1. Fonts displayed as missing with (OTF) appended even though they're installed

   InDesign seems to struggle to recognise installed fonts - possibly something to do with how Skyfonts works?

   A file created with Skyfonts fonts shows the font family in square braces with (OTF) appended and substitutes default font, rather than making use of the identically named font file, sitting in c:\windows\fonts\ on PC / Font Book on Mac.

   Same result if the font files are dumped in a Document fonts subfolder next to the InDesign file.

   Troublingly, using a different font cloud sync app (or in the rare instance where the font is available on fonts.adobe.com) doesn't remove the issue - InDesign lists those in its font family menu without the square braces and (OTF) appended.

2. Footnote reference disappears when adding Unicode 1D513 into line

   I am using InDesign 14.0.2.

   We are a book publisher, and we sometimes use a special character in some of our academic work: a gothic P—the Unicode character 1D513 (Mathematical Fraktur Capital P). See: https://www.fileformat.info/info/unicode/char/1d513/index.htm

   However, it does something very wonky with footnotes, which seems to be a bug. If we insert this character—Unicode 1D513—in the same line as a footnote reference, it makes the footnote reference disappear. The footnote stays in place. We have tried different fonts, but it doesn't seem to be font dependent. However, if it is in the same line, but after the footnote reference, it still appears. So it seems to be some strange interplay of this unicode character and the footnote references.

   I don’t know if there are any other characters that do this, but it doesn’t seem to be font dependent. The only way we are able to make the footnote reappear is to make the paragraph use the Adobe Paragraph Composer, instead of the Adobe World-Ready Paragraph Composer. However, this too is a problem because the paragraphs that use this particular Unicode character often have other languages in them as well, such as Hebrew, and we need the World-Ready Paragraph composer on to make those work, so we can’t just switch that so easily.

   See the attached InDesign document for an example of what happens. You’ll notice the special character P is right before the second footnote, but it is completely invisible, while still being “there.”

   I don’t know if this bug goes beyond this particular Unicode character or not, but it seems strange that InDesign footnotes are not playing well with it.

   Thanks for your help.

   I have an InDesign file if you need a sample, but the uploaded won't let me attach it. Can I email it to someone?

4. Custom Thai character set does not display properly in composite font

   In the Composite Font Editor, I defined a custom character set that includes all of the characters in Noto Sans Thai and tried specifying various Thai fonts to that character set as part of a composite font.

   However, regardless of the font I specified and regardless of what fonts I specified for the other parts of the composite font in certain circumstances three Thai tone characters would not display (U+0E48, U+0E49, and U+0E4C). As far as I can tell, they do display when they are above another tone character, but they do not display if they are the only tone character. I have confirmed that these characters are included in the custom Thai character set that I defined.

   I attached a PDF showing most of the characters in the custom Thai character set I defined and one of many composite font definitions that I tried.

5. CC Libraries Saved Text issue

   In CC Libraries I have pre-set headlines text set with font and kerning. When I drag and drop desired headline into page layout, the font is changed out to something completely different. I've double check the save CC text file is it's as it's should be. I'm not sure what happened or how to fix it. These headlines I use on a daily bases have have hand kerning needed to each, which is time consuming to do each time.

   Screen shots are with a headline what I'm looking to change from "All you need." to "The real deal." Both are pre-set saved headlines in CC LIB. When I drag and drop the line it shows how it appears on the page. The font is white in the file, but to show you the file itself I've changed it to black. I've quick the program.

7. Duplicating Page with table and copy/pasting a table changes content of table BUG?

   Version: 14.0.2

   I have a table that represents a linear calendar. Each month occupies a single row. I created a table to make the calendar, with each date in its own cell. I had some trouble figuring out how to make a new cell start at 1 for each month, as it wanted to continue from the last month's last date (...32, 33, 34, ...). I managed to make it work by changing the numbering options on each individual starting cell.

   However, now when I try to duplicate a page containing the calendar, or if I try to copy/paste the calendar, the individual cell's formatting seems to disappear, as the numbering on half of them continue from the numbering on the previous row.

   Steps to reproduce:

   1. Make a table with enough rows and columns to reproduce the consecutive numbering (For the months, most of my rows are 1-30) The columns represent the weekdays, repeating as many times as needed for the staggered dates.
   2. Select a cell in row 2 and add a blank character. I used 'End Nested Style Here' character per instructions from another InDesign user: Type>Insert Special Character>Other>End nested
   3. With cursor in cell, open Bullets and Numbering dialog. Select Number, put ^# in Number box, and Continue from Previous in Mode box. I also made sure the greyed-out box next to it said 1 (seemed to make a difference when I changed numbers). Then click OK.
   4. Follow the same procedure in a random cell on the next row, except in the Bullets and Numbering dialog you will this time choose a new list in the List dropdown.
   5. Repeat for all rows. Because I'm creating a calendar, the number list (1-30) staggers.
   6. Once the table is full, copy and paste it onto a new page. Then copy the entire page. For me, both produced the same result. 1, 2, 3,... was replaced with 31,32,33,... or 32, 33, 34... on some rows.

   See screenshots for comparison.

9. Editing type size from story editor is inconsistent

   This is a bug, not an idea.

   When I attempt to resize text by highlighting text within the story editor, the changes I punch into the toolbar do not always commit. I often have to make 2 or 3 attempts to get my changes to successfully commit.

   This issue has been persistent over many versions of Indesign, over many Mac OSes.

10. paragraph lines don't fit rounded frame-line

    When using rounded corners on textframes, paragraph-lines don't fit to the right frame.
    We use it with 0,5-pt-framelines and there is a small distance between both lines.
    Depending on typesize (and perhaps on other parameters), the distance has different measures.

11. Option to change the color of bitmap fonts

    We need a way to change the color for white/grayscale bitmap fonts.

    We often use Bitmap fonts for the better texture we can get from them; however, not having the option to change the color of the font, means we have to change the color within photoshop, then either export separate images or entire fonts for each color we use. This is rather inefficient and slows down our process. Having the ability change the color of a white or grayscale bitmap font would be very useful.

    InDesign is not able to write a correct apostroph (looking like a 9 instead a 6). Even PageMaker some 20 years ago was able to create the right apostroph! In Windows you habe to put in Alt + 0146 everytime you wonna write an apostroph. This is not only a pity, this is a shame.

14. No longer shows hidden characters for one particular document.

    I just updated to InDesign 14.0.2 x64 on Windows 7.
    The option Type > Show Hidden Characters no longer works for this document.
    It does not show newlines, paragraph marks, etc.
    This document has one pages at 2.5" x 5" size, with only text.

16. text overlap

    I'm using the Calendar Wizard template to create a calendar and quite often I find when I type text into the date window the text appears to overlap and I can't see what I'm typing (see image). This happens quite often and it's very frustrating. I'm using InDesign 2018 and I'm on a Mac with Mac OS Sierra. I would like to know how to fix this.

19. Ligatures

    I loaded the Adobe InDesign CC Ap from Creative cloud, version 14.0.2 x64. The file I had used before now has missing text! Specifically the "fl" in the Active Ingredients list "Isoxaflutole" which now appears as Isoxa utole" throughout the whole book with empty space for the "fl". Even the word "flowables" appears as " owables".

    The file seems to have "Ligatures" checked in the character palette which I did not check. I'm using Helvetica fonts.
    Any suggestion as to how to get my text back? See attached files.
