My company's graphics department develops scientific posters, and as a writer, I often have to make small adjustments to the text and am only given access to edit through InCopy (using version 14.0.2). This problem does not happen with every poster, but I often find that the whole frame of the poster is shifted when I open the assignments file in InCopy (please see example photos). I'm able to make my edits, but I can't export to a PDF without having the bleed, header, etc. shifted as I see it in InCopy. Our graphics department thinks this is a bug in my software. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling with no success. Any help please???

Here's an idea. It would be cool if the attributes of whatever you currently have selected, be it text or an object, could be quickly added to the Find/Replace dialog as your "search" terms. That way you don't have to go through and find all the attributes you want to search for, you could just select something that already has those attributes applied and then search. For instance, if you selected text that was bold italic, red, and 12 pt of a certain font and paragraph style, then those attributes could be loaded in the search box instead of having to input each of those to find all text that has those same attributes.

when working with factsheets it occurs that there are fields of text that need to be merged. Whenever there is a special character the function doesn't work. This is very very very annoying. It is quite common to use % in text, or brackets (like this)

Also it should be possible to have a blank cell in the excel merge file. E.g. for 45 lines there is info, but for 1 there isn't. This should be able to be left blank and not obliged to fill in a 0 that you manually need to delete later on.

Merging happens for more than letters and product numbers...........

Ich arbeite an einem Buch mit vielen Abschnitten, einzelne davon wurden in CS6 bearbeitet und dann brauchte ich CC für die weitere Arbeit. Da in den Voreinstellungen für CC das Wörterbuch "Duden" und "Duden tolerant" empfohlen wird, stellte ich dies entsprechend ein. Unter CS6 war nur "Hunspell" oder "Proximity" möglich. Ich wollte aber weiter dasselbe "Benutzerwörterbuch" verwenden, da ich viele Fachwörter und Eigennamen etc. verwende, die nicht im Duden sind. Nach diesem Wechsel stürzte InDesign CC beim Öffnen von CS6 Dokumenten ab. Ich versuchte es mit System- und NVRAM-Resets. Ohne Erfolg. Es funktionierte nur, indem ich vor jedem Öffnen von InDesign die .idlk-Dateien löschte, und erst ein neues CC- vor einem CS6-Dokument öffne. Nach vielen weiteren, zeitraubenden Versuchen gelang eine "absturzfreie" Arbeit über 20 Abschnitte eines Buches. Man konnte oft geänderte Dokumente (alle mit gleichen Voreinstellungen Wörterbuch) öffnen, aber es folgte nach einiger Arbeit, wie beim Einsetzten oder Überarbeiten von Text, wiederum Abstürze, die nur mit Neustart des iMac und Löschen von .idlk-Dateien zu beheben waren. Zeitraubend, ärgerlich und wenig "user friendly"!!

Here’s the issue: in the process of exporting XML using XSL, extended characters (like fancy quotes and em-dashes) are being replaced incorrectly. Basically, while replacing the character with it's corresponding HTML entity, the character plus two more characters get replaced.

The problem is caused by a difference between the way Adobe is handling XSL in older versions 2014 vs. 2018 or newer. Attached you will find an example export of the 2014 export and the 2018 export using the exact same XSL. Notice that in the 2018 TWO characters after every special character are getting replaced. I have also attached the XSL we use to transform the file

I posted a bug report on this a while back but I can't find it now.

This feature still isn't functioning for us.

InDesign only remembers the format of the last file exported.

So I just exported an InDesign file as a JPEG, and then when I returned to a file I worked on an hour ago, that I last exported as a PDF, the 'remembered' last export format is JPEG.

So NOTHING is being remembered across individual files at all.

This would be a great feature if we could get it working, but it simply doesn't work. Deleting preferences and Saved data files got it working briefly, but it reverts to not working within minutes.

We're up-to-date with InDesign and running our Macs on Sierra 10.12.6
