Multiple PDF export
Hi,
I have a 2020 6 core iMac with 32GB RAM and I was used to do multiple exports to PDF at one time ... I could open up to 4 files and run exports on them and those exports ran at the same time ... more than 4 simultaneous exports did not work, but i was fine with 4 :)
Today I noticed it does not work anymore for me? What happend? I have the latest MacOS 12.1 Monterey and also the latest InDesign ...
I run the first export and the others are queuing...1 vote -
text
My text changes to alternating capital and lower case letters throughout all typed words. It does not change if I have caps lock on the keyboard but will be all caps if I select it on the menu bar. But it still shows red spelling errors with asking to add the work to the dictionary. It is shown in alternating caps/lower case letters there too.

Cannot print with trapping turned on
After installing the newest updated version of InDesign today whenever I attempt to print a two color job as separations with the trapping turned on I get a message stating "the engine failed to output due to an unknown error." It's kind of important to have the trapping on with tight registration print jobs.

search and replace clipboard contents
I cannot do a document-wide search and replace with clipboard-contents (formatted), when using Change All. When I attempt to replace any text with the clipboard-contents (GREP: ~c), it goes through the document, seemingly highlighting and replacing the text, but doesn't in fact change anything. It works when I do the exact search and replace string, but only using Find-and-change, and not when using Change All. Going through each instance (500+) one-by-one would take ages. Please fix the document-wide, Change All search-and-replace with clipboard-contents (formatted).

Bug affichage éléments graphiques
Bonjour. Je rencontre un bug d'affichage à l'export avec Publish Online. (cf pj) Je ne sais pour quelle raison sur toutes mes publications, le graphisme est découpé de façon étrange une fois publié, alors que sur le PDF tout est OK... c'est très embêtant car les usagers pensent qu'il y a un problème sur les documents alors que ce n'est pas le cas... Je rentre ce problème depuis plusieurs versions d'InDesign.

Table formats don't work at all
ID 2019 - 2021
1. Create a table format with table frame 1 pt and apply to a table without stroke - no change.
2. Create a cell format with 1 pt stroke, nest in the table format and apply - no change. See video.
3. Apply the cell format to a cell - at first no change. You must manually use the button that removes deviations. See the other video.Conclusion: neither table formats nor cell formats correctly override the current formatting of a table.

Menu not appearing when clicking toolbar hamburger button
I got the problem that the menu that should appear when you click on an "hamburger" button in the top right corner of a toolbar doesn't appear.
This happens on a second screen when you got more than one screen/monitor, and the main screen has higher resolution than the second one. It also only happens to toolbars that are positioned near the bottom edge of the second screen and where the menu height is larger than the distance between the "hamburger" button and the bottom edge of the screen.2 votes -

Stalling
Within the last couple weeks, Indesign has been acting very glitchy for me. I've never had these problems before, but when I open a document the application seems to stall for a bit. This is happening in all my documents (so it isn't one file that is the issue). Indesign doesn't ever crash, but seems to get hung up within the first couple minutes of use.

Verctorisation
La vectorisation du texte ne fonctionne plus, impossible de dissocier les lettres d'un même mot comme avant !
Exemple : Le mot "Good" ne peut plus être séparé en "G "o" "o" "d".

My Adobe Indesign updated to 2022, but my User Interface font is very small and I can't increase the size. The choice to increase UI size is greyed out (see attached screen shot). Any ideas on the issue?

Spell Checker
Hello
I have a problem with spell checking in Indesing. The issue is that it does not correct words that are wrongly accented, for example, in Spanish, the word "como" when it should have an accent or the word "mas" when it should have an accent.
Let me explain:
The sentence (always in Spanish): ¿como te va la vida? should be written like this: ¿cómo te va la vida? and when I run the spell checker it does not detect the word "como", since it should have an accent. However, if I write ¿como te va la bida? it does…1 vote -

Paste Discretionary Line Break Malfunction
The discretionary break character is an awesome addition. But I think it came with a bug:
When typesetting text that contains URLs, I use a GREP search to find all URL strings in order to globally apply a character style with Language set to [No Language] in order to suppress any auto-hyphenation.
I then use some search-replaces to globally insert discretionary breaks in places I don't mind URLs breaking, such as preceding periods and hard hyphens. This technique can still leave too-loose or too-tight letter-spacing when URLs contain long unbroken letter strings, and in those cases I insert discretionary line…

cannot scroll to preview corner options
InDesign 16.3 CC download, Win64: In previous versions of InDesign I could select a text or image box, open the 'corner options' drop-down list, and arrow/scroll through the options to preview the effect of each on the selected box. In InDesign CC, I can arrow through the list but no previews are shown on the selected box. Instead, it takes 12 clicks to re-open and select each of the six options. I have posted this problem in the community, with responses from Bill Silbert and Steve Werner. They concur that it's an InDesign/Windows Bug.

InDesign is still unusably slow
Despite many many threads about this, I cannot find an answer that solves this issue. I am getting a spinning wheel on almost every action I perform in InDesign. It spins for around 10 seconds and then is good until I do anything else. It is incredibly frustrating.
I am running InDesign 16.3.2 a part of Adobe CC 2021.
I am on a 2018 MacBook Pro, running Big Sur 11.4
32 GB Ram
2.9GHz i9 ProcessorI have tried a bunch of 'answers' from previous threads but none seem to work. Please help!
