Indesign is having difficulty reading some unsaved changes in 'doc_name'
After update to indesign version 16.2.1.102 (macOS Catalina version 10.15.7), indesign is asking to repair document and won't save without a 'save as'. The doc can then be saved, but closing and reopening the doc results in having to go through the whole process again!

freezing in Indesign version 16.2.1
Hi all
I was working on a very important file yesterday morning using Indesign version 16.2.1 on PC window 10 and was linking images to the file when my indesign just froze. I've been having issues since where it takes for ever if at all to open any indesign file. At one stage it didn't recover my file so a message came up to ask if I wanted to recovery it....what ever option I chose I was left with Indesign unable to still function properly. (I had also renamed files incase the file was corrupt) Also noticed when force quiting…

Cross references rendered to big/wrong line break
Text with cross references isn't rendered correctly. The line break is triggered far to early (see IDML and PNG) image.
The line break works with the Adobe World-Ready Composers but not with the Classic Composers.
I cannot use the World-Ready Composers because of the justified nonbreaking space see https://indesign.uservoice.com/forums/601180-adobe-indesign-bugs/suggestions/41793187-bug-since-cs6-nonbreaking-space-s-issue-wit
A test IDML file can be downloade here: https://cloud.publishingx.de/s/mMMkbxidwTiTfKR
Please fix both bugs!

Hairlines/artifacts randomly appearing on screen
1) InDesign 16.1 (and othre versions)
2) Place an image or object. Apply a drop shadow. Pan/scroll, zoom, enable or dissable output preview
3) Consistent rendering.
4) Glitches of bands of light or dark pixels may appear over images, in transparencies and effects. These may come and go depending on resolution preview mode, zoom and/or if overprint preview is rendered. (The lines are similar to tiling lines in PDFx1a in that they are rendering glitches presumably caused by floating point calculations)
See the thread https://community.adobe.com/t5/indesign/lines-appearing-in-effects-shadow-amp-gradient/m-p/11912229#M419035

Character Styles do not honor symbols
I can not use the Find/Replace feature to globally assign a character style to a symbol (+, *, etc.). Tech Supp tells me only text can accept the character style assignment. It would be very helpful if you could fix this. I had pages of graduates to assign honors levels to using symbols and mosta of them had to be handled manually

InDesign 16.1 menu unclickable. Always shows hour glass cursor on Windows
Hi,
Starting today morning I am facing issues in accessing menu items on my InDesign 2021 16.1 on Windows. The application cursor is the wait cursor mode and clicking on any menu item does not have any effect. Even keyboard can't be used to select any menu items. However, I can open a new document using "Create new" button as shown.
I can't understand what's the issue and how to resolve. FYI, I have InDesign 2015 Release and Debug versions installed on this machine
Please advice.

Vertical lines occur on the right side of the page when exporting to JPEG
I'm experiencing issues when exporting my INDD-file to JPEG. It seems like the export process adds a thin, black line to the right side of the document that is not supposed to be there. Worked with InDesign for many years and never experienced anything like it, must be a bug. You don't notice this effect if you'll just use the image to upload it towards a transparent background or look at it on the screen.
However, I'm designing posters and when sending these exported JPEGS to my printing house, they will add a frame of one additional centimetre for the…

endnotes hyperlinks
Endnote hyperlinks are not working both ways.
(1) I can go from text to the endnote by clicking on the endnote number in the text.
(2) However, I can not go back to the text from the endnote by clicking on the endnote number. This is because the endnote number has been modified - font type, font size, and indents.3 votes -

I copy text from a google doc / external file
I insert text into existing connected text frame with the text spreading over both frames-> indesign crashes
(restarting indesign did not help. restarting the mac did not help. wirting text by hand without copying works. copying text within the document works.)

ID will crash on awake (MacOS)
Adobe InDesign, for the last two, three versions (current 16.2.1), will crash 100% of the time when the Mac comes back from sleep mode. I'm running MacOS 10.15.7 on two separate Macs (iMac 2020 and an over Mac Book Pro), both with plenty or RAM, and this will happen 100% of the time on both systems. I've reported this several times but when you issue a new update to "fix bugs" this one persists.
