1. [ID-4257732]CMYK color specified in MathML does not match the set value

   InDesign 20.0 (2025)
   Windows /macOS

   When I apply a preset or a newly created CMYK swatch to MathML, the color does not match the value.
   It appears to be CMYK via RGB color.

   Original text (Japanese):
   MathMLに対し、プリセットや新規作成したCMYKスウォッチを適用しても、その数値どおりのカラーになりません。
   RGBカラーを経由してCMYKになっているように見えます。

   Thank you for trying out the MathML feature in InDesign! The math objects created using this feature are placed as SVGs, and hence they exclusively support RGB colours.If you try to apply a non RGB colour (CMYK/LAB/HSV-based), then by design it is converted to RGB before it is applied to the math object. This conversion is designed to enable users to continue using document colours that are not RGB-based for the math object SVGs.

2. [ID-4216065]Hyperlinks copy/pasted between files *appear* to break after source document is removed.

   Using CC2019 on a Mac running High Sierra

   Steps to reproduce:
   1) Create a document with a few hyperlinks in it.
   2) Whilst this document is open, open a 2nd document, and copy/paste the links from one document to the other.
   3) Save both and close.
   4) Trash source document

   Expected result: hyper links should work in Target document as expected.

   Actual result: hyperlinks all appear broken in document. Whilst an exported PDF appears to still work, ID reports all those links as broken.

   Other details:
   If you retrieve the source document from the trash, it the links in the target document suddenly start working again, meaning your not actually pasting the hyperlink, but theres some sort of link that exists between the source and target document.

   Saving target file as a new file, saving as idml, has no effect – those links are still tied to the source document.

   This in an absolute tragedy if you are working on large documents with lots of links, and needs fixing ASAP

   Thanks for reporting the issue. As confirmed from you all, the crash issue is not happening with latest InDesign build. The only remaining issue is that of Grep not working when a period is followed by an endnote marker

   We will look into the issue shortly.

4. My InDesign CC window will not minimise into the dock?

   Hi,

   Not sure where to go with this one but I have just upgraded to Adobe CC and noticed that I'm unable to 'Minimise' the window in InDesign and also noticed that it won't do it in Illustrator but Photoshop does minimise (ODD!)

   All it will do is when you double click it fills to fit screen and then the opposite.

   I have posted this onto the forum and others have mentioned that they are also experiencing this problem.

   (I have turned on the 'Double -click a windows title bar to minimize' in the System Preferences)

   Please could you help me out?

   Spec: InDesign CC 13.0.1
   MacBook Pro, macOS Sierra 10.12.2

   Cheers

5. Mouse very slow during mail merge

   When exporting to a PDF using Indesign Mail Merge, the mouse is very slow, even if in other programs. That makes the computer unusable during export of large PDF's.

   I found that only when the Windows Task Manager is on the front, the mouse acts normal again, but when I the Task Manager loses focus, the mouse is slow again.

   We have this problem on our Windows PC's. On my Mac it works fine.

   We use the latest Indesign (15.0.1)

6. arabic harakats moving

   Hi!

   There is interesting bug with arabic letters. When we have aleef-lyam-aleef with harakats + footnote references with more than one symbol (from 1 to 9, no problem, 10+ or (1), problems starts) on the line, harakats swap together. Have tried with multiple fonts, most of them (adobe font too) got this error.

   Tested this in 2014 and 2018 ME versions of Indesign.

   Hope you can easily fix it, cause it's a real problem for book publishing.
   Thank you!

7. Hunspell dictionaries cannot be added in Sierra or High Sierra

   Adding Hunspell dictionaries breaks code-signing, and results in the whole of InDesign's spelling system being sand-boxed by OSX.

   Steps to reproduce:

   1. On High Sierra and InDesign CC, add a Hunspell dictionary, as detailed here: https://helpx.adobe.com/indesign/kb/add_cs_dictionaries.html

   2. Spell-check any InDesign document using the new dictionary and spell-checking then becomes unusable, until InDesign is uninstalled then re-installed.

   The following types of errors are produced in the console, showing that it's a code-signing issue, caused by dictionaries being installed within the Hunspell plugin bundle.

   Can I suggest that there should be another place to install additional languages, outside the InDesign application.

   The only way I can work with Latin and Ancient Greek languages currently is to use an El Capitan Mac, which does not have the sandboxing.

   AMFI: Check-fix enabled for binary '/Applications/Adobe InDesign CC 2018/Resources/Dictionaries/LILO/Linguistics/Providers/Plugins2/AdobeHunspellPlugin.bundl e/Contents/MacOS/AdobeHunspellPlugin' with TeamID 'JQ525L2MZD', identifier 'com.adobe.adobehunspellplugin2': broken signature treated as unsigned without privileges. This workaround will not work for software built on or after 10.12.

8. Text wraps when replacing a swatch

   If I replace a swatch the text wraps at one place. It happens just with one color in the document... I doesn't matter which swatch I use for replacing... I never seen this before. I image how risky that is when you're replacing a swatch in a large project like a catalog and than somewhere in the document text is wraping...

9. Anchored frame looses the XML tag information as soon as anchor is released/anchor point is moved forward.

   Steps to reproduce

   1. Create an anchored text/graphic frame with some inline text/image. Tag the frame with some XML Tag (say 'tag1').

   2. Now release the anchor.

   Expected output
   - On releasing the anchor, there should be no changes in the XML tag on frame.

   Actual output
   - On releasing the anchor, the frame gets untagged.

   Additional note: Similar thing happens when anchor is moved forward to another position in inline text. In this case also, frames gets untagged

10. 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.

    Link to Indesign file: https://www.dropbox.com/s/h8fpld7ks7k8rb4/bug-report-variable-font-world-ready-composer.indd?dl=0

12. Data Merge ignores files when a header field is called 'table'

    If Data Merge tries to select a data source where one of its header fields is called 'table' (all lowercase), it fails to import (InDesign v 13.0.1). It doesn't seem to matter which column it's in, but changing it to anything else (e.g. 'Table' with uppercase 'T') seems to fix it.

    Tried it on 2 machines, same result. Adobe Customer Care on Twitter confirmed they could replicate it and suggested I post it here.

    Short video attached illustrating the issue.

14. Anchored Object Lock/Prevent Manual Position Override

    The Prevent Manual Positioning creates a Locked Object, but unlocking the widget doesn't remove the Prevent manual override.

    When you check to "Prevent Manual Override" an anchored object receives a lock adornment. An object Style can be created from this object. If that lock is unlocked the Object style shows as override, but the "Prevent Manual Override" is still checked.

    If the object style is redefined. The lock adornment is still unlocked, and the "Prevent Manual Positioning" is still checked. Reapplying the style locks the object.

    There should be more consistent behaviour of "Prevent Manual Positioning" and the "Lock". Even though they are similar they are not the same. If checking "Prevent Manual Positioning" activates the Lock. Unlocking should also uncheck "Prevent Manual Positioning".
