1. Image quality of exported JPG/PNG very low for InDesign 17.2.1

   Since the latest update, exporting image files is virtually impossible and creates very low images. See attached for comparison between Photoshop and InDesign exported files. This issue may be caused by a problem with the Nvidia Studio Driver and the lates update for InDesign. The same problem occurs when exporting a highres PDF and then Exporting from Acrobat to an image file.

2. Text appears heavier over a transparent image

   When text is in a layer above an image that has its basic blending mode set to "multiply" the text is rendered with a darker outline. This does not appear in the final PDF, only the preview, but it makes it extremely difficult to judge font sizes and whether text is bold.

   To reproduce:

   1. Create text in a text box.
   2. Insert a JPEG image on the page.
   3. Use the Arrange option on the image to "send to back" so that it is in a layer below the text
   4. Use Effects > Transparency on the image and set its blending mode to Multiply

   The expected result is that the text should appear normally.

   The actual result is that the text appears slightly darker/larger/bolded. This effect may be easier to see if you zoom out in the preview.

3. text typed on path distorts when converted to outlines

   Using InDesign v17.2.1, text typed on a path becomes distorted when converted to outlines. As you'll see in the attached before/after images, the converted text is mostly okay, but the last few words become almost illegibly small. The characters also become reoriented relative to the path ... some characters are vertical, others upside-down. I've tried changing fonts, creating new documents, and typing on paths of different shapes, but the problem persists. I was hoping that this problem would be addressed in the latest update, but it wasn't.

4. April 2022 update opens in unusable display mode. CRITICAL

   InDesign 2022 (April) opens in "restore" screensize, but it's entirely off screen (top left). There is no way to adjust the "restore" screen size and position.
   This "restore" problem has been present for many years, but now InDesign not only forgets the restore position and size, it uses uninitialized values and is impossible to use.
   The "maximize" size icon is just visible on my UHD display (top left) so I can make InDesign go full screen -- but on a 50" UHD display I need an ADJUSTABLE app size. So now this latest result makes the whole program very inconvenient to use. The original thread on this says it was fixed years ago. But it is not fixed, and is now WORSE, because I cannot access the "restore" screen size adjustments.

5. Rulers

   In the latest version it is much harder to place a guide on the exact spot because the guide in the ruler itself has become much thicker/dotted when before it was just a thin line and was more accurately placed on the needed measurement.

6. Mark positioning (GPOS) went wrong for text on path

   Khmer rendering has been working well on most of the Adobe products. InDesign is one of them, especially after the fix: https://indesign.uservoice.com/forums/601180-adobe-indesign-bugs/suggestions/36534535-khmer-script-justification-is-broken.

   However, I've just noticed that there is another bug with GPOS for Khmer (or maybe other scripts), when the text is on a path.

   InDesign Version: 17.1
   Composer: World-ready
   Text: គុណតម្លៃរបស់យើង ស្ត្រី កន្លោង
   Font: https://fonts.google.com/noto/specimen/Noto+Sans+Khmer

7. PDF Preview Issue/Transparent Objects Missing

   PDFs set up for print are missing transparent objects in the image preview. Opened file looks normal and prints fine. It just throws my client off in a big way and that's NOT fine.

8. Fonts with a certain suffix in the family name not showing up in the font menu

   InDesign 17.2.1 macOS 12.3.1
   When installing four different regional packages each of them following this family name structure: name + region, being the family names:
   MyFont APAC
   MyFont CYR
   MyFont EMEA
   MyFont NALA
   Fonts with CYR in the family name don't show up in the font menu, while the rest of the fonts do.
   The fonts are somewhere though as InDesign does not complain about the fonts not being installed when opening a document set in that font.

10. Multiple line hyperlinks tab out of order when exported to PDF.

    Hi there. For whatever reason, when I have hyperlinks that wrap to a new line in InDesign, Acrobat tabs through them in the reverse order when exported as a PDF. Here is an example:

    [Let's say this sentence is a hyperlink that
    has wrapped to a new line.]

    When exported to a PDF, the tab order starts at [has wrapped to a new line.] then tabs to [Let's say this sentence is a hyperlink that]. And it continues that method throughout the piece. This is with tabbing set to document structure. If I set the tabbing method to "row", it tabs correctly, but that's not ideal in mutli-column layouts. The copy containing the hyperlinks are in single containers.

    I can fix it by diving into the tags in Acrobat and adjusting the order, but that isn't ideal as my InDesign docs usually have numerous hyperlinks, go through multiple proofs, and sometimes have multiple designers touching the piece. Is there a way to correct this in InDesign?

    This person had the same problem as me back in version 13.1, but I didn't see any kind of resolution:
    https://indesign.uservoice.com/forums/601180-adobe-indesign-bugs/suggestions/39062443-multiple-text-line-links-tab-out-of-order

    Seeing as it's been awhile, I'm hoping this has been resolved, or there is a work-around.

    My Adobe InDesign version: 17.2.1

    Thanks in advance!

11. The wrong InDesign version is started.

    1. InDesign 16.4.2; 17.2.1 for PC
    2. try to open indd file or idml file
    3. InDesign 17.2.1 should start
    4. InDesign 16.4.2 is starting
    5. …

    I have two versions of InDesign installed on my Windows computer, versions 16 and 17. After automatically patching the older version to 16.4.2 today, all .indd and .idml files open with the older version instead of the new one. My attempts to manually change this setting keep getting overwritten, I suspect by the creative-cloud software. Is there any way to change the setting?

13. 72 DPI images not placing at 100%, scaling to 216 DPI

    This has apparently been a discussion since at least 2019 and has not yet found a solution:

    https://community.adobe.com/t5/indesign-discussions/jpg-not-placing-at-proper-dimensions/m-p/12933878/page/3#M476611

    When placing certain jpg images saved to 72 DPI, In Design frequently places them at 1/3 actual size, or down to 216 DPI. This is including if the ID document's increments/document size are set to pixels. It seems most common with jpgs saved in a standard "Save As" format from Photoshop vs. the legacy "Save for Web."

    1. Versions 14.02 to 17.1 - Edit - issue continues after update to 17.2.1.
    2. Steps to reproduce: place a jpg image saved to 72 dpi resolution
    3. Expected result - image is placed at 100% scale like other images
    4. Actual result - image is placed at 33.33% scale
    5. See images attached. These are identically sized - the one that was saved using the outdated legacy Save for Web option on Photoshop came in at 100% scale or 72 DPI. The image saved in a more standard Save As format from Photoshop comes in at 33.33% scale or 216 DPI. Export option from Photoshop yields the same result. Have also noticed this scaling issue with images provided to me from non-Photoshop sources.

    Occasionally it loads it in at 50% scale instead of 33.33%, too.

    This has apparently been a discussion since at least 2019 and has not yet found a solution:

14. InDesign export file location resets every time

    InDesign export seems to have been a bit broken in the latest release.

    When exporting a PDF, InDesign forgets the previous file location and working file location, prompting me to export to the desktop every time.

    I'm seeing this behaviour on both of my Macbook Pros. Both are 2019 16" laptops running MacOS Monterey.

    Is anyone else seeing this behaviour?

15. Font disappears when size of text is changed

    When working in a text box and changing the size of the font, the text disappears altogether. If I change the font to a different one, the text reappears, then change font back to the one I used originally and text disappears again. (For example: changed font from default myriad pro to Ultra--text still showing; changed font size--text disappears; change font to Roboto (or anything else)--text reappears.)
    No matter position of text box, size of box, size of font, changing to overprint view, nothing makes the text reappear except changing the font to something else. Font/text is also missing when the file is exported in any format (jpeg, pdf, etc.)
    Has happened multiple times with different fonts (so far Montserrat and Ultra are the most consistent with this issue) over the last few years (read: many versions of indesign and this is still an issue).
    Currently using the most updated version of indesign (17.2.1).

17. InDesign hyphenates certain words incorrectly

    InDesign hyphenates certain words incorrectly. Examples include "worldview" and "Princeton," which InDesign hyphenates as "worl-dview" and "Princ-eton." I'm in InDesign 17.2.1, but this has been the case for all versions. It would be understandable if these were foreign or unusual words, but common words like this should never break this way.

18. dashed lines

    Hi I'm just wondering what could be causing dashed lines to print with 'ticks'? The file exports to PDF showing as normal (first image) but prints dashed lines as shown in the second image.

    The same thing happens (randomly) with images created in Illustrator as well as boxes created in Indesign.
    thanks

19. Layout options for multiple records from data merge

    I have recently discovered Data Merge and it works great for most things. However I need to output multiple records per page set out head-to-head. This is so the output can be printed and folder in half with the text on both side the right way up. More detailed controls would be big help.
    Unless I have missed something.
