Mystery white hairlines showing up on edges of Published Online DocumentI am having an issue with documents published online and viewed in Google Chrome. For some reason there are thin white hairlines showing up on the edge of certain pages that are not in the actual InDesign document. On a couple of pages in my book, I have made the background color the same as the background color that shows up in the browser, but these hairlines are still showing the edge of the page. Screenshots of the white hairlines attached. 2 votes

Footnote numbering in InDesign does not heed settingI have a single indd-document containing a book with 300+ footnotes in it. I have set the footnote numbering to "Restart numbering at every --> Section" (i.e. Chapter). But when I export the document to an EPUB file, InDesign does not heed this setting but keep running the numbering up to "348". I suspect this is a bug in inDesign 2020 (15.0.1), as there seem to be no good reason for this behavior. 2 votes

Map styles to tags forces image alignment to the leftConsider: an image frame is set inline with paragraph text in a text frame. The image is wider than the width of the text frame, and RIGHT ALIGNED, so that it extends out towards the left of the text frame. When you map styles to tags, the image frame is forced to look left-aligned so that the tag is housed in the text frame. This makes the image now extend TO THE RIGHT of the text frame. PLEASE FIX!!! 2 votes

Folio overlaysAbode indesign CC 2017 - 08/30 - Windows 
 My colleague and I are trying to make a folder with Publish online, and sometimes we need 'Folio Overlays' tool - but it doesn't work. For me it's too big to see on the screen, makes everything slow - and for her, it doesn't work at all, it doesn't show anything at all.2 votes

publish onlineLast night I received an update to version 21.0 of Indesign 2026. Since then, Publish Online has a glitch where it shows certain file types (pngs, jpgs) as gray boxes, even when they are displaying correctly in InDesign. Illustrator, eps, and pdf files seem to work fine. I also notice that previously published documents seem to be fine still. Do I really need to go save all my images as these other file types and replace them, or is a fix coming soon for this? 1 vote

Publish Document Online Not WorkingI keep getting an error #14 when uploading a new link or updating an existing link using the Publish Online function on InDesign. This is happening more and more over the year and is super frustrating for those who depend on this feature for work. Some of these documents are vital for design professionals and this feature seriously needs more love. 1 vote

"Reverse on Roll Off" doesn't workThe feature "Reverse on Roll Off" does not appear to work. I have a simple button set up with an On Roll Over event to Play an Animation. The button works as intended. 
 However, I have the "Reverse on Roll Off" checkbox ticked, presuming it would automatically apply a "Reverse" command to the Animation when the mouse cursor Rolls Off the button.It does not. Due to the nature of my button and animation design, setting up separate "On Roll Over" and "On Roll Off" Events on the same button is not an option, because the various combinations of the… 1 vote

links not clickable on publish online linkWhen I publish my document online, Hyperlinks are not clickable. When the document is viewed as a PDF, links ARE clickable. All text is ungrouped and on the top layer. All hyperlinks are properly embedded (again, they work in the PDF and this is purely an issue with the Publish Online link).
