Display bug – garbled font randomly show up
Font display bug – garbled font weirdness
InDesign 16.4 on macOS Big Sur 11.5.1
When flipping through pages I get this strange font display issue. See screenshots.
It happens randomly. Not on every page but at least once every 10 pages.
I can simply turn preview on and off or go to the next page and back to make the page behove normally again but this should not be necessary.
This happens with all fonts.
This happens every day.
This happens on my colleagues computers as well. They are running various versions of indesign of various version of MacOS.
This has been happening in at least the last three or four versions of InDesign.
And, yes, we have tried resetting preferences, restarting, reinstalling, etc
Any explanation for this stange behaviour?

Magnus, did you ever get a fix for this? I've had this exact same issue over many years with different Mac OSs and different computers. Doesn't seem to appear if you select Preview on CPU. A GPU problem? Currently on InDesign 19.5 Mac OS 15.2 Mac Studio M2 Max.
