InDesign 2022 PDF Export Failure with macOS Monterey
Since updating to macOS Monterey v. 12.3.1, InDesign (V 17.2) will frequently fail to export a PDF to a data server. I will attempt to export, and it will fail, but when I export to the downloads folder, it works just fine. That issue also extends to when I create an imposed job using the plug-in HP SmartStream. The temporary file will load on the server, but once SmartStream completes, it will disappear. Exporting to the downloads folder works for that too. There's no rhyme or reason as to when it happens, and I never had this issue before updating…

Adobe InDesign published document
When viewing a document for review, if you scroll too quickly and then reverse the direction of the scroll, it can get caught into a scrolling loop that I cannot stop. It scrolls up and down incredibly quickly on it's own. I have to exit the document and then come back in. Happens in Chrome and Firefox.

Actual Size is not Actual Size
I was trying to view art at "Actual Size" under "View" and using the shortcut. The art is 9" and it is showing 11.0625" instead in InDesign 2022 (v17.2). I would really appreciate this being fixed as soon as possible. Or a solution as to why this is happening to be forthcoming. Thanks!

OCR F font is no longer displayed
InDesign 17.2
Since I upgraded to InDesign 17.2, the OCR F font is no longer displayed. The font runs perfectly on Illustrator and other programmes.
I have cleared the font cache, reinstalled InDesign and re-downloaded and reinstalled the font from Lynotype.
This font simply does not seem to exist for InDesign!4 votes -
Cross reference forces line break
- Indesign 17 and 16
- Write text in textbox. Insert cross reference close to the text box right boundary.
- I expect the cross reference to fit that line
- It is forced to line break.
- See attached files (red arrow).
- The problem does not occur when using Adobe World-Ready Paragraph Composer but when using (the normal) Adobe Paragraph Composer.

file name
I'm in InDesign 17.1. File names under Recent Files are overlapping and become illegible. Restarting the device and application doesn't solve this issue.

Indesign is unusable
Since the last update Indesign is barely usable. It crashes 10 times a day and with no explanation. Changing fonts, placing objects, updating graphics, all seem to cause it to crash. Suitcase is also causing problems with Adobe fonts which I can't seem to resolve. This is by far the worst update to Indesign that has come out. Forget adding new features, fix the problems with the program first so it is at least usuable.

Please fixz Indesign so that the font (Source sans pro) has all options. It changes itself to Source sans Pro (OTF) and then has only light
Fonts missing in Indesign but they work OK in Illustrator and in Affinity Designer. If I drop down the menu every time to more fonts they seem to appear for that instance.

Auto-fit label confusing
The "Auto-fit" option to keep an image's fitting method and cropping position active (as far as possible) while scaling the frame, can be confusing.
Since the implementation of it, many users are not aware of what it does, because they assume it DOES something (make it fit automatically, right now) in stead of that it will RETAIN its current crop and fit. Especially in Dutch, where it is translated as "Make it fit", which is even more misleading.
So when explaining what it actually does to many users (as a trainer, presenter) they always sigh...
Please use a more clarifying…

Control Panel missing fields for Type
Updated to InDesign 17.2 and noticed that some of the fields to the right in the Control Panel are missing for type. Using 27-inch monitor in full screen mode. If take out of full screen mode and move my window way over to the left off screen, and pull the Control panel out, then I see the fields. They used to fit.

inDesign creates an invalid href for an Archive.org link
When InDesign creates the href for a link from Archive.org it does not href to archive.org, but to the dead link.
example:
https://web.archive.org/web/20220320173121/https://freewheelingeasy.com/
creates the href for "https://freewheelingeasy.com/"
rather than the correct href of "https://web.archive.org/web/20220320173121/https://freewheelingeasy.com/"1 vote
