Change of indesign behaviour regarding form elements - problems of non printing elements
Indesign Version 15.12x64 Windows
I opened an old document (paper registration/order form) and suddenly became aware that something has happened.
A lot of input fields was visible - in the old version i did never see tham in this view.
But this was not the problem.
The problem was, that if I converted the cocument to PDF with the STANDARD PRINT preset , all boxes were gone.
After some investigation i found out, that those have been converted to intaractive elements also without my knowledge.
Only after i changed the option "INTERACTIVE ELEMENTS" the very last option on the PDF…

Using non-breaking spaces and export interactive PDF creates small boxes in PDF
Using non-breaking spaces and exporting PDF using interactive PDF setting creates small boxes in PDF. Using Adobe InDesign 15.1.2 and macOS Catalina. I have tried multiple fonts in case it was a font issue. This just started happening last week when I did an update.

Even though the book contains three chapters, bookmarks only appear for two chapters
InDesign 2020 - I have create a multi-chapter book. When I use the function "Esporta libro su PDF…" the file PDF obtained has the summary correct (all the chapters are dysplayed) but bookmarks only appear for two chapthers.
I've tried changing the order of the chapters to see if it's a file problem, but the result doesn't change. The last chapter does not appear in bookmarks list.I remain at disposal for any clarification

profil
Bonjour, Le souci est que sur BR mes fichiers Indd et les exports pour impression en PDF ne contiennent aucune mention de "Profil Colorimétrique", alors que mes logiciels Adobe ont bien la même gestion de couleur à savoir : PREPRESSE EUROPE > COATED FOGRA39
J'ai beau Attribuer ou Convertir en profil cela ne fonctionne pas !
Sinon, pouvez-vous me donner la manipulation à faire ?
Merci
Cela est très ennuyeux pour les imprimeurs.1 vote -

Paragraph-Borders are not wrapped in appropriate container - InDesign 15.1.2 (macos)
To reproduce add a border to a paragraph style (not the frame, the paragraph) apply this to an existing paragraph and export to PDF. In Acrobat use preflight to check for pdf/ua compliance. You will get an error message telling there is a content that is neither an artifact nor a tagged content.
To fix this in Acrobat, you have to select the "path" elements in navigation pane and apply an apropriate parent container. Reason for this behavior is, that InDesign places the path that renders the border directly in the structure without a container element. And this does not…

Really, ACTUALLY fix the form field export problem. This is NOT fixed as of August 2020
This bug should not be closed. The issue with exporting form fields and having them show up as tagged in Acrobat is not fixed. Was not in CC2018, isn't still now.

Exporting accessible PDF – wrong BoundingBox
Background:
An accessible PDF needs for all graphics and pictures a boundingbox.
This is used by AT e.g. to set a focus to a visual impaired user.
Using the PDF export a boundingbox is defined for all linked images.Problem:
Often the boundingbox does not fit to the visible area.
AT user get wrong information, in fact the file is not accessible.Reason:
Only a part of the linked asset is visibily placed in InDesign, the rest is cropped.Result:
The boundingbox is bigger then the visible area.Workaround:
You can fix this in Acrobat theoretically, but this is nor…1 vote -

PDF Export issues when INDD contains large EPS file
Using InDesign CC 2020 ver 15.1.1
Exporting an INDD file that contains a link to an EPS image that is 26.8MB. The image is used on multiple occasions through out the piece.
Would expect a PDF on Smallest File Size preset to be smaller than a PDF created at Press Quality preset.
No special steps reproduce this, simply export to PDF using the presets. Did not adjust the downsampling sizes. But when I did this didn't solve the issue.
The reality was that exporting a PDF on Press Quality comes out at 37.6MB and on Smallest File Size is 56.3MB.

PDF export preferences: document-based, not application-based
So I'm working on 3 Indd documents. On one of them, I need a PDF of page 4 only. The preferences are reset for all 3 documents to output only page 4. Why should I have to remember to reset the output for ALL 3 to All Pages? Shouldn't this be a document-based preference, not an application-based one?

PDF export default setting [Smallest File Size] creates a HUGE file (700MB for a 4 page document)
When I want to export a PDF, it is 200 times bigger than I expected. Regardles of if I manually change the compression to a minimum or select any of the preselects [Smallest File Size]. A four page pdf always exports as a +700MB file.
The InDesign version is currently up to date with 15.0.2

Tstype not taken in account for fonts
Hello,
I've noticed the fsType value in the OS/2 table of OTF fonts is not honored by Indesign nor Illustrator.
I've set the value of fsType to 0x0102 and this should prevent subsetting and embedding.
However, Indesign exports to pdf, embedding and subsetting these fonts. Worst, it gives no warning the embedding/subsetting isn't allowed for the current font.I've also tried to package my document and I see the fonts were packaged, while they shouldn't :/
for info, I had flushed any font cache to be sure the font files are the good ones.
