PDF comments made in Acrobat are not matched in my InDesign
Hi !
Since a couple of weeks comments PDF made by my client are not matched in my indd files.
I have the latest version of inDesign and my client's Acrobat is up to date to.
We are use to work on long files about 400 pages… pages can have different sizes. We didn't change anything in our workflow… I don't understand why it doesn't work anymore. About only 10% of comments matches… the other ones are (?)…
Thank you for helping and fixing this bug.

Spellcheck
Spellcheck in InDesign 2020 build 15.0.2 doesn't work. It acts like it is working, but it never finds any misspellings. I noticed it yesterday when I sent an article to the proof reader and it came back with errors InDesign should have detected. I purposely put in misspellings, but InDesign found no spelling mistakes.

display artifact
Viewing this document, which is still in draft form, the bleed area contains a dark gray horizontal line across the top and a larger dark gray rectangle near the top of the right-hand side. There are no unseen objects in the design that could be causing this.

Adobe 2020 build 15.0.2 - loses installed fonts
When working with InDesign 2020, fonts that are installed on the system, go missing especially if I either export some pages as a PDF, or package the file. If I quit InDesign and restart, InDesign finds the fonts and I can work with the document until I do another PDF export or package the file.
I never had this problem with InDesign 2019 and earlier. It just started with InDesign 2020 and build 15.0.2.3 votes -

InDesign Script - find/replace - store in a variable what is in "find what", "find format"
Tested in InDesign, any from CC to CC2020.
I was needed a script which can store whatever is there in one or more variables the following:
- the format from "find format",
- the format from "change format".
The code below doesn't works if the paragraph (character) style is in a group style.var currFindPrefs = app.findGrepPreferences.properties;
var currChangePrefs = app.changeGrepPreferences.properties;
//do something
//reset preferences
app.findGrepPreferences.properties = currFindPrefs;
app.changeGrepPreferences.properties = currChangePrefs;
The variables can't store the style that are in group styles.
Only those that are outside of any group.Please see attached Image.

story editor cursor block cursor disappears
InDesign 15.0.2 on OS X 10.14.6 on a MacBook Pro with an external display.
Go into Preferences and set the story editor cursor to "block," the fattest size.
Put the cursor toward the righthand side of a longer line, and use the arrow keys to navigate the cursor up and down.
The cursor should stay visible at the end of the line, as the default cursor does.
Instead, when the cursor is at the end of the line, it disappears, making editing and navigation by arrow keys difficult.

In the Table of Contents panel, make the 'Include Book Documents' option persistent and part of the style
I am writing a book, with 18 chapters, each as a separate InDesign document, but all collected in a single Book.indb.
I just now returned to writing the book after a several months break. Wanting to update my structure, I did Layout > Table of Contents and clicked 'OK'. My Table of Contents disappeared!
After investigating, I realized that the 'Include Book Documents' option in that panel had become unchecked.
I checked that option, ran Table of Contents again, and found all my table of contents entries generated successfully. Yay!
HOWEVER, when I went to regenerate the Table of Contents,…

Version 15.0.2 - Duplicate folder saving to desktop
After moving a packaged folder from the desktop, if I go back to edit the file it creates a duplicate folder to the desktop with only the contents of Document fonts (which does not include all fonts). Definitely a concern of saving over existing data.

Version 15.0.2 - Images are pixelated after exporting file to PDF.
The work around I've found is to go to Compression and turn off Bicubic downsampling. And select Do not downsample.

copy/paste of URL loses character style
ID 15.0.2; Mac OS 10.14.6
copy a passage containing a URL formatted with a character style
paste the passage
expect char. style to be retained
actual: char.. style is eliminated; reverts to [None]
This happens when char. style is named 'Hyperlink' or when a char. style with another name is used.
Related issue: 'New Hyperlink from URL' always creates and applies default char. style Hyperlink unless I name my char. style for URLs 'Hyperlink'; 'hyperlink', for example, will not be applied.

Please can you share a sample file and a video showing the problem?Thanks

In Design 15.0.2 freezes up and is extremely slow
It takes quite a while to do simple things like create a text box, move the boxes around, cutting and pasting, moving from the selection tool to the type tool, etc. It will even freeze up moving from page to page. It takes forever to get any work done. Please help!

[ID-4218828]InDesign, InCopy: linked copy and image files randomly broken
We are a group of 16 graphic designers working on Macs. Our OS are varied between Sierra, High Sierra and Mojave. We work in InDesign 14.03 and 15.02 (with linked InCopy assets), Bridge 9.1 and 10.03, Photoshop 20.0.8 and 21.1, and Illustrator 23.1.1 and 24.1. We work on Box Drive and store our layout files and absolute-linked image assets there. It is critical that we are able to work on each others’ files in a high-volume, high-production environment. We don’t believe this is an issue related to our connection speeds.
Looking for a resolution to these issues:

text shadow
I have a text box with Drop Shadow Effect on the text itself. When I edit the text, the shadow does not change. I discovered quite accidentally that Undo (CTRL+Z) then Redo (CTRL+SHIFT+Z) fixes the issue.
However, when I change the angle of the object (text box), the text moves but the shadow remains in place. I cannot fix it even by adjusting the Effect angle options.
I have another issue where I have two separate text boxes on the same page with the exact same font and supposed font size, but the text is quite obviously not actually the…

cc2017/18 cannot install on macOS Catalina
Please enable a version of InDesign CC2017 that can be installed on macOS Catalina. It causes problems for large book files when they have to be converted to newer versions of InDesign. It often takes a long time from start to finish for a book project. When a file is created in one version of InDesign, it should be kept in that same version until it is completed, to avoid unintended errors and discrepancies creeping in. I have many files that originated in CC2017, which I now cannot open on a new machine operating with macOS Catalina.
