Critical Bug Report: InDesign 2024 ME ExtendScript Fails to Set RTL Properties
We are experiencing a severe and persistent bug in Adobe InDesign 2024 Middle Eastern Edition (ME) where basic Right-to-Left (RTL) text properties cannot be set via ExtendScript, even though the same actions work manually through the UI.
This issue effectively prevents any automation or workflow scripting for Farsi/Arabic content, despite using the designated ME version.
- Environment & Problem Summary Detail Value InDesign Version 2024 (Middle Eastern/ME Edition) Issue Scripting fails to set paragraphDirection, storyDirection, and justification to RTL values. Root Cause The ExtendScript Object Model exhibits a fundamental contradiction (a "Catch-22") when trying to set RTL properties.

Save As, Export and import file locations not behaving after Mac OS Tahoe update
Previously for many older versions of Indesign, Indesign will remember your document, PDF export and import locations.
Save As would always take you to where your current document is, PDF export would take you to your last PDF export location for that particular document, and Import would take you to your last import location.
Since upgrading to Mac OS Tahoe - all of this has gone haywire. Save As will sometimes take me to the last location of the PDF export, PDF export will sometimes take me to where the document is located. And import is the same. I am…

This has been going on for years, and I'm seriously at risk of smashing the Mac over this, IT'S DRIVING ME MAD!!

Your dictionary is woefully inadequate. Does not know what "demonization" or "plethoric" means?
Pathetic.

"Reverse on Roll Off" doesn't work
The feature "Reverse on Roll Off" does not appear to work.
I have a simple button set up with an On Roll Over event to Play an Animation. The button works as intended.
However, I have the "Reverse on Roll Off" checkbox ticked, presuming it would automatically apply a "Reverse" command to the Animation when the mouse cursor Rolls Off the button.It does not.
Due to the nature of my button and animation design, setting up separate "On Roll Over" and "On Roll Off" Events on the same button is not an option, because the various combinations of the…

I've checked that I have the latest updates, reinstalled it, removed all presettings of previous versions, tried to run as admin and in compatibilty mode. Nothing changes. It runs 3 minutes and then suddenly dies. In…

I worked on a catalogue for a festival and finished my project, then exported a package as requested by the printer.
Of course, the package included fonts, images, and also an IDML file.The problem is that the export to IDML introduced some errors that ended up in the printed version. My original InDesign file looked perfectly fine, but in the IDML, some objects appeared that were not in the InDesign file at all.
This has created a serious issue for me, as it now seems like the mistake is mine. However, I never opened the IDML to double-check everything,…
