Windows 15.0.3 broke Book TOC when exporting to EPUB; works in 15.0.2
Windows 10 15.0.3 broke Book TOC when exporting to EPUB; works in 15.0.2
Not only did 15.0.3 eliminate Book > Export to EPUB option of EPUB Version 2.0.1, it changed the Table of Contents to include duplicate entries linking to every PAGE within a chapter. The Book.epub file had a separate .xhtml file for every page in the book, rather than one .xhtml file per chapter and one TOC entry per chapter. This makes the Table of Contents useless.
Reverting InDesign back to 15.0.2 fixes the problem.
Here are the parameters I used to export the EPUB:

Crash: "Keep Lines Together" (All) and disabled "Allow Split Footnotes" crashes InDesign if there are footnotes in a table
100% reproducible on InDesign 15.0.2 on Windows 10.
Sample document for easy reproduction: https://www.dropbox.com/s/iirawdsvd27l95l/indesign%20crash.indd?dl=1Starting point:
1. I have a table containing some footnotes.
2. Footnotes are not allowed to be split.
3. The table (including footnotes) doesn't fit in the frame, so the last row jumps to the next frame.To crash InDesign:
1. Place the text marker in the paragraph containing the table.
2. Go to Keep Options.
3. Check "Keep Lines Togheter" and "All Lines in Paragraph".Result: InDesign immediately hangs and you have to force quit.
Please fix? Should be easy to track down the internal…

Paragraph shading not aligned in justified text when optical alignment is on
If optical margin alignment (story) is ON the paragraph shading doesn't align on the right margin of justified text. hyphens seem to push the edge of the shading out. This is in build 13.1.1 but is also reported in 15.0.0.155. I cannot update to the newest version without buying a new computer—so I won't be anytime soon or maybe ever. So I hope that the bug would get fixed retroactively. My original post is here: https://community.adobe.com/t5/indesign/paragraph-shading-text-width-not-justifying/m-p/10750103#M164426

Glyph substitution not working with certain Oriya and Bengali glyphs
The following words in cannot be reproduced in InDesign. It seems the glyph substitution is not working in about 1% of cases.

I am applying the World-Ready Composers.
I have tried copy+pasting the text from Word and also tried the Place command in InDesign.

Adding htmlItem then closing document crashes inDesign on Mac
We are developping a plugin for inDesign and while testing a new feature on a Mac we noticed that sometimes InDesign was crashing. We managed to reproduce this bug in a very simple indesign script that make inDesign crash 100% of the time and I'm looking for a way to get around this inDesign bug.
The crash occurs when we programatically add an htmlItem to a pageItem then close the document too quicky, It's only on Mac, doing that on windows works perfectly. The crash error seems to be a memory usage problem on inDesign's side.
Here is the script…

InDesign hangs while exporting to ICML
CC 2018 – ICML Export is hanging when trying to export.
See attached example file*, the text box highlighted on page 4 is what is causing the problem. In the export file produced (if this box is removed) the other boxes are incorrectly formatted.
- An .indd or .idml file was not allowed so unable to attach this but can provide if required.

False layer gets duplicated through context menu
If for example layer 1 is selected in the layers panel and layer 2 is right-clicked, the context menu for layer 2 appears. If you choose to duplicate the layer 2, the selected layer 1 gets duplicated. Deleting works as expected.

Workaround: Select the Layer that needs to be duplicated to avoid the issue.

text wrap detect edges
ID 13.1 x64, Win 7, AI 22.1 64 bit
Text wrap w/detect edges may not detect text in AI file, may not detect shapes well. Have AI file with graphic and text placed in anchored frame in ID doc. If set to wrap around shape, detect edges, text in ID doc runs through text in AI graphic. Also (noted in in forums ) text may not wrap around white or nearly white shapes in AI graphic.1 voteThanks for reporting the issue.
Is this an issue only in the latest/recent release? What was the experience in older versions of InDesign?Adobe InDesign team

Videos and buttons get cut in half when placed over a 2 page spread in Publish online and Fixed layout EPUB
When a video or button is placed across two pages on a spread, both gets cut in half, working separately on different pages. So, if video is played in Publish Online document or Fixed Layout EPUB, only half part is played.
Similarly with buttons, only half button gets clicked.1 vote -
Open Recent numbering goes from 1 to 9, then 0 and then repeats 1 to 9, 0.
When selecting File > Open Recent, and there are more than 9 items (I have it set to 20), the items are listed numerically from 1 to 9 and then 0. Then it repeats 1-9, 0. One would expect 1-9, 10, 11, 12, 13, etc.
Obviously not a showstopper, but just something to fix.

InDesign 2018 crashing when I go to linked endnote text
I'm working with linked endnotes in InDesign 2018 (version 13.1), but my file originated in InDesign 2015 (I skipped 2017). I have already saved the document as an InDesign 2018 file but seem to be having problems importing a document with linked endnotes.
I'm starting with an old InDesign file because I'm working on volume 2 of a multi-book series and want to maintain all my old styles. I don't know if that's relevant, but I have worked successfully placing linked endnotes from word in previous books already. In this one, the endnote references appear to have links but when…

[ID-4206993] InDesign crashes when exporting to PDF, but not to JPEG
I'm using InDesign 13.1 for a simple 12 page booklet (see attached)
First issue: ID was doing background work on a file for about 4 days and then ID crashed. Now whenever I open the program it asks me if I want to do "Automatic Recovery" for the file. If I click YES or CANCEL the program crashes. If I click NO the program stays open and I can continue to work. But if I go to export the 12 page booklet to PDF it crashes.
I have: (1) uninstalled and reinstalled ID; (2) tried to export the file to…

[ID-4250752][MAC]Page numbers cut-off in Page panel when viewing in Horizontal mode
Currently on Mac OS Big Sur using inDesign 16.1
When viewing the pages panel in horizontal view and the page count exceeds what the panel can hold the scroll bars appear but then the last row of pages seem to have their page numbers hidden behind the UI and are not visible no matter how much you move the scroll bars down.
I have seen this behavior since inDesign 15 on Mac OS Catalina.
