optical margin alignment
InDesign 19.0 (2024): Optical margin alignment does not work (well), contrary to the previous versions. The problem doesn not depend on a certain font, it is a general problem.

Indesign (Beta) only opens a copy and not the exact inddc, thus resulting to multiple inddc files instead of updating the original file.

Book-PDF pixelated
Hello Support Team,
I have been having an annoying InDesign issue for quite some time:
I have a total of four computers available (1x HomeOffce, 1x work, 2x from colleagues) on which InDesign is installed. In each case the same program version (version doesn't really matter in this case, but current on our systems is 19.0).
On ONE COMPUTER, since installing InDesign about 3/4 year ago, I have the problem that the PDF output of a book always produces pixelated graphics.
When I output single documents, the quality is correct, exclusively with the PDF output from a book it is…1 vote -

When I publish a document online from Indesign by activating text search, the related drop-down menu that contains this command at the bottom right of the web page, does not open correctly on iPads, both using Safari and Chrome, while on Android tablets everything works correctly. I kindly ask you to fix this bug, thank you

InDesign 18.5 saving/exporting/packaging/importing location behavior
The way Indesign navigates folders has become very inconsistent and is creating a lot of extra work. For the most part, they are not defined by the files themselves nor InDesign (historically it has been one of those two).
Now it is defined by the specific tool which is taking a lot of time extra navigating when switching between multiple projects or clients, and makes it very easy for files to end up in the wrong places. Below is a list of the how each tool is navigating.File Save As:

Packaging with Include PDF (Print) selected doesn't properly render .ai images
I have never been able to successfully use the "Include PDF" option when packaging files. I usually package, then export the pdf using my presets, then combine the files in the finder because the pdfs never come out correctly. It seems the problem is only with how it renders ai files. Color mode doesn't matter. The same thing happens whether or not I choose High Quality Print, Press Quality, PDFx1a, etc. Any solutions for this yet? It has been the case since the "Include PDF" feature was first released. Example has exported pdf on the left, and package generated pdf…

A problem about converting right-to-left text to the newest version
Hello,
I have been using Indesign v18.5 and created a lot of documents for a book in Hebrew and Arabic.
My paragraph styles have the property "Character Direction: Default" which, of course, organized my text as RTL for Hebrew and Arabic, and LTR for English text.
After converting the documents to the newest version (v19.0), some (and only some) of the punctuation marks (such as ".", "!", "?") and even some of the spaces, were placed in a wrong manner: to the right side of the text, instead of being placed to the left of the text as they are…1 vote -

InDesign 2024 — Personal workspace won’t display automatically anymore
Until now, the personal workspace used to display automatically when opening the files.
Instead of the personal workspace, InDesign now displays the workspace Essentials.
Yesterday, I have been told by the Technical Support that this feature has been removed.
According to the information I have received, it is not possible anymore to choose the workspace that will be displayed.
This is absolute nonsense since it means:
1. a loss of time — particularly when working on multiple files;
2. a huge loss in the customization possibilities.PLEASE RESTORE THIS FEATURE!

Share for Review has ISSUES
I have been using the Share for Review feature for almost two years now for my employer to review documents that I am creating for them. I use it almost daily and never had any issues until the updates that came a month or two ago.
Since the Share for Review feature was updated I can...
No longer copy text from the comments that are made to paste into my document. This is troublesome because I am generally laying out curriculum that has been written and there is constant text edits being made during our review process, so I was…

Left toolbar missing Screen Mode selector
When I use InDesign some times the Screen Mode selector is missing from the left Toolbar. The only fix is to change the Workspace to another and then back to the original workspace. The first image is the missing Screen Mode selector and the second image is how it should look. This happens on macOS Monterey (12) and macOS Ventura (13) and in both InDesign 19.0 and the previous InDesign 18.5.

Selecting text in table inside Story Editor
InDesign 19.0
When I try to select text in a table using Story Editor, the mouse selects text starting one character to the right from where I click. This starts in the 2nd row of text. For each row below that, the selection starts one additional character to the right.
For example, I have a table with 5 rows and each row has the text 'ABCDEFG'. If I try and select the letter 'A' on row 2 by clicking at the start of the text and dragging to the right, the selected text will skip the letter 'A' and start…

CUSTOM URLS FOR ADOBE PUBLISH ONLINE BROCHURES
<> Custom URL, so it looks more professional to clients rather than it saying "Ind.Adobe" with loads of numbers following it.
<> While on the subject of the URL, it would be fantastic if we could customise the cover photo/thumbnail rather than it showing the adobe logo, I'd like to show my brands logo. It would be a great feature for when we send the link in WhatsApp

Broken/missing assignments can't be deleted or fixed
I've opened an InDesign document from earlier this year (created in an InDesign 2023 version). The document contains many incopy assignments - some of which are now missing. It will let me delete most of the missing assignments (no longer needed anyway) but a selection of them will not delete at all, and show the pencil icon that says 'in use by me' when i hover over, despite having literally just opened the file and not clicked into anything.
This happens when any of my team open the file (we use Microsoft Share Point to access files). I can't right…

PROBLEME [Lecture seule]
Bonjour, J'ai un problème depuis les mises à jour de InDesign 2023 et 2024, presque à chaque fois que j'ouvre un fichier Indd, il s'ouvre en "Lecture seule"...
Alors que je n'ai rien changé par rapport à avant, donc ça semble être lié à un problème lié à InDesign plutôt qu'à l'ordinateur. Je suis donc obligé très souvent soit de fermer le fichier et le rouvrir ou l'enregistrer sous une nouvelle version pour pouvoir faire des modifications... Pour info ce problème persiste sur tout types de fichier et de version InDesign...
Pourriez-vous m'aider et avez-vous déjà eu le problème ? …1 vote
