Create Merged Document causes Indesign to hang and crash
- Version of Adobe InDesign, InCopy or InDesign Server: Adobe InDesign 2021 v16.4 macOS Big Sur 11.6
- Steps to reproduce the issues: Select Data Source in Data Merge panel options Assign data placement field in document's master page Click "Create Merged Document..." in Data Merge panel options
- Expected result: InDesign should insert data from selected source document and create new pages for all records.
- Actual result: Source document is imported correctly, and preview in Data Merge panel displays correct data, but when I click "Create Merged Document..." in Data Merge panel options it cause Indesign to hang, the application stops responding and I need to Force Quit. Document does not merge. Screenshot uploaded.
