Do not tag numbered headings as a list item
Unfortunately, the “Tagging Export” option within the paragraph style options getting ignored if the numbering options in the section “Bullets and Numbering” are set as well. Therefore, it’s not possible to use automatically numbered headings and getting a correct tagging structure. On the other hand it’s a good thing that lists are automatically tagged as a list. However, it should not override the export tag a user defined.
Please take that accessibility issue seriously and fix it as soon as possible.

Extendscript hangs CC2019 (14.0.2) on macOS
Code below works fine on Windows and CC 2018 on Mac. But CC 2019 Mac it hangs the app once clicking the OK button in window 2. I've tried three different Macs including Mojave and High Sierra. All the same result. Pretty sure it's not just me. This bug has broken a number of my scripts that present a secondary window for saving settings.
var w1 = new Window("dialog", "Window 1");
var btnOpenWindow2 = w1.add("button", undefined, "Open Window 2");
var btnOk1 = w1.add("button", undefined, "OK");
btnOpenWindow2.onClick = function () {
openWindow2();
};
btnOk1 = function () {
w1.close();
};
w1.show();…

Not all fonts are collected in a package.
This is for InDesign 14.0.2 x64
To reproduce the issue, package any file and be sure the include fonts option is ON.
Expected result is, as it ever was, that all fonts used in the document will be included in the "Fonts" folder of the resulting packaged file.
Actual result is that some or all of the fonts are omitted.

GREP, odd behaviour in InDesign v. 14.0.2
Search and replace with GREP in InDesign version 14.0.2 behaves oddly.
This simple GREP used to work fine:
(?<=\s)([\u\s\,]+)$It matches upper case letters, commas and space between them at the end of a paragraph. But now it only matches some of them.
Really strange.

Stop making InDesign preferences default to rich black
Stop making the InDesign preferences default back to "rich black" under appearance of black whenever InDesign is updated, or the preferences are cleared. InDesign was originally created for print designers despite this expanding in this screen it should still default to " display all Blacks accurately", and "output all Blacks accurately". Since the change in the setting for print designers could end up costing quite a lot of money if not caught before it goes to press.

"Go back on roll over" interactive button state checked/greyed out
I was working on an interactive project and found that the "go back on roll over" option becomes turned on and greyed out so you cannot un-check the box when adding an "upon release" action to a button. I initially could NOT figure out why this was happening, and it was totally screwing up my on-click actions in my project.
Eventually, I think I figured out that it seems to happen when you create a button, add an "on roll over" action and check the box "go back on roll off", then create ANOTHER action (like "on click"), and then…

Selecting 'No language' from styles advanced options really exports the tag to EN in PDF
When you have a document with multiple languages and the main language isn't available in InDesign's presets, ie the document is mainly in Kirundi or Samoan and there are some English phrases, a user should be able to select 'No language' from the style's advanced options. Instead, 'No language' will export as EN and the tag in the PDF will have EN listed as the language in the tag's properties. This is problematic because the tag's language will override the document's language properties. This is a clear failure of WCAG SC 3.1.2 (language of parts).

"Unable to adjust document layout due to an error."
- Adobe InDesign CC 2019
- File >Adjust Layout > I select Custom page size; Auto-adjust margins to page size change; Options - adjust font size, adjust locked content.
- Expected result: page and all objects and fonts shrink from those I needed for a 8.5" x 11" (letter sized) doc. to 7.222" x 6" (6-column newspaper ad size) I need to produce a print-ready PDF for newspaper layout.
- Actual result: the error message "Unable to adjust document layout due to an error." (note: the preflight shows no errors, all links working, everything copacetic).

Keyboard shortcuts to change case not working on Windows
Keyboard shortcuts to change case of lines of text is no longer working. Apart from Alt-T to get up the text menu, I'm now having to use the mouse to select the further options to change to Title case. The sequence Alt-T-E-T, no longer works. As I frequently have many entries which need unifying each time I use it, this once useful feature is sorely missing. Please can you fix it Adobe?

Short Cut Keys no longer work in Indesign 2019
Indesign 2019
Most of the old standard short cut keys no longer work and I cannot find anywhere what the new ones are or if I can change to a legacy mode. I'm talking basic old school short cuts like "space" to bring up the hand tool temporarily and the "shift" key to proportionately scale an object. Can anyone help me out with this as my productivity is grinding to a halt and I am not happy one bit.4 votes -

PDF Export causes Acrobat to crash
I am having trouble exporting InDesign files to PDF.
This is what I'm seeing:
Exporting PDFs from InDesign works fine if no PDF is open. If you have a PDF already open or are exporting a 2nd PDF with the first still open it crashes Adobe.I have updated Windows to a later version, checked drivers, the event viewer logs. I looked for similar issues online, repaired Acrobat from Control panel and from within the app.
Please share any advice.
4 votesHi,
Please let us know if it the InDesign application crashing or Acrobat?

InDesign CC2019 - faux bold text issue when exporting pdf.
Only the pages with text+jpg are exported properly.
The pages with any other image type with some transparency, i.e. psd, ai, even png, have bold text after exporting to pdf.It's an old issue, coming back every now and then in many InDesign editions in the past. So we all should know how to deal with it, shouldn't we? Well, here is the rub. The trick with the text placed on a separate layer on the top doesn't work anymore. Nothing works, actually. It's a major bug. A reason to downgrade to the last correct version. I needed to export…

Gradient Angle Resets to Default when Changing Color in Gradient Swatch
I have an object selected that has a gradient swatch applied to it, and the gradient goes from top to bottom. I then go to the color menu and double-click the gradient swatch. Now when I click on one of the two color squares in the gradient swatch the angle of the gradient on the selected object will revert back to its default angle (left to right). This only happens to objects that I have selected. Both on my macbook and windows pc. InDesign version 14.0.1
