1. Layout options for multiple records from data merge

   I have recently discovered Data Merge and it works great for most things. However I need to output multiple records per page set out head-to-head. This is so the output can be printed and folder in half with the text on both side the right way up. More detailed controls would be big help.
   Unless I have missed something.

2. overprint is unpredictable in INDD and AI

   In the latest versions of INDD (17.2.1) and AI (26.2.1) i find that the overprint settings have become unpredictable. I have just received feedback from a client, that the date on a flyer i designed for him is illegible. In the attached print-file the date actually is overprinting. In INDD though the element is not set to overprinting. I have had the same issue with another document this week in AI.

3. Stripped down workspace when opening document

   1. Using 17.1 x64 on a Windows 10 machine
   2. When InDesign is closed, if I double click on a file to open it, the program opens with a minimal workspace; no panels, no toolbar at the top of the screen, nothing. If I open the program first, and then open a file (either through the file menu, or by doubleclicking on the icon in File Explorer, the program opens with my correct workspace.
   3. Opening the program, no matter how I access it, should open with my selected workspace.
   4. It opens without any panels, toolbars or the option to change to a different workspace.
   5. I have provided a screen shot of the screen after opening a file by double-clicking, and another one with my normal workspace after opening a different file using the file menu.

4. Hyperlink panel "go to destination" not linking to html with # to a specific id="anchor-1"

   ID version 17.0

   Hyperlink is to a url containing a # to anchor-1 in an html document. (Fig. 1)

   When clicking the go to destination it should open to that particular id location in the html.

   In the browser the # becomes %23 and the html document does not open, in fact it opens a pdf with a similar url. (Fig. 3)

   Fortunately when creating a pdf the link does work correctly in the browser.

   In v 14.0.1 it would open to the correct place in the html.

5. Fonts defined in existing Paragraph / Character Styles Missing after Creative Cloud font type change

   VERSION: InDesign 2022 V 17.0.1

   We activated the Museo Sans Rounded font via Creative Cloud and have used it in our documents since 2015. Until recently, the font activated by CC had a font type of OpenType Type 1. This font is still available on CC, but its font type appears to have changed to OpenType True Type.

   Documents that used the OpenType Type 1 font in a Paragraph or Character style now show this font as missing. The missing font name now displays as Museo Sans Rounded (OTF) in Find / Replace fonts and Paragraph and Character Styles panels. The font type under Find / Replace fonts is OpenType Type 1.

   Documents that used the same OpenType Type 1 font without declaring it in a Paragraph or Character style synchronize successfully with the OpenType True Type font on CC and do not show up as missing. The font name displays as Museo Sans Rounded throughout the document. The font type under Find / Replace fonts is OpenType True Type.

   A CC library asset that used the OpenType Type 1 font can be dropped into a new blank document without producing any missing font errors. Paragraph and Character styles associated with the library asset display a font name of Museo Sans Rounded. The font type under Find / Replace is OpenType True Type.

   The same library asset shows the font as missing if dropped into a file with existing Paragraph or Character styles used by the asset. The font name displays as Museo Sans Rounded (OTF) in Find / Replace fonts and Paragraph and Character Styles panels. The font type under Find / Replace fonts is OpenType Type 1.

7. Control Panel missing fields for Type

   Updated to InDesign 17.2 and noticed that some of the fields to the right in the Control Panel are missing for type. Using 27-inch monitor in full screen mode. If take out of full screen mode and move my window way over to the left off screen, and pull the Control panel out, then I see the fields. They used to fit.

8. Major System Font Issue!

   WHAT THE FONT!?!

   Our publishing company recently ran the InDesign update (to 15.0.2) and have discovered some major font issues. I have narrowed it down to InDesign 15.0.2, macOS Catalina 10.15.3, and Suitcase Fusion 21.0.0. I actually don't think Suitcase has too much to do with this, because the problem occurred after the InDesign update, but it's our font management software so I'm including it. Basically it appears system fonts have become problematic with InDesign. Packaged files are suddenly showing up with lots of the dreaded pink. I have tested about everything I can. I even created some very simple type only files that are having system font issues as well. Sometimes the document will open ok and the fonts will appear fine. Then when I go to export, the system fonts turn pink. Sometimes the file can't open the fonts at all and they start out and remain highlighted pink. Other times it will open but them shut off a few seconds later. It's only happening with system fonts. I have included screen shots for reference. I hope this issue can be fixed asap because it's font chaos over here! Thank you.

13. spelling

    Hi, I just want you to reach out for me to the Developer team and Interface Design team of InDesign. Please tell them, that the spelling function on InDesign should undergo major improvements. It literally sucks. I've been using InDesign since 2007, and the web application, basically any, like Google, deepL, Grammarl, I think even OpenOffice... are much better. So in this matter, InDesign was never the first choice, more like the last.
    -The first major problem it is very counter-intuitive to turn it on and make it work.
    -the second, which describes the bug, I have changed my Spelling to German2006 multiple times and it continues in to correct spelling to French even though the whole interface is in English and was supposed to be English before.

    I am reaching out because I feel you need push to rethink the spelling on InDesign a bit. If I really want to make sure that my text has no spelling issues I go on google, deepL or Grammarly, etc.
    I got used to working with an open browser application as mentioned, but It would be certainly helpful for the future if InDesign was more reliable in this point. Also, it would break down the working steps needed for a better workflow.

14. Bug: overwriting embedded objects with not embedded ones keeps them imbedded

    Indesign CC 2022, v17.
    Steps to reproduce :
    1. open two documents which have the same linked file (image) embedded
    2. edit the image outside of ID.
    3. relink the file in one of two documents, so it becomes unembedded
    4. copy the unembedded file to the other document, overwriting the same, but still embedded object/image.

    Exprect result: the object in the target document should not be embedded anymore and it should be up-to-date.

    What happens: depending on how the files is placed (inside a table cell or not) ID will only mark it as "it has been changed" by the yellow triangle or overwrite, but keep it embedded. If it shows the yellow triangle and since it's considered as embedded by ID, it cannot be updated (update button locked), which keeps the yellow triangle showing and overlaying the symbol for embedded objects so you don't know whether it's still embedded or not, until you right-click and find the "Unembed file" option.

    Note: this doesn't happen in 14.0.3.

17. Latest Indesign Slowdown on M1 Chip

    I am on the Macbook M1 Air with 16.2 and still experiencing random slowdowns when editing text, moving images, all the basic functions of InDesign.

    I have removed all Adobe CC apps, removed all plugins, used a cleaner. I am now running the latest clean Silicon version of InDesign and experiencing the same issues.

    I turned off GPU enhancements as folks recommended, which helped, but it still shows the beachball from time to time whenever I try a simple task.

18. windows long paths not supported

    InDesign fails to open or place files with long paths in Windows. The "Long Paths Enabled" registry setting is enabled (i.e. it is set to 1). The problem affects several functions:

    1. From Bridge, Place > In Indesign causes "Script Alert: Error: Expected a reference to an existing File/Folder"

    2. DataMerge in InDesign: images with long paths are skipped, i.e. aren't merged. There is no error message.

    3. From InDesign. I cannot manually place a file with a long path through the “Place” dialog box. The dialog box will display the folder and thumbnails, but when I click the image to place it, I get the following error: “The file could not be opened. You may not have permission or the file may be in use by another application.”

    All of these symptoms suggests that InDesign does not support Long Paths in Windows.

19. popups

    ISSUE: More than once, when I open InDesign, or access it for the first time that day, it'll come up with a popup spread across my workspace, inviting my feedback about something or alerting me to something. AND it will NOT go away.

    Previous time it was alerting me to the coming end of support for Type 1 fonts. Today (03/03/22) it's asking me to share feedback on Copy Editor (Beta) (screenshot attached).

    At this moment I need to work on my document, and I am not using Copy Editor, nor have I. But the popup can't be Escaped out of, or dragged away from the CENTER of my screen.

    PLEASE find a better way to alert us or request input. This is interruptive and counter-productive, and causes me NOT to want to offer any kind of feedback except this cranky note.

    ADDITIONALLY, why is there a SEPARATE login to leave feedback for InDesign, from everything else Adobe? Why do I need a new "account" for InDesign, when I already have an Adobe account?

    Thanks for considering these issues, and I'd appreciate your quick action, esp. for the popups that WON'T pop DOWN!

    Best,
