1. WorldReady settings go missing in [Basic Paragraph] style

   Adobe InDesign (ME) 2021, 2020, CC 2019, ..., CS6
   macOS and Windows

   InDesign's WorldReady settings (Paragraph Direction, Kashidas, etc.) are being stripped from a document's [No Paragraph Style] style when opened on a machine with a missing 3rd-party plug-in (like Em Software's InCatalog). This appears to happen with any 3rd-party plug-in that adds a text attribute with a prefix that's lower than the WorldReady plug-in's prefix. While the following steps use the Middle Eastern app (English Arabic), where there's a UI to see the style's empty/blank WorldReady entries, we've confirmed that this problem affects all app variants (including English (Roman)).

   To reproduce:
   1. Install ME version of InDesign 2021 (English Arabic).
   2. Install Em Software's InCatalog plug-in (http://emsoftware.com/products/emcatalog/ ) or any plug-in that adds a text attribute with a prefix ID below that of WorldReady's 0x50f00. (The SDK's BasicTextAdornment sample will work if its kBscTAPrefixNumber is changed to something like 0x43a00.)
   3. Restart InDesign while holding down Shift-Control-Option/Alt (to ensure the session workspace's [Basic Paragraph] style is rebuilt to include the new plug-in's text attribute).
   4. Create a new document and add a text frame containing a few paragraphs using the [Basic Paragraph] style. This text should compose as right-to-left (the ME version's default direction, as specified by WorldReady's kParagraphDirAttrBoss). Create a numbered list, since that's a great way to see the problem.
   5. Save the document.
   6. Quit InDesign.
   7. Remove InCatalog (or whatever plug-in was installed in step 2).
   8. Restart InDesign.
   9. Open the document that was saved in step 5.

   Alternatively:
   1. Install ME version of InDesign 2021 (English Arabic).
   2. Restart InDesign while holding down Shift-Control-Option/Alt (to ensure a clean session workspace)
   3. Open the attached SavedWithInCat(2021ME).indd file. (Well, UserVoice won't let me upload it. Ask & I can send directly.)

   Notice that the text frame in the opened document incorrectly flows left-to-right and the numbered list's numbers wrongly show on the left rather than the right. Edit the [Basic Paragraph] style and note that the WorldReady settings in the Middle East Character Formats and Indents and Spacing panels are blank/empty. (See attached before-after screenshots.) One would expect a style to survive intact even when opened on a machine with a missing 3rd-party plug-in, but instead some of its settings may be at risk of being lost.

   We've used WorldReady as the victim here, but this problem affects any plug-in, Adobe or 3rd party, that adds a text attribute with a prefix that's higher than the missing plug-in's prefix (such as Em Software's InData).

   Details: We've isolated what looks like a long-standing problem (bug?) with the SDK's AttributeBossList::CopyInto(), where it stops the copy when it encounters an attribute whose plug-in is missing. Instead, the copy should continue after the missing plug-in's entry order to produce a complete list of non-missing attributes. Copies produced by AttributeBossList's Duplicate(), ApplyAttributes(), and its copy-constructor are all affected.

2. Footnotes appear directly under para unless 'Span fn across columns' is selected in text frame or footnote options

   Even when working on a single column layout, with no multiple columns in the document this happens. It means that without selecting the 'Span fn across columns' option the footnotes appear at various places in a page.

   We should not have to select this option for a single column design.

   It also seems to add extra spacing below the paragraph, even if the option is selected. As if the spacing is created for the fn, even though it now appears at the bottom of the text frame instead of after the para!

   This is using v 15.0.1 x64 on windows.

3. InDesign is very slow

   The latest version is virtually unusable. If I select an image or text box on a layout I get a spinning wheel for 10 - 15 seconds. If I try to move something - spinning wheel 10-15 seconds. Try to save a document - spinning wheel 10-15 seconds. Previous versions did not behave this way on this same computer. No other applications behave this way.

   My Mac is a late 2012 model, 32Gb RAM, 2 SSD drives; one for the OS / Applications and one for the customer files. GeForce video card (came with the computer with 1Gb RAM.

   I have attached a Quicktime video of this behavior. The long pauses between seeing the cursor move are the times when the application has a spinning wheel. Then is works for a minute or two and starts all over again.

   Dozens of users in the forums are reporting this problem with this version.

   Hello All,

   Thank you for your patience all this while.
   We had launched our investigation into the matter to get to the root cause of the problem. As the part of our investigation, we had reached out to many of you personally over email.
   We have concluded our investigation and have come up with few findings.

   1. For many of the users the issue got fixed after updating InDesign to a newer version.
   2. For some, the issue got resolved after disabling a third-party application such as Suitecase fusion etc.
   3. For few, the issue was intermittent and is no longer reproducible.
   4. For majority of the users, the underlying cause of the performance issue was identified to be related to span columns, cross-references, third party plugin etc.

   We have created separated threads for these issues and we are now working towards resolving them.

   However, over the time this thread has become too generic to serve its purpose effectively. As per your feedback and the outcome of our investigation we have created multiple threads to address each root cause separately and effectively.
   If you are facing any slowness in InDesign or seeing any other performance issue, we request you vote for the relevant thread or create a new thread specifying the action/workflow which is slowing you down.
   We seek your support in our continuous effort to improve InDesign.

4. Accessible PDF Exported from ID contains SPANS in Reading Order panel

   InDesign Version: 13.1

   To reproduce issue, create an InDesign document with some styles, map styles to tags and export to PDF with tags (accessible pdf).

   Expected result is that in the Reading Order panel (and Content pane), each paragraph is wrapped in an appropriate container.

   The actual result is that each line of text within a paragraph is wrapped in a span container.

   Although this doesn't seem to directly affect the accessibility of the file, it makes additional remediation difficult because of the many containers found in the PDF file.

   Hello All,
   We acknowledge that the issue is slowing you down and we regret the same.
   Our investigation suggests that the issue lies in the latest update of Acrobat and there is little that can be done at our end to resolve the issue.
   The problem has been communicated to the relevant team.

5. Text selection selects whole document AND cursor jumps to top of document after saving

   InCopy 14.0. MacOs Mojave 10.14.4
   I work in a icml-document which was assigned to me from InDesign. It contains references to other documents and a lot of comments (for the designer).
   After I have made the third or later comment, it becomes impossible to select text. InCopy selects the text from the top of the document upto the point where I click the mouse. When I try Option+Shift+Arrow, the cursor jumps to the top of the document. I can save the document, after which the issue is away until I have made a few extra comments, but which also puts the cursor again at the top of the document. This is unworkable, because I continually have to search the position I was editing.
   I have tried to switch from Adobe CC to iCloud Drive, this makes no difference.
   I have tried to copy all the content to a fresh document, this also makes no difference.
   I unfortunately cannot attach the document that I am working on, because this page does nog accept icml-files of a zipfile.

6. can't see content when opening file, covered with red or black blocks or lines

   Issue started with upgrade to InDesign 16.2.1 that when I open file, content appears blank or covered with red or black blocks or lines. I have to repeatedly resize the window in order to work on the page. I also noticed issues when editing text. It only allows me to edit text that is one or two lines above where the cursor appears—very frustrating!

7. Paragraph style changes when copy/pasting

   Indesign 13.1/13.0.1, macOS, UTS 6.1.5

   When copy-pasting text or text frames from one document to another or even in the same document, paragraph style is changed to "standard copy".
   The correct paragraph style is present, allocated and identical in all documents.
   The paragraph style "standard"/"standard copy" is not present in any document (german version) before copy-pasting.

9. Load DTD throws error in InDesign 2022 (17.0)

   When using the structure menu to load a DTD , the latest version of InDesign sometimes throws an error with a single period as the message. I'm using the same DTD I've used successfully in previous versions of InDesign.

   Error text:
   .
   Line 941, Column: 18

   In the context of this DTD, line 941 column 18 points to the % sign used to refer to an earlier parameter entity. This has never been a problem for InDesign before:

   <!ELEMENT sam (%paragraph_styles; | table | footnote | endnote)+ >

   Even using the same DTD in the same file, this issue doesn't always occur. I am typically able to get around the issue by scrolling around the document or clicking on text boxes, then simply running the tool again. It's unclear what could be causing this different behavior each time the tool is run.

   This also affects document.loadDtd in the scripting object model.

10. InDesign Corrupt files

    InDesign users all have to deal with corrupt files sometime during their career using this program. Usually meaning lost time and, more importantly, money. It would be nice if there was a way to have InDesign or another program scan and fix corrupt files (Adobe FirstAid). Dumping this corrupt file into this program would scan the file, find the cause of the error, and isolate it--almost like a virus scanner. Even if this means a page is lost or margins are messed up. It would be nice to at least get some work saved. For example, I throw in a file that keeps causing InDesign to crash. It scans the file. It finds that their is some markup code in a text box on page 23 out of 122 that is throwing an error. This text box is removed, maybe even a red box is put in its place so I know what has been taken out.

11. Active adobe fonts are unstable.

    16.0 x64 - I have been experiencing issues with Adobe fonts, where I can't edit them. For example, resizing to a larger font value or even adding more text. The font (or the entire text box) will completely disappear or it will switch to a default font even though the correct font is chosen. The only way to correct it is to close the document and restart. But it doesn't mean the font will be stable. I don't seem to have this issue with locally installed fonts.

12. Cannot copy/paste elements from 2019 to 2020 without the element becoming an image

    InDesign 2019 14.0.3 copy/paste issue into InDesign 2020 15.0.01 (and vice-versa).

    Steps to reproduce:
    1. In a 2019 InD doc, copy a text box with text inside it.
    2. Open a new document in InD 2020.
    3. Paste the text box with text inside it into 2020 InD.
    4. The text becomes an image instead of live text. Though, no links show up in the links panel.
    5. This can be reproduced if copying from 2020 into 2019. But it does not happen if copying/pasting from a 2020 doc into a 2020 doc, 2019 doc into a 2019 doc.
    6. This happens with other elements, such as boxes with strokes and no text.

    I'm not aware of this happening before or that this is a preference issue. Seems like a bug.

13. Copy and Paste from Share for Review Comments panel not working

    You used to be able to copy/paste directly from the REVIEW panel COMMENT when you receive feedback. Now it won't allow you to copy what someone has reviewed and suggested as replacement text. This is very important as it makes it much more efficient to copy it from within InDesign rather than swapping between screens to do it from the browser. Please can you fix this! Thank you!

14. Placing an ICML file in an InDesign file ignores multiple artboards in AI files if they are embedded

    If you have an AI file with multiple artboards which is an embedded anchored object in a text frame it will always revert back to the first artboard when you place the ICML in InDesign.

    1. Create a new InDesign file.
    2. Create an AI file with two artboards and one simple object in each.
    3. Create a text frame in InDesign.
    4. Place the AI file in the text frame and choose the second artboard.
    5. Embed the AI file.
    6. Export the text frame as an ICML file.
    7. Place the ICML file into the document (not check in/check out).

    What happens:
    1. The "Pages" panel will show the correct preview.
    2. The "Links" panel will show the correct preview.
    3.. The text frame that is created will show the first artboard.

    Images:
    1. AI file with two artboards.
    2. Embedded image of artboard 2.
    3. After placing the ICML into the InDesign file it has reverted to display artboard 1, but the previews in the "Links" and "Pages" palettes are still correct.

    If you have an AI file with multiple artboards which is an embedded anchored object in a text frame it will always revert back to the first artboard when you place the ICML in InDesign.

    1. Create a new InDesign file.
    2. Create an AI file with two artboards and one simple object in each.
    3. Create a text frame in InDesign.
    4. Place the AI file in the text frame and choose the second artboard.
    5. Embed the AI file.

15. Effects Pallet is constantly disappearing from InDesign

    I don't know why, often after a restart of InDesign and sometimes while I'm using it the Effects Pallet disappears and no matter how many times I use the Windows> Effects menu item and it's shortcut Cmd + Shift + F10 I will not appear. It also isn't in the sidebars. I end up having to go through a bunch of preset workspaces until it turns up and then rebuild the workspace.

    Big waste of my time.

16. Share for Review strikethrough & replace text from online edits aren't visible in InDesign or online viewer

    Strikethrough & replace text from online comments aren't visible in InDesign or online. the comments are visible although the visual mark up on the page is missing. Ive tested mutliple browsers and all the same.

    Highlighting and draw tool are working correctly.

    Indesign version 19.5. Chrome and Edge browsers.

    This was working as of a couple weeks ago, now is not.

17. With GPU preview page's content vibrates constantly | InDesign 18.2.1

    I use InDesign 18.2.1 on a MacBook Pro 2023 (M2 Max) with macOS Ventura 13.2.1. When the GPU preview is enabled, the page's content vibrates constantly. Please check the attached video (I made it by putting my iPhone on a tripod in front of my display because if I start a screen recording, the issue disappears).

19. Can't apply colour swatches in swatches pallette

    Indesign version 20.0.1
    Mac OS Sequoia 15.1.1

    Steps:
    1. Create or open a document
    2. Create or select any text box or picture box
    3. Select any colour in the Swatches panel
    4. The colour swatch will hilite for a second when clicked, but then deselects and the colour is NOT applied to the object
    5. Same is true for text: Cannot apply any colour to text using the Swatches panel.
    6. Using the "Color" panel however does allow you to apply colours using CMYK or other spaces.

    Additional Notes:
    - Already tried manually deleting caches and preference files from user library
    - Already tried command-option-control-shift while starting Indesign to delete preferences
    - Rebooted Mac several times and also zapped PRAM
    - Only started happening today (I think Indesign was auto-updated by CC)

20. IDML export breaks structure when there is a tagged single row table at the start of a story

    When exporting an InDesign document to IDML and re-opening it, a specific set of conditions causes the tag applied to a table to be incorrectly reordered in the XML structure, and an extraneous <Table> tag to be inserted.

    This issue occurs when the table is a single-row table and is the very first element in the story (no preceding text or content). This bug disrupts the intended tag hierarchy, breaking workflows that depend on accurate XML structure.

    Steps to Reproduce:

    1. Create a new InDesign document.
    2. Create a text frame on the page.
    3. Within the text frame, insert a table.
    4. a. Ensure the table is the very first element in the story (before any other text or content).
    5. b. Set the table to have only one row.
    6. Apply a tag to the table (in my example CustomTable).
    7. Export to IDML
    8. Open the IDML
    9. Open the Structure Panel and examine the structure. You will observe the following:
    10. a. The "CustomTable" tag now appears before a <Table> tag representing the table. The expected order is the <CustomTable> tag encapsulating, the cells.
    11. b. The "CustomTable" tag is before the actual table in the story, without any content inside of it.

    Expected Result:
    The structure of the document should be maintained after exporting to IDML and re-opening.

    Actual Result:
    The custom tag appears before the table and a <Table> tag is added to the structure, disrupting the intended structure of the XML.

    Environment:
    InDesign 2024 (19.5)
    InDesign 2025 (20.1)
    Windows 11
