I can't create my Composite Font and all of my C.F are missing
Latest Version, Korean ver.
Text > Composite Font > New > (making composite font) > save > ok > loading > pop up that i don't have access rights
And When i open my works that i made with my personal composite font, pop up that indesign fail to make composite font (my composite font's name).
I made a composite font and used it well, but when I turned on my computer and turned on InDesign, all the composite fonts were gone.
Therefore, I tried to recreate the composite font, but the above window popped up and I couldn't use…1 vote -
Text Variables Do Not Work with Auto-Size Text Boxes
When I create a text box that has auto-size (width only) enabled and then insert a text variable (e.g. "modification date"), the entire text variable is collapsed into the width of a single character. It is as if the dynamic width of the text variable causes a bug in the calculation of auto-size, such that the width cannot be determined, and so it all collapses into the width of a single character instead, with all of the characters rendered one on top of the other.
Very disappointing bug, because dynamic text variables and auto-size are a natural fit for one…

Incorrect ligatures in InDesign 2024
In Indesign 19.0.1, ligatures are replaced incorrectly in German. Comparing these with the same document in 18.5.1, where they appear correct, this appears to be a bug in the new version. One screenshot is from INDD 2023 and the other from INDD 2024.

Select multiple cells in a table that are not next to each other.
Good morning,
When we creating a table in Indesign, it is impossible to select several cells at the same time, if they are not side by side.
There is no shortcut yet that allows you to do this.
This would save a lot of time, being able to change the background color, or font, of several selected cells.
For the moment, we have to take the cells one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one... Not really fast...!Thanks in advance for future updates! :-)

Autosize height does not work on threaded text frames
Autosize does not work on threaded text frames. Why not? You have a frame break that tells you where the box ends. Can you fix this?

Right-to-left paragraph orientation causes problems
Hello and thanks in advance to the respondents.
For several months now I have been suffering from a very annoying problem in InDesign and I have not been able to find a solution.
When I set the writing direction from right to left (using the edit menu - right to left), the arrow keys on the right and left keyboard stop responding as they should, and instead of each click the cursor moves one character to the right or left, clicking on them jumps the cursor to the beginning or end of the line.
The problem only exists when I…1 vote -

Incorrect diacritic position for some letters when using bullets
When using the latest version of Noto Sans Arabic (2.012), if bullets/numbering is enabled in InDesign for a line containing a word with a medial position jeem ج, the dot of the jeem gets out of place. If bullets/numbering are not used, then all is well. I submitted this as a bug on GitHub for the Noto Sans team, but they say it is an issue with InDesign and the layout engine. You can also see other issues on the GitHub issue at https://github.com/notofonts/arabic/issues/232.
To reproduce:
Create a text frame using the "ME Type Tool" in InDesign (for a…

Corner Options remove the Inset Spacing on a Text Box
When you create a text box with an inset spacing, if you apply a corner option, the insert spacing is removed.
To fix it, all you got to do is go to the Text Frame Options and add the inset spacing again, but it would be great if it didn't get removed in the first place.

fontproblem – strange ligatures – invisible font
Hi there
In InDesign CC23 we have the problem that we sometimes have some issues with ligatures. We have the font Minion Pro activates in the Library. and somehow have the problem, that the ligatures appear to be a completely different character, see the screenshot.
the problem could be resolved by deleting the Minion Font from the application folder > Ressources > Required > Fonts. the Ligatures changed back to the correct character. Or i deactivate the minion regular in the finder. But i need the font for other apps as well, so i need to activate the regular font…4 votes -
InDesign 2024 regression: Text variable rendering breaks Google barcode font
A sequence of numbers rendered in Google's "Libre Barcode EAN13 Text" font will not work if the text is inserted via a text variable. Entering the text verbatim with the same paragraph style produces the expected result.
This is a regression in InDesign 2024. The attached IDML file works fine in InDesign 2023 v18.5 but not in InDesign 2024 v19.3.0.58.
The font can be found at https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Libre+Barcode+EAN13+Text.
(Sorry for the .idml.txt extension for the test case – this form won't let me submit .idml, .indd or .zip attachments directly.)

Typing over selected numbers doesn't work the first time in ID v 19.2
ID v 19.2 won't let my team type over a selected number the first time we try, we have to press the number on our keyboard a couple of times for it to update. In previous versions of ID we didn't have to press a number on our keyboard twice for it to type over a selection.

Weird replacement issue with small caps and breaks
When text is set in small caps, the German ß ligature gets replaced by ss. When that replacement then is at the end of a line and the word needs to break and wrap around, InDesign creates missing glyphs.
This is not an issue with the font and it is not a general issue, because Illustrator doesn't do it. It happens with true small caps and with fake ones.4 votes -

version 19.2 x64. The version update lost my language setting (English-Hebrew).
The English-Hebrew setting was lost during the last few updates, which removed the ability to create bullets with a hanging indent. A minus value in the first line indent always led to an error. It was solved by uninstalling and re-installing, which then gave me the text direction options again. So a workaround is possible, but it must be done every time I update.
