1. Black Backgrounds When Copying PNG from Web to Indesign (Return of Bug)

   This is a recurring bug that was solved in a few past updates, but, it's back in InDesign V. 18.5.

   When you copy a transparent background PNG from Google Images (or any website) and paste it into InDesign, it will display a black box as the background.

   If you paste the same image into Photoshop, copy that, paste it into InDesign, it will not show the black background.

   This was working 100% flawlessly over the last year, but, is now broken in this new version on multiple Macs. Tried different browsers. Reset preferences, same issue.

   This was a bug that has come up multiple times over the years, and seemingly was solved for quite awhile, until now upon its return.

2. Screen Draws Bizarre Patterns

   This has been happening for the past several versions. Im using ID 2023 on a 27" 2019 31. Mhz iMac with 64GB. It runs a Raedon Pro 575X 4GB.

   While I am moving the document, sometimes these bizarre dark patterns form. Sometimes it happens when just an item is moved on the document. But it appears to be random. Scrolling off the page and back onto it seems to solve it.

   This only happens in InDesign. None of the other Adobe apps or other graphic apps have this issue. So it leads me to believe it is not the video card, but one specific program.

   I also own an M1 Mac Mini which runs the exact same software...but has no such issues. I keep hoping an update will fix this but it remains for the past two years...

5. problem of distorted previews even though their link is correct

   I am on indesign 18.1. Mac OS ventura 13.1.
   I have a problem displaying the images once I re-open my document. They appear stretched and refuse to export the pdf. The image links are correct and I have not moved the images from their original location. I have to manually update the links each time for the pdf to work. Can you help me?

6. 'Search for Missing Links in this Folder' not working

   InDesign is not finding other missing links in a folder. I have only Illustrator files stored I a folder titled 'Illustrator', which is a subfolder of another folder titled 'Content'. The Indesign file sits at the same level as this 'Content' folder.

   There are over 100 Illustrator files in the folder, some with single artboards and some with multiple, and some are placed in multiple locations in the InDesign file.

   InDesign as no problem finding other missing links in other folders (titled Photoshop, PDF) which sit at the same level as the Illustrator folder.

8. Relinking incorrect files

   Today's thing that is usefully broken on this terrible app is I can select a link from the links pallet, right click to relink it and Indesign will handily decide to relink a different linked file on the page forcing me to repeat the process. This is happening every now and again and not every time I relink files.

9. importing multiple illustrator artboards into empty frames no longer works

   With the 2021 version of indesign I could 'load' my cursor with an illustrator file and select 'all' artboards, then i could 'drop' each artboard into an empty indesign frame - this no longer works in the 2022 version (17.2). Instead it just drops the first image in and the loaded cursor 'cancels'.

11. Fixing images and text wrap

    Since a longer time there is a bug, that makes it impossible to let the text flow around beside an image, while this image is fixed with a anchor mark. The line, where the anchor mark is set doesn’t flow around. That makes an unhappy compronise necessary: Either you don’t set the anchor mark and the image doesn’t flow with the text or you set an manual word wrap.

    This should be fixed because in other programs it also works.

12. Roboto fonts not working in indesign

    I have tried everything to add Roboto fonts to creative cloud to be used in InDesign but nothing works. First, I click on the "f" in the upper right hand corner, and it just spins and spins saying loading. The next thing I tried was going to Adobe Fonts website and 'Activiating all Robot Fonts." Even though it shows as activated, Whenever I try to export my design it says following fonts (Roboto family) aren't currently available.

13. 2022 InDesign bugs

    when using ID 2021 and before, When I sized a graphic, say, from 100 to 50%, the info box would say the graphic is now 50%. In ID 2022, when I reduce a graphic, the box says it is 100%. I am not liking this.

14. Layer visibility toggle should indicate mixed visibility status of sub layers

    InDesign V 16.4, Current Creative Cloud as of 2021-11-14.
    Currently - The top Layer visibility icon (within the layers palette) does not indicate a mixed visibility status of sub layers.
    I have a rather complex layer set in a document I'm working on where I have master pages with master pages based on other master pages and linked objects within the document.
    I just spent over an hour trying to locate a hidden object. I incorrectly assumed that, when looking at the layers palette, with all the layer stacks closed (layer list contracted where only the top level was shown) that the visibility icon would indicate there was mixed visibility of all layers within that stack or they would all be visible or all would be off.
    When a layer is visible you have an eye icon showing. If the layer is not visible there is nothing. If the layer has sub layers where some are visible and some are hidden each level above and within the same layer stack should have an icon like an eye with a cross out or an X, Therefore when the layer stack is closed you know some of it's sub layers may be visible and some maybe hidden. When the top layer visibility is toggled there are indications for the lower levels as to there independent status and that is great but it should work in reverse as well.
    This concept should also be carried out on the locking toggle as well.

15. [INDD 2020 and 2021] Document fonts folder does not work with fonts for placed SVGs

    Provide a font file with the Document fonts folder for a placed SVG graphic where the font is not embedded.
    RESULT: InDesign will not use the font for rendering text with the placed SVG graphic.

    ALSO: Even if the font is installed for ALL USERS in the system on Windows 10 InDesign will not package the font that is needed with the placed SVG graphic.

    One cannot be sure what fonts are needed with placed SVG graphics. When InDesign documents are saved, closed and re-opened, Preflight and Type > Find Fonts… will not show them.

    The only check you can do:
    Export the document to IDML. Open the IDML file as document.
    Then Preflight will show a needed font inside a placed SVG graphic and Preflight could flag it if it is missing.

    Well: The missing font installed in the Documents fonts folder could even block InDesign to access the same font that is installed for all users with:
    C:\WINDOWS\Fonts\

    To solve the issue you have to do THREE things:
    [1] Move the needed font for the placed SVG file out of the Document fonts folder
    [2] Install the font for ALL USERS
    [3] Quit and restart InDesign, only then open the document again. Otherwise you get a situation where the font could show as missing if it used in a text frame elsewhere in the document like [Lemon], but is rendered correctly in a text frame. And still rendered substituted with Arial in the placed SVG graphic. See screenshot: "NoAccessToFont-EvenWhenInstalledFor-AllUsers.JPG" in my test files one can download from my Dropbox account:

    SVG-from-AI-Placed-16.4.0.51-DocumentFontsFolder.zip

    https://www.dropbox.com/s/jjsjrsf2n5k81v0/SVG-from-AI-Placed-16.4.0.51-DocumentFontsFolder.zip?dl=1

19. Weird Bug with Resize to Frame

    Resize frame to content messes up and I'm not sure if it's something to do with a setting I have set since this doesn't always happen.

    Basically, I'll have a frame around some content with text in it.

    When I hit "resize frame to content" ctrl-alt-c, it resizes the frame to the full document width, which looks like the example.

    I obviously expect the frame to resize to the content, not to be super wide like the entire document.

20. Linked PDF images not exporting to PDF correctly

    InDesign (16.2.1), Windows 10

    Logos saved as PDFs and placed in an InDesign file appear with a gray vertical line on the right side of the image frame when the file is converted to PDF. There is no stroke or fill on the image frame; further, I checked a PDF with the same PDF logo in it that I created a month ago and it did not have the line. The line appears when the PDF is printed.

    We found that reverting back to v16.1 resolved the issue. Also, relinking a JPG or TIF of the logo worked in 16.2.1, but obviously less efficient.
