1. Folio overlays

   Abode indesign CC 2017 - 08/30 - Windows
   My colleague and I are trying to make a folder with Publish online, and sometimes we need 'Folio Overlays' tool - but it doesn't work. For me it's too big to see on the screen, makes everything slow - and for her, it doesn't work at all, it doesn't show anything at all.

4. AGLFN: ZWJ, ZWNJ, ZWS in PDF

   Indesign is not written ZWJ (U+200D), ZWNJ (U+200C), ZWS (U+200B) with its glyph name uni200D, uni200C, uni200B respectively.

   This is not helping in copying the text with ZWJ (U+200D), ZWNJ (U+200C), ZWS (U+200B) from PDF.

   These non-printing characters are copied has "space" instead.

   These non-printing characters in Indic scripts are part of text. With and without these characters, text can changes its meaning.

   Please support these characters with AGLFN glyph names in fonts in Indesign, PDF export feature.

5. Surface Pro 4 And Gestures

   I have a new Surface Pro 4. When using Adobe applications, gestures on the touch pad (for example pinching or scrolling) either don't work or are really bugy with little control. I was told by Adobe that this is due to the detachable keyboard on the Surface Pro.

6. Multiple Bugs in CC17

   Display issue 1
   Random lines appeared on my screen. Baseline grid and guides were hidden as I was in Preview Mode, no explanation for these lines.

   Display issue 2
   Text doesn’t display correctly when I apply a different Paragraph Style Sheet. (It displays the text in both the original Paragraph Style and new paragraph style on top of one another, even though the new Paragraph Style is selected). I needed to deselect and reselect another paragraph of text to rectify the issue.

   Dialogue box issues
   Both videos show how I’m unable to select from the drop down menu in InDesign. In the first video I want to select the ‘Photoshop Path’ from the Clipping Path dialogue box, but am unable to do so.
   The second video show how I want to create a PDF (via File/Export) but I cannot change the PDF settings from the drop down menu.
   Needed to quit the program and restart to rectify the problem.

8. The lists of entries for a cross reference is not ordered

   Some panels with items (e.g. links) can be ordered by clicking the column header. Others cannot. Among these are the lists of references to choose from when inserting a cross-reference. These seem to be totally unordered. As a result, it is a pain to look for the right one (e.g. choose from a few hundred in a large document). I consider this a bug because other panels do have this ordering

9. Colour picker turns everything to blank with strokes, applies stroke

   Colour picker is broken. Everything is checked, but when I use it, it turns the object picked from into blank with black stroke. When applied, it adds a black stroke. This is true of text, objects, and links. Deleting local settings changed nothing.

10. Profiles equal to the Output-Intend get lost on PDF-Export

    When exporting a PDF all profiles equal to the Output-Intend (which in my case is the Document-Colorspace PSO Coated V3) get lost when exporting.

    I have created a small test-file with an PSO Coated V3 Image and an ISO Coated V2 Image.

    When Exporting as PDF X4 with Output-Intend Set to PSO Coated V3 the Image that IS PSO Coated V3 looses its profile and the same for the ISO Coated V2 when the Output-Intend is set to that.

    This is horrible for Colormanagement. I've been in contact with "Heidelberger Druckmaschinen AG" and they suggested to report this to Adobe as a bug.

    They way it is you can not differenciate between images that don't have a profile and images that already have the correct profile. As a result all images get converted again in prepress - even those that already are in the correct profile.

    If you have any further questions feel free to ask and i'll help out as good as i can :)

    Thanks!

11. Missing color in PDF from InDesign

    I have an InDesign file with a placed PSD file in it, which contains two spot colors. When I save the file as a PDF out of InDesign, only one of the two spot channels is visible.

    I'm running the latest versions of InDesign, Photoshop, and Acrobat. To reproduce, open the attached InDesign file and save as a PDF. The resulting PDF should show a yellow and blue spot, but only the blue is visible. (The PDF generated during packaging also exhibits the problem.)

12. Can't override the keyboard shortcut (shift-e) for the new PC GPU preview

    Go to Keyboard Shortcuts, to View > GPU Preview toggle and delete the Default context shift-e shortcut (as it's already used in my set for Reveal in Bridge). Save, works fine for that session, forgets next restart.

13. Feature request: Link text in body and footnote Please add a function to link a word or phrase in the main text to a word or phrase in a fo

    Dear Adobe InDesign team, I would like to request a new feature for Adobe InDesign: the ability to link a word or phrase in the main (body) text with a corresponding word or phrase in a footnote (or another text frame), so that if the main text moves to another page, the linked text in the footnote will also automatically move together. This feature is very important for professional publishing workflows, especially for complex academic, multilingual, and religious books. For example, in Islamic or scholarly works, it is critical that a term in the main text and its explanation in the footnote always stay together and do not end up on different pages. Currently, InDesign allows us to anchor objects (like images or frames) to text, but not to link text fragments in different frames or footnotes. Adding this feature

15. InDesign 2025 (v20.3.1) freezes when interacting with modal dialog panels on macOS 15.5 (Sequoia)

    Hi Adobe team,

    I’m experiencing repeated, non-reproducible hangs in InDesign 2025 (v20.3.1) when interacting with certain modal dialog panels — such as Panel Options, Color Panel settings, and similar. This occurs on macOS 15.5 (Sequoia). After clicking inside one of these dialogs, InDesign sporadically becomes unresponsive (beachball), requiring a force quit via “Force Quit Applications.”

    The issue existed before a complete clean install of macOS and continues to occur even after the fresh system setup with no migration or prior settings carried over.

    Here are the key system details:
    • macOS version: 15.5 (24F74) – Developer Beta (Sequoia)
    • Mac model: MacBook Pro 16” M1 Max, 64 GB RAM
    • Displays: Dual Apple Studio Displays
    • InDesign version: 20.3.1 (latest Creative Cloud release as of June 2025)
    • No plugins installed
    • Font manager: RightFont (fonts synced via Dropbox folder, no Adobe plugin)
    • User environment: Freshly created custom workspaces
    • Documents: Problem occurs even with new, blank files
    • macOS was clean-installed from scratch before testing

    The hangs are unpredictable and extremely disruptive — multiple times a day — making productive work almost impossible. It’s incredibly frustrating to deal with such instability in basic UI operations like opening panel dialogs.

    Attached is a .hang report from macOS, which shows the InDesign main thread stalling in:
    UI::ModalDialogManager::RunModalLoop()
    BscModalDialog::DoModal()
    ControlPanel::ShowOptionsDialog()

    Other threads remain idle, indicating a UI-level deadlock — likely caused by a modal dialog waiting on OS-level window interaction that never completes.

    This seems related to changes in macOS 15’s window or dialog behavior, potentially affecting how InDesign renders or processes modal components.

    I understand Sequoia is still in beta, but since the issue exists in InDesign’s current public release (20.3.1) and is severe enough to disrupt daily work, I wanted to report it early.

    Please let me know if you’d like additional crash/hang logs or screen recordings — happy to assist further.

    Thanks,
    Marc

    ⸻

    PS: This technical explanation and hang report interpretation were created with the help of ChatGPT, since I’m not a developer myself — just a professional user trying to get work done with InDesign.

16. vertical alignment within a text box is ignoring the space taken up by a wrap object

    I'm on Adobe InDesign 20.3.1 on an M1 Max MacBook Pro currently running Sequoia 15.5, but I always keep my system and apps up to date within a day or two of an update being released.

    The text wrap isn't affecting the vertical centering of text box content in the way it should. The vertical alignment within the text box seems to be ignoring the space taken up by the wrapped object, leading to the content being centered within the entire text box rather than just the available space above the wrapped object.
    In the screenshot, you can see that the text box that overlaps with the wrapping object is centering to the entirety of the text box. A 2nd text box on the left is shortened to show where it SHOULD be aligning to. The warping object is on top of the text box, and the text box does not have "Ignore Text Wrap" checked. Any ideas on a fix?

19. MathML: Fehler der Bedienung sowie weitere Schrecklichkeiten

    MathML hat das Problem, dass, wenn man die Grundformel eingefügt hat, beim nächsten Mal im Editor keine mehr zur Verfügung steht. Problematisch ist das, wenn man den ersten Eintrag im Dokument gelöscht hat. Man sollte immer an die Grundformel kommen, auch wenn man tausendmal klickt, um es im übertragenen Sinn zu sagen. Außerdem ist die verwendete Schriftart des MathML fürchterlich ausgeführt: verschobene Ankerpunkte, ungenaue Kurven etc. Dazu kommt noch, dass die Zeichen am Rand teilweise beschnitten werden. All das ist im typografischen Sinn – unangemessen.

    Bezüglich der Kurvenführung sehen Sie sich als Beispielglyphe das y an! Ich habe einige fürchterliche Teile des y nochmals mit einigen Pfeilen an den zumindest auffälligsten Stellen hervorgehoben. Solche Schriftarten sollte man nicht im Traum für Designsoftware anbieten. Hunderte ähnliche Fehler habe ich Dutzenden Designern und Monotype gemeldet; und sie sind bis zu Nur-noch-online-Plattform dieses Konzerns auch verbessert worden. Durch die Onlinegier ist das jetzt anders und sie bieten ihren Schrott an, den ahnungslose Kunden kaufen. Diese Methode scheint uramerikanisch zu sein: Marktbeherrschung zwar, aber zunehmend schlechter werdende Qualität.

20. Typing letter in Paragraph/Character style Shortcut field results in invisible shortcut being assigned

    How to reproduce this serious bug:

    -Double-click a Paragraph or Character Style to edit
    -Type a letter in the Shortcut field
    -Witness the field remanining blank
    -Click OK.

    Typing this letter in the document will now assign this style, while the letter remains invisible in the Shortcut field.

    A solution (provided the user will ever figure out what's going on) is to select all (Cmd-A) in the shortcut field and press delete (or maybe just delete is enough).
