1. [ID-4265787]InDesign 20.4.0 and above freezes when connected with Enterprise VPN

   Impossible to work with the latest version of InDesign 20.5. The screen freezes after a few second work. Only "end task" on Task manager is closing the program. (Working on PC under Windows 11 Enterprise)
   Only solution in the meantime is to switch to Version 19.5.5.

   FIXED  ·  AdminSanyam Talwar (Senior Lead Software Engineer, Adobe InDesign) responded

   The fix of the issue is now available in the latest InDesign 2026(v21.0.0.192). We recommend you upgrade to the latest version for the fix.

2. stroke window - drop down menu options

   Indesign 20.5
   In the stroke window there is functionality issue in the drop down menus - 'type' and 'start/end' for arrows etc. The drop down menu does not stay open to select an option. Very annoying and can't add arrows to lines. Also noticing the issue is in the toolbar as well for strokes.

3. Rulers units change from mm to point spontaneously

   Very odd: my units of millimeters suddenly turn to points - without me even touching the rulers. Problem is that scripts I made, go haywire now that InDesign seems to go back to its native points? This must be a bug, as the scripts worked fine up till very recently. But it's not just in the scripts. When I look e.g. at corner options, all millimeters have been replaced by points as well.

5. Indesign rimane incastrato negli angoli

   all'apertura del software, come si può notare in foto allegata, indesign rimane bloccato nell'angolo senza la possibilità di poterlo muovere in nessun modo, questo problema è presente ormai da diversi giorni e non riesco a capire come sistemare la situazione. Io uso il software per lavorare e facendo così non mi è permesso di continuare il mio lavoro. Ho provato ad disintallare e reinstallare, ma nulla.

7. bug

   "In the 'Advanced' workspace ('Geavanceerd'), the 'Swatches' panel ('Stalen') does not open; instead, the 'Links' panel ('Koppelingen') always opens. In the 'Essentials Classic' workspace ('Essentiële werkruimte – Klassiek') it works correctly. This issue occurs in the Dutch-language version of InDesign and seems to be a bug in the workspace configuration."

9. [ExtendScript] app.languagesWithVendors.itemByName fails.

   Adobe Indesign 20.5 on MacOS 15.6.1

   To reproduce:

   1. run the following script:

   (function () {
   
       var targetLanguageName = 'Dutch: 2005 Reform';
   
       // try to get the language the normal way
       var targetLanguage = app.languagesWithVendors.itemByName(targetLanguageName);
   
       if (!targetLanguage.isValid)
           alert('Language "' + targetLanguageName + '" is invalid when accessed via `itemByName`.');
       else
           return;
   
       // now loop over the languages checking the name each time
       for (var i = 0; i < app.languagesWithVendors.length; i++)
           if (app.languagesWithVendors[i].name === targetLanguageName)
               targetLanguage = app.languagesWithVendors[i];
   
       if (targetLanguage.isValid)
           alert('Language "' + targetLanguageName + '" is valid when accessed by index.');
   
   })();
   

   1. Expected result: that app.languagesWithVendors.itemByName returns a valid language for "Dutch: 2005 Reform" and the script exits quietly.

   2. It returns an invalid object. But note that we can get the valid language directly by looping over each language.

11. Window Explorer made unusable by opening InDesign

    Windows 11
    InDesign Ver. 20.5

    Here's an odd one. InDesign doesn't appear to be crashing or freezing, itself, but it is instead making my Windows explorer taskbar unusable. I can't select any icon pinned to it--they won't even highlight when I cursor over them--and only opening and closing the task manager will make them selectable again. I've tried to replicate this happening with other programs, but it's only happening when InDesign is made active.

    Can't seem to figure out what's triggering it, but it tends to happen on start-up of the program and at random intervals while using InDesign. Suddenly I can't switch out of it and have to force reset the windows explorer by "ctrl+alt+del"-ing.

    Any thoughts on what could be doing this? We've tried running multiple updates and resets (to both Adobe and Windows) to no avail.

13. Data Merge panel doesn't import UTF-8 data when selecting "UTF-8" encoding option

    I’m using Adobe InDesign v. 20.5.0.48 on the macOS v. 15.6.1. I have a “merge.csv” data file encoded in UTF-8 that imports into the Data Merge panel when I select “ASCII” as the encoding but, unsurprisingly, doesn’t display some special characters correctly. When I select “UTF-8” as the encoding option, which should remedy this problem, the file fails to import!

14. CRASH

    I downloaded the last version of adobe indesign. I also updated my Mac software. when I open indesign it opens normally, I can see the home page and even try opening a new file, choosing sizes and stuff. Once I click on create a little bar appears (its a floating bar that's always there when a file is open) but the rest of the page looks like the menu still. Im 100 sure its only indesign because illustrator works well

17. [ID-4270655] Align to Bleed issue

    The Align to Bleed function works incorrectly for certain bleed situations.
    If a facing-page document has an Inside bleed smaller than the other sides, (e.g Top: 1p6, Bottom: 1p6, Inside 0p, Outside 1p6) the Align to Bleed will left-align objects to this smaller bleed instead of the correct outer dimension. This does not seem to affect right-aligning.

20. Duplicate files opening from the Book utility

    InDesign CC2025 v20.5 / Mac Sequoia 15.6

    Opened all the documents from the Book utility then using the Book utility to navigate between them. Unlike previous versions, the CC2025 version is opening duplicates of the document instead of navigating to the one that is already open.

    I checked the same file in the older version of InDesign, CC2024. It worked correctly.

    I have been using InDesign for 17 years and have always opened or navigating to the documents from within the book utility. This is the first time in all these years that I've had this issue. I didn't realize this at first. You don't necessarily see it happening. But when I was closing the individual documents, I noticed that I had 4 times the number of documents open than I should have.

    Note: My files are on my laptop, not the network. And I am the only person working on them.

    Consulted the internet. It stated the following:
    This behavior of opening duplicates or files as read-only when working with InDesign book files, particularly in collaborative settings, has been reported as a bug in recent InDesign versions, including CC 2025.

    Here's a breakdown of the issue and potential workarounds:
    The problem
    InDesign book files are designed for collaborative work, allowing multiple users to access and edit different documents within the book. The software is supposed to show a lock icon next to a file if it's already open by another user, preventing others from opening it and making it read-only for them.

    However, in versions like InDesign CC 2025 (and potentially 19.4), this functionality is reportedly broken. The software allows multiple users to open and save changes to the same file simultaneously, leading to the creation of duplicate files.
    This issue also manifests as files opening as "unsaved" specifically when launched from the Book panel, even though they open correctly from other locations, according to the Adobe Community.
