Hyperlinks
I use a lot of hyperlinks in a document which link to the individual products on our website for online ordering and stock levels.
The Hyperlink panel frequently corrupts - I lose the ‘traffic light’ link status indicator and location of the link (page No.) - meaning I have to remove InDesign and execute a clean install to get the feature back.

multiple files not placing correctly when placing multi-page pdf into frames
I found this error posted as a bug; since that post was from 2022 with a version of inDesign well past I'm making a new post.
Adobe InDesign version 21.4.1
I need to impose several 2 sided cards for printing.
File>Place... Select multiple pdfs - Open
Place PDF - Choose All under Pages - Repeat for all placed items (doing 4 in my example)OK so in recording for this post I figured out that if I place on to blank pages, this didn't happen -- all pages of all 4 pdfs placed for 8 total. If I do my…

INDESIGN 21.4 CRASH
-When I change the image, the spinning wheel appears instead of the arrow cursor.
-During use, the program stops working, freezes completely, and I can't even close the window; I can only close the program via Task Manager.
-Sometimes it doesn't write text; I can select and delete, but it doesn't write.I have also worked with larger files in the past with previous versions of InDesign without any problems.
It's impossibile to work!

Taking much time to load, i have to wait until loading completes.
I have been using InDesign since 3 years and have handled a lot more heavy files. From 2 days, i have been facing a problem that after placing the subject in frame box, the InDesign starts loading and till the time checking not completed i am unable to do anything else. This is more frustrating because the file is not too heavy.

Justification Alternates (jalt) ignored by the HarfBuzz World-Ready shaping workflow
In the recent InDesign versions Adobe has introduced HarfBuzz as the default text shaping engine but the Justification alternates feature is now not working in OpenType fonts at all, we have confirmed it by testing with several Arabic fonts. For Adobe legacy text rendering engine this feature still works seamlessly but not for Harfbuzz
It has disturbed all the Arabic users past documents.I have attached a test Arabic document with Adobe Naskh font, as this font has justification alternates feature.
Apply the World-Ready Paragraph Composer.
Justify the Arabic paragraph.
In Arabic Enabled InDesign set the Insert Kashidas to: None…2 votes -
Screen does not refresh in all cases
Every now and then, InDesign shows things in a previous state, which is very confusing.
E..g. when adding a page break, the break is added, but the text remains, until the document is scrolled. The screen does not seem to refresh after this action.I am on a Mac Studio M3 Ultra, InDesign 21.4

Cursore cambia in clessidra
Versone 21.4 x 64
Il cursore si trasforma in clessidra e resta così per tutto il tempo rendendo impossibile comprendere ad esempio i punti di input del testo.
Ho provato ad installare nuovamente il software ma il problema è sempre lì.
Credo anche che sia correlato alla presenza di immagini nel documento poichè mi pare che a volte inizi da quando si inseriscono immagini.Per favore aiuto perché non si riesce a lavorare così.
Grazie

Rolling cursor in InDesign
I completely get how incredibly irritating that is, especially when you have a strict deadline to hit and the software is just stuck spinning. The constant rolling cursor in InDesign is usually caused by the program getting trapped in a loop, trying to calculate or locate something in the background over and over again.
Here are the fastest ways to force InDesign to stop lagging so you can

Flex Layout is unusable
Flex Layout feature is unusable. Not once did it work like intended. Just as an example. I just tried it again with 40 images that were dropped arranged in a grid with the intent of just standardizing the gutters quickly. But it just scrambled the order randomly. It is mind bugling. This should be feature number one. Figma Auto Layout is way better.

PDF export freezing on 99%
Continual problems with PDF exports freezing on 99% and not completing. InDesign is getting worse and worse. Unreliable, unstable, just garbage.

Pages panel not scrolling to allow all pages to be accessible
InDesign v21.3 (Updated last week, no issues until today. Daily use)
This morning when I opened InDesign, I discovered I was unable to scroll and select the last page of the document. The top half of the last page is visible through the bottom bar of the panel where the number of pages is displayed but unclickable. This prevents a change of parent page style, addition of pages in the correct parent style or the selection to override the parent page style.
I have tried resetting my workspace, restarting Indesign and changing panel views. The bottom row remains elusive.
