footnote reference formatting is wrong
The new version 19 and 19.0.1 shows footnote reference numbers incorrectly When paragraph justification is set to Adobe World-Ready Paragraph Composer. It must be set to the basic Adobe Paragraph Composer to work.
The problem is the final digit (if the reference is greater than 9) does not apply the character style formatting defined in the Footnote Options setup, so the last digit is shown as normal.
The same issue happens on running head page numbers with a style applied, but only on the right hand page. It also happens on cross-reference numbers. A workaround is to place a character…

Stile di carattere
Non è una nuova idea. è un bug dall'ultimo aggiornamento. Se faccio una stringa di testo e seleziono stile di carattere ad esempio corsivo, tondo chiaro ecc. selezionando la singola parola e applico lo stile influisce sull'intera strinca a differenza della precedente versione che teneva lao stile solo sul testo selezionato pur nella stressa riga.

The link is set to "anyone with link can comment" but it's still requiring a password
I have created a share for review link for others to comment on, however it's requiring them to log into an account even though it's set to "Anyone with the link can comment". This was not the case before, others could comment as a guest. Using InDesign 2024 v19.0.1
12 votesThe issue has been fixed.
Now the Share for Review links set to "Anyone with the link can comment" open in the browser without asking for an Adobe ID login & password.

Cross-references Feature is Not Fit For Purpose
Cross-references are by their very nature linked with long documents. Adobe claims InDesign has "…powerful features for creating longer documents" but, as long as the cross-references feature remains so painfully slow, that statement does not stand up to scrutiny.
Just opening a cross-reference in a long document (2,000 pages) is taking four hours on a Mac Studio with 64 GB memory. How long it takes to actually edit it is, as yet, unknown – I gave up after 90 minutes watching the spinning beachball of death to work on another project.
As it stands, the cross-references feature is bordering on…

fonts not exporting to pdf properly
I am using Indesign 2024 on Mac Ventura. Adobe Premier Pro Garamond Cyrillic fonts are fine in InDesign but do not show properly when exported to PDFs. This is ridiculous if not inexcusable. It's an Open Source, Adobe font. Spend time fixing issues like this instead of destroying programs by deleting scroll bars.

Adobe InDesign 2024 (v19.0) - Unable to create own style pack (error popup)
When I try to create a new style pack I get the dialog to apply different styles. When choosing the according styles for Heading, Subheading,... I only get an error pop up. When confirming, I get another alert, a couple of times in a row (for every following style to apply one). After confirming all alerts I get one or more text frames filled with example text (no specific format / settings) on the first page of the document.

Custom fonts in bold/black appears thin and bold in latest versions of InDesign and Photoshop
Custom fonts in bold appears alternately as bold and thin in the latest version of InDesign (19.0.1) and Photoshop (25.1) I've tried deleting all apps and installing again, but it doesn't help. The problem only occurs in Adobe programs. Not in Word etc. It works fine, when I'm installing an older version of InDesign, fx 18.5.
The font that is used is the Google font "Outline".

Images are being flipped on InDesign 2023 > 2024 update
As title describes, I have a file that is suitable for InDesign 2023 (18.5.0.57), when I open it in InDesign 2024 (19.0.0.151) some rare cases (twice in 1 day) there have been images that have been flipped upside down.
Fortunately both times the client's have picked this up, I work for a print industry and send back PDFs for print approval. This is the final stage before print.

Online Publishing not taking all images
Using both InDesign 19 and 18.5, publishing online no longer functions on a Mac running Sonoma 14.1. This issue started days ago. I’ve Packaged projects, saved them locally, and confirmed all images are linked but when I publish them, some images do not tranfer. And it’s random. If I publish over and over again, an image that didnt appear before may make it through. This is a terrible bug for me personally as I rely on digital publishing and sharing interactive presentations for my business.

Publish Online Broken Objects
Publish Online Suddenly not displaying images correctly since 6th November 2023
Hi there,
Yesterday I tried to update an InDesign document which I'd published online.
I had to add some stuff to the document which I then published online with the changes (new publish, not over written) and it seemed to break some of the embedded images. I thought it must be the changes however I did test the back up I had which was an identical document and when publishing it online again some of the images or all of them are broken. Without making any changes in InDesign,…3 votes -

Indesign v19 (2024) changes line breaks of paragraphs in documents created in v18.5 (2023)
I wanted to export a finished document (a book) made with Indesign Version 18.5 (2023) after updating to Version 19 (2024). After exporting I noticed that the word-wrapping was ruined and images on wrong pages because at some points in the document the line breaks were different and it made the paragraph a line longer than before and thus ruining the following textwrap.
If I open the document with the old indesign version, everything is fine. I compared the preferences and everything is identical. In both cases the paragraphs use the single-line-composer and the justification is not changed either.
Is…
