Cannot use restrain option or opt/command/shift to make duplicates?
Something I have been frustrated with since CS 2019 was introduced is starting to really annoy me now. I have not been able to find how to fix the problems but basically ....
If I draw a rule using the Line tool using 'shift' to restrain the rule to horizontal or vertical does not work, it just floats about at any angle you can think of - I just want to draw a perfect horizontal rule without having to go and edit the position markers!
Then there's the restrain option to enlarge or reduce shapes/images etc - it no longer…1 vote -
Keyboard shortcut for Break Link to Style is not working correctly
InDesign 14.0.3
When I use a shortcut for Break Link to Style in the Paragraph Styles Panel, it completely destroys the formatting.
However, when I select the same command with my mouse - it works as expected - breaks the link with the style, while retaining formatting.

Cursor - Zoom in and out/left and right on trackpad not working
When using my trackpad on Windows 10, two fingers up and down works when editing a document. Two fingers left and right does nothing and pinching in and out doesnt zoom, it scrolls right to left. This is the same across all my adobe platforms. Everything else on my laptop scrolls accordingly on the trackpad.
I only downloaded the adobe software last night and my laptop is brand new yesterday. All updates are up to date.Thank you for helping in advance.

Loss of typographic enrichment (italic, bold, etc.) on import
On CC2019 14.0.3 but also on previous versions.
When I import a Miscrosoft Word text I sometimes lose part of the enrichment. On the attached example the majority of Bold are kept but some are gone. This is very problematic when working on documents of several hundred pages.3 votes -

Can't Place images after upgrading to Mac Catalina
Just upgraded my MacBook Pro to Catalina and suddenly I'm unable to place images. When I select Place from the File menu, click on the file I want, the Open command is grayed out. The only way I can get images onto the page is by dragging them from Bridge. I'm running ID 14.0.3, the latest version.

InDesign does not load printer settings initially
When opening the print window, InDesign will not use the settings set in the printer driver. But if you switch to a different printer in the drop down list and then back to the first printer again, the correct settings will be loaded.
Using latest version 14.0.3.
Printing works fine in other Adobe-softwares and MS Office.1 vote -

Indesign CC 2019 (14.0.3)
The borders don't merge on different paragraphs of the same style , although "merge borders" is checked in the paragraph style. The borders leave a line in the center of the text.

updating a placed multipage pdf
Hello,
When a multipage pdf is placed in InDesign, and an update of the pdf is needed, it is possible to do 'update link' in the links panel. But when 'show import options' is ON (in the 'place' window), all of the placed pages of the pdf will be replaced by page 1 of the updated pdf.
For my opinion, if you want to update the instances of a placed pdf, the responsive pages have to be updated. At least the option must be accessible when updating the link.2 votes -

Wrong font case in TOC when using character style with upper case
When generating table of contents it fetches the text and ignores paragraph styles, but character styles are left. This must be a misstake.
I want TOC to be title case and chapter headings to be upper case that is set in a paragraph style. So far so good. But I am adjusting minor words (and, at, etc) with a character style. And for those words the upper case setting also shows in TOC.

Exporting to PDF with print marks increases page size
Using CC InDesign 2019 14.0.3 on a Mojave 10.14.6 MacBookPro
For some unknown reason, for the last 3 months or so every time I export a pdf with any print marks, the page size is increased by 4.4mm on every side of the page ... eg I set up a document as A4 (297x210mm) with a 3mm bleed, set my content and then export it with print marks I get a 4.4mm increase on each side of every page - ie the resulting document size is 311.8 x 224.8mm instead of 303 x 216mm
This causes major issues with submitting…

Use of tab key is inserting unwanted numerals into line of copy instead of tab
When working in InDesign v 14.0.3 x64 on my PC, I've encountered a new problem when trying to align text in a bulleted list using the "tab" key.
After keying in the text in my list, I create alignment by first inserting tabs using the Type > Tabs command, and then using the "Tab" key on my keyboard to align second and third lines of text. Lately, when I move my cursor down to the second line of text and attempt to use the tab key to align the text with the tab I set in the line above, InDesign…

font cache
Fonts in Document fonts folder are not removeable anymore.
I’m a typedesigner and check fonts by generating them into a Document fonts folder. In the past the fonts were always at once updated in Indesign, when I overwrote the fontfile. This does not work anymore.
What is worse. A font that I generated into the folder is still visible in the font menue of the document, and I can still select and use it, even if the file does not exist anymore on the computer. It only disappears if I cut the internet. So it seems the font is stored…1 vote
