Hebrew that is conditioinal text does not export properly to PDF.
- This is the case in InDesign 19.0, 19.0.1, 19.1, current beta version. 2-4. Hebrew text with diacriticals (vowels and others) that is marked as conditional text exports to PDF incorrectly. Diacritical marks are missing or misplaced. Sometimes an unexpected box appears. The same file, with conditions removed exports correctly to PDF. (Other exports, e.g., JPG) are correct. The same file exports properly in 18.5
- Attached files: a. Hebrew text with condition applied and same text without condition applied. This is the pdf export. I would provide the indd file but this webpage does not accept indd files. b. Screen with…

interactive pdf export hangs forever
ID 2023 won't finish the export to Interactive PDF task and hangs for minutes on the "finishing document" stage. It must then be force quit to continue. Cancelling the export doesn't work. Screenshot attached.
ID 18.5.1.79, M1 Max MacStudio, MacOSX 14.2.1
I must use ID 2022 in order to export interactive PDF because ID 2024 is impossible to use with Hebrew files. see here: https://indesign.uservoice.com/forums/601180-adobe-indesign-bugs/suggestions/47461556-you-have-screwed-up-hebrew-in-indesign-19-0-1

Can't export pdf from InDesign then InDesign closes
I can't export a pdf from InDesign, then InDesign itself closes (no crash report, even though I changed the setting so I can see one). This issue has only started today (18 December); the last time I exported a pdf was 4 days ago and it was fine. I'm using Windows Pro 10, have updated InDesign to the latest version, restarted the computer and tried various settings. Please help! I have a client waiting for the document and I can't deliver it. With thanks.

InCopy cannot export assets that were inserted from CC Library into PDF - link reported as missing
The only way to export Notes from InDesign into PDF is to use InCopy, however exporting to PDF form InCopy is now compromised, because any assets in the document inserted from CC Library are reported as missing.

equation
Hi,
Questions from VilniusTECH University about equations printing problems. We have many equations in books and journals and when exporting to PDF, they sometimes lose characters. The most interesting thing is that equations prints once with errors but the next time exporting without errors, although no corrections were made. Equations are formated with Mathtype in a MS Word file and imported to InDesign 19.0.1 become non-editable EPS files. Changing equations fonts, PDF export profiles or Indesign versions does not help. MathMagic is not suitable for us because cannot automatically format questions with our profiles in MS Word file. Please see…

Ocultar páginas
Hola, con la nueva actualización de indesign, podemos ocultar páginas, y al exportar, estas no salen en el pdf. Esto está muy bien, pero ¿qué pasa si tenemos numeración automática y exportamos a pdf? pues que se mantiene la numeración y esto es un problema. Debería de haber una casilla de verificación o algo similar para que no enumere las páginas ocultas al exportar y así saldría perfecta la numeración sin saltar de páginas.

Book-PDF pixelated
Hello Support Team,
I have been having an annoying InDesign issue for quite some time:
I have a total of four computers available (1x HomeOffce, 1x work, 2x from colleagues) on which InDesign is installed. In each case the same program version (version doesn't really matter in this case, but current on our systems is 19.0).
On ONE COMPUTER, since installing InDesign about 3/4 year ago, I have the problem that the PDF output of a book always produces pixelated graphics.
When I output single documents, the quality is correct, exclusively with the PDF output from a book it is…1 vote -
pdf export
Hello.
I've used until 2 weeks ago a CS4 version of Indesign.
Now I have the CC2023.
I've troubles with the pdf export.
The document is always the same, a 720 pages catalogues with Illustrator pictures.
With the CS4, I was able to export 2 pages in around 5 seconds.
With the CC2023, it takes arount 2 minutes, and after that the software don't answer for other 3 minutes.What happens?
Thanks.

Bug ao exportar PDF Interativo
Quando exporto pdf interativo, automaticamente ele insere links em urls, porém, quando a url ocupa duas ou mais linhas, ele insere apenas na primeira linha, tornando o link quebrado e sem funcionalidade. A única forma de resolver isso é colocando manualmente via ferramenta link. Tem com ajustar de forma que o Indesign consiga fazer a varredura do link, verificando se ele realmente funciona e criar automaticamente de forma correta? Obrigado.

Eliminate Generating PDF dialog box
I am constantly bothered by the Generating PDF dialog box for two reasons:
First, it doesn't play well with my dual-screen setup. If I have InDesign on one monitor, the dialog box often shows up on the othe rmonitor, blocking whatever applications or windows I am working on outside of InDesign. Then I must manually drag it over to the InDesign monitor to get it out of the way. Come on Adobe! Many users have multiple monitors. Your apps should remember the locations of all dialog boxes, windows, and panels and not arbitrarily show up in random places.
Second, and…1 vote -
Share for Review
Share for Review and PDF export have been consistently not working. Below is a screen share of my attempting to export a PDF and share for review. I recently got a new computer. I don't know if it's an issue with syncing but it's happening with every document I open. I get notifications from time to time saying PDF won't export because of a PNG file that is misplaced but it doesn't mention what file. Imagine trying to locate the needle in a haystack.
I've closed the files, restarted inDesign, verified that it was up to date, scoured the forums,…

export, printing
I am unable to export or print a document through InDesign 2023. I have no errors in the document, but whenever I try to export the document (which is 113 pages long and has quite a number of images throughout), it just says "Failed to Export PDF File", but gives no reason for why this happened. I do get a pop-up window before the one that says the document failed to export and the pop-up says that some links for either files or hyperlinks are not accessible. I have removed all hyperlinks and all the images are linked properly. Also,…

Package-PDF and Export-PDF create different results
Mac OS Monterey 12.6 / Adobe InDesign 18.3
Function "Create Package" with a PDF and selected job.options (PDF Presets) creates PDF with wrong downsampling for images.
Function "Export PDF" with same PDF Preset creates PDF with expected quality
Why is there a difference?

RGB Gray are not exported in PDF with the same values.
InDesign Version: 18.2.1 x64
When setting a gray scale in InDesign with different patches of equal R=G=B and inspecting the resulting PDF the % values are correct but when inspecting the color values in Acrobat Pro Object Inspector there are some slight differences in the R G and B components.
When doing the same in Illustrator with the same profiles and exporting settings the components are equals.1 vote -
