Abstürze nach Wechsel von CS6 zu CC
Ich arbeite an einem Buch mit vielen Abschnitten, einzelne davon wurden in CS6 bearbeitet und dann brauchte ich CC für die weitere Arbeit. Da in den Voreinstellungen für CC das Wörterbuch "Duden" und "Duden tolerant" empfohlen wird, stellte ich dies entsprechend ein. Unter CS6 war nur "Hunspell" oder "Proximity" möglich. Ich wollte aber weiter dasselbe "Benutzerwörterbuch" verwenden, da ich viele Fachwörter und Eigennamen etc. verwende, die nicht im Duden sind. Nach diesem Wechsel stürzte InDesign CC beim Öffnen von CS6 Dokumenten ab. Ich versuchte es mit System- und NVRAM-Resets. Ohne Erfolg. Es funktionierte nur, indem ich vor jedem Öffnen von…

Applying a negative vertical scale actually increases item's height (and display wrong value)
Just noticed that while you try to apply a negative vertical scale, item is actually enlarged in height. Also the vertical scale shows wrong value (says -100 instead of -125%)
In my case, tried to apply -125% vertical scale1 vote -
crashes while exporting with long file names
My InDesign Seems to crash every time I try to export a file to pdf with a filename that is longer than 40 characters. We have to have the file names this long due to our naming conventions.

File Information won't close
When I open the File Information window to edit the metadata of a file, I can't close the window because the OK and close buttons are off the bottom of the screen.
When I try to resize the window, it will return to the size it is. In order to close it I have to restart InDesign!
Please sort this!

I have Adobe InDesign 14.0.2 x64, and my book chapters keep showing a spinning wheel when i try to make any change
I have Adobe InDesign 14.0.2 x64, and my book chapters keep showing a spinning wheel when i try to make any change. Say I need to add one letter, after doing so the ball has to spin 10 times until i can do anything else. This is extremely time consuming and is wasting my time when I have to wait 2 minutes after any tiny change before I can make another. I have seen others posting issues about this over a year ago. All fixes people have suggested do nothing for me. Please help.

Font Issue In Adobe InDesign version 14.0.1
Currently encountering an error within InDesign where certain fonts are displaying a explination mark and not working correctly. However, they appear as installed when using InDesign (please see attached)
The current workaround is to re-link the fonts to InDesign. Is there a known fix for this issue? Windows 10, InDesign version 14.0.1
Thank you

workspace's features (such as scroll down button and scroll sides, as well as page jump using pages tab) now showing
I'm using InCopy on Mac, and the bottom features are hidden.
I'm also using InCopy on my PC and it works fine. All the bottom are shown correctly.
Before 2019, it only happened when I opened Assignments panel, which hid last couple assignments from the pane and I couldn't scroll down any further to reveal it.
But now, it's happening on the bottom pane universally(?).

Text Alignment Issues on PDF
Mac OS (Mojave version 10.14.6) 2.6 GHz Intel Core i7, Radeon Pro Vega 16 4 GB Intell UHD Graphics 630 1536 MB
InDesing CC totally up to date, uninstalled and cleaned multiple times.
When I export a PDF, both with my own settings and the default High Quality Print the text will randomly not be aligned, for example I exported the attached page 5 times with the exact same setting and sometimes it was fine but a few it was messed up. No noticeable pattern, happens when exporting Print PDF and Interactive.

Fonts displayed as missing with (OTF) appended even though they're installed
InDesign seems to struggle to recognise installed fonts - possibly something to do with how Skyfonts works?
A file created with Skyfonts fonts shows the font family in square braces with (OTF) appended and substitutes default font, rather than making use of the identically named font file, sitting in c:\windows\fonts\ on PC / Font Book on Mac.
Same result if the font files are dumped in a Document fonts subfolder next to the InDesign file.
Troublingly, using a different font cloud sync app (or in the rare instance where the font is available on fonts.adobe.com) doesn't remove the issue -…

Windows #@$!*&%^((@@)):[[
Hello to the Adobe InDesign Geniuses! I write this with a heavy heart, I have been a mac holdout/Windows Defender when it comes to Adobe products (Photoshop) since the Mid 1990's If I had to guess, 1995 or 1996. I LOVE Adobe Products and have a huge distaste for Mac. I am reaching a breaking point with Windows, they are trying to make an OS SOOO much more and constantly causing problems, I just had to re install windows on 5 computers due to the latest update that I have yet to have one Windows tech support expert agree as…

Export Interative PDF - Create Tagged PDF checkbox Bug
All my paragraph styles are set to corresponding tags (eg., H1, H2, etc.) for export options. When I export to tagged pdf, the tag names generated in PDF were paragraph style names not "Export Tagging" names.
Please look it into this and do the needful.

Inside, Outside, Upside Down
InDesign 14.0.2 (and earlier)
In File > New, the Bottom Margin is in the upper right and the Inside Margin is in the lower left.
In File > Document Setup, these two controls are reversed. The Bottom Margin is in the lower left and the Inside Margin is now in the upper right.
File > Edit Document Presets matches File Document Setup.
Please make the positions of these four controls consistent every place they appear.

CS6 won't start because it can not load png import filter.indesign plugin
The start-up screen says: png import filter.indesign plugin requires the debug version indesign.
I have the plug-in installed. So I expected the program to open as always.

Renaming an object layer by double-clicking is tedious - sometimes non-responsive
When working with layers, select an object, then double click the name to rename, it takes multiple clicks and a delay of several seconds before the name field becomes editable. Why? I don't see any other way to rename the object layer.
