1. Clipped items lose their clip when printed

   InDesign files with clipped images saved as a PDF look fine in Acrobat. Clip is lost when sending file to the rip. This causes items to overlap

2. Type shortcut key (t) flips back to previous tool after a second

   In InDesign 2021 (16.0) when I press t to get my text tool, the cursor changes to the text tool for about 1 second, then flips back to the previous tool it was on.
   This seems to be only with the text tool (t); I can change to other tools without a problem

4. IDS on Windows: Extreme slowness in ExtendScript execution via SOAP connection (with weird workaround)

   SETUP

   • IDS Server 14.0.3.433 running on Windows Server 2019 (build 17763.864)

   • Local connection using "sampleclient.exe"

   • Two test scripts (attached):
     Slow script: "adobe-ids-win-slow.js" (approx 275 KB in size)
     Fast script: "adobe-ids-win-fast.js" (approx 275 KB in size)

   PROBLEM

   There are two scripts to compare. They are both of identical size, does nothing but declare a variable and return a string value. However, while execution of one of the scripts take a fraction of a second, the other script typically runs for > 10 seconds before completing.

   TESTS AND OBSERVATIONS

   1) This takes excessive time to run (typically 13 seconds on my test machine):

      C:\Users\Administrator\Desktop>"c:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe InDesign CC Server 2019\sampleclient.exe" -host localhost:8190 c:\Users\Administrator\Desktop\adobe-ids-win-slow.js
      Script result (std__string): Done
   

   2) This completes quickly (typically in less than 0.1 seconds):

      C:\Users\Administrator\Desktop>"c:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe InDesign CC Server 2019\sampleclient.exe" -host localhost:8190 c:\Users\Administrator\Desktop\adobe-ids-win-fast.js
      Script result (std__string): Done
   

   3) Adding the "-server" flag to the slow test will make it run fast, since the script isn't passed via SOAP but instead evaluated directly from local disk. This tells me the parsing of the ExtendScript statements isn't slow in itself so the difference seems to lie in the SOAP request handling.

   4) Now a really weird part: removing the very first space (before the comment on line 1) in "adobe-ids-win-slow.js" makes it run almost as fast as the fast script when repeating test 1) above. It turns out that "adobe-ids-win-slow.js" MUST start with a /* */-style comment in the very first byte to run fast; adding the space back, or removing the comment completely, makes it evaluate slowly again. I've tried other tokens such as semicolon, //-style comment, curly brackets etc but none had the same effect.

   5) In contrast to the change in 4), adding spaces before the comment, or removing the comment entirely, from "adobe-ids-win-fast.js" makes no difference in its evaluation performance.

   6) Another strange discrepancy is that even when "adobe-ids-win-slow.js" is modified to run fast using the change described in 4) above, the speed is still slower than the "adobe-ids-win-fast.js" variant. They both declare a string of same length but the data INSIDE the string is different, but while "adobe-ids-win-fast.js" completes in < 0.1 seconds the modified "adobe-ids-win-slow.js" takes closer to a full second.

   7) All of the tests above run at good speed (less than a second) when connecting to IDS 14.0.2.324 on macOS (tested with Catalina 10.15.7). The minor difference in speed between the slow and fast scripts seen in 6) is still present though, but is again eliminated if the "-server" option is used.

   OTHER COMMENTS

   I tried running Microsoft's Windows Performance Analyzer to capture what the slow IDS is doing during the long wait. I found that the overhead is located in calls from AFL (Adobe File Library) to the NT kernel, but without debug symbols I couldn't pinpoint it in more detail. My totally unconfirmed suspicion is that gSOAP/2.7 (as returned in the "Server" HTTP header in IDS connections) is applying some content sniffing to detect encoding, data format or other properties of the inlined script, but why this would only take place on Windows is a mystery, and it's also odd that the initial code comment would short-circuit this and improve performance dramatically.

   I've also tried disabling various Windows Security settings (Firewall, Virus & Threat Protection, Exploit Protection etc) in case that was interfering with network I/O but I've not found any improvement in that area.

   The slowness is not inherent in "sampleclient.exe" either since the root problem was first observed using our own HTTP client, as was the weird workaround of adding the comment string. I'm just using "sampleclient.exe" here to set up a self-contained test case.

   SETUP

   • IDS Server 14.0.3.433 running on Windows Server 2019 (build 17763.864)

   • Local connection using "sampleclient.exe"

   • Two test scripts (attached):
     Slow script: "adobe-ids-win-slow.js" (approx 275 KB in size)
     Fast script: "adobe-ids-win-fast.js" (approx 275 KB in size)

   PROBLEM

5. CMYK images displaying like RGB (despite CMYK display settings) when using GPU

   When using GPU - does not display images in CMYK, but always only in RGB (even if you select transparent filling space CMYK)

   It only works when switching to CPU usage

   It's a bit anoying. Working with CPU is much slower, especially with big CMYK pictures....

   My setting:

   I Mac 5K / late 2019 / Radeon Pro 580X
   Catalina Mac OS 10.15.7

8. Line not staying put

   Hi all,

   I updated InDesign this morning to the latest version. However, I can't get lines to stay put. I click on the line tool, drag the cursor across to where I want it. Then click on the selection tool and click somewhere else in the document and the line disappears. I can't get the line to stay in the document not can I add a second line - any ideas on what the issue is?

11. Option-Click/Drag to duplicate spread does not work anymore with MacOS 11.0.1 update

    1. InDesign 15.1.3
    2. To Duplicate Spreads in Pages Panel — Option-Click/Drag to duplicate spread does not work anymore with MacOS 11.0.1 update. It used to with previous MacOS.
    3. Expected Result: the grab hand would have a plus sign, then duplicate spread.
    4. Actual Result: The grab hand operates as "Move" not "Duplicate".

    Right/Click Duplicate does, however (but who has that much time? : )

    Thank you

13. Bug with InDesign 16 Word and Textedit

    I noticed a huge performance bug.

    When I am working on a book with many pages and switch to an app like Word or Textedit and then back to InDesign, I get a beach ball for 30–60s. Only in InDesign. When I quit Word or Textedit, the beach ball disappears and InDesign runs normal again.
    Restart eg. doesn't help!

15. Text Frame Issues

    Can't find this so hopefully this is new, but every time I nudge a text box with my arrow keys it ends up somehow shrinking the box or something because I get an arrow saying there's text outside the frame. It's fine... I nudge it once with the arrow key and I get the little red error box in the corner.

17. Smart guides not working at all

    Snap to grid and smart guides or any function where cursor automatically snaps to edge, corner, or center point is not working. I am currently using version 16.0. I have restarted the program 5 times. All of these features are check marked and turned on despite the features not working at all.

    I will not work on my project because of this issue. I need to rely on the precise support of smart guides and snap to guides in order to do what I have to do. I'm very disappointed with this bug and upset I'm set back so much time. I spend a lot on this software. I'm providing pictures to show the functions are turned on but the cursor does not turn pink and snap to center of circle or edge.

    I really need this fixed.

20. Interactive pdf export adds %0D to the end of links

    InDesign keeps adding %0D%0D to the end of my hyperlinks. I had searched this topic and found a few other forums with a similar problem. I tried other people's suggestions of making sure no spaces or returns were at the end or adding a / to the end of the link, but still nothing worked. I finally gave up on InDesign and just manually added the links in Acrobat after exporting. But that is not a good solution. Please fix this Adobe. My version is 16.0.
