[BUG] Text from pdf disappears when placing a pdf
When placing a (PitStop server certified) PDF some texts in the placed PDF disappear (on screen as well as print).
Only happens in latests Indesign/photoshop/illustrator, older versions work fine.
PDF has no errors or problems in Acrobat pro preflight and PitStop server.
Confirmed by several users in community forum:

The issue has been fixed in the latest release of InDesign – InDesign 2021.
Please update to this new version of InDesign to get the fix.

My problem is, if I have text or elements with color gradient and export the InDesign file to pdf and I open the pdf in Illustrator, the color gradient elements and texts are dropped... Can you fix this with a next update?

We found the source of the problem, apparently InDesign does not handle the otf font that was used correctly (eventhough Acrobat pro finds no problem in Print preflight).
We now worked around the problem by replacing the font with a TTF font.
