Suddenly unable to import RTF files?
Suddenly unable to import RTF files to INDD pages, possibly after most recent software update through ACC. Have been doing it the same way for years, and now it refuses to let me autoflow or even place the first column of what will be a multi-page layout.

Linked PDF images not exporting to PDF correctly
InDesign (16.2.1), Windows 10
Logos saved as PDFs and placed in an InDesign file appear with a gray vertical line on the right side of the image frame when the file is converted to PDF. There is no stroke or fill on the image frame; further, I checked a PDF with the same PDF logo in it that I created a month ago and it did not have the line. The line appears when the PDF is printed.
We found that reverting back to v16.1 resolved the issue. Also, relinking a JPG or TIF of the logo worked in 16.2.1,…

Comment pins move in spread with content
At the moment, pins on content in a story do not move with that text if the text ends up being pushed onto another page. This means we end up with seemingly random pins floating on the page.
Please allow pins to remain bound to their original location as text moves and flows into other pages.

Export PDF doesn't allow "Two-up (Cover Page)" view

"comp_core_log" folder is created
- Adobe InDesign 16.2.1.102
- When the component information dialog is displayed for the first time after launching InDesign.
- Just the component information dialog is displayed.
- An empty folder named "compcorelog" is created on the desktop.
This may not be a bug, but deleting an empty folder every time I check the document history is a bit annoying.

Make Crop Marks always outside the Bleed
People who don't understand bleed (and they are out there) leave the Marks Offset setting on default, which causes problems when they send their files out for printing.
There is absolutely no situation or circumstance in which it is a good idea to have the Crop Marks inside the Bleed. Not one. Not Ever.
So why do we have to adjust the Marks Offset when we change the Bleed ? Why is it not even offered as an option in the Preferences to set this automatically ?
It's not just when exporting a PDF, but also when Printing, from InDesign,…

InDesign freezes while working with "Scale Tool"
When using the "Scale Tool", every 4 or 5 times or so the app freezes at the dialog box and there's no way to exit. You have to force quit the app and hope that your work is autosaved. Unacceptable and only started happening recently.

When Find/Change Dialog Box is open, arrow keys move entire text box instead of cursor
- Indesign 16.3.2 on macOs Mojave
- When i find a word using find/change it gets highlighted. I try to add a punctuation mark after that word and tab the right arrow key.
- Arrow key should just move the cursor in text box, next to the highlighted text.
- It moves entire text box as if the text box is selected.

Applying a different swatch not always working (bug?)
It happens every now and then that changing the color of text by selecting the text with the text tool and clicking on the desired swatch does not change anyting. You can select the desired color, but the text color stays the same. It does not seem to be document related and is not always happening. If you use the color picker to select a random color from the document, the problem disappears. You can find more comments and examples on this issue in the Support Community: https://community.adobe.com/t5/indesign/can-t-change-colors-from-the-swatch-panel/m-p/11859690

tables jumping to next page
Sometimes tables that fit on one page jumps to the next page causing reflow. It does this randomly and can't figure out why. This has to be caused by bug in indesign. I really wish Adobe would focus more on fixing the many bugs in its programs rather than adding new features.
