Missing fonts, spell checking not working with InDesign 2020 build 15.0.2
There are two bugs with InDesign 2020, build 15.0.2, which make it unusable for me. I have reverted to build 15.0, and the two bugs are not in that build.
Bug 1 is that often when I export pages as a pdf, or I package the document, the fonts I am using in the document become missing afterward. I need to quit InDesign in order to have InDesign find those fonts again.
Bug 2 is that spell checking no longer works. The spell checking window comes up, but it never catches any misspellings.
Reverting InDesign to build 15.0 takes care of those bugs. I'm not sure what the problem is with build 12.0.2, but it is unusable.
I am running Mac OS Catalina 10.15.3 on a MacBook Pro (13-inch, 2018, Four Thunderbolt 3 Ports) with 16 GB of ram.

Same problems for me on v 15.0.2. I am using Mac OS Catalina 10.15.4 on iMac.
BUG1 - Missing fonts dialogue when exporting (even though I have the fonts installed on my computer). It only seems to happen when I try to re-name the file something other than the working file name. I find if I save it as the working file name, it allows me to export to PDF without issue.
BUG2 - Dynamic Spelling and Spell check not working. I've tried turning things on and off, tried intentionally misspelling words, but it is not working.
I will try to reverting back to 15.0 as you suggested until it is fixed. Can't use this version without being able to properly save or check for spelling errors.
