1. CC library freezes during work and crashes Indesign 16.2.1 if buying Stock-Pictures

   MAC OS Catalina 10.15.7 (19H1217)
   iMac Pro (2017)
   3.2 GHz 8-Core Intel Xeon W
   32 GB 2666 MHz DDR4
   Radeon Pro Vega 56 8 GB
   Indesign 16.2.1

   CC Library freezes and only a program restart helps temporarily ... until next time

   This bug existed before in Indesign and Illustrator was fixed in the meantime and was now apparently reissued! I love traditions!

   A bug evergreen CC Libraray
   If buying AdobeStock-Pictures via CC Library-Window in Indesign
   will shut down Indesign directly in 9 of 10 cases
   (This is a "Bugevergreen!")

2. 3 Bugs one Update > Edge smoothing doesnt work correctly > Effects previews and use doesent work correctly and shredderesd text >

   After the last update, the following things no longer work properly:
   1. CC Libraries
   (Crashes and shows either a reduced or enlarged section of the library and is no longer usable. Only a program restart helps ... short term! see screenshot 1. the bug was already in Illustrator!)

   1. edge smoothing! (Not only since the update): ... Does not work properly for quite some time! 2.1 Completely covered areas, lines and graphics have a slight contour due to the edge smoothing and become minimally visible (although these would actually be invisible and not visible in print) or form minimally soft edges, or corners where there are none! (see screenshot 2) 2.2 Frames with effects and in which images are loaded whose outer edges are 100 percent transparent, form fine gray outer lines on the outer edges where there are none!
   2. effect & effect preview: no longer works properly with texts and shreds them after scaling or makes them invisible! A problem which I never had before and what worked wonderfully before the update. (S. Scrrenshot 3)

   In addition, as an addition bugs in Íllustrator with 3D extrusions and invited images on it! Bugs with Adobe RAW: Zoom Scollrad works no longer or only stuttery!

   Dear Adobe team, what is going on? The whole thing costs a lot of time, a lot of money and nerves ... infinite nerves!!!!!!!!! It's starting to remind me of QuarkXpress!

   german:
   Nach dem letztem Update, funktionieren folgende Dinge nicht mehr Ordnungsgemäß:
   1. CC Libraries
   (Stürzt ab und zeigt entweder einen verkleinerten oder vergrößerten Ausschnitt der Libary und ist nicht merh nutzbar. Nur ein Programmneustart hilft … kurzfristig! s. Screenshot 1. Den Bug gab es schon mal in Illustrator!)

   1. Kantenglättung! (Nicht erst seit dem Update): …
      Funktioniert seit geraumer Zeit nicht mehr ordnungsgemäß!
      2.1. Vollständig abgedeckte Flächen, Linien und Grafiken haben durch die Kantenglättung auf einmal ein leichte Kontur und werden minimal sichtbar (Obwohl diese eigentlich unsichtbar und im Druck nicht sichtbar wären) oder bilden minimal weiche Kanten, oder Ecken wo keine sind! (S. Screenshot 2)
      2.2 Rahmen mit die mit Effekten versehen sind und in denen Bilder eingeladen werden deren Ausskanten zu 100 Prozent transparent sind, bilden an den Aussenkanten feine graue aussenlinien, wo keine sind!

   2. Effekt & effektvoschau:
      funktioniert nicht mehr richtig bei Texten und zerschreddert diese nach Skallierung oder macht diese unsichtbar! Ein Problem welches ich bislang nie hatte und was vor dem Update wunderbar funktionierte. (S. Scrrenshot 3)

   Dazu als Beigabe Bugs bei Íllustrator mit 3D-Extrusionen und eingeladen Bildern darauf! Bugs bei Adobe RAW: Zoom Scollrad funktinóniert nicht mehr oder nur stotterhaft!

   Liebes Adobe-Team, was ist los? Das ganze kostet viel Zeit, viel Geld und Nerven .. unendlich viel Nerven!!!!!!!!! Es erinnert mich allmählich an QuarkXpress!

4. Indesign crashes when there is a footnote conflict (imported document)

   Beim Importieren eines Word-Dokumentes mit einer Fussnote die über eine Seite lang ist kommt es zu einem fehlerhaften Import wenn die Einstellung des Indesigndokumentes auf "Fussnoten nicht teilen" steht.
   Ab der langen Fussnote wird kein importierter Text mehr dargestellt, jedoch trotz genügen Leerseiten ein Übersatz angezeigt.

   Beim Versuch einer Synchronisation innerhalb eines Buchdokumentes stürzt Indesign ohne Fehlermeldung ab.
   Dies gilt ebenso bei nachfolgenden Buchdokumenten

5. Everything on artboard goes to bitmap intermittently

   Running iD (15.1.3) on Windows 7 - Don't laugh this isn't my machine but the one I have to work on. grrrr!
   Every now and again the entire artboard contents and surrounds (not the UI), changes to low resolution resulting in something resembling a scene from the game Minecraft, fonts images imported vector graphics etc. This is only on inDesign, no other program, so it's not a system or graphics card error. The attached image shows up as all bitmapped but tin reality it's just the artboard that goes pear shaped. Is there a fix for this or is it a case of suck it up and do a total computer re-start as just an inDesign re-start doesn't rectify the problem?

7. Issues with MacOS custom keyboards and InDesign

   The users have InDesign V16.1 installed on macOS Big Sur (11.4).
   They use custom software keyboards (created with Ukelele) to type Native American language characters (Salish via IPA). They use custom fonts that have the required glyphs for the language. OpenType marks are used for composing characters. The fonts are both Unicode and OpenType compliant. Frequently a properly composed character will consist of a primary glyph (such as "K") followed by a combining glottal and a wsuperior. If each key of the custom software keyboard has only a single unicode code point assigned, everything works fine. However, if the custom software keyboard has more than one unicode code point assigned, then only the first unicode code point glyph is accepted and displayed by InDesign. This is consistent and repeatable in InDesign. With all other tested apps (Word, Pages, Mellel, OS Finder, etc) both the custom fonts and custom keyboards work fine (a single keypress, with multiple unicode code points assigned) displays all of the glyphs assigned to the keystroke.

8. Column rules generate overlapped lines in PDF

   InDesign 16.2 (Windows 10 and macOS Big Sur on M1 have the same behaviour).

   I have a text frame with common rules active.
   When I export a PDF (print) InDesign creates two overlapping lines in the exported PDF instead of a single line, to create the rule.
   If I export a PDF (interactive) from the same document, the line is not doubled and overlapped.

   I upload the resulting PDFs made with print and interactive.

   In some workflow, like laser engraving, this is a problem.

   Can you fix this in some way?
   Thanks

9. command and option keys stop working

   Several times a day my command and option keys stop working in Adobe products. Only logging out will briefly fix the problem.

   There doesn't seem to be any clear fixes for this online. Any ideas?

10. Unable to drag & drop images into Indesign 2021 Open File

    • Set-up a new document
    • Have added text and images as normal.
    • Command + D is successful when placing an image, however, drag & drop does nothing. No image shows in the thumbnail near the cursor either.

    This is an issue as it is much quicker to drag & drop than placing the images from different locations.

11. Multi-state objects not working correctly

    I'm having problems with multi state object not working as they should.
    Sometimes its fine others not.
    I've attached a video of the problem.

    It happens when you use buttons to change the state. It works for a while and gradually deteriorates. The state can show then you roll off the button and it reverts. As if a r'roll-off' state is in play. Eventually the multi-state target disappears altogether.

    Its happening in different documents and in Indesign 2020 and 2021.

    Colleagues don't seem to have problem so could need to reinstall. But wondered if you could shed any light on it.

    I've checked everything a hundred times. Nothing set up wrong.

12. Indesign CC Crashing when assigning character base style to a child style by script.

    Indesine crash evry time i try to assign base character style when the text in question have child style. So i have "Product" character style, and "Bold Product". Text field have Product style on it from get go. Then i use script to edit this field and after that i construct new string and put it in field. So I assign first part of content to field, use Bold Product style on it. Then second part the name of product and I want to assign Product style to it, indesigne crash evry time i try to do it. No matter how i try to assign this style, by whole tkst, by part of text, or by insertpoint. Only way to do it is to define a diffrent style based on Product, for example ProductScript. And it works as intended.

    This isint some crucial problem, but belive me, after 4h of tinkering with it is just... no comment.

14. table of contents very buggy

    i think i know how to use indesign cc's table of contents feature, but it doesn't seem to work as advertised, or demonstrated in numerous videos. i cannot get the revisions to the toc paragraph styles to effect changes in the toc itself. despite the revised and selected paragraph style showing the new redefined settings, the toc only changes what is highlighted (not the rest of the elements in that style) and then reverts back to the original display on update. will be faster to just design it as a text block, which i don't think is the point. anyone?

15. What if I could double click the application title bar to minimize a window into the dock?

    Dear Adobe,
    Double-clicking a title bar to minimize a window is Mac behavior that goes back to the first release of OS10 in 2001. It is based on an even older behavior from OS9 where double clicking a title bar would "windowshade" the window like a roller blind rolling up into itself.

    Apple and Adobe train us all the time to adapt to new technologies and interfaces. Some behaviors we learn are easy to shake off and adapt to the new ones, especially if we haven't done them for very long. As a creative professional who has obviously done this for a long time, I've learned to be flexible. But this one, the reflex is so second-nature to me. Double click the title bar, the window should minimize to the dock.  I still have this problem, Adobe, and I cuss a blue streak every time I double click the title bar in indesign and instead of minimizing, it mocks me and fills the screen! 

    Adobe please be consistent on these matters. Either return this functionality back to indesign and illustrator, or remove it from ALL the apps so users can move on. 

    Don't get me started on all the different ways each program resizes objects uniformly. Or zooms, for crying in a bucket. :)

    Your pal,
    Brant

17. Border is not extending when table comes

    I am using InDesign CC 2019

    Expected Result:
    While using InDesign Border Features to format box items, there is an option to Merge consecutive Border and Shading with same setting in paragraph style. This is working for text and Images. But when inline table comes in between, border is not extending for tables.

    Actual result
    I have attached screenshot of expected result and actual result for your quick reference.

19. Cannot place this file. Invalid PNG file

    In 15.0.3, my publication was print ready

    I updated to 15.1 as I normally would.

    In 15.1, particular .png files were missing. I tried to place the missing images as usual but got the error - Cannot place this file. Invalid PNG file'.

    I rolled back to 15.0.3 and am now able to place the self same files.

    Update bug?

20. Unable to kill find missing fonts background process

    If the preferences setting to automatically find missing fonts is set, there are three major issues:

    1/ The background process never times out,
    2/ The background process severely degrades InDesign performance for everything else, and
    3/ There is no way to manually kill that background process. If we could, then issues 1 and 2 would not be such problems. If the fonts aren't found, or the internet connection is hinky, or if the Adobe servers are under heavy load or having other issues, we could just kill that background process and then either try again later or design an workaround without those missing fonts.

    The ability to kill this background process is a glaring design gap. We should be able to kill it, or at least disable it for a document (like we can disable automatic preflight).
