1. [INDD 2020 and 2021] Missing font in placed SVG is not detected by Preflight or Type > Find Fonts…

   [ 2020 ][ 2021 ] A missing font in a placed SVG does not show

   If you open a document with a placed SVG where a font is not embedded the missing font does not show with:
   [1] Type > Find Fonts…
   [2] Preflight

   If you export that InDesign document to IDML and open the IDML file with InDesign the missing font is showing as missing in Preflight and Type > Find Fonts… .
   As soon as you save the IDML as InDesign document, close and open it again, the missing font is not detected again. Neither with Preflight nore with Type > Find Fonts…

   FWIW: The only reliable way to make that missing font available is to install it for All Users in Windows 10.
   What does NOT work at all:
   Provide the font in a Document fonts folder
   What does NOT work reliably:
   Provide the font in the Application > Fonts folder.
   Install the font for a particular user only.

   IMPORTANT NOTE:
   Download my test documents packed as zip file from my Dropbox account:
   SVG-from-AI-Placed-16.4.0.51.zip
   https://www.dropbox.com/s/hhblynzb4qb6czs/SVG-from-AI-Placed-16.4.0.51.zip?dl=1

   ( I could not upload zip and png files here. The file types are not allowed. )

   The bug is visible with InDesign 2020 and 2021 as well.

2. FontExplorer Error

   Hi -

   Everything's been working great for months, but after updating to InDesign 16.3.2 recently, I started getting the error message attached and am not sure why. It's also functioning fine in my other Adobe apps.

   "Could not start FontExplorer X Pro because it could not be found or the license file is missing"

   FEX 7.2.6 (build 20687)
   InDesign plugin 3.5.6
   InDesign 16.3.2
   macOS 10.15.7 (19H1323)

   I'm not entirely sure if it's an InDesign or FEX issue, but have reported the issue to Monotype as well.

   Thanks!

3. libraries

   ******* Adobe, I'm still getting this CC libraries pane in InDesign being super zoomed-in... it comes and goes but I always have to restart InDesign to correct it... only to have it return to plague me constantly.

   I've spent over 2 hours with Adobe Support with no solution, and I've uninstalled/reinstalled multiple versions (including the latest) many times.

   Nothing works!

   See attached image to view the problem.

   This has been like this since late 2020! ADOBE CAN YOU PLEASE FIX YOUR SOFTWARE?!?!?!?!?

5. Share for review comments in master page

   Currently working on a 36 page magazine and noticed that some 'Share for review' comments end up on the Master Page in InDesign. When I view the comments online, I see them grouped on the right spread, but if I click the comment to see where it actually is pinned, nothing shows on the pages. Guess this is a bug?

6. page number

   Dear Adobe Team,

   InDesign 16.3.2 seems to have an issue showing previous and next page numbers.

   I draw a textbox > special characters menu > mark > previous/next page number > page number is included. Except it only shows the current page number.

   It would be nice know if I made a mistake or if this is a bug.

7. Style Mapping to [Basic Paragraph] doesn’t work with remembered settings or presets

   When you place (import) a Word document into InDesign, you can choose to use Style Mapping to map the paragraph and character styles in Word to their equivalents in your InDesign document. When you use this feature for the first time in a document, the mappings get stored somewhere and are remembered for any subsequent imports you perform in the same document; you can also choose to save your import settings, including Style Mappings, as a preset to use freely in any document.

   If you map any Word styles to the default [Basic Paragraph] style in InDesign, it works as expected the first time (when you actively select [Basic Paragraph] from the dropdown menu). But if you do another import where InDesign reads the Style Mappings from a file – either by using the cached Style Mappings that InDesign has remembered from last time, or by using a saved preset – any style that is mapped to [Basic Paragraph] will not work properly. Instead of mapping the Word style to the existing, built-in [Basic Paragraph], what happens is that a second paragraph style is created with the name [Basic Paragraph], and with properties (font, size, etc.) matching the formatting of the Word style, rather than the built-in [Basic Paragraph] style. This should not even be possible, since you end up with two styles that have the exact same name, but it happens nonetheless (see screenshot).

   In order to avoid this, you have to go into Style Mappings and re-select all instances of [Basic Paragraph] manually. Notably, when you open the Style Mappings window, the mappings all look correct, but when you click on [Basic Paragraph], the dropdown menu doesn’t open like it does normally – the text “[Basic Paragraph]” just disappears and the selection field becomes empty. You then have to click a second time for the dropdown menu to open.

   This bug has been present for several years (unsure how long). It is present in both Windows and Mac versions of InDesign.

   Steps to Reproduce:
   1. Create a Word document and type some text in any paragraph style (the default “Normal” will do)
   2. Create an InDesign document and place the Word file; make sure “Show Import Options” is selected
   3. In the Microsoft Word Import Options window, select “Customise Style Import” and click on “Style Mapping”, then map the style used in the Word document to [Basic Paragraph]; click OK twice and click somewhere in the document to import the text
   4. Place the Word file again in the same way, using the cached Style Mappings which InDesign automatically remembers without changing anything (you can even deselect “Show Import Options” and skip that part entirely)

   Actual Result:
   After the second import, your document has two paragraph styles, both named “[Basic Paragraph]”, see screenshot. One is the built-in default style; the other is an erroneously created doublet and has the little ‘arrow-into-a-box’ icon to show that it is an imported/auto-created style. The text imported the first time is styled with the built-in [Basic Paragraph] style; the text imported the second time is styled with the imported ‘parasitic’ [Basic Paragraph] style.

   Expected Result:
   After the second import, there is only one paragraph style in the document, the built-in [Basic Paragraph] style. All the text in the document, both that imported in the first import and that imported in the second import, is styled with this built-in [Basic Paragraph].

   Any Workarounds:
   Every time you place a Word file, always enter the Style Mapping window and manually reselect [Basic Paragraph] from the dropdown menu for all styles that map to this style. Alternatively, after importing the file, delete the ‘fake’ [Basic Paragraph] style and when asked what to do with the text, select the real [Basic Paragraph] style to replace it.

   When you place (import) a Word document into InDesign, you can choose to use Style Mapping to map the paragraph and character styles in Word to their equivalents in your InDesign document. When you use this feature for the first time in a document, the mappings get stored somewhere and are remembered for any subsequent imports you perform in the same document; you can also choose to save your import settings, including Style Mappings, as a preset to use freely in any document.

   If you map any Word styles to the default [Basic Paragraph] style in InDesign, it works as… more

10. After changing workspace the extension panels become huge

    After changing workspace the extensions panels contents become huge. Clicking on anything in the panel does not work. Turning the panel off and on, changing workspace several times does not help. Only restarting the application makes the panel the standard size (zoom). Today I updated the application to the latest version, but the previous version also had the problem.

    This is terribly annoying because I have to turn indesign off and on dozens of times during the day.

11. On launching indesign by opening a file, Indesign loses all its tools until 15 seconds after an action

    Recent development in INDD 16.3 (2021)

16. BUG WITH FOOTNOTES

    I though that the new version of Indesign will have this fix but, no. See my screenshot, the text is overlapping my footnote. This comes randomly in my 12 books. To get ride of this, I have to enlarge my textbox and after, reduce it like it was normally. It's very frustrating because when I get the Okay of my client and then made the final PDF, it can happening. So, I have to check all my PDFs very carefully to see if nothing wrong.

    indesign export to pdf unusable for Thai

    Basically all the diacritics are messed up, regardless of font used. The PDF looks fine but the text if copied from the PdF is garbled.
    This is in 16.2.1 (2021). It was working in 2019.

19. Scaling of objects in finest steps

    I'm using ID Version 16.2.1 x64. After the upgrade I found that an essential feature is suddenly missing: when I try to fit in pictures in existing frames for example I could formerly scale the picture in very fine steps with the help of the little "arrows" left from the field with the displayed value.
    These "arrows" are no longer there - but only in the field defining, scaling or rotating objects.
    In the other fields defining paragraphs, font size and everything else the "arrows" are still there as shown in the PDF I'll be sending to you.
    Can you help me there?

    Best regards

20. BUG - Autonumbering turns off when hiding a layer - BUG

    Steps to reproduce:

    1. Create 2 threaded text frames on a page.
    2. Fill them with text (Lorem ipsum)
    3. Autonumber the paragraphs with Autonumbering feature in InDesign - regular 1, 2, 3-list will do.
    4. Create a new layer
    5. Move the first frame in the text flow to that layer
    6. Turn off visibility of that layer....

    The autonumbering is gone from any autonumbered list!!!
