Strange characters appear when pasting any text from anywhere
I have InDesign CC2019 - Whenever I paste from any program (Word, Outlook, Notepad) into InDesign there is an odd boxed character with an X anywhere there was a line ending in the original. There are no soft returns or hard returns or anything in the originals it just word wrapped in a spot - and InDesign inserts a character which I cannot search for or replace.

Pasting objects from Illustrator extremelly slow
Pasting objects from Illustrator is extremelly slow for me. It takes up to 10 seconds. The issue only occurs in direction. Copying graphics from Photoshop or Powerpoint to Indesign does not produce this issue. Copy paste from Indesign to Illustrator also has no issue. I have reinstal both the latest Illustrator and Indesign CC. See the video and my system performance. Clipboard settings are set to what worked recommended and what worked for me fine on a slower machine before.
Thank you for help

A few of pages are generated as the empty page in the exported PDF file from time to time
When I try to generate my INDD file to PDF via the Export to PDF function of InDesign, a few of pages are generated as the empty page.
. This happens from time to time (not always), even though I perform it with same file. (For example, if I retry to generate the PDF file without any amendment in the INDD file, this problem is fixed.)
. Here, "empty page" means that all object is not shown on those pages - doesn't mean that the objects moves to the next pages.

PDF Comments Insert Issues
PDF Comments do not insert at the correct location when the Insert is marked at the start or the end of a paragraph. The insert at the start of the paragraph instead gets inserted at the end of the previous paragraph. The insert at the end of a paragraph instead gets inserted before the final character (tested with period and question mark and happened with both).

Entire page missing elements and objects, and unable to select objects
After updating to 14.0.1, I opened a project and found that one of the pages (just this one page for some reason) had missing objects, missing elements, and the objects on the page were unable to be selected unless I clicked and dragged from the outside of the page to select everything at once. The missing images showed up elsewhere in the catalog and appeared in the links panel under the correct page, but did not appear in the page. After closing and re-opening the same file in InDesign CC 2018, everything was intact and totally fine. This issue rendered…

panels keep moving
The tool panels keep changing position, flying out or closing in a seemingly random manner. Certainly their movement is counter productive to any given use.
I've just updated to ID 2019 and my panel positions are all lost. This is after several month of wrestling with the demented behaviour Adobe has given them.
In the 'old' days, one set up the panels how preferred and pretty much left them alone.
Could Adobe please return to this functional panel behaviour and stop them flying out, moving about, or getting lost on each update?
Having to click things open and close don…

Text Form Fields do not export with inDesign CC 2018 14.0
Form Fields do not export at all in the PDF when exported in the current version of inDesign. I am using the same exact settings as I did before I updated, and links DO work. Form fields just do not appear.
To recreate:
1) Make boxes where fields are required (in this case, on its own layer, which is visible and active)
2) Using the Buttons and Forms panel, convert them to text boxes
3) Export to PDF, making sure that the boxes for exporting interactive elements are checked, and the dropdown says to include appearanceResulting PDF does not…

For the Form Fields to work, you should choose Adobe PDF (Interactive) Format instead.Hope this helps.

Jumbled Text
I'm having an issue with catalogs I'm working with. When I open the most recent version of an INDD file, there is jumbled text in the headings and subheadings, even though the PDF exported fine when the file was last opened. Advice?

Going to the end of the line includes the whitespace(s) also
Typing in illustrator has an issue when going to the end of the line - when pressing the End key moves the cursor to the end of the line, including the space; therefore typing again will prepend text to the word on the other line.
To reproduce:
- Type a text which is long enough to break on the next line. Let's say, the text will break between "word1 word2"
- Go to the first line.
- Hit End, then x on the keyboard.
+ Expected result: "word1x word2"
+ Actual result: "word1 xword2"

incopy
InCopy is going SO slow it's greatly reduced our efficiency in editing magazine text. Every text box takes at least 1 whole minute to check in and out of, and even when I've opened the text box, it takes ages for me to move my cursor to make an edit. I can barely move my mouse without it freezing up. This is happening on all of our work computers and my laptop at home, so it's not an isolated issue. Also three of our computers are brand-new and those computers are also having the same issues with InCopy. This started…

indesign not printing
I recently upgraded to Mojave. I have the Adobe Creative Suite Premium and a Canon ip3500. Printing from the internet and PDF work fine. Illustrator CC 2019 and InDesign CC 2019 won't print directly from the app. I find it silly and inefficient to save a document as a PDF for printing.What happened and how do I fix it?
When I send the file to print, the printer goes through the motion but all I get is a super faint outline of the art. The image is a solid fill of 100% black. The printout is a 20% outline of…

short name in wrong order in TOC
In an index listing by surname of the author the name Li, J. is wrongly placed after Libeau, M. I put this to the forum but nobody can find a fault or fix. See https://forums.adobe.com/message/10822337#10822337

Publish Online Does not work if you have Allow Download (Print) chosen.
Publish Online will get stuck at 98% if you choose the option to allow for download (Print). Even if you go to the Advanced tab and change the PDF settings, it still will not work.

data link
In Adobe In Design CC 14.0.1 x64
We use a previous file to keep the formatting of a merged mailing list. I used to be that when you copied the file to a new directory it could no longer find the old data file and gave you a warning. It also would not show you a preview because it could not find the data.Unfortunately, the new version seems to have held the old data so we printed the old merged file by mistake. It doesn't even make sense that it should be able to do this if the link…
