cc library
Hi!
[Indesign 16.0.2, macbook with Catalina]
The CC Library freezes and i can't click any colors or elements. It is not possible to scroll in the library or change library. The issue sometimes is resolved when I restart the program but often not. I had this issue with an earlier version of Indesign too.6 votes -
cc libraries
In 2021 update, the cc libraries freeze and are unavailable. I tried to delete something from my library 3 times, and nothing happened. Then I closed the window, and when I reopened it had deleted three things.
Anyone else having issues with libraries with the new update?I know the 2021 update is still really new, so if this is already being fixed I apologize.

Variable fonts broken with World Ready Paragraph Composer
Using the World-ready composer essentially breaks the glyph width interpolation of Variable Fonts. The outcome is that text set in a Variable Font will receive the Variable Font's default style's horizontal glyph widths for any axis location, resulting in unusable overlap or gaps.
Attached you find a sample Indesign file with comparison and a screenshot thereof. This happens with any Variable Font I have tested so var, but to complete the same test case as included, download https://github.com/adobe-fonts/source-sans-pro/releases/download/3.006R/source-sans-pro-3.006R.zip and install VAR/SourceSansVariable-Roman.otf as well as OTF/*.otf files.

Running head containing forced line break inserts space incorrectly
When a Running Head text variable is generated, under certain (common) conditions, a double-space is inserted where a forced linebreak is used.
To reproduce bug:
Insert a Running Head text variable into a master page running head position.
Specify the first instance of, say, Level-One paragraph style.
In a multi-page text flow, insert a Level-One styled paragraph with enough text to force a line wrap.
Within the Level-One paragraph, insert a Forced Line Break (FLB) character.
Scroll text back and forth to force update of the text variable display.
Result: On the page containing the Level-One paragraph, the running head…

InDesign steals focus in Windows 10
Whenever InDesign launches or performs a task such as PDF export, if the user switches to another application, InDesign will steal the focus back.
This annoyance has been around for quite some time as outlined in this thread: https://forums.adobe.com/thread/2001514

Variable Font (Source Sans 3) some Characters not available
macOS Ventura 13.5.2 (22G91), InDesign 19.0
Since the update to Indesign 2024 (or version 19.0), some letters can no longer be selected in bold or black for the variable version of the font "Source Sans 3". When adjusting the slider, they become thinner again (instead of thicker) from a weight of 600. It affects e.g. the small a, e and l, but not the i, s... etc. they are also not displayed in the glyphs. With font weights below 600 (up to and including semibold) everything works fine (variable and with font weights). This applies to both the TT-version (download)…5 votes -
Unrecognizable when Color Setting is set to Japanese name
OS : Windows 10/11
InDesign : 18.1/ 17.4/16.4.3 (probably all versions)If I save a color setting with a Japanese name, the next time I open the color setting, an error occurs and it is not recognized.
When I check the list, it is garbled and cannot be loaded.
The same problem does not occur when the same color settings are used in Illustrator.Since this problem occurs in a Japanese environment, the contents of the screenshots and attached file names are in Japanese.
Original Message :
カラー設定を日本語名で保存した場合、次にカラー設定を開いたときにエラーが発生して認識できません。
リストを確認すると文字化けしているため、読み込めない状態となっています。
同じカラー設定をIllustratorで利用した場合は同じ問題は発生しません。日本語環境で起きる問題であるため、スクリーンショットの内容や添付ファイル名は日本語です。

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.

MacOS Big Sur Creative Cloud Download Manager iCon not clearly visible in Apple Menu
MacOS Big Sur Creative Cloud Download Manager iCon is barely showing up at the top of my screen. Since the top control bar in Big Sur is now transparent, I am using a black background so its quite faint. Attaching screen shot. This wasn't an issue with previous OS and had the same black background.

qr
Hi,
We created a business card for our employee, that includes QR code generated within InDesign. When we tested it with Android it reads everything correctly, but when reading QR code with iPhone, it only reads first and last name and job title. We tested with several different Iphones and everywhere the same result. But when we've tested a similar business card from a colleague, it worked ok. Sending both business cards in the attachment. Daniel Fischer's business card is not working correctly on the iPhone.
We are using InDesign 15.1.1 x64

Update to the latest version not possible
After reinstalling Adobe Creative Cloud and Adobe InDesign CC 2018 (version 13.1) on a new Windows computer, it is not possible to update to the latest version 13.1.1.
Even with a new installation of Adobe InDesign, version 13.0, no update is offered.
All update installers should be available for all authorized versions * of the Creative Cloud.5 votes
