1. Custom PDF presets erased after update to CC 2018

   I have several saved PDF presets for different clients. All of them had been deleted after upgrading from CC 2017 to 2018. I first thought they were simply not migrated over, but after opening InDesign CC 2017 I noticed they were gone there also! Only the default presets (High-Quality Print, etc.) were showing up in the drop-down menu. I had to go into my TimeMachine update to restore the files.

   Need More Info  ·  Anasuiya Gupta responded

   Hi Annika

   Could you please go to the following location on your system, and check whether your presets are present on your machine or not:
   /Library/Application Support/Adobe/Adobe PDF/Settings

   Also, is there any other Adobe application that is installed on your system, like Illustrator? If yes, could you please check if your presets are shown in those applications or not.

   Regards
   Anasuiya Gupta

2. Hidden content in pdf export

   Adobe InDesign CC 2017. While exporting the file into a PDF. In the PDF while searching for a word I found some sort of ghost fields (picture ghostfields.png). Then I found out that the problem is caused by graphics that we use internally. There are mostly more than just one graphic in one Illustrator file (picture illustratorfile.png). It is saved as an ai, not eps. InDesign exports the parts of those graphics that are actually not visible in InDesign (picture error2.png). I could not find out why, or how to solve it. And because of those ghost field you can not search for anything within the pdf. The only solution was to export the pdf, and then print the pdf with adobe pdf to create a new 'clean' pdf.

3. PDF export freezing on 99%

   Continual problems with PDF exports freezing on 99% and not completing. InDesign is getting worse and worse. Unreliable, unstable, just garbage.

4. Cropped content inside frames becomes visible on older mobile PDF viewers.

   I found a rendering issue in InDesign 2021 (and potentially newer versions). When an image or PDF is placed inside a frame (cropped), the content outside the frame boundaries is still being rendered on older mobile devices' PDF viewers.

   Steps to reproduce:

   • Place a large PDF/Image inside a smaller InDesign frame.
   • Export as a standard PDF (Interactive or Print - High Quality).
   • View the PDF on an older smartphone (e.g., older Android/iOS built-in viewers).
   • The "hidden" parts outside the frame are visible.

   The content outside the frame should be completely clipped or removed from the render stream to ensure privacy and visual consistency across all devices.

   Exporting as PDF/X-1a:2001 solves the issue because it flattens the transparency/layers.

6. Updated version 21.0.2 features not working

   Version of Adobe InDesign, InCopy or InDesign Server: 21.0.2, updated 12.01.2025
   Steps to reproduce the issues: There are multiple issues occurring.
   1. Open existing file, last saved on 11.03.2025.
   2. App freezes when trying to use any function, e.g. copy/paste, duplicate page. Takes up a few minutes for any function to complete.
   3. When trying to save the file, I have to save as a new file.
   4. When exporting to PDF, does not Use InDesign Document Name as the Output File Name despite being selected. If selecting Range, only allows All Pages in dropdown. Does not export accessibility tags despite having both Create Tagged PDF and Use Structure for Tab Order are selected.

   Expected result: for the file to use the document name as the PDF file name, for it to be able to export only a range, and to have accessibility tags preserved in PDF.

   Actual result:
   1. Freeze and lag with each step of the process.
   2. File will not export to PDF. Sometimes getting a Failure pop up but cannot identify any issue.
   3. Have to choose option to open file with, but it does not save the file in the location I selected. I have to resave it in order to run Accessibility Checker.
   4. No tags export with file even though everything is properly mapped in InDesign and exports made 11.3.25 retained the tags.

   Test file, screenshot, video or GIF capturing the issue (optional)

9. InDesign exports out incorrect pdf document when another InDesign file is open and detached from main panel

   This is a weird bug that I just found. I'm using a Mac and have 3 monitors. The OS and all Adobe products are up to date. I am not using InDesign Beta. I have two separate InDesign files open and the second one is detached from the primary InDesign panel and on the other monitor. I have the primary document selected and go to File > Adobe PDF Presets > Press Quality and somehow InDesign will export out the other document that is not selected and on the other screen. I have recreated this twice with the same result. This only happens when I have another document open and detached onto the other monitor. The pdf will have the name of the file that it should be. However, its content will be the other file. Hope that makes sense.

10. Output to PDF removes bleed

    Summary: Output to PDF removed bleed

    Details:

    I laid out a book in Indesign using the 'Book' feature, with several similar sections or documents linked as a 'Book'. Each document based on the same original so all had same settings.

    I needed to output to PDF for the printer, Mixam UK. I downloaded the printer's settings, which include: output to single pages, bleed with no marks, with 'use document bleed' checked.

    I had set up the documents in Indesign in spreads with 3mm bleed as usual from the start. When looking at the output settings BEFORE output, I could see it still said 'use document settings' and showed 3mm bleed all round. See attached screenshot.

    I then output the book (Export Book to PDF) to single page PDF and uploaded to printer's website.

    I did not notice the document in fact had ZERO BLEED. The printer alerted me. I went back and output again. This time I looked more carefully and saw that 'use document bleed' was still ticked (checked), but it had reset to 0mm. I think it does it at the point of exporting the whole 'Book'.

    Workaround: I unticked 'use document bleed' and changed the bleed manually in that box to 3mm. Problem solved. 

    I see that a similar issue has been noted by Adobe but one suggested workaround is to export as single pages, link below. But I was using single pages so that is NOT the solution. Something is going wrong with 'use document settings', perhaps because it was a Book and not a single doc. (I did check each Indesign document is set up with 3mm bleed - yes they are.)

    https://helpx.adobe.com/indesign/kb/bleed-settings-incorrect-export-pdf.html?x-product

    I'm working on a Mac running OS 12.6 and Adobe Indesign 2023 on subscription.

    Anyway hope you can work on this and provide a fix or announcement so that other people don't send off their work without bleed.

    Of course the fact the printer demands a bleed without marks is making it harder for me as customer to check I've got bleed in my PDF! That bit is not your problem!

    Side note: this window for reporting bugs is too small! It's hard to see what I've already said or edit it.

    Thank you.

11. the first letter of the heading does not appear in the result.

    Adobe Indesign (19.0 : 20.0) 2024-2025 / Mac os Sequoia 15.0.1
    When using a Text Variable (Running Header ‹Paragraph Style›) and applying it to fully diacritized Arabic text, the first letter of the heading does not appear in the result. This issue arises when exporting to PDF.
    open indesign and Type the fully diacritized Arabic text, Assign paragraph sytle, go to Text variable - Define - New - Running Header «Paragraph Style» - Assign.
    The text is expected to display correctly without errors; however, contrary to this, the first letter of the fully diacritized text does not appear. This issue arises when exporting to PDF.

15. links don't work on exported PDFs when opened in Microsoft Edge

    Hi there, so in my work I regularly have to make PDF's that have links and tables of contents. They also need to be printable.

    To do this I build them in InDesign and Export as 'Adobe PDF (Print)'. This results in a file that navigates with the view I want with working links and the right colours etc.

    BUT not on Microsoft Edge. Its taken quite a while to realise that that links don't work there. They will work in Firefox, Chrome and Acrobat with no trouble. PDF's made in other programs (I only tested Microsoft Word) work fine as well. The problem is very clearly between InDesign and Edge. (Although I confess I've not tested other Adobe programs like Illustrator).

    After a LOT of research I've found the cause:
    'Fast Web View'

    When saving a PDF I need to unselect this setting and then everything works as expected. The downside is links open in the same tab but I'll can live with that.

    If trying to fix a PDF that is already broken open it in Acrobat then hit crtl+shift+s. From there change 'Save as type' to Adobe PDF Files, Optimised (*.pdf). and select Settings. In settings select Standard in the top left then go down to clean up. In clean-up uncheck 'optimise the PDF for fast web view'. Ta da, problem solved.

    So I guess this both is both the ask and the patch. Although I would very much like to know WHY this happens and if its intended or a bug? It seems to be if you're optimising for 'fast web view' you'd expect working links to be part of the mix.

16. Exporting a page to an existing PDF file

    Hello,
    I've been using Indesign for over 20 years and I often come across the following problem: you're working on a large catalogue, you export it as a PDF and after proofreading, a page needs to be corrected. You apply the correction and export the whole catalogue again, overwriting the previous one, or (another method) you export just the corrected page and import it into the PDF using Acrobat tools.

    It might be interesting to be able to tell Indesign to export only the corrected page and to integrate it directly into the existing PDF in order to save time either exporting or manipulating the page with Acrobat.

    I hope my explanation is clear enough.
    Thx!

18. 19.2 Arabic version, missing periods in exported PDF

    In an exported pdf, periods (or other ending characters) at the end of paragraphs are missing, if the paragraphs were aligned right or justified in the original English version.
    The time-consuming work-around option is to make the period LTR char direction.

19. Hebrew that is conditioinal text does not export properly to PDF.

    1. 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
    2. 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 example of a strange box appearing and diacritical vowels missing on text that has an indesign condition applied.

20. fonts not exporting to pdf properly

    I am using Indesign 2024 on Mac Ventura. Adobe Premier Pro Garamond Cyrillic fonts are fine in InDesign but do not show properly when exported to PDFs. This is ridiculous if not inexcusable. It's an Open Source, Adobe font. Spend time fixing issues like this instead of destroying programs by deleting scroll bars.
