1. Table of contents problem

   Hi.
   i am concerned about table of contents generation under indesign cc 2019 (14.0.1).
   When the titles to be placed in the table of contents are in a text box, everything happens normally. On the other hand, when the titles are in a table, the generation of the table of contents does not happen properly. See attached example.
   Thank you in advance for your answers.
   Christophe.

2. book sync object-format does not work as it should

   InDesign CC 2018 (13.1)
   MacOSX 10.12.6

   Hello

   We often use the InDesign book functionality for very large and complex documents. In these documents we use also a nested/grouped object for images containing a frame for image caption and a frame for the image. Where the caption frame does not have a contour, the frame for the image has a contour. For every frame we have created an appropriate named object format. As long we use this nested/grouped objects in a single document, the appropriate object formats work as espected. When we use a clone of this "master" document for further book document, the object-format work as expected. When we do a book synchronization with the sync option "object format" enabled, the image frames attributes for the contour is overwritten (the contour is disabled) in all following book documentes, but for the master document - the object format name gets a "+". Only if we disable the sync option for "object format", the object format is not overwritten (obviously), but with the loss of the possibility to propagate to all following book documents any realy wanted change to object formats in the master document. I can't see any justification for this behavior - by the way in the case some one forgets to disable the sync option for "object format" it can cause a real "mess" as after a sync all image frames have to be corrected manually (may be over hundreds of objects) as there is noway to search and replace/reapply an object format.

   With best regards, André

3. In-Design still doesn't support the Automated Numbers in "Devanagari Script" Indic Language Marathi & Hindi

   Hello Team, since i am using In-design for my work almost everyday, and a die hard fan for using Unicode fonts for Indian Language (JFYI I mostly work in Hindi + Marathi languages and Devanagari Script used by both these languages) and I use many fonts including that of Adobe and locally developed Unicode fonts

   the Major issue I am facing is In-Design still doesn't support the Automated Numbers in "Devanagari Script" they still appear in English / Roman Numerals, which is a very annoying thing to see page numbers & auto numbered lists Showing Numbers in English / Roman Numerals, (here i am choosing a font which does have numerals designed in Devanagari Script)

   Moreover, if I try to use the same Unicode font in CorelDRAW / QuarkXpress, it gives me proper & desired output i.e. to say, I get proper Devanagari Numerals for automated things like TOC & Index entries, so also the most crucial page numbers & numbered para lists

   Few months ago I have also put in a "uservoice" request hoping to resolve this issue, but its still pending,

   (Here is the link for https://indesign.uservoice.com/forums/601021-adobe-indesign-feature-requests/suggestions/40142305-using-unicode-indic-devnagri-script-font-for-autom )

   can you please help in here or throw some light, and

4. table of contents very buggy

   i think i know how to use indesign cc's table of contents feature, but it doesn't seem to work as advertised, or demonstrated in numerous videos. i cannot get the revisions to the toc paragraph styles to effect changes in the toc itself. despite the revised and selected paragraph style showing the new redefined settings, the toc only changes what is highlighted (not the rest of the elements in that style) and then reverts back to the original display on update. will be faster to just design it as a text block, which i don't think is the point. anyone?

5. Images Blurry when PDFing from Book

   I'm working with catalog documents in an .indb file and when PDFing from the book, without any other files open, all of the images come out looking like they are unlinked.

   Images are all high resolution and linked in their individual files
   I am using press quality/X1A presets with no compression set
   Preflight shows no errors

   The only way to get clear images is to have every single INDD from the book open and THEN make the PDF, which, to me, defeats the purpose of the book functionality.

   I don't remember this being an issue in earlier versions but i hadn't used the book function since college so it's very possible it's always been this way and I've forgotten in the ten years that have transpired.

6. Crash: book-panel shows unopened file as opened, when saving Indesign crashes

   I noticed an issue with the book panel.
   For some reason sometimes it shows the icon for "file is open" on some files even though they're not opened in Indesign.

   When I open and want to save them, Indesign want me to define a filelocation again. It seems that Indesign lost the connection to the original file then.

   When saving the file (I usually overwrite the existing one) Indesign crashes.

   See attached screenshot for the "opened file"-icon in the book panel.

9. Table of contents and variables weird behaviour

   When some of my titles have Variables in the TOC (variables that I have created) they appear in the TOC incorrectly. My Variable here is a dash date i.e. 2019-2020. At first I used "–" rather than "-" but both ended up with the same result. I've uploaded all screenshots to demonstrate what I'm talking about: The variable with the longer dash, the variable in the heading and the TOC that relates to it. Notice that some TOC's are affected, but not others, so I'm at a loss.

10. Figure numbering skips one number in caption in multi-chapter book

    I have created a multi-chapter book. All the page numbers are correct from chapter to chapter. The Index of Figures is correct and sequential.

    Chapter 3 contains figures 1 and 2.
    Chapter 4 assigns 'figure 4' to the first figure, skipping figure 3.

    As I said, my Index of figures is correct and lists 'figure 3' with the caption that in the body of the text is assigned to figure 4.

    I have tried changing the caption paragraph style bullets and numbering to 'start at' to 3, but then all of the figures in chapter 4 are labeled 'figure 3.'

    Please help me, I am desperate.

    Thank you in advance.

11. automatic page numbering broken

    Indesign 2025 update has broken automatic page numbering?

    When I open one of my indb's the chapters page panels have the folios correct BUT the actual page section start at 1.

    I am having to use "start page numbering". This is yet another task introduced by a feature broken on an InDesign update!

12. book fails to synchronize after chapter-file edit

    Win10/64-Pro, InDesign 16.0.1/64

    A book with 53 chapters fails to detect edited chapters when re-synching.

    This problem did not occur with other recent updates of InDesign. Normally, when a chapter-file has been edited, a yellow bullet appears next to the filename in the Book chapter list. This isn't happening, because the files are not being detected as edited. Perhaps the book feature's metadata was corrupted by the update from 16.0.0 to 16.0.1?

    When I rebuild the book, even after full re-synch and renumber operations, chapters whose files have just been edited are not updated.

    The only way I can get an up-to-date PDF output is to manually remove all the edited chapter-files and then re-add them to the book's chapter list.

    Needless to say, this is a huge inconvenience. It has also caused several problems by generating "new" PDFs that were not actually updated!

20. book file don't work

    Hi,

    unfortunately it looks like the book file isn't work anymore with InDesign CC 2018.1 in Windows 10.

    On my Mac it is working! I have attached two hardcopies (the one with correct page numbers is from Mac, the other from Windows 10 pro).

    Obviously I tried to create a new book file and added files manually – same result.

    As a result all cross-references between documents are wrong.

    Any ideas?
