Disappearing text when I type the character ,,T"
So, I have an InDesign file, which is a brandbook for a partner. Few paragraph styles and some items, nothing secial. I use Prompt (Google font) installed on my system. As soon as I hit (smallcaps) T when writing the text OR becomes unvisible or it breakes to the basic paragraph style AND it wont display the T. IF I copy and paste the text from outside of InDesign then it displays T. And the All Caps T works as well. This bugg is really annoying. Could you look into this issue?

Compound path stroke incorrect
InDesign version 16.1 macOS. Haven't tested Windows, could be same.
Steps to reproduce:
In a new document, create a box.
Create a second, smaller box, inside the first box.
Select both and create a compound path (Object menu, Paths, Create Compound Path).
Select the object.
Give it a large stroke, for example, 10 points.
Set align stroke to outside shape.
Result: smaller, inner box (the "hole") has the stoke going same direction as larger box, when it should be reversed, going "outward" (toward the hole) instead of into the shape.1 vote -
Library panel not registering licensed images
Hi, for a while now the Library panel does not register when I license an image from Adobe Stock. I search for an image and place a watermarked thumbnail into the document (InDesign, Illustrator or Photoshop). When the draft is approved I click on the license image icon on the image in the Library (or on the thumbnail image in the document) and the license process happens but the library does to update to show the licensed image. I have to go to Adobe stock in a web browser, find the specific library and download the image manually. The cloud…

Exported PDF closes automatically
Since updating to InDesign 16.2 the Export PDF function with "View PDF after exporting" option checked does open the pdf in Preview (macOS Big Sur 11.2.3) but it closes it automatically before the user can interact with it.

Thick-thin rule appears backwards in counters of a compound path
When the thick-thin rule style (or another that’s similarly asymmetrical) is applied to a compound path, the thick part is the outermost toward the outside of the shape, but not the innermost toward the holes or counters as one would expect. (I don’t recall seeing this in earlier versions, but I don’t use these rule styles very often.) To make the insides match (mirror) the outsides I have to stack copies of the object, each with its own simple rule.
Using v16.1 on MacOS v10.15.7.
P.S. Not sure what category this belongs in—sorry if it’s out of place.

Scrolling redraw errors
Scrolling quickly thru a document created for dummying a magazine, and the screen did not redraw parts of the document correctly. Happened twice before reporting. Image shows what I was doing at the time and what was open. (Edison Mail, Acrobat Pro DC, and InDesign Beta)

Indesign freezes and/or crashes when opening hyperlinks panel
Indesign freezes and/or crashes when opening hyperlinks panel. It does usually eventually unfreeze but this can take up to 20+ minutes. I'm running Indesign 2021 Creative Cloud on a Mac, release 16.1.
- Open a document with existing links
- Click on the hyperlinks panel
- Freezes
- Either I force quit or it unfreezes, depending on how long it's been frozen.

Place dialog slow to refresh file list
If you save an image or two from Photoshop, then go back to InDesign and choose Place... the file list in the Place dialog box takes a few seconds to update before you can see them. This is despite the fact that those image files are fully saved and showing in the Finder.

Ralentissements constants - latence
Application version = InDesign 16.1
Ordinateur = Macbook Pro avec puce M1Steps to reproduce the issues
Le bug est que à tout moment, pendant que je suis entrain d'écrire, en train d'intégrer une image.. sans crier gare, InDesign fige complètement et m'empêche de faire quoi que ce soit d'autre jusqu'à ce qu'il dégèle.
Quelques fois, ça se produit peu, et à d'autres occasions, c'est sans arrêts, je veux dire aux 5 - 10 secondes. C'est insoutenable en contexte de production.Expected results
Je m'attends évidemment à ce que je puisse faire mon travail sans interruptions constantes et aussi, en…1 vote -

Impossible to type the dimensions of a document
When you want to personalize your own dimension on a document, you cannot just click on the sizes and enter the number, you have to put the cursor, then errase and then write, it is not convenient at all !

Indesign exporting PNG, colours look off
Trying to export some PNGs with RGB colour for web but every time I export the colours look CMYK. Had no issues yesterday, haven't tweaked with any settings since. I saw they fixed the yellow streak bug but maybe now this is a new issue. Anyone else?
Left, what it should look like. Right, what it keeps exporting as.
