'New hyperlink from URL' no longer creating 'Hyperlink' Character Style
InDesign 16.0 2021
When using the 'New Hyperlink from URL' command, the default 'Hyperlink' Character Style is no longer being created, or applied if already present. The interactive hyperlink functionality still works, but no styling is being applied to the selected text as previously (in fact, if any Character Style is already present, it is being removed).
Previously, this command would convert the selected text to a hyperlink, and would also apply a 'Hyperlink' character style at the same time.
Please restore the previous function, or enable a user toggle to revert to the previous behavior is this is an…

Danish translation in 'EPUB Export Options' is wrong
In the EPUB Export Options window - Metadata - two fields are translated into Danish. But this is not done correctly.
Re: field 3 "Created by" and 7 "Rights".This Text: > should be translated into this
Oprettet af: > Forfatter: Højre: > Copyright:
(because 'Forfatter' means 'Author' and this metadata information is requied in EPUBs.. and 'Højre' means the opposite of left ... so this is NOT the case here ;)

Printing a document with variable fonts garbles them
(I sent test fonts to Josh Hadley at Adobe yesterday, i.e. Aktiv Grotesk VF)
- Select variable font from the menu (e.g. Aktiv Grotesk VF)
- Select world-ready composer
- Select a couple different instances from the drop-down or select an instance via the slider (e.g. Black, Bold, Regular, Light) and set some text in each
- Print the page from InDesign on a PostScript printer
See the attached image. What should happen is that the repeating blocks of text should be set in the different instances you selected in step 3. They are replaced by a random font instead, only the first instance…

Cross references rendered to big/wrong line break
Text with cross references isn't rendered correctly. The line break is triggered far to early (see IDML and PNG) image. This affects probably all InDesign Version but was reproduced with CC 2020 and CC 2021
The line break works with the Adobe World-Ready Composers but not with the Classic Composers.
I cannot use the World-Ready Composers because of the justified nonbreaking space see https://indesign.uservoice.com/forums/601180-adobe-indesign-bugs/suggestions/41793187-bug-since-cs6-nonbreaking-space-s-issue-wit
Please fix both bugs!

Clipped items lose their clip when printed
InDesign files with clipped images saved as a PDF look fine in Acrobat. Clip is lost when sending file to the rip. This causes items to overlap

Type shortcut key (t) flips back to previous tool after a second
In InDesign 2021 (16.0) when I press t to get my text tool, the cursor changes to the text tool for about 1 second, then flips back to the previous tool it was on.
This seems to be only with the text tool (t); I can change to other tools without a problem1 vote -

IDS on Windows: Extreme slowness in ExtendScript execution via SOAP connection (with weird workaround)
SETUP
IDS Server 14.0.3.433 running on Windows Server 2019 (build 17763.864)
Local connection using "sampleclient.exe"
Two test scripts (attached):
Slow script: "adobe-ids-win-slow.js" (approx 275 KB in size)
Fast script: "adobe-ids-win-fast.js" (approx 275 KB in size)
PROBLEM
There are two scripts to compare. They are both of identical size, does nothing but declare a variable and return a string value. However, while execution of one of the scripts take a fraction of a second, the other script typically runs for > 10 seconds before completing.
TESTS AND OBSERVATIONS
1) This takes excessive time to run (typically 13 seconds on my test…

Line not staying put
Hi all,
I updated InDesign this morning to the latest version. However, I can't get lines to stay put. I click on the line tool, drag the cursor across to where I want it. Then click on the selection tool and click somewhere else in the document and the line disappears. I can't get the line to stay in the document not can I add a second line - any ideas on what the issue is?

Option-Click/Drag to duplicate spread does not work anymore with MacOS 11.0.1 update
- InDesign 15.1.3
- To Duplicate Spreads in Pages Panel — Option-Click/Drag to duplicate spread does not work anymore with MacOS 11.0.1 update. It used to with previous MacOS.
- Expected Result: the grab hand would have a plus sign, then duplicate spread.
- Actual Result: The grab hand operates as "Move" not "Duplicate".
Right/Click Duplicate does, however (but who has that much time? : )
Thank you
InDesign 15.1.3
