1. Copying a URL Hyperlink auto formats to a opening another indesign file

   I've been having URL hyperlinks that are copied Document A into Document B are auto format as a shared location that is Document A. But all I want is Document B to have the same hyperlinks, and nothing I've tried will prevent "shared destination" as being the default. All I wanted is the an image with a hyperlink to copy into Document B as a URL. Instead I have random InDesign documents opening without warning and then indesign crashes. I've ended up needing to delete all hyperlinks (attached to both text and images) and entirely reformat each one. Without accidently opening the shared destination document. I'm sure there is a use case for linking between documents, but why is the default for copy-paste opening a document rather than keeping the website URL?

2. InDesign does not load type library on upgrade

   Similar to the 2020 release (see https://indesign.uservoice.com/forums/601180-adobe-indesign-bugs/suggestions/41072476-type-library-is-not-automatically-created-by-cc202), InDesign 2022 does not install the type library in upgrade. Please include this with the installation, as this will cause errors for many users.

4. Fonts defined in existing Paragraph / Character Styles Missing after Creative Cloud font type change

   VERSION: InDesign 2022 V 17.0.1

   We activated the Museo Sans Rounded font via Creative Cloud and have used it in our documents since 2015. Until recently, the font activated by CC had a font type of OpenType Type 1. This font is still available on CC, but its font type appears to have changed to OpenType True Type.

   Documents that used the OpenType Type 1 font in a Paragraph or Character style now show this font as missing. The missing font name now displays as Museo Sans Rounded (OTF) in Find / Replace fonts and Paragraph and Character Styles panels. The font type under Find / Replace fonts is OpenType Type 1.

   Documents that used the same OpenType Type 1 font without declaring it in a Paragraph or Character style synchronize successfully with the OpenType True Type font on CC and do not show up as missing. The font name displays as Museo Sans Rounded throughout the document. The font type under Find / Replace fonts is OpenType True Type.

   A CC library asset that used the OpenType Type 1 font can be dropped into a new blank document without producing any missing font errors. Paragraph and Character styles associated with the library asset display a font name of Museo Sans Rounded. The font type under Find / Replace is OpenType True Type.

   The same library asset shows the font as missing if dropped into a file with existing Paragraph or Character styles used by the asset. The font name displays as Museo Sans Rounded (OTF) in Find / Replace fonts and Paragraph and Character Styles panels. The font type under Find / Replace fonts is OpenType Type 1.

5. Display bug – garbled font randomly show up

   Font display bug – garbled font weirdness

   InDesign 16.4 on macOS Big Sur 11.5.1

   When flipping through pages I get this strange font display issue. See screenshots.
   It happens randomly. Not on every page but at least once every 10 pages.

   I can simply turn preview on and off or go to the next page and back to make the page behove normally again but this should not be necessary.

   This happens with all fonts.
   This happens every day.
   This happens on my colleagues computers as well. They are running various versions of indesign of various version of MacOS.
   This has been happening in at least the last three or four versions of InDesign.

   And, yes, we have tried resetting preferences, restarting, reinstalling, etc

   Any explanation for this stange behaviour?

6. Document grid hiding guides

   When unchecking "Grids in back" in preferences>grids, the document grid hides all guides that are places on it.

   That is, if for instance I place a ruler guide at the 2mm mark, and it happens to fall on the document grid (or its subdivisions), it will not show.

   That is even when the guides are in a different color.

   This is extremely problematic, especially in cases where I want to have an image/solid color as a background for my spread, and I want to make use of the document grid and also specially placed guides.

   Please fix this, or at least make it an optional preference that we can uncheck.

   Thanks a lot,
   Alon

7. Font list scrolling performance is laggy even on loaded M1 Max laptop

   When slowly scrolling through my font list with a text box active on the page, the scrolling is laggy. It halts regularly.
   When scrolling fast, there is no problem.

   I guess the slowness has to do with the preview function when text is active.

   Preferred solutions would be
   1) better performance
   2) only preview when you click the font or
   3) provide a setting to turn previewing on the page off.
   
   I don't have an extreme number of fonts, and I use FontExplorerX to manage my fonts.
   I would expect this to be a fluent experience on a 32Gb RAM M1 Max 16 core laptop. Thanks for a fix.

8. search and replace clipboard contents

   I cannot do a document-wide search and replace with clipboard-contents (formatted), when using Change All. When I attempt to replace any text with the clipboard-contents (GREP: ~c), it goes through the document, seemingly highlighting and replacing the text, but doesn't in fact change anything. It works when I do the exact search and replace string, but only using Find-and-change, and not when using Change All. Going through each instance (500+) one-by-one would take ages. Please fix the document-wide, Change All search-and-replace with clipboard-contents (formatted).

10. Regenerate QR-code upon opening IDML

    Third party tools are able to edit the content of a QR-code. However, when opening the edited IDML, the QR-code image itself is not being regenerated until the user manually edit's the QR-code en saves it.

    I would expect InDesign to regenerate every QR-code upon opening an IDML file.

    Use case: translating IDML files using CAT software, where the content of QR-codes needs to be translated (another URL destination per language)

    InDesign Version: 17.0.1

    Steps to reproduce the issues:
    1. Create QR-code in InDesign.
    2. Export document as IDML.
    3. Edit QR-value directly in the IDML (value for UrlLink attribute of <HyperlinkQRCode> element)
    4. Open IDML file

    Expected result
    QR-code image regenerated based on the value in the IDML file

    Actual result
    QR-code image is still reflecting the old value

11. InDesign version 17.0.1: Captions generated in InDesign do not export with accessible tagging structure.

    I'm trying to get my captions to tag properly when exporting to a PDF (for accessibility purposes). I used the caption functions in InDesign (Caption Setup and Generate Static Caption) to create captions for my images. I watched a tutorial that showed this process and the end result was text tagged as "Caption" and nested underneath the Figure/Image.

    Unfortunately, when I export, the caption is tagged as regular paragraph text (<P>), and it is not nested with its associated image. Any tips on how to fix this? I'm trying to do things correctly on the InDesign side, so I won't have to do as much remediation in Acrobat.

12. Data marge help page QR code section needs visual help

    I'm not doing QR codes daily, only on some jobs and some trainings. SO I often refer to the right help page.

    Where the image field section is precise, and adds visuals of the table itself :

    "Add image fields in the data source file
    (…)
    At the beginning of the data field name, type an “at” symbol (@) to insert text or paths that refer to image files.
    The @ symbol is required only in the first line; subsequent lines should include the image paths. Paths, which are case-sensitive, must follow the naming conventions of the operating system in which they’re stored."

    The QR Code section gives only little information AND only mentions ONCE the required # sign (which I never remember)

    "Though the data entries can be a mix of email, sms, hyperlink, or plain text type. Enter them in the .csv and txt field in the above mentioned format with a # sign on their column name. To generate QR codes, follow these instructions"

    Go spot that when in a hurry.

    PLUS the data merge panel preview only shows text and images icons, It would really benefit from adding one QR Code line example AND mention those @ and # signs in this section or prerequisite sections.

14. Ajouter une fonctionnalité "État d'objet" pour les objets non imprimable en pdf intéractif

    Est-il possible d'ajouter une fonctionnalité sur indesign permettant de rendre un objet (exemple : lignes noirs sur un formulaire interactif) non imprimable lors de l'impression de ce document. Donc attribuer à cet objet un "état à l'impression" dans un sens comme dans l'autre.

    Une fonctionnalité qui permettrait à une entreprise de remplir son document interactif de type formulaire et si elle souhaite l'imprimer sur son copieur, que celui-ci sorte proprement sans les petits lignes. Ou à l'inverse que les lignes ne s'affichent pas en pdf intéractif mais à l'impression s'imprime pour permettre de compléter le document à la main.

    The options are still there in InDesign and Acrobat to have page transitions but they no longer function. Is this a Mac issue as, apparently, Windows users don't have this issue

    Background colors (that should just be white) go crazy on tables and other pages until InDesign is quit and re-opened. There's no specific action that seems to trigger the issue, and it appears intermittently. This is happening on version 16.4.0.54.

19. PLEASE do not close this yet: Hyperlink alt text is ignored in the latest version of Indesign

    While Ravi Kiran and Dax Castro consider this closed, my US government contact does not. I need all the hard work I put into placing this hyperlink alt text into InDesign to come across into the OBVIOUS place in the PDF. Why is that such a hard ask? It seems like it could be in both places. Buried where my client cannot find it and where they can see it easily. Please reconsider. Thank you.

20. If a list has a span, footnotes will appear before the list, not at the bottom of the page.

    I have many list paragraph styles, some of them formatted as spans. When I hit a footnote, it appears above the span, and can only be sent to the bottom of the page when the span is removed. This happened before and after the latest upgrade.
