InDesign stalls with with new MacBook Air (M1, 2020)

   InDesign is stalling (pausing for up to 30 second) regularly on my new MacBook Air with the Silicon M1 chip. I know it is an Intel Based program but I don't think the emulator is working. Shouldn't Rosetta 2 download automatically when I use InDesign? I presume you (the good folks at Adobe) are working to make it native to the new chip. Happy Holidays. Seth

6. iCloud drive

   inDesign thinks links are gone when files are being stored in iCloud Drive (even though the cloud version is still in the same folder on my computer). Please allow inDesign to download linked files in iCloud Drive automatically so I don't have to download and relink manually.

7. PDF exports spreads when set to single pages

   In ID2021, when I export this document as single pages in interactive mode, it exports as spreads. When I save as IDML and open in 2020, it works.

9. On Export - "Save As" name field not consistently highlighted by default

   1. 15.1.3 version
   2. Open InDesign, open file, click on a page, CMD E to export.
   3. Expect "SAVE AS" field highlighted to be able to change export name, as with previous versions.
   4. Sometimes nothing appears to be highlighted, taking hitting TAB several times to get to the "SAVE AS" field. However, sometimes it is highlighted - so this is not a consistant problem - as sometimes it does come up highlighted. It does seem that when I first open a file / export - that it is not highlighted, but after that, it does come up correctly highlighted.

   This is not a consistant problem, which is what makes it a problem. You never know if you can just type a new file name, or do you have to grab the mouse to get to the SAVE AS field, or try to TAB to the field, not really knowing how many times it takes to TAB over.

   Thank you!

11. save window so small and compact

    The new version of InDesign's save window by default is small and compact. Why did it change? I work on Server's and very robust paths. it's a pain to always expand the window to just see further down a path to save.

13. Arrows not working in Effects Dialog Box / Drop Shadow section

    In InDesign 16.0.1 x64 in the Drop Shadow section of the Effects Dialog Box, there are some values where the arrows are not working. They are 1) Distance, 2) X Offset, 3) Y Offset and 4) Size (marked on the attached file).
    These values should change(increase/decrease) either by pressing the arrows on the keyboard or the little arrows to the left of the value. This isn't happening in the latest version of InDesign. I looked at other effects sectios and the arrows seem to work everywhere else.

14. InDesign Slow in MacOS Catalina when using a calibrated screen profile.

    I am an experienced user of Adobe products for over 20 years. My current subscription is to Adobe Creative Suite (full). I am using a Mac Pro running MacOS 10.15.7 (Catalina) on NVMe SSD with 48 GB RAM and AMD 5700 XT GPU with 8GB VRAM. All Adobe apps are up to date.

    If I use a calibrated screen profile, InDesign becomes extremely slow, so that every selection of a menu item, every key-press, every pan or drag, becomes incredibly slow.

    This fault is independent of document size (it happens with a new document, with one blank page). It is also consistently and instantly repeatable. To be clear on this: if I open System Preferences > Displays > Color and switch between a calibrated profile and the default "Apple RGB" InDesign switches between slow and fast respectively.

    I have changed InDesign preferences with no effect. I have also deleted caches, preferences and application support files in ~/Library, also with no effect. I have uninstalled InDesign and the whole Creative Suite completely, removing all trace from my system, and reinstalled them, also with no effect.

    This issue affects Adobe InDesign and Illustrator. It does not appear to affect Photoshop. It does not appear to affect products from other developers either (eg: Capture One Pro), therefore I believe the cause to be something with those two Adobe products.

    I would be grateful for a fix, or even to have your assurance that this is a known issue, and a solution is in the pipeline.

15. IndexOptions are lost in IDML when you use styles in a style group

    Version Indesign 2020
    Steps to reproduce.
    1. Create a document with an index
    2. Create styles for the index in a style group
    3. Generate an index with the styles that are in a style group
    4. Save as IDML
    5. Open the IDML
    6. Try to generate the index

    Expected result: The settings/options in 'Generate Index' are kept as they were in the original file.

    Actual Result: The options are reset to the default styles, not the styles inside the style group.

16. Converting footnotes to endnotes removes inline styling

    InDesign 16.0.1
    macOS 10.14.6

    Currently if using the 'Convert Footnotes and Endnotes' function, any inline styling of the text contained within the footnote is being removed. Eg text which is formatted as italic is being converted into non-italic etc.

    Fortunately this doesn't appear to affect any character styles which have been applied, but it still creates a very high risk of losing formatting.

    Ideally conversion from footnotes/endnotes should not alter the content.

17. Option bar on Save and Place windows

    Since the recent update to 2021, when I save, export, or place image, the window that opens is so small and there are now options at the bottom that I don't need and the area to select a file is only big enough to see 3 or 4 files.

    Can you make this window larger so you don't have to expand the window size or hide the options every time? It gets monotonous.
