  1. CC2019 when Exporting to PDF does not remember the filename you have given it

    When exporting a PDF, InDesign normally remembers the name you have previously given the PDF you are exporting - CC2019 does not.

    Example: you have an InDesign document named 'Hello'. You go to export it and InDesign automatically gives it the exported PDF name 'Hello.pdf' in the 'Save As' window as expected, but you rename it 'Goodbye.pdf' instead. If you ever want to export it again InDesign CC2019 no longer remembers 'Goodbye.pdf' as previous versions of InDesign, but reverts back to 'Hello.pdf' - so you have to rename it each time.
    (InDesign CC2019 14.0.1 / Mac running OS X Mojave)

  2. InDesign detects the document to be damaged and repairs it.

    Using InDesign 20 (15.0.1) Trying to open files I get these error messages.
    I have tried opening many documents with ID 20 and get these messages. Files will open fine using InDesign 19 (14.0.3). This issue just started yesterday after using ID 20 for about a month.

    InDesign detected the file to be damaged and repaired it, we notify customers about the repair process using these messages.

    There are multiple factors both internal and external to InDesign application that can lead to document corruption which we are addressing from time to time as we progress and would recommend you to be on the latest InDesign version.

  3. Paste should honor layers!

    Love layers!

    But when I go to an older layout (in a current build) and copy all objects to a reformatted page, everything copies over onto a single layer. This is a PITA, with dozens of objects which should return to their assigned layers, acting as your new feature for pasting groups honors layers.

    Would love to see Copy / Paste All Layers - perhaps combined through a special modifier key command with Paste in Place, equally valuable.

  5. Muli Regular font not supported

    Muli Regular (open source font) does not show in InDD. The font has been installed and re-installed but program does not register that particular font. Customer Support states that Muli is not supported by Adobe, but another co-designer is able to access all fonts (on a Mac), whereas I cannot on Windows.
