1. Spellcheck Bug

   Spellcheck/User Dictionary keeps defaulting to random languages and cannot not be changed. I've changed my preferences to English (US) several times manually and it will not fix the problem. Please fix this bug.

2. Split columns not working in cell

   The span/split column paragraph setting doesn't work if the text happens to be inside a cell.

   So you can't have your paragraph split into two columns inside a table.

   Please fix!

3. Fit Content to Frame on textbox makes huge gap at the bottom

   InDesign 16.1 x64 on Windows 10

   When I select a textbox and select Fit Frame to Content (by shortcut, menu or toolbar button), the textbox is resized correctly on the horizontal plane, but the height of textbox jumps to an incredibly stupid size.

   Double-clicking on the bottom centre textbox frame handle then resizes the height correctly - thus creating an extra step for the functionality that was previously a single shortcut key.

   Video attached.

4. Cannot place Excel .xlsm files

   Adobe InDesign 2021's File > Place... dialog does not allow the selection of Excel .xlsm files even though it appears to be capable of importing them.

   On Windows, this can be worked around somewhat painfully by showing "All Files" in the Place dialog, but in macOS there is no similar workaround.

5. Apple M1 Mac mini. Big Sur, InDesign CC 2021, tables are SLOW

   I've created a 6 column, 355 row table. No fill, default black stroke. I've created this same table, from the same data 100 times on my 2015 imac, running InDesign 2017 thru 2020. High Sierra was the highest MacOS on previous computer
   When I copy a word or phrase (100 or fewer characters) and paste it into another cell, it is showing the thinking beachball for 15 seconds. I'm simply double clicking on 5 characters to copy, then clicking into another table cell to paste the word. Everything that I had previously completed using tables in previous versions was quick. The 2021 version running on Big Sur and the M1 chip is painfully slow.

6. Document Fonts slows everything down

   There is a huge speed / usability problem with text boxes that happens when there is a Document Fonts folder contiguous to the InDesign file. I think it doesn't even have to be a text box with a font from Document Fonts.

   Clicking into or escaping out of text boxes impossible or freezes InDesign. Whole app is super slow, and unusable.

8. Type tool deselects itself InDD 16.0

   Type tool deselects itself InDD 16.0

   The bug has been already reported, it's been claimed to be fixed a while back, but actually still persists. I personally never had this problem before, but after updating to v16 a few weeks ago I get it now.

   Typing "T" just selects the type tool very briefly, then changes back to the previous tool. Clicking inside a text frame has the same result, even if you get to select some part of the text, it just changes back to the previous tool in most of the cases. The only way to get it work, is to select the tool in the sidebar, however even there it takes several seconds to become active.

   Using InDD 16.0 on a PC W10.

   InDesign has started supporting SEA languages since ID 2020. Adobe WR composer needs to be selected to compose in SEA languages correctly. Since Thai is a SEA language, please use Adobe WR composer for the correct composition of the text.

10. Stroke Drawing Order | Row Strokes In Front issue

    Hi everyone,

    I'm facing a problem in indesign and I assume this should be reported as a bug unless someone has a solution to it, so…

    I work with a lot of tables, and sometimes, for more lisibility, I have a insert "gutters" to table columns (actually it's white right strokes on my cells), sometimes it's just the client who wants them everywhere on tables. Anyway, there's a great feature in table styles that let me decide whether the row stroke is above the column stroke or the other way.

    it works perfectly when choosing Column Strokes In Front, every rows are "cut" by column borders, even the first and last one. But when I need the first and last rows not to be cut bye choosing Row Strokes In Front, there's still a little part of the row that is cut by my column gutter, here's an example attached to this message.

    I thought at first that it was just a displayed issue, like we often have in acrobat with tiny details, but the problem is still here when printing the table.

    Is there something I could do or it's a known problem from indesign?

    For information, I tried to change the weight of both strokes to see if it does change something, but it doesn't.

    All the best,

    Nicolas

11. RTL quote reverse

    The right and left single and double quotes (U+2018, U+2019, U+201C, U+201D) are displaying (and outputting) reversed in InDesign 14 and 15 when bringing in RTL text. I see no way via a style or setting to fix them, I can only use the wrong ones to make them look correctly. It is not only difficult to fix, but it introduces an opportunity for error, means I am editing the text supplied by my client (something that is very bad policy for us), and makes my file underlyingly inaccurate for archiving.
    In the attached screenshot, you can seen the the right double quotation mark U+201D highlighted. It is facing to the left in InDesign and (properly) to the right in the Tasmeem add-in tool.

12. Paragraph bottom border overlaps the text

    As I mentioned here: https://community.adobe.com/t5/indesign/paragraph-bottom-border-overlaps-the-text/m-p/11348398?page=1 the issue occurs when I set a paragraph style with a border and additionally anchor a text frame at the end of it. The border overlaps each time changes to text are made (additional lines, adding a page, deleting a page – everything that causes the flow of the text).

    Some similar issue was reported here https://indesign.uservoice.com/forums/601180-adobe-indesign-bugs/suggestions/38784706-footnotes-in-paragraph-borders-style by swapan.

    InDesign version ID 2020 15.1.1 and PR Installer (15.1.2.221) on Windows 10. The problem occurs since I have started using a combination paragraph border + anchored text frame (more than 8 month ago). For testing I created totally new files with demo content (Lorem ipsum) and totally new styles created inside the new files. The preferences were reset.

    It is easy to manage it manually when you have a single file and only one paragraph bordered. Making any change inside the paragraph adjust the bottom border. But when you have a book with over 30 files with over 30 problematic frames, it is hard to manage it.

13. rectangle frame tool

    The large X in the frame has disappeared when using the rectangular frame tool. Is this a preference issue or a change to the basic functionality of InDesign? I would really like to be able to use it again. It made my work a lot easier.

14. Menu item "Convert footnotes and endnotes" missing

    Although my software is up to date, the option "Convert footnotes to endnotes" is missing from my "Type" menu item (image). The interface is in portuguese, but you can see there are only four itens on the footnote/endnote area, the fifth ("Convert footnote to endnote") is really missing...
    I tried unistalling and installing InDesign again from Creative Cloud but it didn´t solve this issue. This menu item is also unavailable on Edit>Menus...

17. Type is shifting inside text box upon moving.

    I've been noticing when I use the type tool, I can fill it as normal. Style things with the appropriate fonts/colors but should I move the box it self to a new location the spacing above the font will grow or shrink and shift everything inside that text box. It almost acts like it is adjusting like it has text flow around an image feature selected. Sometimes remove all the styles then re-applying them will fix it but this is issue had been annoying me for maybe the past 2 months.

18. anchored, free positioned object inside text frame is wrongly wrapped

    And this is old bug.
    1. place a graphic inline at the start of paragraph,
    2. switch on "wrap around" in "text wrap" options
    3. make place for graphic making apriopriate left indent for paragraph.
    Whole text in paragraph is indented reflecting the shape of wrapped object

    This bug was once repaired few years ago, but now it returned.

19. For text frames with inset spacing and shaped corners, the text frame can auto-size to be much wider than the actual text

    InDesign: 15.0.1 x64
    Creative Cloud: 5.1.0.407

    This behavior varies depending on the combination of:
    - typeface
    - font size
    - corner size
    - inset spacing
    - actual text contents in text frame

    1. Put a few words in a text frame, and keep the text frame selected. I can trigger this easily with Minion Pro, Roboto, and Inconsolata.

    2. In Object -> Text Frame Options:

       • In the General section, set Inset Spacing to some nonzero value.
       • In the Auto-Size section, set Auto-Sizing to Height and Width, and enable No Line Breaks.

    3. Select the text frame with the Selection Tool. Set the corners to Rounded (or anything else that isn't None) and set the corner size to some nonzero value.

    4. Select the text frame with the Type tool. Using the little up and down buttons, repeatedly increase or decrease the size until the text frame auto-sizes to something way wider than the actual text. I've estimated this to be 3x to 10x the text width, depending on the factors listed above.

    Specific example:

    Minion Pro - Regular
    0p1 rounded corner size
    0p1 inset spacing
    Text: "typical example" (without quotes)
    Text frame is super wide at multiple font sizes between 10pt and 50pt. See screenshots for good results at 34pt but bad results at 35pt.

    InDesign: 15.0.1 x64
    Creative Cloud: 5.1.0.407
